3 Using Omni with Two SIDs
Refer to the sections Profiles and Modes Explained, Input Devices Explained
and Configuration Explained in the R-net PC Programmer help text or in the R-
net Technical Manual Programming chapter.
Two SIDs can be connected to the Omni at any time. The connections are
made via Port 1 and Port 2, which are the 9-way D-type connectors on the
underside of the Omni.
There are four programming steps to follow.
1 Decide which Profiles are to be associated with each SID and into
which Port each SID will connect, then set the parameter Port
accordingly.
2 Set the parameter Profile Enable to enable only the required Profiles.
3 Ensure the parameter Mode Enable is set to enable the required
Modes for both SIDs.
4 Decide upon appropriate names for each of the Profiles and set the
parameter Profile Name accordingly.

Example:
It is required that two SIDs are to be connected to the Omni. SID 1 will control
Profiles 1 to 3 and be connected to Port 1, while SID 2 will control Profiles 4 to 6
and be connected to Profile 2. All Modes can be controlled via either of the
SIDs and the Profiles are to be named: SID1 Slow, SID1 Medium, SID3 Fast, SID2
Slow, SID2 Medium and SID3 Fast.
1 Assign the SID 1 Profiles to Port 1 and the SID 2 Profiles to Port 2.
2 Disable Profile 7, as it is not required. There is no need to disable
Profile 8, as it is reserved for use by an Attendant type device.
