SECTION 4
Configuration and programming
This section lists initialization settings and describes programming
functions that are unique to configuring the KMD-5205 and
KMD-5270 controllers. Other programming features and more
detailed instructions are covered in the
WinControl XL User’s Plus Reference
Manual
.
Initializing with
HCM
Before a controller is placed into service, it must be initialized and addressed with
the KMC
Hardware Configuration Manager
(HCM) software. HCM is distributed on
the WinControl XL software CD; complete operating instructions are included in
the Hardware Configuration Manager help files or the
HCM Reference Guide
available on the KMC Controls web site.
Caution
The Hardware Configuration Manager sets all controllers on the Tier 2
network to the same parameters. To prevent disruption to other controllers on
the network, disconnect the network cables at the RS-485 port or remove the
isolation bulbs on the controller prior to starting HCM.
Note
Ethernet settings do not take effect in a controller until the power is cycled.
1. Unplug the Tier 2 or Modbus network connection from the RS-485 port.
2. Connect a serial cable between the controller and the computer on which
HCM will run. See
Connecting to a computer through the serial port
.
3. Start HCM and establish communications with the controller.
4. Make the entries as described in the section
KMC digital network configuration
.
5. Set up the Ethernet routing table. See
6. On applicable models, do the following:
• Enter BACnet parameters. See
Setting up for BACnet networks
• Set up the Modus communications. See
Setting up for Modbus networks
.
7. Return the network connection to the RS-232 port.
