7.9.2 Operation of NOVA in Cable Control Mode
With cable control cable attached, switch on transmitter following the start up sequence as outlined in Section 4. During start
up, the transmitter will automatically recognize that the cable is attached and communicating and thus will switch into cable
control mode. This will turn off all wireless transmission and send/receive all command and feedback signals through the cable.
All controls on the transmitter will function the same regardless of whether the transmitter is in cable control
mode or wireless mode.
7.9.3 Decoder Address Learning (CC interface)
The coder address can be configured by a decoder (ex. BMS2, Rx14HL, DC Mobile) through its cable control (RS232) interface
whenever the same coder is powered directly by the decoder. This is possible on all transmitters with a colour display. To put
the coder in address learn mode, it must be powered ON with DK1 switch (#7) ON and not in STOP condition. During this stage
the red status LED (with the symbol ) starts blinking confirming the coder is in address learn mode. Once the coder is in
address learn mode DK1 must be turned OFF and ON again to send address learn command to the decoder. In this mode, it
will wait for receiver address information which will be provided by the decoder. Once the address information is being retrieved
from the receiver, the green LED will turn ON. The coder will receive the address sent from the decoder and validates the
address. The address will be saved into the ADMO if the received address is valid and the green LED turns OFF. If the address
received is not valid or if there is any error in the communication while receiving the address, the green LED will remain
continuously ON. If there is an error then the coder must be turned OFF and the address learning procedure outlined above
must be performed again.
7.9.4 Returning Transmitter to Wireless Mode
To return to wireless mode, the transmitter must be powered off and the cable disconnected. Following the start up sequence
from Section 4, restart the transmitter. This will automatically detect that it is no longer in cable control mode and will start the
unit in its normal wireless mode.
