ChaNNeL SetuP

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.
