Accessing Drives on the RTU Master (Serial Multi-drop) Network
Using DriveExecutive software enables you to monitor, configure, and
control any of the drives on the RTU Master (serial multi-drop) network.
You can also monitor and configure the 1203-USB converter.
1. Apply power to all of the drives on the RTU Master network.
2. From the Drive menu in the DriveExecutive window, choose Connect to
Drive to display the Connect to Drive window.
3. Expand the treeview in the left pane to display either the ‘Unrecognized
Device’ icons (which represent the drives) or the ‘DSI’ icons.
The window should look similar to the example shown below.
4. Select the drive to which you want to connect to (for this example, the
node address 01 drive).
5. Click OK.
DriveExecutive software uploads the drive information and displays its
online dialog box. An example is shown below.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each remaining drive on the network.
TIP: If the drive information does not exist on the computer or is different
than existing information on the computer, DriveExecutive software will
automatically create a database file for the drive before displaying its online
dialog box.
