3 System setup
This section describes how to connect the Power Focus and STB.
The STB tool is compatible with standard Power Focus 4000 and 3100 as well as the IRC
Focus for both Graph and Compact controllers and all available RBU-types (except for DS).
3.1 Hardware setup
Setup the Power Focus system according to the local network recommendation.
If using a Serial Port Adapter, the connection with ToolsTalk Power Focus must go through Ethernet as
the serial port 2 is required for the adapter. In case there is no network available, the connection between
Power Focus and the PC running ToolsTalk Power Focus is made with a cross-over Ethernet cable
according to the instructions in section 6.2 ToolsTalk Service with Serial port adapter.
In case an IRC Focus is used, it is possible to connect to the Power Focus with a serial connection.
In both cases, it is also possible to access the Power Focus 4000 with a USB connection.
3.2 IRC hardware setup
Tools using IRC-W infrastructure proceed to section 3.5.2 Getting started with IRC-W – Infrastructure.
Tools using IRC-B or IRC-W with an IRC Focus proceed directly to section 3.2.2 Antenna placement. For
tool running IRC-W ad-hoc or IRC-B using a Serial Port Adapter process as described below.
3.2.1 Serial Port Adapter
When using a Serial Port Adapter, connect it according to the following instructions.
1. Turn off the Power Focus.
2. Connect an Atlas Copco crossover cable between
the Serial Port Adapter and the Power Focus serial
port 2, called RS232 (2). Recommended maximum
cable length: 2 metres.
3. Connect the power cable between the Serial Port
Adapter and the mains circuit in the premises.
4. Turn on the Power Focus.
