name, to identify it in the system. This can be done using configuration switches A0-A2, or by using the

software command SET DN. For example, to set the name of a controller to "A" you would use the following

command: SET DN = "A". The factory default name is "!". To set the address of the controller using the

configuration switches use the following table:

In setting up your system for PARTY operation the most practical approach would be to observe the

following steps:

1. Connect the Host Control Module to the Host PC configured for single mode operation.

2. Establish communications with the HOST Control Module. (For help in doing this see Software

Reference: Using the LYNX Terminal.) Using the Command: SET DN or the configuration

switches, give the controller a unique name. If using the software command this can be any

upper or lower case ASCII character or number 0-9. Save the name using the command SAVE.

3. Set the appropriate HOST and PARTY configuration in accordance with the table and diagram

below. Remove power.

4. Connect the next control module in the system in accordance with the following table and

diagram, setting the PARTY switch in the ON position. If you desire you can set the PARTY

Flag to “1” in software later and turn the switch off.

5. Establish communications with this module using the factory default name “!”. This name

cannot be reused. Rename and save the new name. Remove power.

6. Repeat the last two steps for each additional control module in the system.

NOTE: If using the RS-232 Interface Option, the Host PC MUST

be less than 50 feet from the Control Module. If your system

will be greater than 50 feet from the Host PC you must use the

RS-485/RS485 Interface.

WARNING! Failure to connect communications ground as

shown may result in damage to the Control Module and/or Host!
