DX LCD Display, Version 3, DT-9100-8104
Issue Date 0800
1
The DX LCD Display is designed for use with the DX-9100
(Version 2.0 or later) and DX-9121 Series of digital controllers. The
display connects directly to the built in RS-232 serial port of the DX
controller, allowing easy access to all of the system functions that are
available at the user’s password level, such as alarm logs and time
schedules. The DX LCD Display is operated through a simple keypad
and menu system that provide easy, intuitive access to the data and
parameters stored in the DX controller.
The DX LCD Display with firmware starting from Version 3.x,
Ordering Code DT-9100-8104, can use an RS-232/RS-485 converter to
communicate, via the N2 Bus, with one of up to eight DX-9100
controllers working in standalone mode, that is with no supervisory
system monitoring the N2 Bus. A DX LCD Display Unit with an
earlier firmware version (2.x) can communicate directly with one DX
controller by a direct connection, but not via the N2 Bus.
The DX LCD Display configuration parameters are entered using a
personal computer, and configuration software is available from
Johnson Controls. Configuration data is downloaded to the display via
the computer’s serial port and is stored in EEPROM memory, which
requires no battery support.
Note:
In the remainder of this guide, the DX-9100 and DX-9121
controllers will be referred to simply as “DX controllers.”
