The XI581AH mounts on the front of an Excel 500 or 600 Controller at installation
time and requires no further connection.
When the Controller is powered, the XI581AH is also powered.
If the Controller is off and then powered on, the XI581AH displays a message about
the power failure. Use the Cancel key (C) to acknowledge the message. The next
screen is the Main Menu. See "Screen Displays" (page 8) for details.
The XI582AH requires the connection and routing of an XW564, XW565, XW582, or
XW583 Cable. If your XI582AH does not already have a connected cable, see
Appendix A: Hardware Setup, and Excel 500 Installation Instructions (form number
EN1R-1047) or Excel 100C Installation Instructions (form number EN1R-144) for
connection details.

Use this cable if the XI582AH is permanently connected to an
Excel 100C. With the XW582 connected, the cover of the Excel 100C cannot be
closed.
When the operator terminal has a connected cable, you can move it to any con-
troller and attach it. If the controller has buswide capability, you can leave the
XI582AH attached to it and then access other controllers on the bus via remote
login.
For information about connecting to various controllers, see below. After connec-
tion, see "Screen Displays" (page 8) for details on XI582AH screen displays.
• Excel 100C Controllers have a RS232 serial port connection at the bottom of the
device as shown in the following diagram. An additional serial port connection is
provided at the terminals on the base of the Excel 100C. A port selector switch is
located on the front to select front or rear port (see below).
IMPORTANT
It is imperative that the Excel 100C Controller's port selector switch be
properly set. Thus, after having operated an MMI via the front port, the
switch has to be set back to its left position to reactivate a modem being
