Dual Hand Terminal
The ADTS553 and ADTS554 can be operated with two hand terminals (either ADTS TOUCH or
ADTS TOUCH-ER units). Only one of the units (the ‘Master’) can control the ADTS. The second unit
(the ‘Slave’) operates as a display when the Master is connected. The hand terminals can be
connected to the controller in three ways:
• Docked (sitting on top of the unit, on the docking connector)
• Via Umbilical Cable
• Via Bluetooth wireless connection.
The allocation of Master and Slave status when two hand terminals are used is shown in the
following table:
If one of the hand terminals is connected via Bluetooth, this will always be the Master, and the
second unit (either umbilical or docked) will be the Slave. All control parameters and ADTS setting
entry shall be disabled on the slave unit. In the event that the Master communication is lost, the
slave shall become the master until such time as the link is re-established. The Slave unit can be
distinguished from the Master visually, as it includes a “REMOTE” banner on the display at all
times when it is in Slave mode:
