Configure the clients
Next you will configure devices to act as clients. As mentioned in Part 1, each Click 511 installation has
one server and between one and eight clients. Each client
must be given a unique ID number between 1 and 8. These
numbers must begin with 1 and be assigned sequentially (i.e.
if only three clients are used, they must be ID numbers 1, 2
and 3).
Do the following on each client:
1 Hold down the push-button, then release when the blue
LED comes on solid (Client mode).
2 Press the push-button quickly to select the mode. This
will start submenu 1, which allows you to select the cli-
ent’s ID number.
3 Use the table at right to select a device ID number. Hold
down the push-button until you reach the LED state for the desired ID number. See the introduction to
this part for restrictions on ID numbers.
4 Press the push-button once to select.
While the Click 511 is in Client mode, the yellow LEDs continue to indicate the device ID and the red LEDs
indicate the status of the digital inputs. If digital input 1 is ON, the first red LED will be solid. If digital input
1 is OFF, the first red LED will be flashing.

Install the server
Follow the steps in Parts 3 and 4 of this document to mount your server device and wire power and commu-
nication to it. Remember that this device will be reporting on the status of the contact closures on the client
devices, so the server should be able to be easily monitored.

Wire server contact closures
The purpose of the Click 511 server is to poll the client devices for the status of their digital inputs, and then
to report that information. The information that is reported can be monitored through the digital outputs
on the bottom of the server module.
However, the Click 511 only has two digital outputs, so if you are monitoring more than two clients, you will
need to connect to a contact closure device with more channels—for instance, the Click 100, which has eight
primary outputs. Whatever device you use needs to be able to communicate serially with the Click 511.
With the Click 100, this can be done by mounting the Click 100 and Click 511 on the same T-bus; if you
use the Click 172/174 rack cards, this can be done using jumper cables to connect the RJ-11 jacks on each
device.
Ensure that the contact closure device can communicate with the Click 511. If you are using a Click 100 or
Click 172/174, set it up in AC (Actuation) mode. Once the contact closure device is set up, wire into the
contact closure output terminals on the device.
