PROGRAMMING A 315
The 315 is programmed using CTVue Configurator software. The software is
available as a free download from Control Technique’s website, or it can be
purchased on CD. Updates to the software for new features and drivers are posted
on the website as they become available. By programming the 315 using the
latest version of the software, you are assured that your unit has the most up to
date feature set. The software can configure the 315 through the RS232 PGM
port, USB port, Ethernet port, or CompactFlash.
The USB port is connected using a standard USB cable with a Type B
connector. The driver needed to use the USB port will be installed with CTVue
Configurator.
The RS232 PGM port uses a programming cable to connect to the DB9 COM
port of your computer. If you choose to make your own cable, use the “315 Port
Pin Out Diagram” for wiring information.
The CompactFlash can be used to program a CTVue by placing a
configuration file and firmware on the CompactFlash card. The card is then
inserted into the target CTVue, and the CTVue is then powered up. Refer to the
CTVue Configurator literature for more information on the proper names and
locations of the files.
USB, DATA TRANSFERS FROM THE
COMPACTFLASH CARD
In order to transfer data from the CompactFlash card via the USB port, a driver
must be installed on your computer. This driver is installed with CTVue Configurator
and is located in the folder C:\Program Files\Control Techniques\CTVUE\Device\
after CTVue Configurator is installed. This may have already been accomplished if
your 315 was configured using the USB port.
Once the driver is installed, connect the 315 to your PC with a USB cable, and
follow “Mounting the CompactFlash” instructions in the CTVue Configurator user
manual.
ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS
Ethernet communications can be established at either 10 BASE-T or 100
BASE-TX. The 315 unit’s RJ45 jack is wired as a NIC (Network Interface
Card). For example, when wiring to a hub or switch use a straight-through cable,
but when connecting to another NIC use a crossover cable.
The Ethernet connector contains two LEDs. A yellow LED in the upper right,
and a bi-color green/amber LED in the upper left. The LEDs represent the
following statuses:
On the rear of each unit is a unique 12-digit MAC address and a block for
marking the unit with an IP address. Refer to the CTVue Configurator manual
and Control Technique’s website for additional information on Ethernet
communications.
