53SU6000 INSTALLATION AND SETUP GUIDE

Introduction 21

If you are upgrading or reinstalling a 53SU6000 over an existing 53SU6000, a window will
appear at this time asking if you would like to add any networks (Micro-DCI instruments)
now. If you would like to add Micro-DCI instrument networks, click on the Yes button.

3.5.8 Adding Micro-DCI Networks

The Add Micro-DCI Networks window appears. Click the Next button.

The Setup program then starts the Super32 program, which is a 53SU6000 program that
enables you to add Micro-DCI network instruments to your system. This is a good time to add
Micro-DCI networks to your system since you need to reboot your PC after installing the
53SU6000 software and after you install the Micro-DCI networks.

The first Network Wizard window lets you select whether you are adding a network that is
connected to your system through a supervisor board (SUP) or though a COM port (COM).
Select either SUP or COM. Then click the Next button.

In the Network Wizard - Network Attributes window, enter a Network Name (up to 9
characters) and select a Network Position. Then click the Next button.

The Network Wizard - Backup window appears. Select Master or Backup, and then click the
Next button.

The Network Wizard - Network Parameters window appears. Set the I/O Port Address to
agree with the address jumpers on the Supervisor board as shown in

Table 3-2

.

The parameters change depending on the type of network that is being installed.

After selecting the port, click the Next button.

In the Network Wizard - Finish window, click the Finish button.

A window appears stating that you need to reboot your computer for the system to recognize
the newly added SUP Micro-DCI networks. Click the OK button.

If the network was added successfully, Super32 will ask if another network is to be added. If
so, repeat the above steps until all desired Micro-DCI networks have been added. Answering
No exits Super 32 and returns you to the Main 53SU6000 Setup program.

At this point the Notepad application opens and a 53SU6000 Read Me file appears containing
53SU6000 release information. When you have finished reading this document, close
Notepad.

Setup will now ask if you want to restart the PC.

Select Yes and then click the OK button to restart the PC.

This completes the setup process.
