8.0 PERSONALITY PROGRAMMING
A personality is a computer file generated by the user. This file (or personality) is
downloaded into the SitePro Controller and contains data that directs operating
characteristics of the SitePro Controller unit. This allows each SitePro Controller to be
programmed as required by the application. The SitePro Controller personality includes
system configuration information such as channel frequencies, call parameters, operating
modes, and identification information.
The personality programming process stores data in non-volatile regions of memory. The
SitePro Controller shelf has its personality stored in two locations. The first location is
EEPROM U14 on Controller Board A2 and contains general site level information. The
other location is EEPROM U34 on Analog Board A4 and contains general channel level
information. Programming is performed through serial programming port J8 on the front
of the Controller Board (Figure 13 - Location of Serial Programming Port J8).
Programming can also be accomplished through an Ethernet connection.
The Personality Programming process involves using SitePro PC Programmer TQ3408
software, which creates the desired personality and transfers the Personality data to the
EEPROM's U14 on the Controller Board and U34 on the Analog Board.
