4 Startup
This chapter describes the setup and configuration procedures to activate a newly installed RMC
system. Complete the RMC configurations through the Windows
®
-based interface software PCCU32.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Click Help
on any of the screens used for configuration. Online help topics are
available for each PCCU screen.
4.1 Configure the RMC using PCCU32
4.1.1 Install the PCCU32 interface
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The RMC equipment requires PCCU32 version 7.57 or newer. Previous
versions
of PCCU32 are not compatible. PCCU32 must be installed in the PC or laptop used to
configure the RMC.
PCCU32 software operates in a Windows® environment.
To install with a PCCU32 installation file downloaded from the ABB website:
1. Locate the downloaded file on the PC or laptop. The file downloaded is compressed.
2. Un-compress the downloaded file.
3. Display File Explorer, then locate and open the PCCU32 folder.
4. Double-click setup.exe to run the installation program. Follow the screen prompts during
installation.
5. Click Finish when installation completes.
4.2 Establish local communication
Connect the laptop to the USB, Ethernet, or MMI ports to establish local communication with the
controller. These ports are configured at the factory for local operator access. Configure PCCU to use
any of these ports. To configure the controller, connect to the preferred port, establish a connection to
the controller with PCCU, and proceed to section 4.3
.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
External weatherproof local communication connectors (USB, Ethernet or
MMI) are available on
Xcore enclosures, if purchased. Use external ports to connect locally if the
RMC is inside an enclosure. If the RMC is a standalone device, use the USB or Ethernet
ports. The
MMI port has a proprietary connector requiring a cable adapter not shipped with the standalone
unit.
Do not use external enclosure connectors for permanent field connections. These connectors are
only for local access during configuration or m
aintenance.
4.2.1 Using the USB port
The following instructions apply to USB port connections. Table 4-1 provides cabling details to connect
to the USB port.
