TMS6 – LINE COMMUNICATION “LC” CONFIGURATION AND PROTOCALS


The Line Controller “LC” is the standard way that Toptech handles communications with other compatible devices “Multiload, Accuload, etc”.

A standard Line Controller “LC” will have the following flags.

n=server name     -- the name to attach to this lc

m=serial_port     -- the serial port used for the lc - If tcpip, this is the port number

[tcpaddr=] --address of device that we will connect through ip

[t=*]   -- timeout value in msec defaut (500)

eg.

/tms6/bin/lc n=RACK1 m=7734 tcpaddr=10.10.10.10 t=3000


Below is where you configuring the Bay Profile with a Line Controller name. For the purpose of this example the LC name is RACK1:

Under the Facility Configuration menu choose Bay Profile. Then go to the RCU Controller tab and navigate to the Line Control Name. This is where you will identify the n= parameter that was used on the LC “RACK1”.
