Important: Adding a redundant controller board to an existing table will also affect the system as described im-
mediately above.
AUTOMATIC TABLE ENTRY
Because entries on this table are needed on other tables, the Configurator will automatically copy (or offer as a selectable item)
the data entered on this “initial entry” table to all “secondary” tables (including Saturn tables). For example, when a VM 3000
is entered, the name chosen will be added automatically to the Serial Protocol table. For more information about automatic
table entry, see page 5−3.
ENTERING DESCRIPTIONS OF CONTROLLER BOARDS
1.
On the top of the Jupiter Configurator window (page 5−2), check to see whether the configuration set you want to
change is selected for editing.
In most cases, you will want to modify the set that is currently active; if so, you may want to copy the active set and
select the copy for editing. For more information, please see Copying a Configuration Set for Editing on page 5−10.
2.
Click on “Jupiter > Network Description.” This will open a table similar to that shown on page 5−22.
3.
Double−click on the first Board Name box.
Guidelines for using the editor are found on page 5−3.

Enter the desired name for the board, up to eight characters.
