REMOTE OPERATION AND INTERROGATION
The IAC is connected, as part of a network, to a remote computer via
the Serial Link, all of the settin
g
and interro
g
ation functions are
carried out at the computer terminal.
Each IAC will be identified b
y
a uni
q
ue Address Code which is set up
via switch SW1 located to the ri
g
ht of the upper terminal block. This
allows the computer to select the desired IAC on the network. Up to
a maximum of 32 IAC Controllers
(
or similar compatible devices
)
ma
y
be connected to a LAN
(
more if a separate MIU or IAC Touch-screen
is used
)
.
TOUCH-SCREEN SUB LAN ADDRESS
If the IAC is on a Touch-screen Sub LAN then the address which the
computer uses is as follows:-
(
(
Touch-screen address – 64
)
x 100
)
+ IAC set address
e.
g
. Touch-screen address = 68
IAC address = 3
Computer address for the IAC =
(
(
68 – 64
)
x 100
)
+3 = 403
In this wa
y
it is possible for lar
g
e sites to have a uni
q
ue address for
ever
y
network controller.
SETTING THE TOUCH-SCREEN ADDRESS
To set the Touch-screen address and Baud rate see the
Touch-screen User Guide.
SETTING THE ADDRESS, BAUD RATE AND
APPLICATION OF THE IAC 600 BASE UNIT
Instructions 1 to 4 will COLD START
y
our IAC and clear out the
memor
y
.
1. Ensure all IAC outputs are disconnected from the plant.
2. Set bit switch 1 "ON". Set all other bit switches to "OFF" - see fi
g
.
5.
3. Set bit switch 8 to "ON" and then back to "OFF", this will load
preset 1.
4. Set all bit switches to "OFF". Set bit switch 8 to "ON" and then
back to "OFF", this will load preset 0.
5. If
y
ou are usin
g
preset 0
y
ou should now set the controller
address. If
y
ou are usin
g
a hardware preset application set the
application number on bit switches 1 to 6 and ensure that bit
switch 7 is set to "OFF".
6. If the IAC is not to be connected to a computer then it is not
necessar
y
to set an address for it.
7. Once the Application Number is set it must be entered into the
IAC b
y
‘cold startin
g
’ the controller. This is achieved b
y
settin
g
bit
switch 8 to "ON" and then settin
g
bit switch 8 back to "OFF".

10.The IAC application and address has now been set up, the Baud
rate is automaticall

set to 1200 Baud
(
this is done whenever the
controller is cold started
)
.
Notes:
1. Do not set more than one network device to the same address.
2. If a sub-LAN is used then addresses 1 to 31 can
NOT be used on
the main LAN.
