The Plus-X Integrated Command Relay Unit is used to connect site equipment to the ARC Plus. Each Plus-X ICRU connects up 16 relays or 8 pairs of raise/lower relay outputs. Plus-X ICRU units are connected to the ARC Plus via LAN or WAN. Up to 32 Plus-X devices can be connected to each ARC Plus.
* Hostnames can be used in either upper or lower case. Initial Connection Using DHCP Connect the Plus-X ICRU to your LAN and apply power. If this is the first power-up for a new unit or the first network connection after execution of a master-initialization, the Plus-X ICRU will issue a DHCP request for an IP address.
If your network does not support the DHCP protocol, the Plus-X ICRU’s request for a dynamic IP address will fail. If this happens, the Plus-X ICRU will assign itself the default static IP address of 192.168.0.100. To access the unit, it will be necessary to connect your PC directly to the Plus-X device using a crossover LAN cable or using a simple Ethernet switch.
Select “Use the following IP address:” and enter an address of the form 192.168.0.x, where x is any value between 1 and 255 except 100 which is the Plus-X default IP address. Also set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 as shown above. Check the box “validate settings upon exit”...
Connecting the Plus-X ICRU to the ARC Plus If you have not already done so, install the Plus-X ICRU in the equipment rack. If you wish, you may distribute Plus-X units in multiple racks, or at different locations. To add the channels from the Plus-X ICRU to the ARC Plus: 1.
IP address and Port, as already configured on the Plus-X ICRU. 4. Check the box marked Map Default Set of Channels to add all channels for this Plus-X unit to the ARC Plus and enter a starting channel number for assignment of these channels in the ARC Plus.
