Pyramid DC Receiver Installation Manual

ADDRESSING A RECEIVER WITH THE PYRAMID 2 KEYBOARD

Each receiver that is connected to the Pyramid system must have a unique address called a network address, and an

operator with installer privileges can do this using the Pyramid 2 Keyboard.

Configuration of the receiver requires the service button to be pressed on the receiver PCB, and this may be a two man

operation if the receiver is located remotely from the keyboard. For this reason, it is easier to address a receiver before it

is added to the network, and this can be done using a special mode of the Pyramid keyboard called Self Bind (also known

as Fn 100). Self-binding mode is commonly used when configuring telemetry receivers, or when cameras need to be

controlled in a system without a CCTV matrix.

During the self-binding process, the installer can setup the network address, which includes the node IDthe number

that is entered to indicate which device is to be controlled (e.g., Camera receiver number 4). Once the network address

has been configured, the receiver can be attached to the network and controlled through the Pyramid matrix.

To address a receiver in self-binding mode, follow the steps below:

1. Connect up a Pyramid 2 Keyboard to the telemetry receiver. This can either be connected directly to the receive

communications card at the receiver site, or remotely through the Pyramid network in the normal way.

2. Log onto the Pyramid 2 Keyboard using the installer password. The Installer Logon screen is displayed.

3. Press the Function 100 soft-key. The Direct Access screen is displayed.

4. Press the Receiver soft-key.

5. Press the Rx Utilities screen key.

6. Press the Unit Address Type soft-key.

The Addressing screen is displayed.

7. Press the Receiver Address soft-key. The keyboard LCD displays a message asking the operator to press the

service pin.

8. So that the keyboard can identify the receiver, press its service pin. On the DC receiver, the service pin is located on

the PCB as two pins to be shorted (see Figure 2).

When the service pin is pressed, the receivers neuron ID is transmitted to all other devices on the Pyramid network.

The neuron ID is a unique identifier which is used to establish communication between the receiver and all other

devices. Once the receiver has been identified by the network, it can be assigned a node ID.

9. The keyboard LCD displays a message asking the operator to enter the new node ID. The node ID is the visible part

of a network address, as it is the number that an operator enters on a keyboard to indicate the device that is to be

controlled (e.g., Camera receiver number 3).

Use the number keys to enter the node ID.

10. Press the Receiver Address soft-key again to confirm the node ID.

The keyboard LCD displays a message confirming the address.
