4.2 Configuration Using a Manager Card
With the Manager Card pair and all KBU card pairs fitted the first task is
to set the individual KBU 64 poll numbers. Once all the units are
installed and a suitable terminal connected to the rack manager card
command port, the lockout switches should be set to disable access to
all the KBU 64s except one (for the sake of convenience it is better to
configure the left most KBU 64 first). The individual poll address can
then be set by typing the following commands:-
1> SET POLL xxx[CR]
where xxx represents the unique address in the range 001 to
999
Next, the KBU 64 card needs to be set for polled mode by typing
1> SET CONSOLE POLL[CR]
To check that the KBU 64 is responding, type
1> POLL xxx [CR]
where xxx represents the address that you have just set
The lockout switch for this KBU 64 should then be set to disable the KBU
64 and the next KBU 64 can be programmed by enabling via the lockout
switches
etc. etc.
Once all the KBU 64s have been programmed, the lockout switches
must be set to enable ALL the KBU 64s.
