LS Stand Alone Mode
The System Manager must be confi gured for the correct mode of
operation for your system. There are 5 modes of operation available
for the Orion System—LS (Low Speed) Stand-Alone, HS (High
Speed) Stand-Alone, LS (Low Speed) Network, HS (High Speed)
Network, and LS (Low Speed) & HS (High Speed) Multiple
MGRS.
If you are using this System Manager on a communications loop
that doesn’t have a MiniLink PD or CommLink connected to it and
you have a single System Manager on your system, then you need
to operate in LS (Low Speed) Stand-Alone Mode. If you are us-
ing a VCC-X Controller or GPC-XP Controller that is set for high
speed, and you don’t have a MiniLink PD or CommLink connected
to the loop, then you will need to change the setting to HS (High
Speed) Stand Alone Mode.
If you are using the System Manager on a communications loop
and have an installed MiniLink PD or CommLink, you will need to
change the setting to LS (Low Speed) Network Mode. If you are
using a VCC-X Controller or GPC-XP Controller that is set for high
speed, and are using a MiniLink PD or CommLink, then you will
need to change the setting to HS (High Speed) Network Mode.
If you are using this System Manager on a communications loop,
have a MiniLink PD or CommLink installed, and have multiple Sys-
tem Managers, then you need to operate in Multiple MGRS Mode.
