Communication Settings

Before Applying Power

In order to have a trouble free start-up, it is important to follow a
few simple procedures. Before applying power for the fi rst time, it
is very important to correctly address the controller and run through
a few simple checks.

Communication Settings

Stand Alone Operation

The GPC-XP has an on-board CommLink that is used during Stand-
Alone Operation. When confi gured for Stand-Alone operation, a
computer running Prism 2 software can be connected directly to the
USB port located at the bottom of the GPC-XP for programming
and monitoring. In order to operate in Stand-Alone Mode, two
things need to be set. First, both CommLink Jumpers found on the
upper left hand side of the board need to be set to ON. See Figure

3

below

for details. Second, the Baud Rate determined by setting

ADDRESS Dipswitches 7 and 8 needs to be set to OFF/ON. See
Figure 4, page 8 for details.

NOTE: If using the Internal CommLink, you must set up

the USB drivers. See Appendix B, page 52.

Network Operation

The GPC-XP can be confi gured for connection to a networked system
that has an external CommLink. In this case, the on-board CommLink
would not be used. For this confi guration, two things need to be set.
First, both CommLink Jumpers found on the upper left found on the
upper left hand side of the board need to be set to OFF. See Figure
3

below

for details. Second, the Baud Rate determined by setting

ADDRESS Dipswitches 7 and 8 needs to be set to OFF/OFF if us-
ing a CommLink IV and to OFF/ON if using a CommLink 5. See
Figure 4, page 8 for details.
