Chapter 1: Getting Started
Installation and setup require that a person be on-site with the Polling
Controller and one with the Line Sharing Switch.
Please note that programming is not required to operate the Polling
Controller with the Line Sharing Switch. You should program only if you wish
to customize the system for your application.
Where to Start
Select one of the two configurations below to get started. When you get to the
setup, installation, and programming steps, read all instructions and the
examples thoroughly before you begin.
Line Sharing Switch and Polling Controller Configuration
•
To setup the Polling Controller, follow the instructions in Chapter 3, Single
Unit Installation. (These instructions are also in the LSS Reference Manual,
Chapter 2: Polling Controller Installation.)
•
If you are using several Polling Controllers and have purchased a Carrier,
follow Installing Multiple Units in Carrier in Chapter 3.
Note:
When you have finished installation and have tested each Polling
Controller, you can program the unit to operate with different commands. The
factory defaults, which are used until you program the unit, let you get started
and operate the unit immediately.
•
(Optional.) To program the Polling Controller, review the commands in
Table 2, then follow the Setup Polling Controller for Programming
instructions in Chapter 4.
You must program if: you have programmed the Line Sharing Switch to use
different Port Transfer Codes or if you will daisy-chain the units.
Daisy-chain LSS Configuration
•
This configuration is intended for experienced users only. Follow the
instructions to install, test, and program new Port Transfer Codes.
