In drops 1Ć55, registers 0Ć31 contain data that an application

program in a corresponding drop has written to them. These

registers are then transmitted to the master and all other slaves on

the network. The number of registers that an application program

can write to is determined by the drop depth assigned to the

DCSĆNET network interface (32 * the drop depth).
For each drop, registers 32Ć63 contain the data that an application

program in the master rack has written to the master DCSĆNET

network module for the particular drop. Consequently, this data is

transmitted from the master to the addressed drop, with the other

drops receiving the data simultaneously. The number of registers

that a master DCSĆNET network module can write data to and then

transmit is 32 registers times the number of drops on the network.

Configuring the AutoMax PC3000 as a

PassiveĆListening DCSĆNET Network

Drop

You can configure the PC3000 as a passiveĆlistening drop on the

DCSĆNET network. This lets you use the AutoMax PC3000 to

monitor:
D DCSĆNET networks that have 55 drops
D network data without changing any network timing relationships
However, the AutoMax PC3000 cannot transmit data on the

DCSĆNET network when it is configured as a passiveĆlistening drop.
Jumper JP4 on the Processor card controls whether the AutoMax

PC3000 is operating as a passiveĆlistening drop. Follow electrostatic

discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the card.

(See section 5.1.)
To configure the AutoMax PC3000 as a passiveĆlistening drop, follow

these steps:
Step 1.

Remove power to the Processor card.

Step 2.

Remove jumper JP4. See figure 12.2. If you need to

remove the card to access the jumper, follow the

procedures in sections 20.2.1 and 20.2.3.
