Transceiver Setup

Click Add Transceiver Button, then click Modify.

1.Enter the area of the shop where the transceiver is located (i.e., Main Shop, Fast Lube Shop, Engine Department) in the Transceiver Name field.

2.The Network ID is a letter designation for the Trans- ceiver network identification. The default is (A). There are eight network ID’s available designated with the letters A through H. Type in the selected Network ID.

The Network ID letter for a given Transceiver must match that Transceiver’s dipswitch set- tings.

3.Transceiver ID is a letter designation for the Trans- ceiver Identification. The default is (A). There are eight Transceiver ID’s available designated with the letters A through H.

The Transceiver ID letter for a given Transceiver must match that Transceivers equivalent dip- switch settings.

4.Serial Port is a pull down menu of all available com- munication ports on the Matrix PC. COM 1 is the default setting. If COM 1 is not available, select an open port from the pull down list.

Some computers may not have any serial ports. In this case a USB converter will be required to obtain serial ports. Graco recommends Edge- port models from B & B Electronics.

If you attempt to add a Transceiver and the PC has no COM ports available, an error message appears. Contact your IT professional or add serial ports using the USB convertors recom- mended by Graco. See page 4 for additional information.

Firmware Revision is the Transceiver firmware revision level.

Transceiver Power-up

Graco recommends that when you plug in the power cord to the transceiver, do it with the PC serial cable already plugged in.

System Administrator Screens

Confirm PC/Transceiver Communication

Each time a transceiver is powered up, it reads its dip switch settings for Network ID and Transceiver ID and sends this information to the PC. It also sends the trans- ceiver’s firmware revision level. These settings are dis- played as “Last Power-up Settings” and “Firmware Revision” on this screen. If these fields are “N/A”, it means that the transceiver has never (successfully) communicated with the PC.

One way to confirm that the serial connection between PC and transceiver is functioning properly is to change the transceiver dip switch settings and verify that the PC software reflects the new settings. Refer to the trans- ceiver manual on how to set transceiver dip switches.

Example:

A Matrix system has a single transceiver, the desired settings on the transceiver setup screen (FIG. 66) are Network ID = A, Transceiver ID = A, and Serial Port = COM1 (factory defaults).

FIG. 66

1.If it’s open, close the transceiver setup screen (FIG. 66).

2.Power off the transceiver.

3.Set the transceiver dipswitch settings to: Network ID = H

Transceiver ID = H

Refer to transceiver manual 309498 for instructions.

4.With one end of the serial cable already plugged into the PC and the other end in the transceiver, power up the transceiver.
