Programming a Linked DECT System using SIO 38HBKD0001SAH – Issue 14 (27th October 2003)
Programming a Linked DECT System using SIO
1. Ensure that the mains power supply to both Control Units is off.
Remove the cabinet covers.
2. In each cabinet, put the jumper connector of the left-hand jumper
(the Boot Command Interpreter jumper).
3. Apply power to both cabinets.
4. For Linked DECT systems, that are to be programmed using the SIO
interface, the f_app.dd.dat file must be uploaded
(see Editing the DECT Database via SIO on page 68).
5. Connect your PC to the Master Cabinet. Start the Link SIO program, it
should attempt to connect to the Master Cabinet and then display the
Boot Command Interpreter menu.
6. Enter load f. Enter flash.ktb to select the flash.ktb file in the same
directory as the Link SIO program (alternatively add the required drive
and directory). Press Ctrl + Break to exit the Boot Command
Interpreter.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the Slave Cabinet.
8. Disconnect the mains power supply.
9. In the Slave Cabinet, remove the jumper connector. In the Master
Cabinet, place the jumper connector on the right-hand jumper
(Slave/Master Jumper).
10. Connect your PC to the Master Cabinet and start the Link SIO
program. When the Boot Command Interpreter menu appears, enter
role and select Master.
11. Restart the Slave and Master Cabinets.
12. Restart SIO and check that it connects to the Master Cabinet rather
than switching to the Boot Command Interpreter menu mode. If this
fails, check the jumper settings.
The following sections detail the known differences from programming a
single cabinet DECT system using SIO.
Entering Handset Details
The f_app.dd.dat cannot currently be used to program users on DAB card
channels in the Slave Cabinet. Enter the handset details for these users as
if they were using the DAB card channels in the Master Cabinet. Then use
the SIO command USRMOVE (Shift F7) to move each user to the
appropriate DAB card channel in the Slave Cabinet. Then reload the
f_app.dd.dat file with the required handset details for the Master Cabinet.
Subscribing Handsets to Slave Cabinet DAB Channels
Handsets registered to Slave Cabinet DAB channels can only currently be
subscribed whilst the Master Cabinet's Base Stations are disconnected.
