ETC ONE PLUS Network Communicator
Using PAS Software
Supplemental PAS software that came with your ETC ONE PLUS can be used
for configuring the ETC ONE PLUS via the Internet or locally (in Programming
mode only).
See the “PAS Getting Started Guide” supplied on the installation CD for
information on how to install PAS on your PC.
Configuration Database
To communicate with the ETC ONE PLUS from PAS, create a site database
for your device. All communication and configuration data for your device will
be stored in this database. During configuration, store all setups to the site
database so that PAS recognizes device properties regardless of whether the
ETC ONE PLUS is online or offline.
To create a new database for your ETC ONE PLUS:
1.
Select Configuration from the Tools menu, and then click the Sites button
on the right-hand side.
2.
From the “Look in” box, select the directory where the new database will
be stored. By default, it is the “Sites” directory. Type a site name for your
device in the “File name” box, click New, and then click OK.
3.
On the Instrument
Setup tab, select “
ETC ONE PLUS
” in the “Model” box.
4.
Set the device address to 99 unless you have changed the ETC ONE
PLUS default address in your device.
5.
If you wish to add any comments for your device, type them into the
“Comment” box.
Setting up Communications
Communicating through the Ethernet
