SECTION 11

6287 ULTRA COMPATIBILITY

General Information

The 6287 ALLY PLUS allows users to program the unit with data streams

originally used to program other AGILE products, including the 6287

ULTRA, 6287 IC and 6287 IC+ (although this section will use the ULTRA

to refer to all three products). Customers who are either upgrading their

protocol converters from the ULTRA to the ALLY PLUS, or who are

adding one or more ALLY PLUS units to an environment with ULTRA

units, can program both devices with the same data stream. The ALLY

PLUS supports both ULTRA coax host configuration data streams and

ULTRA configuration from an alternate host.

6287 ULTRA Configuration Compatibility

The ALLY PLUS will accept configuration commands intended for the

6287 ULTRA and execute the equivalent ALLY PLUS commands.
The ALLY PLUS mimics three different ways of programming the ULTRA

configuration options:

• Off-line coax host configuration using Trigger 1 - Question Mark

(¢?)

• On-line coax host configuration using Trigger 1 - Question Mark -

Trigger 1 - Trigger 1 - Question Mark (¢?¢¢?)

• Off-line alternate host configuration

The following ULTRA programmable function string programming is

supported:

• Off-line coax host PFS configuration using Trigger 1 - Percent Sign

(¢%)

• On-line coax host PFS configuration using Trigger 1 - Question

Mark - Trigger 1 - Trigger 1 - Percent Sign (¢?¢¢%)

• Off-line alternate host PFS configuration using the Percent Sign (%)
