LCN System Installation 3-18 9/96
3.6.3
3.6.3 Coax Cabling Procedure
1. Connect all “A” cables to the “A” connector on the LCNI I/O cards and KLCNA
cards.
2. Load system software or HVTS into the system.
3. Do a CONFIGURATION request to each LCN node configured on the system as
shown in the topology map for this system. Each node should report its configuration.
If any do not, then they are not connected to the coax cable or are connected to the
wrong coax cable.
4. If all nodes properly report their configuration, connect the “B” coax cables to the “B”
connectors on the LCNI I/O cards and the KLCNB cards.
3.7 LCN EXTENDER (LCNE) CABLING
LCN Extenders (LCNEs) and fiber optic cables, up to two km (6562 ft.) in length, can be
used to interconnect LCN coaxial bus segments. For information about the hardware and
connections required to implement this, refer to Section 3 of LCN Guidelines.
3.8 INSTALLATION OF FLOATING ENGINEER’S KEYBOARD (U
X
S Auxiliary)
Install a Floating Engineer’s Keyboard on a Universal Station (US) that is designated to
use the Engineer’s Personality or do engineering functions using the Universal Personality.
Connect the keyboard cable to the US by plugging it into the connector located on the right-
hand side of the gooseneck under the Operator’s Keyboard.
NOTE
In an Arc configuration, keyboard trays cannot be extended on adjacent Operator Interface
Stations (OISs).
• Extend the keyboard tray by grasping the tray by the hole, located under the tray in
the center and pull forward.
• Keyboard cable connection is located behind the Removable Media door.
• Set the keyboard on the extended tray with the keyboard legs in the elevated
position.
