2. On the XPC Gateway, check to ensure that DIP switches 3 and 4 are set to ON.
5.3 CONFIGURING THE ECS CONTROLLER
Refer to Eurotherm Communications Handbook HA026230, Chapter 5 and program a communication
address between 29 and 32 for the standard XPC Gateway. Ensure that each ECS Controller on the
network has its own distinct address. Contact AERCO if more than 4 ECS units will be placed on the
network or a different address range is required.
1. Set the communications baud rate to 9600.
2. This completes the required connections, settings and programming for the ECS.
3. Close the swing-down hinged panel of the Control Box and close the door.
4. Upon power-up, the Gateway should begin to read the ECS information after its preliminary checks.
5.4 CONFIGURING THE ECS CONTROLLER FOR REMOTE SETPOINT OPERATION
In addition to the instructions as indicated above in section 5.3 follow the steps below to configure the
ECS Controller for remote setpoint operation via the XPC Gateway.
1. Page to “ACCS”.
2. Scroll and enter the code as 24.
3. Scroll and at the “GOTO” menu choose “Conf”.
4. At the “Conf” screen enter the code as 8.
5. Press the scroll button once and then the page button until you find “SP”
6. Scroll until you find “rmt” and set the parameter value to “SP”.
7. Press the page and scroll buttons at the same time to go to “exit”.
8. Press the up arrow to select “yes” and then the instrument will reboot.
9. Once the instrument has returned to its normal state, press the page button until you see “SP”.
10. Scroll until you see ”L-R” and using the up arrow select “rmt”.
11. Once you have selected “rmt” press the page and scroll buttons at the same time to return to the
normal temp display.
12. You should now be able to control the setpoint remotely.
