Channel Setup is used to configure a Dual Control Module (DCM) connected to
the Legacy 6000 CAN Bus. A DCM cannot be configured if it is not connected to
the CaN Bus.
Setting up a Channel is typically required in the following scenarios:
the initial Legacy 6000 hardware installation
•
an additional Channel is added to the system
•
Modification of an existing channel
•
Channel setup consists of ten primary headers (including Channel Setup, Favor-
ites, application type, drive type, units, Primary Sensor, Secondary Sensor, and
monitors 1-4). each header contains detailed setup parameters designed to meet
operator needs. information entered during Channel Setup may affect subsequent
channel settings and pages. Refer to ChaPteR 2 - Page Layout aNd NaVi-
gatioN for additional information on navigating through these types of screens.
many parameters in Channel Setup are dependent on other parameters in Chan-
nel Setup; therefore navigating these settings via the Setup wizard type interface
is the only choice in Channel Setup.
From the main Launcher page, select the System Setup softkey, followed by the
Channel Setup softkey. the message “Contacting Channel” will be displayed. the
Channel Setup page will display a button for each Channel the software detects
on the CaN Bus.
If there is only one Channel enabled, this page will not ap-
pear and the software will advance directly to the First main setup header
(named Favorite). each button will display the Channel Number, Serial Number,
and Channel Name (as illustrated in Figure 2-19). Select the desired Channel to
be configured using the Arrow keys and press the Enter button or by selecting the
appropriate softkey.
