equipment while offering flexibility in control points and communication links. This Quick Start guide will take
you through each step of installing and connecting to your GSC3000 system. The Installation and Operations
manual contains a system overview and diagrams of all included equipment, as well as details on the system's
advanced features.
ADDING A NEW I/O UNIT TO AN EXISTING SITE
If you are connecting a new I/O unit to an existing GSC3000 installation, most of your software and hardware
setup is already complete. To connect a new unit to an existing site:
1. Change the unit number on the new I/O unit to one that is not already used at your site. See step 7 in
section A, below.
2. Link the new I/O unit to an existing I/O unit using the included RJ-45 G-Bus jumper cable, and set up the
Unit Configuration for your new unit. See steps 8-10 in section A, below.
3. Connect your input and command channels. See steps 3-4 in section B, below.

registration link from the Downloads section of the Burk Technology web site. When you register your
product, the CD key will be sent to you via email.
