MOUNTING
Install the System 9770 in EIA-standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) racks.
CM9770-MXB
1. Install the CM9770-MXB mounting baffle first (refer to Figure1).
The mounting baffle uses 1 rack unit (RU), and it has front and rear mounting ears, which are attached to the front and rear mounting racks.
The rear mounting brackets are adjustable to allow for different depths of cabinets.
NOTE: Be sure to use all eight screws provided with the mounting baffle. The mounting baffle must be installed securely to support the
weight of the matrix bay.
The mounting baffle provides the following functions:
•The mounting baffle helps to direct the heat from a lower matrix bay (or other equipment) toward the rear of the mounting baffle,
•The mounting baffle supports the weight of the matrix bay.
•The matrix bay is easier to install when it is sitting on top of the mounting baffle.
instead of allowing the heat to flow up into the matrix bay.

10C1555M-G (12/07)
2. Install the CM9770-MXB matrix bay on top of the mounting baffle. Refer to Figure 2.
In a single-bay installation, always leave 1 RU of space above the matrix bay for airflow.
In a multiple-bay installation you do not need to leave additional RUs open between units. However, you must always leave 1 RU of space
above the upper bay.
NOTE: Figure 2 illustrates the recommended mounting method. For an alternate, open-rack mounting method, refer to the Mounting the
CM9770-MXB in an Open Rack section in the Appendix.
Figure 2. Mounting the CM9770-MXB on Top of the Mounting Baffle
(Optional) Install additional CM9770-MXB mounting trays and matrix bays to the side of and below the first unit, as necessary.
WARNING: Always install equipment starting from the bottom of the rack frame or cabinet. Installing equipment from the top down will
make a rack or cabinet top heavy and could cause the eq uipment to tip over.
NOTE: Each CM9770-MXB has a unique label for identifying the ba y location in the installation. This ID information is important in
ensuring correct video and data connections.
3. Use the RJ-45 data cables supplied with each CM9770-MXB to connect the MXBs to the CC1. Refer to the Data Connections section and
the Port Assignments insert (supplied with the System 9770 documentation) for directions on which port to use for each MXB connection.
C1555M-G (12/07)11

VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
The following steps provide an overview of how to connect video input and output sources. More complete procedures are provided in the
subsequent sections.
NOTE: If your System 9770 is configured by Pelco, the appropriate number of video input cards and monitor output cards and BNC rear
panels are installed at the factory, and steps 1 and 2 are not necessary. If this is the case, skip to Step 3.
1. Install the CM9770-VCC and CM9770-VMC cards in the matrix bay. Refer to the Installing Video Input Cards (CM9770-VCC) section and the
Installing Monitor Output Cards (CM9770-VMC) section in the following pages.
2. Slide the CM9770-RPC and CM9770-RPM BNC rear panels into the appropriate slots from the back of the matrix bay. Refer to the Insert or Replace a Rear Panel Video BNC Card (CM9770-RPC) section and the Insert or Replace a Rear Panel Monitor BNC Card (CM9770-RPM)
section in the following pages.
3. Before you connect any video input or output to the matrix bay, you may want to power up the unit to ensure that the system is operating
properly. Refer to the Performing a Basic LED Check section.
4. Connect video inputs and monitor outputs to the rear panel BNC connectors on the CM9770-MXB matrix bay unit(s).
Installation Tips
•Be sure each connection is secure. For best results, use crimp-on BNCs only. Do not use screw-on BNCs; these typically do not provide
adequate ground and signal connecti on s.
•Label each video input; this can save a considerable amount of troubleshooting time in the future.
•Video output from the CM9770-VMC cards is not terminated. Terminate the video signal at the output device (monitor or VCR). If you are
looping to other devices, unterminate all but the last device.
NOTE: The end point of any video cable run must be terminated in 75 ohms.
Opening the CM9770-MXB Front Cover
T o install or remove a video input card, monitor output card, or power supply , you must first open the CM9770-MXB front cover.
1. Loosen the two screws at the top of the CM9770-MXB frame.
2. Pull the front cover towards you. The hinges at the bottom keep the cover attached to the frame.
3. When you are finished working with the interior components, close the cove r and tighten the screws at the top of the frame.
NOTE: Although the CM9770-MXB will function properly with the front cover open, the front cover must remain closed during system
operation to meet safety standards.
C1555M-G (12/07)13
INSTALLING VIDEO INPUT CARDS (CM9770-VCC)
The first video input card is inserted into slot 1; the next card is inserted into slot 2 (refer to Figure4). To add a video card, slide the card into the
first available slot. The CM9770-MXB can contain a maximum of eight viideo input cards.
HOT SWAPPING: You can “hot swap” a video input card—remov e a card and/or insert a new card—while the system is powered and
running. When you hot swap a card, the CM9770-MXB automatically verifies system software levels on all cards and then updates
software on the new cards if necessary. This process can be as fast as 30 seconds, or can take up to 5 minutes, depending on the number
of differing software files; however, the matrix bay continues to function throughout this process. The process is complete when the LEDs
marked “HB” on the front panel blink at a one-second rate.
How to Turn On the Pelco V-Sync Signal
The Pelco V-Sync signal, which is sent up the coax cable, provides a synchronization pulse for cameras that can use the Pelco V-Sync signal. This
signal eliminates the vertical roll that occurs when multiple cameras are connected to the same switching device. To turn on the Pelco V-Sync
signal, move the jumper labeled “VSYNCH” on the CM9770-VCC video input card to the ON position. Refer to the CM9770-VCC Card illustration
in the Appendix to see where this jumper is located.
The Pelco V-Sync feature is either “all on” or “all off” (default) for every camera connected to the specific CM9770-VCC card. You cann ot turn th e
feature on or off for individual cameras.
For the Pelco V-Sync feature to work properly, all matrix bays in the system must be connected to the same power circuit (because they must be
in the same phase).
DOWNFRAMING NOTE: If you are downframing the video signal to additional bays, you need to turn on the Pelco V-Sync on the final
matrix bay only.
Insert or Replace a Video Card
1. Open the front of the matrix bay, insert the video card into the card guides, and slide the card partially into the bay.
2. Hold the latches parallel to the floor until you reach the edge of the bay’s frame.
3. Adjust the latches to fit them properly onto the top and bottom edges of t he bay’s frame.
4. Push the latching levers into the closed position; this seats the video card firmly into place.
Remove a Video Card
1. Unlatch (pull) the levers at the top and bottom portion of the vid eo card.
2. Pull the video card towards you (towards the front of the matrix bay) until it is out of the frame.
NOTE: Do not insert a video input card into slots 9 or 10 ; these slot s are reser ved fo r monitor o utput cards a s shown in the Monitor Output
Cards (CM9770-VMC) section.

INSTALLING MONITOR OUTPUT CARDS (CM9770-VMC)
The monitor output card located in slot 10 is the primar y card, and it handles video for monitors 1-16. Refer to Figure5. Note that the
CM9770-MXB will not function without a CM9770-VMC card inserted into slot 10.
An optional secondary VMC card can be installed in slot 9. This card routes video for monitors 17-32.
HOT SWAPPING: You can “hot swap” a monitor output card—remove a card and/or insert a new card— while the system is powered
and running. When you hot swap a card, the CM9770-MXB automatically verifies system software levels on all video input cards and
monitor output cards in the matrix bay and then updates the software on any cards that do not match the VMC card in the primary VMC slot
(slot 10). This process can be as fast as 30 seconds, or can take up to 5 minutes, depending on the number of differing software files;
however, the matrix bay continues to function throughout this process. The process is complete when the LEDs marked “HB” on the front
panel blink at a one-second rate.
Insert or Replace a Monitor Card
CAUTION: When you insert a VMC card into the primary VMC slot—slot 10—the CM9770-MXB synchronizes software levels on all cards
in the matrix bay, base d on the software contained on this card. If the new card inserted into the primar y VMC slot contains software at a
lower level than the other cards in the matrix bay, you could lose some system settings and functionality.
1. Open the front of the matrix bay, insert the monitor card into the card guides, and slide the card partially into the bay.
2. Hold the latches parallel to the floor until you reach the edge of the bay’s frame.
3. Adjust the latches to fit them properly onto the top and bottom edges of t he bay’s frame.
4. Push the latching levers into the closed position; this seats the monitor card firmly into place.
Remove a Monitor Card
1. Unlatch (pull) the levers at the top and bottom portion of the monitor card.
2. Pull the monitor card towards you (towards the front of the matrix bay) until it is out of the frame.
You should perform a basic LED check before you connect any video input or output to the matrix bay. The LED check allows you to ensure that
the system is operating properly.
1. Turn on the power switch on the rear of the matrix bay. The front cover can either be open or closed during the LED check.
2. Various LEDs will blink during the initialization process as the software verifies communication and version level information. Once the
initialization process is complete, continue to step 3.
NOTE: The initialization process should take approximately 30 seconds, unless the primary CM9770-VMC monitor card is updating
software on the other monitor card or on the CM9770-VCC video cards. The software update process takes several minutes.
3. Ensure that the appropriate LEDs are illuminated, as described in TableA.
4. Ensure that the red CF LED on each video input card is off. If this LED is illuminated on any input card, reseat the card. If the problem
continues, replace with a known good video input card. If this LED is illuminated on all of the video input cards, there may be a problem
with the primary monitor output card (in slot 10). Reseat the primary monitor card. If the problem continues, replace with a known good
monitor card.
5. Ensure that the red VF and PF LEDs on the power supply are off.
6. If the LEDs are properly illuminated, turn off the power switch on the rear of the matrix bay, and then install all video inputs and outputs.

Change the Termination Jumpers on a Rear Panel Video BNC Card
In a single-bay, non-looping configuration (up to 256 cameras and 32 monitors), the jumpers must be set in the terminated position. Refer to the
Installing Additional Matrix Bays—Sideframing and Downframing section in the Appendix for details on termination jumper settings in multiplebay configurations.
When looping video out to another device (such as a DVR, VCR, or switcher), set the termination jumpers on the CM9770-RPC cards to the
unterminated position.
The termination jumpers are set in the appropriate position when your system is configured at the factory by Pelco. However, if you expand or
change your system, or purchase a replacement CM9770-RPC card, you may need to change the termination yourself.
Since the CM9770-RPC consists of two cards assembled together, you must access the termination jumpers on each card in a different way.
Access the termination jumpers on the right-side card as shown in Figure 8. Access the termination jumpers on the left-side card as shown in
Figure 9.
Figure 13 and Figure 14 illustrate sample sideframing configurations. Figure 15 illustrates a sample downframing configuration.
Refer to the Installing Additional Matrix Bays—Sideframing and Downframing section in the Appendix for detailed instructions on sideframing
When looping video out to another device (such as a DVR, VCR, or switcher), the connection instructions depend on the size of your system, as
follows:
•In a system containing 32 monitors or fewer (the video is not downframed), use the CM9700-VPP panels to loop the video out. Connect the
DFC cables that are provided with the VPP panel to the connect ors on the bottom of the matrix bay RPC cards, as shown in Figure10.
When looping video, set the termination jumpers on the CM9770-RPC cards to the unterminated position. Refer to the Change the T ermination Jumpers on a Rear Panel Video BNC Card section. Terminate the video signal at the final device .
Instructions on installing the CM9700-VPP panels into an EIA-standard rack are provided in the Appendix.
•If your system contains more than 32 monitors (in a downframed configuration), you must use the CM9770-DFL card in the final bay. Use the
DFC cable that is provided with the DFC card to connect the downframe connector on the bottom of the DFL card with the DFC card in the
previous bay. This configuration is illustrated in Figure 31, in the Installing Additional Matrix Bays—Sideframing and Downframing section
of the Appendix.

The System 9770 provides the following sideframing options:
•Sideframe Option A (refer to Figure 13):
Sideframe from each bay to the bay to which the monitors are connected—the sideframe cables ar e connecte d to t he vide o inpu ts o n
the bay with the monitors, starting with slot one, and continuing to the higher slots as necessary. Any camera input slots not used to
receive output from sideframed bays can be used for additional camera inputs.

•Downframing—To expand the matrix video outputs beyond 32, you can loop the video from the first CM9770-MXB to subsequent
CM9770-MXB units for an additional 32 monitor outputs on each matrix bay. Refer to FigureFigure 15..
You can connect a maximum of eight bays in a downframing configuration for a total MXB capacity of 256 monitors; in addition, you can
increase monitor capacity further by using MDA units, for a total single-node system capacity of 512 monitors.

Networked System
A networked system with multiple nodes uses an NIU (network interface unit) to combine up to 24 CM9700-CC1 systems into a network—each
CC1 system is called a “node.” Multiple CM9770-MXB units can be connected to each CC1 through sideframing and downframing. An NIU is a
CM9700-CC1 loaded with networking software, sold as a CM9700-NW1. Refer to Figure16.

THE POWER SUPPLY MODULE (CM9700-MPS)
You can add a b ackup power supply module (CM9700-MPS) to a System 9770 matrix bay to provide redundancy to the bay’s power supply.
NOTE: You can “hot swap” a backup power supply module—remove and/or insert a backup power supply—while the system is powered
and running.
INSTALL A BACKUP POWER SUPPLY
1. Open the matrix bay front cover.
2. Remove the blank-off plate from the empty power input slot.
3. Slide the power input module partially into the bay, on the guide rail.
4. Hold the latches parallel to the floor until you reach the edge of the bay’s frame.
5. Adjust the latches to fit them properly onto the top and bottom edges of the bay’s frame.
6. Push the latching levers into the closed position; this seats the power input module firmly into place.
7. Replace the matrix bay front cover.
REMOVE A BACKUP POWER SUPPLY
1. Open the matrix bay front cover.
2. Loosen the screw at the top of the power supply module.
3. Unlatch (pull) the levers at the top and bottom portion of the power supply module.
4. Pull the power supply module towards you (towards the front of the matrix bay) until it is out of the frame.

26C1555M-G (12/07)
HOW TO REPLACE THE FUSE IN A POWER SUPPLY MODULE
The matrix bay is shipped from the factory configured for the correct input power. The power input panel, on the rear panel of the matrix bay,
provides two separate power input receptacles, one for each power supply.
NOTE: The power input panel is not serviceable and should be removed or installed only by Pelco.
Each power input receptacle is equipped with a fuse assembly. In addition, each fuse assembly also provides a spare fuse. Refer to Figure 18.
WARNING: Always replace blown fuses with fuses of the same rating. Failure to do so could result in serious damage to the unit.
1. Remove the power cord from the power input receptacle.
2. Using a small screwdriver, pry the fuse holder out of the socket. The complete fuse assembly comes out of the unit.
3. Replace the fuse using a 1.6 ASB fuse. If using the spare, be sure to replace the spare with one of the same rating.

section.
30C1555M-G (12/07)
RS-422 COM PORT (“SERCOM”) CONNECTIONS
All peripheral equipment in a System 9770 connect through the RS-422 COM ports on the CM9700-CC1 rear panel. (These ports are also known
as “sercom” ports, short for “serial communication” ports.) If you exceed the number of CM9700-CC1 rear panel ports available, you can add
ports with the CM9700/9760-SER port expander unit.
NOTES:
•When connecting peripheral equipment to the serial communication ports, shielded cabling is required to comply with CE
emissions guidelines.
•Generally, Pelco will preconfigure your 9770 system, and then provide you with a Port Assignment Table. This document identifies
which port should be used for each device. Set up your system with the port assignments specified in your Port Assignment Table.
The information provided in this section should be used when expanding or servicing your system.
The 9700 System Manager software configures your system with the appropriate hierarchy of connections, so the easiest way to determine
where to connect each device is to use the 9700 System Manager to set up your system. The resulting list of devices in the tree view portion of
the CM9700-MGR Main window identifies the appropriate port number for each device in your system. Sample device list views are provided in
the following tables, to illustrate sample connections for each type of configuration.
Note that a specific hierarchy of connections is required when connecting equipmen t to the RS-4 22 COM por ts. Conne ct MXB units int o the first
available sequential ports, starting with port 5. Do not skip a po rt number when making MXB connections. Note, however, that the hierarchy
varies, depending on whether your system is networked and whether you use the hot switch package to connect a backup CC1 unit. The hierarchy
rules are provided in Tables B-E.
Once your MXB units and any NIU (network interface unit) or hot switch devices are connected (refer to Figure23 and Figure24), you can then
connect peripheral devices (such as keyboards) into any remaining ports. Peripheral devices do not have to be connected in any sequential order,
and you can leave ports empty between peripheral devices.
NOTE: In the following tables, “hot switch” refers to using the CM9760-HS hot switch package to connect a backup CC1, which provides
operational redundancy in a system. If the controlling CC1 unit were to fail, control would be passed to the backup CC1, and a system error
would be generated (through an LED and an audible ton e). Refer to the System 9 760 CM9760-H S Hot Switch Installation /Operation manual
for information on using a hot switch package. Note that the procedure for using a hot switch with a CM9700-CC1 is the same as for a
CM9760-CC1, except that the programming within CM9700-MGR is much easier. You just need to add the CM9760-HS as a device.

Appendix
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
The System 9770 is similar to Pelco’s System 9760 but uses different matrix bay hardware and provides more features. Users familiar with the
System 9760 should note the following differences:
•Each System 9770 video input card (CM9770-VCC) receives input from 32 video connections (from the CM9770-RPC BNC input card, which
contains 32 BNC connectors). A fully loaded CM9770-MXB matrix bay supports 256 video inputs with just eight video input cards. Refer to
Figure 6 in the Installation section.
•The CM9770-MXB provides slots for two monitor output cards (CM9770-VMC), providing a capacity of 32 monitors in a single bay. Refer to
Figure 11 in the Installation section.
•When you “hot swap” video input cards (CM9770-VCC) or monitor output cards (CM9770-VMC), the CM9770-MXB automatically verifies
system software levels on all cards, and then updates software on the new cards if necessary.
•The CM9700-MGR software provides the easiest way to configure your system. As you add devices or components to your system, it is
recommended that you first add them into the CM9700-MGR software. Then the software will reassign ports according to the appropriate
system hierarchy, and will easily renumber/rename system devices. Refer to the CM9700-MGR Software Guide for information.
NOTE: Actual maximum capacity depends on usage of the RS-422 COM ports on the CM9700-CC1. With the addition of CM9700-SER
serial communication cards and CM9700-SER-32 port expansion units, the number of RS-422 COM ports could be expanded to a maximum
of 120 ports. In addition, you would need to use COM ports to connect keyboards (and any other optional peripheral devices). Therefore, the
actual maximum number of cameras and monitors is restricted by the number of COM ports remaining available for the matrix bays, after
the number of COM ports needed for keyboards an d other periph eral devices has be en determined. If you r system requiremen ts exceed 120
ports, multiple 9770 systems can be networked together to re ach your required capacity.
HOW TO EXPAND YOUR SYSTEM
The System 9770 provides a number of ways to expand your system to handle additional capacity. For example:
•If you have a matrix bay that is not fully loaded, you can install additional video input cards (CM9770-VCC), up to a total of eight cards.
Refer to Installing Video Input Cards (CM9770-VCC) in the Installation section.
•If you have a matrix bay with only one monitor output card (CM9770-VMC), you can install a secondary monitor output card in slot 9. Refer
to Installing Monitor Output Cards (CM9770-VMC) in the Installation section.
•You can install additional matrix bay units in a single-node system, using either a sideframe configuration or a downframe configuration.
•You can ad d a backup power supply module (CM9700-MPS) to a System 9770 matrix bay to provide redundancy to the bay’s power supply.
•You can use CM 9760-MDA unit(s) to increase monitor output capacity to a maximum of 512. Refer to the CM9760-MDA Installation/
Operation manual and note that the procedure for using an MDA unit with a CM9700-CC1 is the same as for a CM9760-CC1.
•You can expa nd the number of communication ports available on the CC1 in eithe r or both of the following ways:
–If your original CC1 configuration allows, you can install additional CM9700-SER serial communication cards (the CC1 can contain a
maximum of four cards).
–You can add additional, external communication ports with the CM9700-SER-32 Por t Expander. Refer to the CM9700-SER-32 Port
Expander Installation/Operation manual and note that the procedure for using a p ort ex pander with a CM9700 -CC1 is th e same as for
a CM9760-CC1.
Instructions for expanding your System 9770 are provided in the following pages.
NOTE: You can also expand a single-node system to a networked system by adding a CM9700-NW1 unit. Refer to the Networking section
in this Appendix for instructions.
40C1555M-G (12/07)
INSTALLING ADDITIONAL MATRIX BAYS—SIDEFRAMING AND DOWNFRAMING
When either more cameras and/or more monitors are need ed than ca n be acco mmodated by one matrix bay (256 x 32), you can insta ll additiona l
matrix bays in either of the following configurations:
•Sideframing—This option increases the number of available video inputs.
•Downframing—This option increases the number of monitors available for output.
Sideframing
T o expand the matrix video inputs beyond 256, you can use multiple bays, with video from the monitor outputs on each bay sideframed (with
cable connections) to the bay to which the monitors are connected.
NOTE: Sideframing requires that the matrix bays be located in nearby bays since the expansion occurs in a horizontal manner.
In a sideframe configuration, the termination jumpers on the RPC cards must be set as follows:
•The input bay(s) termination jumpers mu st be in t he untermina ted position; t hese are the bays to w hich the camer as (or othe r i nput devices)
are connected.
•The output bay termination jumpers must be in the terminated position; these are the bays to which th e monitors (or other output devices)
are connected.
Refer to Change the Termination Jumpers on a Rear Panel Video BNC Cardin the Installation section for instructions.
The System 9770 provides the following sideframing options:
•Sideframe Option A (refer to Figure 13 in the Installation section):
Sideframe from each bay to the bay to which the monitors are connected—the sideframe cables are connected to the video inputs on the
bay with the monitors, starting with slot one, and continuing to the higher slots as necessary. Any camera input slots not used to receive
output from sideframed bays can be used for additional camera inputs.
Note that the bay-to-bay input-to-output wiring must correspond to specific slot positions, as illustrated in Figure 13 and Figure 14 in the
Installation section.
•Sideframe Option B (refer to Figure 14 in the Installation section):
Sideframe from each bay directly to an output bay. This method requires an extra bay, but maintains the total capacity of camera inputs in
each of the other bays in the system.
C1555M-G (12/07)41
Downframing
T o expand the matrix video outputs beyond 32, you can downframe the video from the first CM9770-MXB to subsequent CM9770-MXB units for
an additional 32 monitor outputs on each matrix bay. Refer to Figure31.
You can connect a maximum of eight bays in a downframing configuration for a total MXB capacity of 256 monitors; in addition, you can increase
monitor capacity further by using MDA units, for a total single-node system capacity of 512 monitors.
When downframing video, the termination jumpers on the RPC cards in the first bay must be set in the unterminated position. Refer to Change the Termination Jumpers on a Rear Panel Video BNC Cardin the Installation section for instructions.
When looping video out to another device (such as a DVR, VCR, or switcher), use the CM9770-DFL card in the final bay. You must set the
termination jumpers on the CM9770-DFL card to the unterminated position. Refer to the Chan ge the Termination Jumpers on a Rear Panel Video BNC Card section. Terminate the video signal at the final device.
42C1555M-G (12/07)
Refer to the Downframing section on the following page for instructions on setting the termination jumpers in the downfr amed bays.

Downframe Cards
The following downframe cards are available for the System 9770:
•CM9770-DFC—This is the “no looping” downframe card.
•CM9770-DFL—This is the “looping” downframe card.
If you are downframing to only one bay, the downframed bay can be populated with either DFL or DFC cards.
If you are downframing to more than one bay, each bay between the first and the last must be populated with DFC cards, and the termination
jumpers must be set in the unterminated position. The last bay can be populated with either DFL or DFC cards. You must terminate the video
signal at the final point in the downframe configuration, which could be either of the following:
•If you are not looping video out from the final bay, terminate the video at the DFL or DFC cards in the final bay.
•If you are using the DFL card in the final bay, and are looping video to another device, terminate the video signal at the final device.

NETWORKING
Networking of systems is required when the following conditions apply:
•Two or more individual systems need to share video and control features. The CM9700-NW1 network interface unit (NIU) allows you to link
any combination of the following systems into a network:
–One or more System 9740 or 9760 systems (note that the CM9740-CC1/CM9760-CC1 must be upgraded to software version
level 9.01)
–One or more System 9770 or 9780 systems
•More than 2,048 cameras are required .
•More than 256 monitors are needed for the system (without full cross-point).
NOTE: When using CM9760-MDA units, you can increase the monitor output capacity of a non-networked system to a maximum of 512.
•Alarms and cameras connected to remotely-located systems need to be accessed.
The CM9700-NW1 network interface unit allows you to combine your systems into a network. Up to 24 nodes can be connected to a
CM9700-NW1.
The NIU offers the following features:
•Each system maintains local operations (local camera switching, control, etc.) if the NIU goes off-line.
•A system can be remotely located as far as the transmission type and path allows (typically hard-wired with 24 AWG twisted pair up to a
maximum of 4,000 feet/1,219 m).
•Information on each node connected to the ne twork (for exa mple, camera s and monitors at tached ) is automa tically down load ed to the N IU.
•Operators can be allocated/restricted access to most features/equipment throughout the network.
•Alarm signals can be transferred between nodes.
Refer to the System 9760/9770 Networking Guide for detailed instructions on networking your system. Note that the information in the
networking guide is applicable to both the System 9760 and the System 9770, except for the instructions in the Network Setup section, which
apply to the old CM9760-MGR software. For instructions on programming a system controlled by a CM9700-NW1, refer to the CM9700-MGR
Software Guide (provided in the System 9770 binder).

DOS ENVIRONMENT AND COMMAND REFERENCE
DOS stands for Disk Operating System. Every time you turn on the CM9700-CC1 or ever y time you reboot (Alt +Ctr l +Del), the comp uter loads DO S
from the CC1 disk into the memory (RAM). Once loaded DOS lets you run other programs, in particular, the CM9700.EXE program.
On factory-configured systems the autoexec.bat file is configured for one of the following scenarios:
•The boot process ends at the following system prompt (c:\9700>).
•The boot process loads and executes the CM9700.EXE program.
THE BOOT PROCESS
The following process occurs when the CC1 is turned on or is rebooted:
1. If turned OFF and then turned ON, the CC1 goes through a power- on self-te st (POST). Her e the compute r essentia lly examines its elect ronic
components.
2. The computer looks at drive A for a DOS system disk. If one is not there, the CC1 will load DOS from its hard drive.
3. This process looks for two “hidden” system files: IO.SYS and MSDOS.SYS. If these files are not present, DOS displays the “Non-System
disk or disk error” message. (The CC1 also displays this error during the boot process if there is a floppy disk in the A drive that has no
system files).
4. If the “hidden” files are present, IO.SYS loads first and executes. An initialization program called SYSINIT contained within IO.SYS reads in
the MSDOS.SYS file; SYSINIT next locates the CONFIG.SYS file and executes its files for it to configure itself in memory. Then, SYSINIT
locates and invokes COMMAND.COM. If SYSINIT cannot find COMMAND.COM, DOS displays the “Bad or missing Command Interp reter“
error message.
NOTE: Since COMMAND.COM is not a hidden file, it is possible that it could accidentally be moved, corrupted or erased. If this occurs, you
may need to start DOS from a floppy disk and COPY COMMAND.COM into the CC1s root directory.
5. If SYSINIT finds and loads COMMAND.COM, it, in turn, searches your root directory for the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. If it exits,
COMMAND.COM will cause the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to execute. If AUTOEXEC.BAT does not exist, the DATE and TIME commands are
invoked by COMMAND.COM. After entering date and time information, the basic system prompt (C:>) appears. This completes the startup
or boot process.
You cannot separate the boot process from CC1 initialization. The DOS boot process must succeed before the CM9700.EXE program can run. The
result of the DOS initialization process is that you either have a system p rompt o n a D OS screen or, as part of the boot process, the CM9700.EXE
program has been invoked. In the latter case, the Syste m window of the diagnostic screen displays “Setup Complete…” if everything initialized
OK; otherwise, an applicable error message appears.
AUTOEXEC.BAT AND THE BOOT PROCESS
The AUTOEXEC.BAT file is the last file called during the boot process. Fo r CC1 s conf igur ed as part of a system node at th e f actory, the end result
of this process is the appearance of the CM9700 diagnostic screen on the attached VGA monitor.
The factory-configured boot process occurs because of the instructions added to the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. The AUTOEXEC.BAT file is a batch file,
which contains a series of instructions that are executed serially when the file is called.
Invoking the CM9700 Executable
The following commands are the last two in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
CD9700This command directs DOS to the 9700 directory where the 9700 executable resides.
CM9700 Node1This command starts the executable (CM9700) and directs the program to load into memory all configuration files having the
collective prefix name of “Node1” (also located in the same directory).
The program continues to configure the system environment and goes on line. If everything is functioning properly, the “Setup Complete”
message appears on the CM9700 diagnostic System Window on the attached VGA monitor.
If you change the name (the prefix) of your curr ent flat files or copy a new set of configuration files (with a different name) to the 9700 directory,
then you must change the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to correspond.
C1555M-G (12/07)55
File Names and DOS
File names in DOS are limited to eight characters. If you issue a co mmand to change the name of the configuration files in the 9700 directory to
a name exceeding eight characters, the name is truncated to eight characters. The Windows-based CM9700-MGR program does not allow you to
use more than eight alphanumeric characters when creating a name for your set of configuration files.
DOS Commands
DOS commands are divided into two groups. Because of the lar ge number of DOS commands availab le, only the most commonly us ed commands
are loaded into memory (RAM). The remaining commands reside in the DOS directory. The commands loaded into memory are called internal
commands and the commands in the DOS directory are called external commands. When DOS reads a command, it looks first in RAM, then it
looks in the DOS directory, and then it looks in the directory from which the command was issued. If you invoke an executable type file that isn’t
in any one of those places, you must navigate to the directory in which the execut able file is located.
The Path Statement
As an alternative to navigating to the directory in which an executable file is located, you can put a PATH command statement into the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. The PATH statement directs DOS to look in each of the directory paths listed there for any executable [.EXE, .COM or .BAT
file] it is instructed to carry out. The syntax of the PATH statement is as follows:
(Note that spacing is included in the syntax statement to make it easier to see the elements that make up the path statement. In actual use,
no spaces exist, as demonstrated in the example.)
Semicolons (;) separate drive-path statements. There are no spaces. The complete drive path must be given for each directory you wish to include
in the search. The search is for files with .EXE and .COM extensions only. If the executable you call, in turn, issues a call for a non-executable file
(that is, one without an .exe or .com extensions), then the PATH statement does not apply. Instructions for using the executable must tell you
either where to place needed non-executable files or the executable itself must provide the means whereby the file can be found. DOS will not
look for these files.
Note that you cannot insert the directory path for the CM9700 executable file into the PATH statement. The CM9700 executable uses a n onexecutable file that always resides in the C:\9700 directory. If you invoked the CM9700 executable from any directory locatio n other than the
C:\9700 directory, the executable would not finish successfully because CM9700.EXE expects to find the file residing in the same directory that it
does. You can manually invoke the command (CM9700 test) while in the C:\9700 directory, but in most cases, you need to reboot the CPU, and as
a result, DOS boots to the root directory. That is why the CD command to switch to the 9700 directory is included in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. If
you used the PATH command statement alone, the CM9700.EXE would be found, but the other non-executable file needed would not be found
and system initialization would fail.
Navigating the DOS Directory Tree
When you exit to DOS on the CC1, you are normally at the C:\9700> screen prompt. While in the directory, you may manipulate any file there or
you may navigate to any subdirectory contained in that directory.
T o navigate to a subdirectory of the 9700 directory, use the following syntax:
C:\9700> CD [subdirectory name] [ENTER]
For example, if a 9700 subdirectory had the name BKUPTST, your entry would read as follows:
C:\9700> CD BKUPTST [ENTER]
This takes you to the C:\9700\BKUPTST> screen prompt in the BKUPTST directory:
Once in the C:\9700\BKUPTST> prompt, files within the directory can be manipulated. The key entries used to backtrack up the directory tree
depend on where you want to go. From the BKUPTST directory, you either can go back to the root directory with one single key entry or you can
go in steps, one directory at a time. To proceed directly to the root directory, enter the following:
C:\9700\BKUPTST> CD\ [ENTER]
The “ \ ” symbol, when used alone represents the root directory; otherwise, it indicates separation of various levels of the directory tree,
collectively known as the directory path. The result of the abov e entry takes you directly to the root directory and the “C:\>” screen prompt:
To backtrack up the directory tree one directory at a time, enter the following at the system prompt:
C:\9700\BKUPTST> CD.. [ENTER]
That entry takes you to the C:\9700> prompt.
56C1555M-G (12/07)
If you entered the same command again (CD..) at the c:\9700> prompt and pressed the ENTER key, you would finally end up ag ain at the root
directory as previously done. To proceed directly from the directory you are in to another directory, no matter where in the directory tree you are,
enter the total directory path of the location you wish to go to at the system p rompt.
For example, to get to the C:\9700\BKUPTST directory from t he root directory, type C:\> CD [directory path], an d then press the ENTER key. Y ou will
be at the C:\9700\BKUPTST> screen prompt.
Manipulating Files in the DOS Environment
The safest way to manipulate files is to do so from within the directory in whic h those files are located. This is beca use of the followin g reasons:
•If you enter a DIR command at the directory prompt, then the names of the file(s) you wish to manipulate are right there on the screen. This
reduces the risk of making simple mistakes, such as entering an incorrect file name as part of an erase command, for example.
•When using commands directed at file manipulation, the format of the command requires that the command name be listed first, followed
by the file name to be acted upon. If you issue a command fo r a file that is in an other dire ctor y, then you must enter the complete directory
path where that file is found in addition to the name of the file at which the command is directed.
The command formats (such as COPY, MOVE, RENAME, DELETE) for the most commonly used commands are provided with examples in the
Command Reference Table at the end of this section.
Using the Wild Card Character
The most commonly used wild card character recognized by DOS is the asterisk (*). The asterisk can be used as a placeholder to group files that
are going to be acted upon by the same DOS command. The asterisk helps you specify character positions that are of the “don’t care” type in file
names. When DOS encounters the asterisk, DOS ignores the characters in the position containing the wildcard as well as all the characters that
follow it.
The CM9700-CC1 configuration files pr ovide a good example of how the wildcard can be used.
Example 1
To copy configuration files from the A floppy drive to the 9700 directory on the CC1 disk complete the following steps:
1. Change to the A: directory
2. At the A prompt type your command using the following syntax:
A:> copy [configuration file name].* [destination].
For example, if the filename prefix for the configurat io n files was “Node1”, type copy Node1.* C:\9700
3. Press the Enter key.
Example 2
T o move configur ation files from the 970 0 directory to anot her directory [previously created] for archiving purposes, complete the following steps:
1. Change to the 9700 directory.
2. Type your command using the following syntax:
C:\9700>copy [source] [destination]
For example, if the destination directory was “archive,” type copy Node1.* C:\archive
Since you are already in the 9700 directory, the source portion of the command consists only of the file name(s) to be moved. The
destination contains the path to the directory where the files are to be moved to.)
3. Press the Enter key.

Troubleshooting
Problems with the CC1
Problems with the CC1 as part of a 9770 system may occur in the following areas:
•The CC1 itself
•Setup files (also known as configuration files)
•Peripheral devices connected to the CC1
•DOS operating system
A log is recommended for keeping track of changes made to the system. The log should document the change made, why it was made, the date
it was made, and the person responsible for the change. This log will help in troubleshooting any errors that may occur . It also makes it easier to
identify errors that might have been caused by the change from other types of errors.
