Configuring the XM EODS

This chapter provides information to help you configure your XM Electronic
Overspeed Detection System using the XM Serial Configuration Utility
software.

Please refer to XM-220 Dual Speed Module User Guide for a complete list and
description of the configuration parameters. Descriptions on how to navigate
through the software as well as the software screens are contained in the XM
Serial Configuration Utility online help. Refer to the XM Serial Configuration
Utility Getting Results Guide for additional assistance.

Configuration Overview

Configuring the XM EODS consists of setting the parameters for the three
XM-220 modules. The XM-442 module has no configurable parameters.

The XM-220 modules can be configured using the XM Serial Configuration
Utility software and a personal computer. If the module is installed on a
DeviceNet network, configuring can also be performed using a network
configuration tool such as RSNetWorx (Version 3.0 or later). Refer to the
XM-220 Dual Speed Module User Guide for information about the
DeviceNet connection.

The XM Serial Configuration Utility is a Windows® application program that
allows you to configure and view live data from any XM module. It is packaged
with your XM EODS and runs as a stand-alone program on a computer
connected directly to the XM-220 module. To configure your XM-220
modules using the XM Serial Configuration Utility software, you must:

• Install the XM Serial Configuration Utility software onto the computer

that will be connected directly to the XM-220 module. Refer to the
XM-442 Voted EODS Relay Module Installation Instructions
(publication GMSI10-UM016) for assistance.

TIP

The XM User Guides and the Getting Results Guide can
be found on the XM Documentation and Configuration
Utility CD, which is packaged with your XM modules.
