MC16 Operating Manual 09.01.2020
Memory reset
Memory reset erases all low level configuration settings including empty communication key and default
192.168.0.213 IP address of the controller. In case of firmware 1.3.2 or older the service IP address remains
unchanged and is still kept in IP.INI file on the memory card.
Memory reset procedure:
1. Disconnect power supply.
2. Short CLK and IN4 lines.
3. Restore power supply, all LED1-8 will flash and then wait min. 6s.
4. Remove connection between CLK and IN4 lines (LEDs stop flashing, LED2 is ON).
5. Wait approx. 1.5 min till LED5+LED6+LED7+LED8 are flashing.
6. Restart the controller (switch power supply off and on)
7. Start low level configuration.
Note: In case of controller with firmware 1.4.2, for the first time make low level configuration as in case of
controller with firmware 1.3.2.
Firmware update
New firmware can be uploaded to the controller using RogerVDM software or directly via memory card.
Make a backup of low level configuration and save the settings to file as firmware update usually restores
factory default settings and erases communication key. The file with the latest firmware is available at
www.roger.pl.
Firmware update procedure (RogerVDM):
1. Establish connection with the controller using RogerVDM software.
2. Make a backup of low level configuration by clicking Send to File…
3. In the top menu select Tools and then Update Firmware.
4. Select firmware file and click Update.
5. After firmware upload wait till LED8 is flashing.
6. Start or restore low level configuration with RogerVDM.
Firmware update procedure (memory card):
1. Remove power supply.
2. Remove FLASH memory card from the controller.
3. Copy the new firmware to the memory card and rename it as FW.BUF.
4. Insert the memory card back again to the controller socket.
5. Power up the unit and wait till LED8 is flashing.
6. Start or restore low level configuration with RogerVDM software.
Note: During the firmware update process, it is necessary to ensure continuous and stable power supply for
the MC16 module. The power supply failure may result in device repair by Roger service.
Note: In case of firmware update for controller which is operated in existing installation, additionally start
VISO software detect again the controller, replace and synchronise settings according to AN015 application
note.
4. HIGH LEVEL CONFIGURATION (VISO)
The high level configuration is conducted by means of VISO software and it is dedicated to define the logic
of MC16 controller. It requires configuration of logic objects and their interrelations. Available MC16 objects
and their parameters are listed below.
The configuration of exemplary RACS 5 system is explained in AN006 application note which is available at
