Networking instructions for the Maguire
WSB Blender
Installing the PLC hardware
The first step is that you must install the Ethernet module and cable for
every blender.
*Ethernet Module ACS Part # 724.00872.00 (Digi One SP)
*Ethernet Module Wall Mount ACS Part # 724.00873.00
*Module Cable ACS Part # A0565856 (10' DB9F-DB9F straight cable)
This module should be mounted to either the blender frame or a nearby
structure using the purchased Wall Mount. The module comes with a wall
transformer that you must plug into a 115 VAC grounded 3-prong
receptacle. The module will connect to the blender via the purchased 10’
cable and will connect to your network via its RJ45 Ethernet port.
You will also need to make sure that you are running at least 80609A
(4/14/1998) or newer blender software (this is displayed after powering on
the Maguire blender). Refer to Maguire for software upgrades.
CHANGING THE BAUD RATE ON THE MAGUIRE TO 2400 (RECOMMENDED FOR A3):
• You must have software dated March 31, 2000 (version 00331X) or newer, if not contact Maguire for update
• From Maguire controller hit “*”, then “22222” (if you haven’t modified the password)
• Next hit “*95”
• If the software is new enough you will see “baud=1200” or “baud=2400”, hit “*” to change, then hit “exit”
twice.
• Reboot the Maguire controller if you’ve changed it.
•
Be sure to save your new configuration to the Maguire EEPROM (see side of Maguire controller for details).
Follow the instructions on page 30 to setup and configure the Digi One SP
Ethernet Module.
