4. Verify that the voltage range marked on the monitor is compatible with your local
voltage source. Connect the color monitor AC power cord to the monitor, then
plug it into an appropriate voltage source.
2.11 Installing a Terminal in an S-Series System
With an S-Series Adept MV controller system, the customer must supply the terminal and
cable to interface to the controller. The terminal must be a Wyse Model 60 or 75, with an
ANSI keyboard, or a compatible terminal. A computer with suitable terminal emulation
software can also be used. For DOS or Windows-compatible computers, the programs
“Procomm+” or “Procomm for Windows” (available from many computer stores) include
software emulation for the Wyse-75.
Recommended Terminal for S-Series Systems
The recommended terminal for use with the Adept MV controller is the Wyse WY-60. Also
required is a Wyse ANSI/VT100 style keyboard (Wyse P/N 900127-02 or 900128-02).
Note: The WY-60 is also available with ASCII and IBM Enhanced PC keyboards. These are
not Adept-compatible. Make sure to order the correct keyboard. The WY-60 is available in
both 220V and 110V configurations.
Installation Procedure
1. Make sure the controller is turned off before making any connections.
2. Verify that the voltage range marked on the terminal is compatible with local
voltage source. Connect the AC power cord to the terminal, then plug it into an
appropriate voltage source.
3. Connect a suitable serial cable between the terminal and the RS-232/TERM
connector on the System Processor module.
4. If the terminal is a Wyse 60, use the set-up mode to set the personality to
“WY-75”. When using terminal emulation software on a computer, set the
software to “WY-75” emulation. If “WY-75” is not available, try “VT102” or
“VT100”. However, not all of the function keys will be usable.
5. Set the terminal baud rate to 9600, the default rate for the Adept system. To
change the Adept system baud rate, refer to the information on CONFIG_C in the
Instructions for Adept Utility Programs.
2.12 Installing AdeptWindows PC
™
An Adept MV system can be programmed and controlled by AdeptWindows PC
™
.
AdeptWindows PC
™
is a MicroSoft Windows-based program that allows full
programming and control of the AdeptModules from an IBM-compatible personal
computer. The computer can be connected to the Adept controller with a serial cable or by
an ethernet link.
