Configure the Control Board & CIMs
After programming the NETCOM6P and programming the control board with the host-
location IP address, review the general steps below to configure the control board and
CIMs for operation. Also refer to the CIM Setup Guide for instructions.
1. Refer to the NETCOM6P Operational Connections— Figure 9 and Figure 10 for
permanent on-going operation.
2. Ensure that the CIM with the network connection has a jumper ON J4. This designates
it as CIM 0.
3. Ensure that you have set the baud rate for all other CIMs to the same jumper setting
as set on CIM 0—9600 or 57,600.
4. If using global anti—pass back, ensure that one CIM is set as a Global Master by
placing a jumper ON J3. All other CIMs are set as slaves. A global master is not
required if global functions are not used.
5. Ensure that the first and last CIMs have CANBUS 1 & 2 termination jumpers set.
Reverse network communication requires CANBUS 1 & 2
6. After the control board and the NETCOMP have been programmed and connected to
the network, confer with the host location and verify the Keyscan Reverse Network
Settings Encryption and the Client software for Reverse Network communication have
been programmed.
7. After you have made all the necessary wiring and ribbon cable connections, and the
host location has installed and configured the reverse network communication
software, ensure the control boards/CIMs have power.
8. When initially powered, the CIMs will boot-up and run a self-diagnostic test. Check the
CIMs for the following:
Power Good / Fault LED—solid green
9. On the control board, the initial state of the LEDs are as follows:
System Status—solid amber
TD3—flashing momentarily approx. every minute
RD3—flashing momentarily approx. every minute following TD3
10. When communication is established with the host location, the LEDs on the control
board change to the following states:
11. System Status—solid green
12. TD3—flashing green frequent
13. RD3—flashing red frequent
14. When communication has been verified, have the host location perform a panel
upload from a Client module.
15. If the CIMs Power Good /Fault LED is flashing green or the control board’s
Communication Status COM3—TD LED only flashes x4 approximately every 60
seconds on a call out cycle to make a connection with the host location, you may have
to resolve communication issues. Refer to Troubleshoot Communication Issues to
resolve potential causes for communication faults.
Also if there is no communication, the host location Client software will report a
Communication Status Failed message
