6Ć1Configuring Racks

 

The Rack Configurator is used to configure racks. With the Rack

Configurator, you can create a graphical representation of your

hardware installation, both the local (master) rack, and the remote

(slave)

rack

or Remote I/O Head. The actual physical configuration of

all

modules in each rack and remote

I/O system will be shown on the

screen, with model numbers and actual names displayed where

possible.

You can add modules to a rack, display or modify information about

existing modules, move modules to other slots in a rack, remove

modules from a rack, and enter DPS drive parameters in the Rack

Configuration.

Always refer to the instruction manual for the hardware

you are configuring for specific configuration information. The Rack

Configurator will prompt for details about the module, e.g., drop

number and drop depth for Network modules, if applicable.

The information entered through the Rack Configurator is added to

the database only and does not affect either application tasks or the

modules themselves. For example, the switches on the faceplate of

Interface modules

must still be set physically on those modules even

though the Rack Configurator prompts for this information to be

added to the database and shows the switch setting on the screen

after it is added.

You can access the Rack Configurator by selecting Configure Rack

from the Rack menu in the System Configurator. An empty AutoMax

rack will be displayed on the initial screen when you first start.

The Variable Configurator, which is used to map common memory

and I/O to variable names, is accessible from the Rack Configurator

menu. Note that the Variable Configurator is described in section 7.

See figure 6.1 for the Rack Configurator menus.
