EkoLink II

1.9 System Verification and Initialization

If all the previous steps have been followed carefully, the EkoLink II system is now

ready for verification and initialization. Connect to the Hub via serial cable or

modem.

Note that if no master controller is present, the user will connect to the “HUB

RS232” connector located on the rear of each Hub. If the Master Controller

module was purchased, the user can connect to the “Master RS232” port located

on the front of the Master Hub.

The standard terminal settings are:

• 9600 Baud

• 8 Data bits

• 1 Stop bit

• No flow control

• No Parity

If you are unfamiliar with serial communications, please refer to Appendix A

of the Operator’s Manual for a step by step guide to connecting to the Hub.

1. At the Hub, apply power to the system by turning the power to the

“on” position. The Hub LEDs should be green if everything is functioning

properly. If any of the LEDs are flashing, there is an alarm condition and

you should refer to the Operator’s Manual to troubleshoot the problem.

2. Note that, any unused ports on the Hub will indicate an alarm

condition until the user commands the Hub to ignore those ports. Please

refer to the System Initialization section of the Operator’s Manual for further

details. Each Remote has one alarm LED. When power is first applied to

the Remote, its LED will be amber for a period of 10 seconds. After the

initial period, the LED will indicate either an alarmed condition or normal

operation. A solid green LED indication on the Remote is normal and

means that everything is functioning properly. If any of the Remote LEDs

are not green, there is an alarm condition. Refer to the Operator’s Manual

to troubleshoot the problem.
