Binding View

Binding View allows you to assess the status of the
network and all the devices connected as a whole, or the
status of individual devices by using status icons and
function buttons.
Binding View is essentially a table depicting what devices
and options are actually discovered on the network bus
(and their communication status) versus what is required
to support the configuration defined by the feature codes

Replacing or Adding Devices
If a device is communicating but incorrectly configured, it
might not be necessary to replace it. If the problem with
the device is related to communication, attempt to rebind
it, and if the device becomes correctly configured, it will
then communicate properly.
If a device that needs to be replaced is still communicating,
it should be unbound. Otherwise, it will be necessary to
rebuild the CH530 network image for Binding View to
discover that it has been removed. An unbound device
stops communicating and allows a new device to be
bound in its place.
It is good practice to turn the power off while detaching
and attaching devices to the CH530 network. Be sure to
keep power on the service tool computer. After power is
restored to the CH530 network, the reconnect function in
BindingView restores communication with the network. If
the service tool computer is turned off, you must restart
TechView and Binding View.
If a device is not communicating, the binding function
displays a window to request manual selection of the
device to be bound. Previously-selected devices are
deselected when the function starts. When manual

and categories. Binding View allows you to add, remove,
modify, verify, and reassign devices and options in order
to match the configuration requirements.
Whenever a device is installed, it must be correctly
configured to communicate and to function as intended.
This process is called binding. Some features of Binding
View are intended to serve a second purpose; that is
diagnosing problems with communication among the
devices.
selection is confirmed, exactly one device must be
selected; if it is the correct type, it is bound. If the desired
device cannot be selected or if multiple devices are
accidentally selected, you can close the manual selection
window by clicking on No and repeat the bind function.
