The PC must be running version 2.08.01 or later of AZedit and have an Ethernet card installed. The MCII-e can support up to 32 concurrent sessions of AZedit on Ethernet. Verify the MCII-e is connected to the PC using a RS232 (ADAM standard) cable. Connect J1 on the XCP-ADAM-MC to the COM port on the PC.

NOTE: If the MCII-e will communicate with hosts outside its network, enter the IP address of a host or router which will serve as the Gateway. Otherwise, if the MCII-e only needs to communicate with the local network, leave the Default Gateway field at its default setting (0.0.0.0).
In the Connection area, select the Network radio button. In the IP Address field, either enter the MCII-e IP Address you wish to connect with, or click the Search button The search button scans the network for any MCII-e devices. If multiple units are on the network, each will appear in the list.

If there is any disruption in the communications link during the download, you will get an error message. In this case, repeat the download. When the file has been completely downloaded, the MCII-e System Controller will begin processing the update. IMPORTANT! Any disruption at this point, such as loss of power, removing or resetting cards may result in Master Controller failure.
Accessories Accessories Connection Diagram. The 68-pin SCSI can be attached to the figure 6. XCP-ADAM-MC. NOTE: AZedit sessions are only enabled on J9 or J10 when the advanced communication boxes are enabled from “communications” screen and the correct baud rates are configured. XCP-ADAM-MC Master Controller Breakout Panel The XCP-ADAM-MC Breakout Panel allows many different peripherals to be connected to the master controller of an ADAM Intercom System, such as AZedit, trunking systems, UIOs, PAPs, LCPs, GPI/Os, etc.
Accessories relays can be assigned for activation from keypanel keys, and can be used to control lighting, or to key remote transmitters, paging systems, etc. Program Assist Panels provide a fast and easy method of selecting any of several program sources (connected to input ports of the intercom system) for use with the IFB outputs feature of the intercom system.
