7.2. Remote Comms Channel/Gang Mode (Page 1)
The Comms page lets you select either the communications channel on which the unit will
send/receive data to/from a controlling PC, or the gang mode for working with ganged input or output
channels.
Comms channels 1 to 32 are available enabling a slave network of up to 16 DN9848E units to be
remotely controlled from a PC using the Elgar Library Manager and HELIX DN9848E RCS add-in
software. For more information on DN9848E remote control set ups, see Section 9.
Note that, when using Ethernet communication you will need to set up the unit's IP address and
Subnet mask before selecting the comms channel, see Section 7.11 for further details.
Also, note that remote comms and gang mode are mutually exclusive as channel ganging is a feature
of stand alone unit operation only and is not compatible with the grouping facility offered in the Elgar
9848E Remote Control Software add-in. For more information on channel ganging, see Section 7.3.
