Before You Begin
This section describes preparations that should be completed
before you start
programming.
If you are familiar with FF key programming for DBS
systems, you may begin programming as soon as these preparations have
been made.
If you are new to DBS programming, be sure to read
“Understanding FF
Key Programming”
on page Intro-5 before you begin.
Preparations for Programming
Prior to programming the DBS system, make sure you have completed the
following steps:
1. Confirm that the DBS features meet customer requirements. See
Section
700-Feature Operation
for DBS feature descriptions.
2. Confirm that you have the DBS hardware required for the end user. See
Section 300-Installation
for details.
3. Use
Forms and Tables (Section 450)
to record the customer’s site data.
Use the following guidelines when completing
Forms and Tables:
• Be sure to record
all
program entries.
• Leave the default values for equipment that is not connected.
• Pay careful attention to program items that require a power-down to take
effect. Be sure to complete the necessary programming in these areas
before you make the system operational.
4. To program a new DBS system, you must first initialize the software to
default values (see
“Initializing DBS Systems”
, next page). If you are
performing an upgrade and the system is using a CPC-B card, you must
first perform the New Function Reset procedure (see
“Upgrading CPC-B
Software”
on page Intro-5).
Once these steps are completed, use the site data in
Forms and Tables
to
program the system.
