The following defaults will be in effect from the factory for typical and hot standby configurations. Card slots
are identified as shown below.
Note: The V1599 Configurator is used to define the serial port operation for host, keypads or receivers. If you
retained the Configurator default configuration database, then the following defaults (port 1 – host, etc)
are correct. If you defined a new configuration database with the Configurator, the defaults listed below
may or may not reflect your serial port settings.

Note: Devices on the ports are always numbered consecutively. For example, receivers connected to a
V1599CDU-1 card slot 6 are numbered 1-256 on port 1 and 256-512 on port 2. Keypads on card slot 7
of that card cage are numbered 1-32 and the host PC is 1.
To change the protocol defaults, perform the following procedure.
1. Open the V1599CDU-CC front panel and locate the serial card(s). Serial cards are easily identified by
their blue extractor tabs. If you have labeled the cards, simply refer to the labels to identify each card.
2. Pull up the extractor tab and remove the card(s) from the card cage.
3. Use the figure below to define new protocol settings for each port on each serial card(s).
