1. Enter the DTC name in the “DTC name” ﬁeld.

2. Enter the DTC’s node name in the “DTC node name” ﬁeld.

3. Enter the card type for each card in the DTC with nailed devices.

(Printers and UPSs, and any terminals that will be accessed

programmatically are nailed devices.)

Note that DTC 16iX/16MX/16RX does not have cards since its port

connectors are built directly onto the DTC backplane.

Refer to Chapter 2, “Before Conﬁguring Terminal and Printer

Connections,” for more information on card types for each DTC.

4. Press the

[Save Data] function key.

5. To conﬁgure a card in the DTC, enter the card number in the “To

configure a card, enter a card number ...” ﬁeld.

You only need to conﬁgure a card if the card contains nailed devices.

Press the [Conﬁg Card] function key. Proceed to step 7: Conﬁgure

DTC Cards.
