4.11 Configuring SBUS Modules

This section describes how to configure any system hardware modules that have been added to the system.
4.11.1 Assigning Module IDs
When installing a hardware module (see Table 4.1 for list of compatible SBUS devices), you must use the DIP switches on the module to
assign an ID# to the module. Address zero is an invalid address and is not allowed.
Figure 4.38 shows all possible DIP switch positions and their correlation to a numerical ID. For example, to select ID 2, place DIP
switch 2 in the up position.
4.11.2 SBUS Bandwidth Considerations
Each SBUS device generates a certain amount of traffic on the SBUS. Generally, the amount of traffic generated depends on the type of
SBUS device. To help you figure out the SBUS bandwidth usage of a given collection of devices, a tool is available on the Honeywell
Silent Knight website (www.silentknight.com). The tool will serve as a guide to help determine how heavily loaded an SBUS is with
respect to bandwidth. We recommend you use this tool if you plan to have more than eight SBUS devices per SBUS. Remember to
include devices that are on 5859XL SBUS repeaters in your list of devices for SBUS bandwidth calculations.

4.12 Telephone Connection

Connect the telephone lines as shown in Figure 4.39. The Model 7860 phone cord is available from Honeywell Silent Knight for this
purpose.
