Network Interface
IMPORTANT: Always consult your network
administrator before attempting to connect and
configure a processor for a network interface.
The [SYS] tab menu also includes Network Settings.
The settings must be correctly set before connecting
into a network.
Stacking Multiple Units
If Slave units are not powered up when the Master unit
boots up, the Slave may not be detected for several
minutes. It is good practice to turn on all units simul-
taneously or turn on Slave units before turning on the
Master unit.
Check the LCD display on the Master unit to see if it
has detected all the Slaves.
Check Mode on
the Master unit
to verify the
detection of all
Slaves.
Shown here is 1
of 2.
The Master unit will always be number one in the stack
as shown here, and each slave will be numbered in the
order that it is connected with the cabling of the ASPEN
port jacks.
Software and Firmware
Updates
Check for the latest versions of the control panel soft-
ware and to see that the hardware includes the latest
firmware.
ASPEN models with a front panel LCD will display the
firmware version on the LCD and in the control panel
GUI after the software is installed. Other models display
the firmware version in the GUI only. Firmware updates
require that the ASPEN software be installed to enable
a connection and use the update utility included in the
software.
