VI. SET-UP
SETTING SERIAL ADDRESSES
The controller will monitor up to 16 channels, with each channel having its own address. The SW2 switch,
located on the Display PCB inside the door of the controller, sets the base address for channel 1. See Figure 2-4:
SW2 on the Display PCB. The addresses for the remaining channels (if there is more than one) will automatically
be set in sequential order. For example, if the controller is monitoring 8 transducers and SW2 is set for address
8, channel 1 will be address 8, channel 2 will be address 9, channel 3 will be address 10, etc. The SonoTracker
Series controller supports a total of 256 addresses (range of 0-255). Setting the starting address is done by
positioning the rocker-arm switches (S1 - S8) on SW2 to the binary equivalent of the address number. Figure 3-5:
Address Selections shows how the switches are set in binary sequence for the first 16 (0 - 15) and last two (254
and 255) addresses. The SonoTracker Series controller counts a block of eight serial addresses for each Scanner
PCB in the controller, even if you do not enable all channels on the Scanner PCB. If any math channels are
enabled, the math channel serial addresses begin after the block of monitoring channel addresses.
EXAMPLE:
The SonoTracker Series controller has one Scanner PCB, with a total capacity of 8 monitoring channels, but you
enable only 7 monitoring channels. You enable channel 9, the first available math channel. You set the base serial
address to 0. The serial addresses are:
•
Addresses 0 through 6 for the monitoring channels
•
Address 8 for the math channel
Note: Address 7 is not being used for the SonoTracker Series controller.
Note: Setting the addressing dipswitch is not required unless you are using the serial port.
