It is highly recommended to use the same type and model of controller for master and remote display.
Only in such case is assured the proper function of all buttons, LED diods and display. Another
combinations of HW types and models from Master controller and remote display are neither
supported nor tested
IL-NT RD software installation
The IL-NT-RD remote display firmware is installed in the same way as any other InteliDrive firmware
using LiteEdit. Please see LiteEdit Reference guide for details about upgrading firmware. IL-NT-RD
consists only firmware, not an archive.
However when there is IL-NT-RD firmware installed in the controller the procedure to install back the
original standard firmware is following:
Open any type of online connection.
DDE server will try to open the connection, but it will fail and write red error message in the
status bar.
In this moment go to
C
ONTROLLER
->
P
ROGRAMMING AND CLONING
->
P
ROGRAMMING
and
select
proper
firmware you want program to the controller. Choosing the wrong type of
firmware may result in non-functional controller.
Press "OK" button to programm the firmware to the controller.
It may be required to switch off power supply of the controllers, close the boot jumper and
switch on controller again. Follow the information windows accordingly.
After programming is finished (it may be required to power off controller, open the boot jumper
and power it on again) open configuration window and perform the configuration process
manually. There is no compatibility of the configuration between different firmware versions.
In some cases the "wrong setpoints" message can occur in the DDE server status line and
controller is blocked showing "Init" state. Use
C
ONTROLLER
->
R
ESET FROM
I
NIT STATE
menu
item to put the controller to normal operation. Be sure you have checked all setpoints before.
CAUTION!
Check the statistic value "Engine hours" after firmware upgrade. Change of statistical values if
necessary is possible only by LiteEdit software (password is required).
IL-NT-RD Wiring
IL-NT-RD can be connected to InteliDrive Lite controller via RS232 or RS485 communication line. It is
possible to connect only up to two remote displays to one master controller, if they are using different
communication COMs. It is not supported to connect two or more remote displays to one
communication line, eg. RS485. It is possible to monitor only one master controller from one remote
display at the time.
Connection proces:
Remote display after power on automaticaly starts to search for any master controller connected. It
starts to search on COM1 from master controllers address 1 to 32 and later on COM2 from address 1
to 32. Remote display tries two communication speeds 38400 bps and 56000bps.
During this process is displayed text “Detecting…” on screen and progress bar below counts from 0 to
100%. This process takes approx. 10-15 seconds. Than is 5 seconds pause and process continues
again until compatible master controller is found.
Not supported types of controllers, not supported application, or controllers that are not properly
comunicating are skipped during the search.
Controller type selection:
IL-NT-RD automatically detects controller type.
