2.3.2
Linking WAPM’s using the Configuration & Demonstration Tool (CDT)
The Schlage CDT can be used to link WAPM’s to a PIM-485-16-TD-NXT. Refer to the CDT
The PIM-485-16-TD-NXT must be connected to the PC running the CDT using a serial connection
(either RS485 or RS232).
Once the PIM-485-16-TD-NXT is connected to the PC and the CDT is running the Link tab on the
CDT’s PIM panel is used to control the PIM-485-16-TD-NXT’s Link Mode. The Panel field needs to
be set to indicate which WAPM is to be linked. Table 2-6 shows the allowable range of values for the
Panel field on the CDT Link tab.
