2.2 RCI Setup for Initial Installation
2.2.3 Connecting RCI cables
Connect RCI cables.
Connect RCI units in sequence with RCI cables and their T-branch connectors.
Connect RCI terminating resistors to the T-branch connectors at both ends of a set of
RCI connections.
2.2.4 Making an RCI address setting
Specify "000101ff" as the RCI address for the first RCI host.
The RCI address must be unique in duplicate RCI networks.
• To specify an RCI address:
1 Execute the setrci (8) command, and specify an RCI address.
• To confirm an RCI address:
1 Execute the setrci (8) command to display the RCI status.
Confirm that the "address" value is correct.
To correct the RCI address, start again from RCI initialization.
2.2.5 Making an RCI construction setting
Make an RCI network setting.
RCI addresses are automatically set for RCI I/O units connected through the RCI so
that the units can use RCI functions.
Note: Before beginning this RCI setup work, confirm that AC cables are connected
to all RCI units.
<Example> Specifying the RCI address 000101ff for the XSCF
XSCF> setrci -c set <1>
The command completed successfully.
XSCF> setrci -c stat
HOST
address 000101ff
Inactive
The command completed successfully.
