3.7 Adding a SimNet product to an existing
SimNet system
Adding a transducer (data source) to the
existing network
1. If it is a source for a DataType that is not available on
SimNet, it will be automatically detected and selected.
2. If it is an additional source for a DataType already
available on SimNet it will be detected but not
automatically selected. You have to make a manual
selection if you want it to be a source.
Adding a Class 1 product
When you add a Class 1 product to an existing SimNet system it
will ask you to power up all SimNet products. It will then detect
whether it is connected to a Class 1 system or not.
Note ! If it is a replacement product (has been setup before) it must be
given a “Master Reset” or “Source Reset” before it is connected
to SimNet.
Class 1 product to Class 1 system
The Class 1 product will adapt to the Simrad group source
selections that are already made, and it will automatically add to
SimNet (selections of) new sources not previously available or
used.
Class 1 product to Class 2 system
The Class 1 product will upgrade the SimNet Class 2 system to
Class 1 and make a new automatic source selection.
Note ! Follow the instructions on a Class 1 product and power on all
products in the system to let all sources be automatically
selected.
Adding a Class 2 product
If it is a replacement product (has been setup before) it must be
given a “Master Reset” or “Source Reset” before it is connected
to SimNet.
