Initializing the QS840A Controller
The QS840A is a highly flexible controller with many features. This section outlines
programming the controller using the Hyper Terminal program that is shipped with most IBM
compatible PC's. Connect the cable between the computer RS-232 port, and the QS840A
System Controller RS-232 port, J3. After Hyper Terminal has started and the programming
cable is connected to the controller and the PC, you should see the login screen that allows
access to the QS840A programming features.
RS-232 Terminal/Modem Port
This interface provides a T1.317 interface for local or dial-out access. The local port DTR
signal switches the port personality from modem to terminal. This interface provides access to
all status, configuration, and operations. It also provides call-out on alarm capability.
The controller communicates with the modem using the following settings:
Baud Rate: 2400
Data Bits: 8
Stop Bits: 1
Parity: None
Two levels of security protect incoming access: user and super-user. A user has read ability
and can only get status information from the CPS6000. A super-user can change
configurations and perform control operations. All access to CPS6000 is via the T1.317
command set, to be discussed later.
This section describes how to log into the system via an RS-232 local port. The first step to
logging in is to get to an “ENTER PASSWORD:” prompt. From a terminal connected to the
RS-232 port, simply press ENTER until you see the log-in prompt. The number of ENTER
keys required will depend on the baud rate you are trying to connect at. The controller will
adjust its baud rate automatically until it recognizes the carriage return character (ASCII 13)
sent by pressing ENTER.
At the “ENTER PASSWORD:” prompt, type the user or super-user password. The default
password for each level of security is listed below.
Default user password - lineage
Default super-user password - super-user
Default administrator password - administrator
