Enable links and processor channels

You must enable links and processor channels before the connections can be used.

To enable a link, open its data module screen (ch da [ext]) and set the Enable

Link? field to y.

[note: to view a list of assigned data modules and their extensions, enter the “list data-module” command ( l da)]

To enable the processor channels, open the processor channel screen (ch com p) and set the Enable field to y for each assigned processor channel.

Note: 1. You must disable a link or processor channel before you can change its parameters.

Note: 2. The busy-outcommand overrules the data module Enable Link? field.

Note: 3. On the C-LAN boards, low-level connectivity can remain intact when higher-level applications such as DCS are not functioning. For example, an external ping to a C-LAN’s ethernet port could be successful even when the board is busied-out. When debugging connectivity problems, pinging only checks low-level connectivity.
