the resident TBC, MicroSYNC and V-Scope cards. The AMIGA can control a maximum number of eight TBC and
MicroSYNC cards. The IBM PC can control a maxiumum of thirty-two TBC and MicroSYNC cards. Any V-SCOPE
command sent by the computer will affect all of the V-Scopes installed in all of the ES-2200s that are linked together.
There are three rules that must be followed when setting a card address inside an ES-2200:
The Address of the ES-2200 must be set to the same address as the card installed in the UNIT 1 slot. Set DIP Switches
5, 4, 3, 2 and 1on the ES-2200T front panel or DIP Switches 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2 on the
ES-2200S in same direction as DIP Switches 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively on the card installed in the UNIT 1 slot
(except V-Scopes). For example, if the card in the UNIT 1 slot had its DIP Switches set to:
3 UP
4 DOWN
5 DOWN
6 DOWN
7 DOWN
Then the switches inside the front of the ES-2200T chassis should be set to:
1 DOWN
2 DOWN
3 DOWN
4 DOWN
5 UP
Or the switches inside the front of the ES-2200S chassis should be set to:
2 DOWN
3 DOWN
4 DOWN
5 DOWN
6 UP
The address of the card installed in the UNIT 2 slot must be one address greater than that of the card installed in the
UNIT 1 slot. (Except V-Scopes)
The Baud rate of the all the cards and of the ES-2200 front panel should be the same. The Default factory setting is
9600 BPS.
Unlike the TBC IV/ MicroSYNC cards, all V-SCOPES respond to address byte 10 Hex. Therefore all V-SCOPES in a
system will respond to any V-SCOPE command regardless of the ES-2200 address. V-Scopes should be installed in the
UNIT 2 slot only. (See figures 5-3 and 5-4.)
