3. Plug the converter’s RS-232 25-pin connector into the COM port you
selected for multi-unit configuration during installation of the CMRV
software. If you are using COM 1, a DB-25 to 9-pin adaptor may be
required.
4. Select a CMRV unit as the first in the “daisy chain” and attach the
three wires from the converter to the ABG connection marked IN on
the RS-485 port on the back of the first CMRV chassis as follows
(see diagram):
Attach the red wire to IN-A.
Attach the white or brown
wire to IN-B.
Attach the black wire to IN-G.
5. Set an Instrument Address for
the first CMRV unit using the
SELECT dial above the RS-485 port on the
CMRV chassis.
6. Locate one of the 8' cables included with the
interface kit.
7. Connect one end of the cable to the RS-485 port on the first CMRV
unit as follows:
Attach the red wire to OUT-A, the white/brown wire to OUT-B, and
the black wire to OUT-G.
8. Connect the other end of the cable to the second CMRV chassis by
attaching the red wire to IN-A, the white/brown wire to IN-B, and the
black wire to IN-G.
9. Set an Instrument Address for the second CMRV unit using the
SELECT dial above the RS-485 port on the CMRV chassis. The
address must be different than that of the first CMRV.
10. To daisy-chain additional CMRV units (up to a total of four), use
additional lengths of cable provided with the interface kit and
continue in the manner described in steps 6-9. Make sure to select a
unique instrument address for each CMRV added to the chain.
NOTE
Each additional CMRV should be connected to the previous CMRV in the
daisy-chain.
11. When all CMRV units have been connected, plug the converter
power supply into an appropriate electrical outlet to complete your
installation. Check serial connections by running a cleaning cycle on
all instruments per manual instructions.
