Cable
At the boom of the STE-6014/6017/6018 case is
an EIA-485 (formerly RS-485) computer port. This
port provides a temporary connection to the digital
network for network setup or troubleshooting.
To use the port to connect to a computer, a means of
converting the EIA-485 signal to a USB or EIA-232
(formerly RS-232) signal will be needed. The exact
connection depends on the computer and the operator workstation software. (See also the instructions
included with those devices and software.)
• For USB (to WinControl or BACstage), use a
KMD-5576 USB Communicator (see the illustration above).
• For EIA-232 to BACstage, use a third-party
interface.
• For EIA-232 to WinControl, use a KMD-5559
CommTalk and KMD-5624 cable (or equivalent
interface).

Port
To access the network through the STE’s sensor:
1. Connect the keyed, at end of the KMD-5624
interface cable (included with the KMD-5576 but
not the KMD-5559) to the port on the sensor.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the interface
device that converts the EIA-485 signal into an
EIA-232 or USB signal.
3. Connect the suitable cable from the interface
device to the computer’s serial or USB port. Install
any required software and congure the port as
necessary.
Controller Configuration
Overview
Ensure that the corresponding 10,000 ohm pull-up
resistors on the controller are selected (switched
On). Consult the controller’s setup instructions for
information on switching on the pull-up resistors.
Controller conguration instructions are given for
both WinControl and BACstage. See the relevant
software section.
BACstage Software
Thermistor Input
1. In the BACstage software main menu, select
Objects > Inputs.
2. Click Edit.
3. Type in a name in the appropriate Description
eld (up to 32 characters) and/or Name eld (up
to 16 characters).
NOTE: No two labels or descriptions in a controller
can be identical.
4. Select Object Type: Analog if it is not the default.
5. Select Device Type: KMC10K Type II.
6. Select Units: °F or °C.
7. Optionally, change the Filter Weight (under More)
to the desired number of thermistor readings
averaged before displaying the result. If the
(STE-6017/6018/6019/6020) override is being
used, Filter Weight may need to be reduced
down toward 1 to ensure reliable recognition of
the buon press, depending on the controller.
NOTE: The buon needs to be pressed and held
for at least a half a second to be reliably
recognized for override mode.
8. Click End Edit.
9. Click Yes for “Send Update Notication Now?”
10. In the BACstage software main menu, select
Device > Device Tables > KMC10K Type II Table.
11. Click Edit.
12. Click Defaults (values will ll in).
13. Click End Edit.
14. Click Yes for “Send Update Notication Now?”
15. Click OK.

NOTE: The Custom Input property or Control
Basic can be used as easier but less linear
(less accurate) alternatives to tables.
