TS-DIM Installation on a T5 Series Console

Some sites and dispenser configurations may require the use of a second DIM module that would be installed externally 

to perform reconciliation or VRM.  The information below outlines the special installation steps required to install a second 

TS-DIM on a T5 series console. A second DIM may be required if you exceed the following number of fueling points, 

based on dispenser/POS type

Dispenser / POS # of Fueling Points

Hardware Configuration

In order for the external TS-DIM module to communicate properly with the T5 series console a few jumpers will need to be 

adjusted.  To make these adjustments the cover of the TS-DIM will need to be removed to access the jumpers. 

Device Address

The internal DIM module in the T5 series console will always be addressed as zero.  By default an external TS-DIM will 

come shipped with an address of zero also.  For these two devices to exist on the same system the external TS-DIM will 

need to have it’s address changed to one.  Set the external TS-DIM’s address to one by placing a jumper on row 6 of W2. 

See Figure Below

Communication Settings

Once the external DIM has been addressed properly the communications for the Host 1 port will need to be changed to 

match the internal DIM communication settings.  The internal DIM’s communication settings are: 9600 Baud Rate, 8 Data 

Bits, No Parity.  To properly configure the communication setting on the external DIM you will need to place jumpers on 

the following rows 1, 2, and 3 of W1.See Figure Below
