Configuring the Island Bus

Auto-Configuration

Introduction

All Advantys STB I/O modules are shipped with a set of predefined parameters that

 

allow an island to be operational as soon as it is initialized. This ability of island

 

modules to operate with default parameters is known as auto-configuration. Once

 

an island bus has been installed, you can begin using it as a node on that network.

About Auto-

 

Auto-configuration occurs when:

Configuration

￿You power up an island for the first time.

 

You push the RST button.

 

As part of the auto-configuration process, the NIM checks each module and

 

confirms that it has been properly connected to the island bus. The NIM stores the

 

default operating parameters for each module in Flash memory.
