7. According to VAPs layout plan (as explained in section 3.4.2) connect the Ethernet switch
cables (See section
4.3 for more detailed explanation).
• If the requested jack is already in use, disconnect it from the Ethernet switch and re-
connect it to the corresponding Ethernet port in the Slave VCU front panel.
Note 1: After the Slave VCUs are connected (according to section
4.2.2), verify that that the
Master VCU VAP Status LEDs which correspond to the connected Slave VCUs complete
initialization (blinking light) and show a solid green light.
Note 2: When functioning as a Master VCU and supporting only Slaves (no VAPs), the control
units’ Ethernet Ports are not relevant. The Ethernet ports are only relevant when supporting
mixed mode – Slave VCUs and VAPs
4.2.1.1 Master/Stand-Alone VCU Alarm Output Connections
Note: For Master/Slave VCU configuration, the Alarms are relevant only for the Master VCU.
The auxiliary connections are performed through the Master VCU rear panel Alarms port. See
following figure.
The controller can provide Major and Minor Output Alarms. These alarms can be connected
directly to either the auxiliary input of the Base Station or to any additional dry-contact
application.
A Major Alarm is generated when there is an alarm condition in one or more VCUs, while a Minor
Alarm is generated when there is an alarm condition in one or more of the VAPs.
Note: If only one alarm is required (Minor or Major) an external connection of a wire jumper
between pins 8 and 13 is necessary (Normally closed).
