Pressing the <Parameter 1> encoder button at this prompt takes you to the local 480R
Utilities. If the 480R is attached to a DriveRack unit, pressing encoder 2 at this prompt
takes you to the Utilities for that unit. If SysCon is enabled for the 480R, pressing
encoder 3 at this prompt takes you to the SysCon parameter pages. If the 480R is not
attached to a DriveRack unit and SysCon is disabled on the 480R, this prompt will be
skipped, and you will instead be taken directly to local Utilities.
Enabling SysCon on the 480R
In local Utility page 7, SysCon can be enabled or disabled on the 480R by pressing
encoder 3. A prompt screen will then query you for the source of the SysCon config-
uration.
System Configure
Choose From:
1 480R
2 Driveware
3 Network
Pressing encoder 1 at the prompt keeps the configuration data currently defined in the
480R. If the DriveWare GUI is running and attached to the Master, pressing encoder 2
gets the configuration data from the DriveWare. If there is a DriveRack Master on the
network, pressing encoder 3 gets the configuration data from all of the DriveRack units
on the network.
If SysCon is already enabled on the 480R, the above configuration prompt screen will
also come up when the 480R is powered on.
Configuring SysCon from the 480R
In local Utility page 8, DriveRack units can be configured for SysCon.
Turning the first encoder allows you to choose the SysCon group to be configured.
There is one Input group and 32 Output groups.
Turning the second and third encoders allows you to navigate an outlined cursor
around the DriveRack boxes and their channels for a particular SysCon group. Encoder
2 moves the cursor between channels 1 through 4 for the Input group or between chan-
nels 1 through 8 for any Output group. Encoder 3 moves the cursor between the
Master DriveRack and DriveRack 99, scrolling the LCD screen in steps of six boxes.
When you have navigated to a box and channel of interest, pressing either the second
or third encoder will select or deselect that box/channel for that SysCon group. If the
box/channel are in that SysCon group, it will be highlighted.
