2. Set the APT’s Mode Select switch.

• On an ARC156 CMnet, use the TTL 

setting.

• On a legacy CMnet, use the 485 setting.

3. Connect the Access port of the APT to the 

Access port of the module.

4. In SuperVision, define the connection type 

on the Connections page. See Table 1.

Formatting the Module

If you are unable to communicate with a 
module, you can, as a last resort, manually 
format the module to try to restore 
communication. Formatting the module 
erases all memory, so you need to transfer 
memory back to the module once it is 
formatted.

1. Turn the module’s power off.

2. Make sure the module is addressed 

correctly.

3. Press and hold the Format button (see 

Figure 2 on page 3 for location).

4. While continuing to hold the Format 

button, turn the module’s power on.

5. Continue to hold the button until the Error 

LED flashes three times in sync with the 
Run LED.

6. Release the Format button. 

7. Transfer memory to the module. Refer to 

“Transferring Memory” on page 6.

LEDs

The UNI/59 module has LED indicators to 
show the status of certain functions. Table 
explains the Run and Error LED signals in 
detail to assist troubleshooting.

Power - indicates power is being supplied to 
the module.

CMnet Tx - lights when the module transmits 
data over the CMnet.

CMnet Rx - lights when the module receives 
data from the CMnet.

Unet receive - lights when the module 
receives data from the Unet.

Unet transmit - lights when the module 
transmits data to the Unet.

Diag receive - lights when the Diag Port 
receives data.

Diag transmit - lights when the Diag Port 
transmits data.
