SETUP

The ARCNET node ID is set using the 8-position DIP switch, SW1. Enter the
binary node ID by choosing either a "0" or "1" for each bit. The least significant
bit (LSB) and the most significant bit (MSB) positions are labeled on the board.
The LSB is toward the top of the board. Leaving the switch in the down position
sets the switch at "0". For example, node ID 200 (0C8H), represented in binary
form as 11002 1000, is set as shown in Table 3:

This card may be installed into any slot of the backplane. However, since the
card is short, it should be installed into one of the shorter slots in the backplane.
This will leave a long slot open for future additional circuit cards.

Use a BNC type “T” connector to interconnect this board to the Microtrac
L A N ’s coaxial cable.

2. Square D SY/LINK SFI-510 Network Interface card (MagneTek part
no. 05P00090-0274) with a cable to connect the RS-422 COMM port on this
board to the PLC COMM port.

Set memory address range to 0D0000H - 0D03FFH by setting the 4-position
DIP switch S1. The setting for each switch is given as “1” or “0”. A “1”
represents a switch setting of CLOSED or ON (depending on how the DIP
switch itself is labeled). A “0” represents a switch setting of OPEN or OFF. Set
switch S1 as follows:

S W I T C H S 1

1 2 3 4

Memory Address Range

0 1 1 0

0D0000H - 0D03FFH

This card may be installed into any long slot of the backplane.

The interfaced PLC must be connected to port P2 of the SY/LINK card in order
for the Interface to write data to the PLC’s registers. The connector at port P2 is
a 9 pin, D-type female connector. This is the RS-422 COMM port which must
be connected to the PLC COMM port.
