3.
4.1 Mechanically mount
the ACU19V2.
4.
4.2 Connect the ACU
to the antenna (position encoders, motor driver interface). Finally
connect the mains power supply and the Ethernet network.
5. Start up the system and set the parameters as described below.
6. As last step enable the drive interface and start them up as described below.
Before you can operate the sat-nms ACU19V2, you need to set the ACU's IP address. There is a
special configuration program on the documentation CD shipping with the ACU for this purpose.
We recommend to configure the ACU's TCP/IP settings before you install the sat-nms ACU19V2
at it's final place. To configure the ACU, the following equipment is required:
The sat-nms ACU19V2 itself.
Mains power at connector J12.
A Computer running a Microsoft Windows operating system equipped with CD-ROM drive
and Ethernet network card.
A CAT5 crossover network cable or an Ethernet hub and standard network cables to
connect the ACU and the computer.
The CD-ROM shipping with the sat-nms ACU19V2.
Setting the ACU's IP parameters now is easily done within a few minutes.
1. First install a network cable between the ACU and your computer. If you have a crossover
cable available, this is very easy: simply put the cable into the network connectors of
computer and ACU. Without a crossover cable, you need to connect both, the computer and
the ACU to the same network hub using two standard network cables. It is essential, that the
computer and the ACU are connected to the same network segment, the configuration
program is not able to find the ACU through routers or network switches.
2. Now power on your computer and connect the ACU19V2 to the Mains supply (J12).
3. Insert the CD-ROM into the computer's drive and inspect it's contents through the 'My
Computer' icon on your desktop. Double-click to the 'ChipTool.exe' program in the 'ChipTool'
directory.
4. When the ChipTool program is running, the program shows a list containing at least one
entry describing the actual network parameters of the sat-nms ACU19V2.
5. The serial number of the core module shown in the first column of the list. If the list stays
