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, “Preparing to Configure DTCs,” 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.
