TS1001 Touch Screen Arming Station Installation Manual
• Verify the D+ and D– wire connections (may be reversed or open circuit).
• Verify the address DIP switches of the RAS are set to the proper address.
• Verify that the Challenger panel is polling the RAS address.
Tx and Rx LED Indications
Tx and Rx LEDs are provided on the circuit board to assist in fault diagnosis, and
are visible through the Tx and Rx LED access port (Figure 3 on page 5, item 9)
or when the body is removed from the base (Figure 4 on page 5, item 3).
• Tx
— The red Tx LED flashes to indicate the RAS is replying to polling from
the Challenger panel. If the Rx LED flashes but the Tx LED does not, the
RAS is not programmed to be polled in the Challenger panel or is addressed
incorrectly.
• Rx
— The yellow Rx LED flashes to indicate polling data is being received on
the LAN from the Challenger panel. If the LED does not flash, the Challenger
panel is not operational or the LAN is faulty (usually cabling).
Firmware upgrade procedures
This section describes how to upgrade the Touch Screen RAS firmware and/or
images via the RAS’s USB port (Figure 4 on page 5, item 5) and the Tecom
Firmware Loader application. This is typically the quickest way to upgrade the
RAS.
Note:
Titan management software can also be used to upgrade the Touch
Screen RAS firmware and images. Refer to
Titan help
for details.
To upgrade the image files refer to “Upgrading RAS images” on page 19. To
upgrade the firmware refer to
“Upgrading RAS firmware” on page 19.
To upgrade the firmware or images you need the following:
• A powered and functioning Touch Screen RAS
• A Windows PC with a USB 2.0 port
• Tecom Firmware Loader application
• A USB cable (“Type A Male to Type B Mini Male” or “Type A Male to Type B
Micro Male” depending on hardware version) to connect the Windows
computer to the RAS’s USB port (located bottom right-hand side of body
assembly)
• Firmware upgrade file and/or images upgrade file
Note:
If you are upgrading both images and firmware, you need to complete one
part before starting the next part (the order is not important). The only difference
in the two parts is the file selected in step 8.
