2.1 Controller communicates with the PC
A series Controller can connect via cables to communicate with PC’s RS-232 port or USB port, or can via
Converter to communicate with a PC.
1. Prepare Controller and Converter or DSCAB connect cable.
2. Turn the Controller’s switch to ‘Init’ status.
3. Link Controller to Converter via twisted pair cable.
4. Or linked DSCAB connect cable.
5. Turn on the Controller’s power.
6. Open Utility and click Refresh COM ports to check PC’s com ports, then choose Controller’s COM port. And
click Search for modules to search Controller.

7. When correct to search Controller, Utility will show below figure. We can detect the Controller’s all com
ports’ parameters.
2.2 A1 series Remote IO module communicates with the PC
1. A1series Remote IO module build-in MODBUS RS-485 port, can via Converter to connect to PC. (Device
DATA+ connect to Converter DATA+, device DATA- connect to Converter DATA-)
2. Turn the Remote IO Module’s switch to ‘Init’ status.
3. Power on the Remote IO Module
4. Open Utility and click Refresh COM ports to refresh PC com port, and choose Remote IO Module’s
com port. Then click Search for modules to search device.
5. When correct to search Controller, Utility will show below figure. We can detect the Remote IO Module’s

parameters.
6. We can set the communication parameter as below figure. For example, DEC(ID Address)range is 1-255.
When finish the parameter setting, can press Update to save the setting.
7. Or can click Digital Output to test device hardware’s LED indicator.

7
8. Remote IO Module via MODBUS RS-485 to communicate to other devices (PLC, HMI, Data Logger, etc.). To
communicate fail warning, we can set related notify in Comm. Fail Safe. When finish it, press Update to save. Or
can click Restore to restore device’s current data.
9. When turn on the Remote IO Module’s power, can set the power on output indicator via Power On Digital
Output. When finish it, press Update to save. Or can click Restore to restore device’s current data.
10. When complete above setting steps, turn the Remote IO Module’s switch to ‘Normal’ status and re-turn
on the power can finish the setting.

3.3 Properties-Parameter
Program Name
A program name with up to 16 characters can be entered in the circuit program.
Program Password
A program password with up to 8 alphabetical characters can be assigned to protect the circuit program on
the controller. Enter 2 identical passwords in the New Password and Repeat New Password text boxes
separately to assign a new password for your circuit program. You can delete the assigned password by
leaving New Password and Repeat New Password text boxes empty.
You can open or edit the circuit program from Editor at any time no matter if the program is
password-protected or not. For password-protected circuit programs, you have to enter the password to
view or modify the program on the controller, or to load the circuit program from controller to Editor.
Redundancy
The controller provides redundancy to help you build a robust system. In case the server is going down
there is a backup server that can take over the job.
There are 3 types for you to choose.
