Chapter 5 Install the AADvance System
Procedure to Check the Current Date and Time
1. Wire the processor variables. Refer to the topic "Wire Processor
Variables".
2. Build and download the program or perform an on-line update.
3. Check the current date and time settings:
• Enter Debug mode
• Request IXL Restricted Access
• Force the RTC Read Boolean and all the time fields in the RTC Control
Rack Variables to TRUE
• The RTC Status Variables will show the current date and time in the
processor
Procedure to Set the Date and Time
1. Unlock the RTC Read variable so it turns FALSE.
2. Select each RTC Program Rack variable and enter the date and time
values.
3. Toggle the RTC Write variable TRUE then FALSE to write the new date
and time setting to the processor.
4. Lock and force the RTC Read variable to TRUE.
5. The RTC Status rack now displays the new date and time of the
processor.
6. Unlock all the RTC Control variables.
Install I/O Modules Do the following:
• Before inserting a new I/O module, examine it for damage.
• The identification labels on the sides of the I/O module will be hidden
when the module is installed. Therefore before installation write down
the location of the module and the details shown on the label.
Installation
1. Examine the coding pegs on the termination assembly and make sure
that they complement the sockets on the rear of the new I/O module.
2. Place the I/O module on to the dowel pins on the T9300 I/O base unit.
Make sure the slot on the head of the module clamp screw is vertical and
then push the module home until the module connectors are fully mated
with the I/O base unit and termination assembly connectors.
3. The locking screw requires a quarter turn clockwise to lock. Use a broad
(9mm) flat blade screwdriver to lock the clamp screw. The locking screw
acts as a power interlock device and must be in the locked position when
power is applied otherwise the module will not be configured.
Install T9310 Expansion
Cables
Use T9310 expansion cables to connect additional groups of T9300 I/O base
units.
The ferrites supplied with the expansion cable are snap on components. Fit the
ferrites 50 mm (2 in.) from each end and secure with cable ties either side of
the ferrites.
IMPORTANT
Do not force the RTC Write Boolean at this point.
