Console Installation
Some options require purchasing. To inquire about changing options to a Model 4010
console already in service, please contact Zetron's Technical Support.
Configuring Dual Channel Cards
Now that the system slot map has been developed, you know the allocation of channels
and you can configure each Dual Channel Card (DCC) to meet the requirements of the
channel pairs. Card configuration is usually performed at the Zetron factory to comply
with the customer's system configuration request, but it must be checked when installed at
the end user's site. The following will be useful for understanding the options available
and for system modifications or additions.
The first step is to label each card with your names for channel A and B. This is helpful so
that once configuration and adjustments have been made, the card will not be placed in a
wrong slot, which probably has different configuration and adjustment requirements.
Channel Type
Each channel in the Model 4010 can be programmed to be one of three control types:
Local, Tone, or DC. This programming is performed using CPSW software. Refer to
Channel Configuration
In addition to programming, there are some jumper and switch settings that must be
reviewed.
Local Control
This is the default for all channels and no additional hardware is required. If a Tone
Remote Adapter is installed, then the DCC's Guard Tone Enable jumpers (JP4 and JP6)
must be set to position A to disable the low-level guard tone.
Tone Control
To have any tone control channels, a Tone Remote Adapter must be installed (only one is
required for all channels). In addition to programming, the DCC's Guard Tone Enable
jumpers (JP4 and JP6) must be set to position B.
DC Control
For a channel to be DC controlled, the DC remote adapter board must be installed. One
adapter is required for each channel that is to be set to DC. Jumpers (JP4 and/or JP6) must
be in the A or Local position; however, if a DC module is installed on a channel defined in
CPSW as local, a card error will be displayed on the console. Programming allows the DC
type to be set as momentary or constant.
