Handle the Card

ATTENTION: The NetLinx 1784-KTx card uses CMOS technology, which is highly sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD may be

present whenever you are handling the card. Handling the card without any ESD protection can cause internal circuit damage that may not be apparent during installation or initial use.

Take these precautions to guard against ESD damage:

• Before handling the card touch a grounded object to discharge any built-static

charge.

• Avoid touching the backplane connector or interface connector pins on the

1784-KTx card.

• If the card is not in use, store it in the anti-static plastic-molded clamshell in

which it was shipped.

Introduction to the 1784-KTx Communication Interface Cards

Your 1784-KTx communication interface card (cat. nos. 1784-KTX, 1784-KTXD, and 1784-KTS) is an ISA half-sized card that must be inserted into a 16-bit ISA or EISA expansion slot.

Important: You must not place this card in an 8-bit expansion slot. Improper

operation and damage to the card will result.

Table 1.A shows the 1784-KTx card features.

1-2 Introduction to the 1784-KTx Communication Interface Cards

How the 1784-KTx Card Operates

The 1784-KTX and -KTXD cards:

• communicate with nodes on Data Highway networks, including PLC-2

PLC-3 and SLC 5/04 processors, and SLC 5/01

, and on Data Highway Plus networks, including PLC-5®,

™

, SLC5/02, and SLC 5/03

processors (only via 1784KA5)

™

• communicate with SLC

processors on DH-485 networks

• act as a remote I/O scanner

The 1784-KTS card acts only as a remote I/O scanner.

The 1784-KTx performs data transmission, management, and local network diagnostics. The interface to the host processor is through a board-resident dual-port memory.

Allen-Bradley interface software (including RSLogix via RSLinx, AI, 6200, and INTERCHANGE) manages data transmission and reception through dual-port memory.

Remember to set the base memory address on the KTx card so that it does not interfere with selected addresses of other expansion cards in your computer. On dual-channel cards, set two addresses.

Important: Although the 1784-KTXD has two channels, you cannot use the

card to directly bridge between two networks.

What to Do Next

Chapter 2 tells you how to configure the card hardware.

1784-6.5.22 - November 1999

Chapter

Configure the Card Hardware

Before you install the KTx card inside your computer, you must set the:

• base memory address - the card’s physical addresses for the expansion

memory area of the host processsor’s system memory, that enables the KTx card and the host computer to exchange data through the dual-port interface

• card’s interrupt setting

Select the Base Memory Address Location

The host computer and the KTx card exchange data via a dual-port interface. The dual-port interface requires 4 Kbytes of memory (2 Kbytes for dual-port and 2 Kbytes for the rest of the interface). It begins at the specified base memory address location. You must select an area where there is at least a 4 Kbyte memory block available. If you have MS-DOS 6.0 or later, use the memory option in Microsoft Diagnostics (MSD) to identify available memory.

The 1784-KTx cards come set to memory address(es):

Catalog Number Channel Address

1784-KTS 1 D700:

2-2 Configure the Card Hardware

ATTENTION: If you have a two-channel card, you must set the base addresses to different values—each channel must have a unique address.

Important: When selecting configuration settings, check for conflicts with

Important: If you have a 386, 486, or Pentium host computer, you must find a

Setting the base addresses to the same address can damage the KTx card.

If another card or channel is already using a channel’s default memory address, you must pick a new address for the channel. Each channel on each card must have a separate and unique address.

other interface cards and system memory. If there is a conflict, the system will not operate properly. To avoid the conflict, you must change the base address of the channel via rotary switch settings to an open memory address.

way to disable caching and shadow memory for at least the 4K of memory space occupied by the KTx. This can usually be accomplished through your CMOS set-up program or memory manager, and must be done before running application with the KTx card.

To configure the base memory address, you turn rotary switches on the 1784-KTx card.

1. Determine addresses for the channel(s) on your KTx card.

A. Use Table 2.A on page 2-3 to determine the recommended memory

address settings for your Allen-Bradley products.

B. Use Table 2.B on page 2-4 to determine which addresses are available for

the KTx card channel(s).

ATTENTION: When you set the switches, be certain to avoid touching other components on the card.

To set the card’s switches, follow these steps:

1. Follow the card handling instructions on page P-2.

2. Remove the 1784-KTx card from the anti-static clamshell.

3. Use the decision table below.

Important: If you are using the “no interrupt” setting, you must place the

jumper vertically over two pins on the right-side row as shown. This way you can save the jumper for future use. Placing the jumper on the left-side row will cause interrupt problems on the motherboard.

1. Determine the interrupt(s) for the channel(s) on your KTx card. Use

Table 2.D to determine which interrupts are available for the KTx card channel(s).

Important: If you are using the KTx for remote I/O scanner emulation, you

must set an interrupt for the scanner channel.

New DH+ Specification - Link Baud Rate

Allen-Bradley has added 230k baud rate enhancements to the DH+ firmware of the KTx.

Note this update to the KTx dualport memory map for DH+, which is documented in publication 1784-6.5.21

Host writes a valid

:0007h Link Baud Rate INI FCh = 57.6 Kbaud

FEh = 230.4 Kbaud

value (KTx baud rate) to byte:00007h. KTx reads at start-up.

Important: Check the product documentation for your RSI communication

software to see if the product supports 230k baud rate.

Install the Card Inside the Computer

You’ve set the memory addresses and interrupts; you’re ready to place the KTx card inside your computer.

Before You Begin

Consider these points before you begin:

• Do I know everything I need to know to accomplish my task?

• Do I have the proper tools at hand?

• Do I understand where I can and can’t put this card?

On the Right Track?

Be certain that you know how to:

• configure the computer’s options before you install the 1784-KTx

• install hardware into your computer’s expansion slots

Consult your computer’s documentation for specific information.

Where’s Your Screwdriver?

You need one of these tools to remove the cover from your central processing unit (CPU):

• Phillips-head screwdriver

• flat-head screwdriver
