Setting Wizard

Wizard Presentation

A setting wizard is automatically launched at first power-on to help you set up the FDM128 display.

The setting wizard guides you through three main configuration parts:

1.FDM128 display general settings

2.Communication settings depending on the network architecture

3.Editing device function

Each configuration part is described further in this section.

It is recommended that you update the communication settings each time you modify the communication network.

4

Enter Modbus range between 1–247.

5

Press Start to launch the device discovery sequence .

Up to 16 devices are displayed.

6

Select up to eight devices among the devices displayed.

7

If you select less than eight devices among the devices displayed, you are prompted for an additional gateway. Press NO.

8

If needed, you can configure manually extra IFE, EIFE, Acti9 Smartlink SI B, or Acti9 Smartlink SI D devices.

9

Press Finish.

The FDM128 display can now monitor the list of selected devices.

The setting wizard displays the Editing devices screen to allow you to edit the label and name of the devices.

Communication Settings for Several Gateway-Based Architectures

This procedure is applicable when the FDM128 display is connected to several gateways.

The FDM128 setting wizard guides you through the following steps:

Step

Action

1

Configure the FDM128 display within the network.

Set the following parameters:

oThe FDM128 IP address

oThe subnet mask

oThe default gateway IP address

2

Press YES to indicate that the FDM128 display is connected to a gateway.

3

Set the IP address of the gateway.

4

Enter Modbus range between 1–247.

5

Press Start to launch the device discovery sequence .

Up to 16 devices are displayed.

6

Select up to eight devices among the devices displayed.

7

If you select less than eight devices among the devices displayed, you are prompted for an additional gateway.

If you have another gateway to configure, press YES and go back to step 3.

8

When you have configured all gateways, press NO. You can now manually configure extra IFE, EIFE, Acti9 Smartlink SI B, or Acti9 Smartlink SI D devices.
