Adding the CobraNet CAB 4n

  1. In the device tree, expand the Hardware folder.
  2. Expand the CAB Audio I/O folder.
  3. Drag a CAB 4n object over to the design page.

    The CAB 4n Properties dialog box is displayed.

  5. In the Expansion Slot boxes, select the card types that are installed or will be installed in the CAB.

    The CAB cards are color-coded to help you identify them.

  6. If you want to use the GPIO connector on the rear of the CAB to communicate with external devices, select the function for each pin in the GPIO Pin lists.

    For more information on the GPIO connector, see GPIO pin assignment in the CAB 4n Hardware Manual.

  7. If you want to allow a raw, RS-485 MAC configuration to send and receive from non-CobraNet MACs, click Advanced, and then select the RS-485 Raw MAC Enable check box.
