Connecting the JNSGyro-4T and a Computer
Connecting the JNSGyro-4T and a Computer
Notice: Because the JNSGyro-4T system consists of more than one receiver
boards, you should connect every board with a computer one by one
and repeat all described below procedures with all four boards.
To configure or maintain the JNSGyro-4T, you need to connect four boards one
by one and a computer using an RS232 cable.
Once you have established a connection between the JNSGyro-4T’s board and
the computer, you will be able to:
• Configure the board and its components
• Send commands to the board
• Use FLoader to load new firmware to the unit’s board
• Use PCView to load OAFs and configuration files to the board.
Establishing an RS232 Cable Connection
1. Using the RS232 cable, connect the serial port of your computer
(usually COM1) to the unit’s serial port 1A (for the first Master board),
or 1B (for the second board), or 1C (for the third board), or 1D (for the
fourth board).
2. Press the power buttons on the JNSGyro-4T and computer to turn them
on.
3. Continue with steps, described in “Establishing a PCView Connection”
Establishing a PCView Connection
PCView is a software used to manage the various functions of your
JNSGyro-4T’s four boards.
The full range of PCView configuration and function is outside the scope of
this manual. For more information on any of the procedures in this section
or on PCView, refer to the
PCView Software Manual available on the JNS
website (http://www.javad.com).
Once the JNSGyro-4T and a computer are connected, start PCView on your
computer.
The PCView main screen displays (Figure 2-2 on page 2-4).
