In-depth Information on DME Units Connecting to External Devices Optional Extras ICP1, CP4SF, CP1SF, and CP4SW controllers are available as optional extras for remote external control of the DME units. For details regarding installation of a control panel and connection to the DME unit, please refer to the owner's manual that came with the control panel. • Connection via Ethernet Intelligent Control Panel ICP1 • Connection via General Purpose Interface (GPI) Control Panel CP4SF, Control Panel CP1SF, or Control Panel CP4SW Tips Whenever making GPI settings, check for responses using the GPI Setup page. The GPI Setup page from the DME unit's Utility Display can be used to monitor in real time the signals being input via the GPI IN terminal. This can prove extremely useful in identifying the cause of GPI control problems after configuration as being within the GPI device, within the connections, or within the DME configuration. If the DME unit fails to operate as required even though a signal is returned to the GPI IN terminal, the prob- ICP1 CP4SF CP1SF CP4SW lem probably lies in the configuration data, or although unlikely, in the DME unit itself. As this page can be used to check for GPI responses when making GPI settings, it can be employed to great effect. Maximum length of GPI cables CPEV cables with a core diameter of 0.65 mm or more can be used over distances of up to 100 m. Setting up DME64N/24N Networks via Panel Operations Device group and IP address settings for DME64N and DME24N units can be made directly via their front panels as follows. 1. Turn on the DME64N/24N. 2 2. Press the [HOME] key to display the main screen. 3 3. Press and hold the [UTILITY] key for at least 2 seconds to display the Utility screen. 4 4. Press the [UTILITY] key several times until the Net page appears. 5. Use the [˛] and [˝] keys to move the cursor to the parameters listed below and press the [ENTER] key. The corresponding editing dialog will appear. Set each of the following parameters as described and press the [ENTER] key each time to confirm and enter the settings. • Master/Slave This parameter sets device-group master or slave status. Master: One DME unit must be assigned as the master in each device group. Slave: All other DME units in the group should be set to slave. Note: When DME64N/24N and DME Satellite units are combined in a device group, be sure to assign a DME Satellite unit as the group master. • IP Address This parameter sets the IP address of the DME unit in question. All DME units in the same device group must share the same network address. Notes: 1. When only one DME unit (Master) is used, the IP address should be set to "192.168.0.2". 2. The subnet mask is fixed at "255.255.255.0". 3. The host address can be set between 2 and 253 for the master device, and between 3 and 253 for slaves. 4. Unless it is absolutely necessary to use a global IP address, you should always use a private address (that is, 192.168.0.2. through 192.168.255.253). Consult with your network administrator if a global address must be used. • Master ID When a device is assigned as a slave using Master/Slave above, this parameter sets the host address for the corresponding master. Setting of this parameter is not possible when the DME unit in question is assigned as the master. • Link Mode Ensure that "100Base-TX" is selected for this parameter. 6. Press the [HOME] key to return and save your changes.
