Connecting a Programming Hot Spot

This section describes how to connect a Programming Hot Spot.

Proceed as follows.

  1. Ensure that the Net Bridge switch is on STANDBY.
  2. Connect a Hot Spot to a prepared Net Bridge, or continue the bus from the last connected bus device on the main bus, according to the connection diagram in iLOQ S10 Online System - Planning Guidelines.
    Note:

    If you continue the bus from another bus device, remember to disable the termination (TERMINATION = OFF) from the device from which you continue the bus.

  3. Set the TERMINATION (TERM) dip switch to the ON position, if this bus device will be the last device on this bus branch. Otherwise, set it OFF.
  4. Write down the serial number of the Hot Spot.
  5. When you have also connected the other bus devices, finalize the Net Bridge configuration once (see Finalizing the Bus Device Configuration on Net Bridge) and continue this procedure.
  6. On iLOQ Manager software, check that the connected Hot Spot has been reported to the Net Bridge device list. You can recognize the Hot Spot by its serial number.
