First Start; Initialising The Instrument In A Nexus Network; Re-Initialising The Instrument - Nexus Compass Data Installation And Operation Manual

First start

At each power on, the instrument will first show all segments lit up, then
the ID number and software version [VER]. Number 8 is the fixed ID
when the Compass transducer is connected direct at the instrument and
the setting in C71 is on (default setting).
3.1

Initialising the instrument in a Nexus Network

At the first power on after installation, you will be asked to press KEY
[PrSKEY]. This will give the instrument a logical ID number from 16 and
upwards on the Nexus Network.
To initialise the instrument, press KEY, one at a time, on all installed
digital instruments,.
Note: Always wait for the text "Init OK"
to be displayed, before you press KEY
on the next instrument!
The Server automatically gives the first unit ID number 16, then 17 and
so on. The order in which you press KEY, will be the same order as the
instruments will be addressed by the Remote Control, if used.
The example shows that the instrument version number is 1.00 and the
given logical ID number is 16. The ID number will always be 8 if the
Compass transducer is connected to this instrument. If the instrument is
a repeater, it may have any number from 16 and up.
3.2

Re-initialising the instrument

If and when two instruments by mistake have the same ID number, you
must re-initialise the instruments to avoid network disturbance and
blockage of data.
To re-initialise the instrument, press DOWN and UP together during the
power up sequence, i.e. when version and ID numbers are displayed.
The display test is then re-started on all instruments and you will be
asked to press KEY on each instrument as explained above.
Note! If you do not succeed to re-initialise, we suggest you disconnect
(just pull out the connection plug) all, except one of the instruments that
had the same ID number, then repeat the above procedure. Reinstall the
instruments and redo the "PRESKEY" procedure.
