Interaction Between Odc And Another Odc Or 116 - Tech Works MC-IP Series Manual

Interaction between ODC and another ODC or 116 is determined by how each one is
programmed to act. The MC-IP-HOST is programmed using the Tech Works Mc
Configuration software. The following section describes how to use it. The Station
Configuration screen below has 32 tabs across the top, one for each MC-IP-116. Each 116
connects to up to 16 Stations. Each screen shows the configuration of the 16 Stations
connected to that 116 and the options for that Station.
Each MC-IP-116 has a rotary switch which assigns it a system Identification (ID)
of 0-F (hex) which is 15. So, A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, and F=15. To set
the 116 to ID 16-31 you set the ID shift jumper P5 to "ON" and then set the rotary
switch to 0=16, 1=17, 2=18, 3=19, 4=20, 5=21, 6=22, 7=23, 8=24, 9=25, A=26,
B=27, C=28, D=29, E=30, F=31. The ID shift jumper and address switch are only
read on "BOOT" Strap and that is when they receive their individual settings from the HOST.
If you change the address you must, CYCLE POWER.
Static protection such as static bracelets MUST be used at all times when any of the
products are opened and vulnerable to electrostatic discharge.
The installer sets the rotary switch at the time of installation to tell the system which Station
Group it is. Once the 116 is connected to the MC-IP Network, the MC-IP-HOST automatically
gets the 116's ID and sends the configuration to the 116. The 116 is now configured and
ready to be used. The configuration for each 116 is set up in the HOST using the following
screens.
First select the 116 that you wish to configure by clicking the tab at the top of the screen. The
screen below is for setting up MC-IP-116 #0 which is technically the 1
the first 116 is #0. You will see that the Station ID for those Stations associated with 116 #2
are 32-47. This is because the Station ID is assigned in sequence of 116 #0 = Station ID 0-
15, 116 #1 = Station ID 16-31, 116 #2 = Station ID 32-47 and #3 = 48-63, etc., until MC-IP-
116 #15 = Station ID 240-255. There are a total of 512 Stations and 32 ODCs per system.
Station IDs are 0-511 and ODC IDs are 0-31.
Any Station can call any ODC or any combination of ODCs. Technically any ODC could call
any Station but you would typically not set up a control screen for any Station or Page Zone
that is not assigned to call an ODC. However, if a Central Command Control wanted to
monitor all system activity, a screen could just as easily be set up to monitor all calls and Call
any or all Stations.
