4.2.2 Programming an SC8016 Account into the SC9000
There are two Radio Communicator setup pages for all SC8016 accounts. The Remote Setup Menus allow the operator
to enter the programming parameters necessary to bring an SC8016 online. All account parameters contained in the
Remote Setup Menus are transmitted via the SAFECOM network to the SC8016 in the field. These parameters are
downloaded into the SC8016 to establish the operating characteristics for that SC8016.
SC8016 Radio Communicator Account Setup Menu #1
Refer to the following illustration of the Setup Menu #1:
The parameters required to be programmed are shown in the illustration in bold type and described below:
•
CPU S/N- The serial number of the SC8016 CPU (this number is listed on the main label inside the SC8016 on the
CPU chip on the main board). The CPU S/N allows the SC9000 to identify new or initialized Radio Communicators
prior to download. Once the SC8016 is downloaded as a valid account, the SC9000 identifies SC8016 by their
assigned Radio Communicator account number.
•
PID (Product ID) - The number of the SC8016 Firmware version. The PID allows the SC9000 to identify the type of
SAFECOM product (SC8016 or SC2104) associated with the selected Radio Communicator account number. A valid
PID # is required to be entered before the SC9000 computer will allow access to any further Setup menus. The PID #
appears on the panel label attached to the inside of the SC8016 panel ,EEPROM located on the SC8016 circuit
board.
•
Framer - The Communications Framer number assigned to this SC8016. The Framer contains the Radio Timing
Parameters. The Framer and the RF Channel work together to define how this Radio Communicator unit will
communicate with your central station. EXAMPLE: U.L. certificated accounts must have a higher degree of security
than would a residential account. Up to 7 framers may be configured per channel, though most SAFECOM radio
accounts use a common framer number. Framer "0 " is reserved for deactivated Radio Communicators, or Radio
Communicators you do not want to communicate with.
•
Channel - 1 to 8: The RF Channel number assigned to this SC8016 for radio communications with the SC9000
computer. The standard configuration for the SC9000 computer is for a single RF Channel., like one repeater. With
the installation of a SAFECOM Multi Port (4 or 8) Expansion Board, the SC9000 can communicate through up to 8
repeaters. Repeaters can be thought of as coverage areas. Channel 1 is usually reserved for repeater 1 and so on. If
there is any question as to the number of channels you have available on your system, simply look at the lower left
hand side of the screen to the Channel Activity screen. If there is more than one set of “TX” and “RX” on the screen
then you have a multi-channel system. Your channels equal the number of “TX” “RX” pairs displayed.
•
Poll Interval - 00:00:00 to 99:59:59: Specifies how often you want the SC9000 to send out a poll message to check
the integrity of the RF link between the central station and this Radio Communicator account in the field. The format
