communications.
Channel Identification
System Discovery
Once the HI 6600 Series Modular Sensor System is physically installed, connected and powered, a discovery process is
required to allow the Hardy Gateway Module to identify other modules connected to the system. HardyNet is the
communication protocol that serves as a backplane to the system; distributing data, control and power to between
modules.
This discovery process can be initiated in a number of ways and should be used each time the overall system is changed;
for example removing a module from the system or adding a new module to the system.
The discovery process enables the Gateway Module to identify and track changes of other modules present on HardyNet.
The discovery process is initiated manually by selecting START DISCOVERY under the HardyNet sub-menu of the HI
6600 Gateway Module.
Discovered Modules are added to a list that is saved in non-volatile memory of the Gateway Module. The discovery
process is designed to only add units that are not already saved in memory. If a Module has been physically removed or
disconnected from the system, it must be manually deleted from the list of available modules by selecting DELETE
CHANNEL. A module that is accidentally deleted can be discovered again by using the START DISCOVERY function.
HardyNet Security must be UNLOCKED in order to make modifications to a system. The default HardyNet Security
password is 1111.
The number of Modules discovered (ie: channels of weight) connected to the system will be displayed as
Discovered
units: XX on the Web Browser as shown below or listed in the Discovery section of the optional front panel display once
the process is complete. The total number of discovered units includes both modules saved in memory and any additional
modules added to the system.
NOTE: Use of the Webserver (shown below) is recommended for initial system set-up and changes to a system
with a large number of channels.
NOTE: The new module will appear at the end of the channel list. If need be, reassign the channel
number and change its order in the list by using the Swap Channel process described above.
AVERTISSEMENT – Modifier les canaux en utilisant le SWAP , supprimer ou remplacer les
fonctions modifieront les données écrites sur la table I / O et pourrait affecter le fonctionnement
et la fonctionnalité du système . L'utilisation de HardyNet sécurité est conseillé de prévenir les
modifications non autorisées ou accidentel au système mis en place
WARNING - Modifying channels by using the SWAP, DELETE, or REPLACE functions will alter
data written to the I/O table and could affect the system operation and functionality. Use of
HardyNet Security is advised to prevent unauthorized or accidental modifications to the system
set-up.
