Configuring System Resources
The first step in configuring a system is configuring the Resources in the four Resource Windows:
Network Interface Window
Add IP Comparators and configure their IP parameters,
.
Add HIB-IP Network Interfaces (for legacy MCN systems), configure their parameters, and
program the HIB-IP units,
Display other MCN Legacy Network Interface(s) (PCLTA, or HIB-232 modules if used).
Hardware Window
Enter additional information for IP Comparators,
Add Legacy MCN comparator (CIB & AIB) modules and I/O Modules and configure their MCN
addresses.
Receiver Window
Enter the receiver names & I/O group names and other data for all hardware modules.
Channel Window
Enter radio channel names.
The individual resource windows and configuration instructions are in the following sections.
Adding IP Comparators & Network Interfaces - Network Interface Window
This window displays the following items configured for this system:
•
IP Comparator IP configuration data
•
Legacy MCN Network Interfaces (HIB-IP, PCLTA and HIB-232 modules)
From this window, you can also configure the IP settings for a HIB-IP module (if used).
The number of IP comparators and legacy Network Interfaces that can be used by the system are
controlled by the software key file.
•
The legacy Network Interfaces (HIB-IP, PCLTA) can connect to multiple legacy MCN
hardware modules (such as CIB, AIB and GPIO modules).
•
The GCM 8000 and MLC 8000 Analog Comparator Network Interface entries are each
associated with one comparator.
•
The MM Mixed Mode Network Interface is associated with both a GCM 8000 and an MLC
8000 Analog Comparator.
