For multiple base units connected to the keypad, the use of SGY-011, CBL-036 and
CBL-035 (terminator) is highly recommended. See diagram below.
Operation
Once connected to the agility
TM
host unit/s, menu structures and programming are the
same as detailed in the agility
TM
manuals MAN-AGY-001 and MAN-AGY-002 (both may
be downloaded from www.fairford.co.uk).
However, specific steps must be taken to connect the Remote Keypad to one or more
agility
TM
host units.
Initial Power-Up

TM
unit/s and the remote keypad have the default Modbus transmission
parameters set,
and the host unit is powered and has Keypad power set to ‘on’, the
keypad will automatically communicate with the host. The following status screen will
be seen:
