6 INTRODUCTION CLICK 650 USER GUIDE
ey are designed to serve as replacements for the Wavetronix full and segmented back-
plates, providing the same functionality with a smaller cabinet footprint.
ese devices provide up to 64 channels of sensor detection output, either to contact clo-
sure devices or directly to the trac controller through SDLC. Utilizing the SDLC con-
nection to compatible controllers potentially removes the need for detector racks and rack
cards, allowing for more cabinet space savings. e provided 64 channels of detection out-
put—which, in a cabinet using traditional equipment, would have required an unrealistic
16 to 32 rack cards—allows for additional sensor functionality such as data collection and
advanced analytics beyond the standard stop bar and advance detection.
ey also provide an Ethernet port for direct connection to local networks. Users can ac-
cess the serial-based sensors using Wavetronix SmartSensor Manager soware over TCP/
IP using a network-connected laptop, tablet, or workstation. e devices also contain the
same contact closure outputs and conguration ports (RS-485, RS-232, USB, T-bus) found
on the Click 600 cabinet interface device, and can serve as a direct replacement for the Click
600 in any application.
How do I use this guide?
Chapter 1 contains a quick start guide with basic steps for installation, conguration, and
management of the Click 650 and 656. e later sections contain more detailed information
about each element of the Click 65x series device hardware and soware, which can be used
as a reference guide for future questions.
