the “enter” button is pressed, the user enters the procedure for addressing the terminals in the network, and
the screen shown in the figure appears.
Terminal config
Press ENTER
to continue
After pressing the “enter” button, the screen shown in the next figure appears.
P:01 Adr Priv/Shared
Trm1 17 Pr
Trm2 None –
Trm3 None – Ok?N
P:
indicates the address of the connected board.
Addr:
indicates the column where the terminal addresses must be selected.
Priv/Shared: indicates the column where whether the terminal will be private or shared must be selected.
Trm1-2-3:
these are the terminals to be configured.
None:
this is where the address of the terminal to be managed must be selected using the arrows.
After selecting the address of the terminal, press the “confirm arrow” or “enter” button,
according to whether it is a six-button or fifteen-button terminal, to go to the next field.
--:
for each addressed terminal, indicate whether it is private “Pr” or shared “Sh” in the fields of
this column. Select with the arrows and confirm with the "enter" button.
Ok?N:
after completing the selection, when the cursor is positioned under letter "N" it will be
changed to "Y" using the arrows. The configuration is confirmed by pressing the "enter"
button.
When the “confirm arrow” button is pressed, the cursor moves onto the field for setting the address of the first
terminal “adr” and “trm1”.
For uniformity of use of the addresses and with what was previously set in the address of the terminal, the value
to be entered is “17”.
After confirming assignation of the terminal to address “17” through the “confirm arrow” button, for displaying
the I/O board with address “1”, the cursor will move under the column in which the characteristic of the terminal
will be assigned.
On confirming with the “confirm arrow” button, the cursor moves into the second line for configuration of a
possible second terminal.
As the software gives the possibility of having several units connected together and therefore assignation of
the “Pr” or “Sh” characteristic, that is, display of the parameters of the board with address “1”, this can also be
carried out from a possible shared terminal.
If there are no other terminals, use the “confirm” arrow button to go through all the fields provided without
changing them - “None” and “—” - up to the last field “Ok?No” where, using the “arrow up” or the “arrow down”
buttons, option “No” must be converted to “Yes” in order to confirm the selections you have made.
After setting “Yes”, confirm with the “confirm arrow” button, and the software will automatically exit the procedure
for configuring the terminals in the network.
Starting the procedure for configuring the terminals in the network through a fifteen-button terminal is slightly
different.
The command for entering the procedure is the same as for the six-button terminal, that is, pressing the “arrow
up”, “arrow down” and “enter” buttons at the same time. After five seconds, the screen shown in the figure will
appear.
Terminal Adr: 17
I/O Board Adr: 1
The address of the terminal set through the microswitches appears in the first line.
The address of the connected I/O board appears in the second line.
With the adopted assignation of addresses, the values that should appear are those shown in the figure.
After confirming with the “enter” button, the screen shown in the figure appears.
