Installing and Removing HDX6801+ ModulesThe HDX6801+ modules have double-width back connectors. The modules cannot be installed in frames without fans, or in FR6802+DM and 6800/7000 series frames.These modules require no specialized installation or removal procedures. However, if you are installing both front and rear modules, ensure that the back module is installed first before plugging in the front module. Likewise, ensure that the front module is unplugged from the frame before removing the rear module. See the FR6802+ Frames Installation and Operation Manual for information about installing and operating an FR6802+ frame and its components.

CautionBefore installing your modules, see Table 2-1 "Maximum Power Settings for 6800+ Frames" on page 12.



Upgrading HDX6801+ FirmwareFirmware upgrading is a routine procedure that you must perform to install newer versions of software on a HDX6801+ module. The HDX6801+ module can be upgraded in Boot Loader mode only. CCS Pilot, Co-Pilot, or Navigator software version 3.1.1 or later is required for this procedure. The HDX6801+ must be installed in a frame that contains or is connected to another frame that contains an ICE6800+ module. When performing the upgrading procedure, check the appropriate readme file to confirm which files are needed. Use care to ensure that you upload the correct files to the HDX6801+ module. If for some reason the upgrade fails, the module may not respond to controls and will appear to be non-functional. In that event, follow the procedures described in “Correcting a Failed Upgrade Procedure” on page 20. Follow these steps to upgrade a HDX6801+ module’s firmware:1. Download the most recent appropriate upgrade package from the

our Web site or from your CD-ROM.2. Remove the HDX6801+ module from the 6800+ frame.3. Set the hex switch to F.

Chapter 3: Operation

Operating NotesWhen setting the control parameters on the HDX6801+B2/C2 and HDX6801+B4/C4, observe the following:• If you make changes to certain parameters, other related parameters

may also be affected. See the section “Setting HDX6801+B2/C2 and HDX6801+B4/C4 Control Parameters” on page 30 for more information.

• When you change a parameter, the effect is immediate. However, the module requires up to 20 seconds to save the latest change. After 20 seconds, the new settings are saved and will be restored if the module loses power and must be restarted.

• When you set the Factory Recall parameter to Yes, the module takes several seconds to reset all of the parameters to their default settings.

• Terminate any unused coaxial output connectors with a 75Ω terminator.

Software Communication and Control Issues• “+ Pilot Lite Fails to Communicate with Installed Modules” on

page 63• “+ Pilot Lite Does Not Find All Modules in Frame” on page 65• “+ Pilot Lite or CCS Software Application Not Responding” on

page 65• “+ Pilot Lite Cannot Control a Module Showing

in the Control Window” on page 65• “+ Pilot Lite Status Bar Reports “Not Ready”” on page 66• “CCS Software Application or Remote Control Panel Does Not

Communicate with Module” on page 66• “Alarm Query Fails When a Device Reboots” on page 66

+ Pilot Lite Fails to Communicate with Installed ModulesConfirm that the following items are not the reason for the communication failure:• The proper module slot has not been specified (+ Pilot Lite is not

communicating with the appropriate slot). See your FR6802+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information on slot identification.

• The COM port is used elsewhere (Check that the correct COM port is configured in + Pilot Lite and that another application is not using that COM port).

• The actual frame ID does not match the two DIP switch settings in the back of the frame (+ Pilot Lite is not communicating with the proper frame). See your FR6802+ Frame Installation and Operation Manual for more information on frame ID switch settings.

• A null modem cable is not being used. Between the PC running + Pilot Lite and the FR6802+ frame, there should be a null RS-232 modem cable. At minimum, this requires that pins 2 and 3 are crossed and 5 to 5 for ground.

• An ICE6800+ module is installed in the frame (+ Pilot Lite control is disabled if an ICE6800+ module is installed in the frame; ICE6800+ modules are used for CCS control).



• A legacy 6800 series product is in the frame. To communicate with + Pilot Lite, modules must be from the 6800+ product family.+ Pilot Lite cannot communicate with legacy 6800 series products. Although they can be installed in a FR6802+XF frame and work using card edge controls, 6800 series cards cannot be discovered or controlled by + Pilot Lite.

• The back module has bent pins. To determine if the module has bent pins, follow this procedure:a. Unplug the front module. b. Unscrew and remove the back module.c. View the 20-pin spring connector at the bottom of the back

module. See Figure A-1.

Figure A-1. Connector on 6800+ Back Module

This connector should not have any bent or pressed pins. Even a slightly depressed or bent pin may cause genlock issues.

d. If there are bent pins, carefully re-position them to their correct positions. If this is not possible, then a back module can be exchanged from the manufacturer.

20-Pin Connector



+ Pilot Lite Does Not Find All Modules in FrameIf a discovery is started too soon after frame power-up, + Pilot Lite will not find all the installed modules. Refresh + Pilot Lite (File > Refresh), and ensure that installed modules are fully powered-up before discovery.If a module is plugged into the frame after a discovery, + Pilot Lite will not automatically detect the module. Refresh + Pilot Lite (File > Refresh) to discover the newly installed module.If a legacy 6800 series product is in the frame, + Pilot Lite will not detect it. + Pilot Lite cannot communicate with legacy 6800 series products. Although they can be installed in FR6802+QXF and FR6802+XF frames and work using card edge controls, they will not be discovered or controlled by + Pilot Lite. For + Pilot Lite to find a module, it must be from the 6800+ product family.

+ Pilot Lite or CCS Software Application Not Responding+ Pilot Lite and a CCS application such as Navigator or Pilot cannot run on the same PC at the same time. Both applications can be installed, but only one can be opened at a time.

+ Pilot Lite Cannot Control a Module Showing in the Control Window

There are three possible causes for this problem: • Did you physically set the jumper for local control? If so, set this

jumper to the REM position for remote control.• Does the card name in the control window physically match the

card type in the frame? • Is the module properly seated in the frame? Check the positioning

of the module in its slot in the frame.• Does the Control window indicate the device is “ready”? The

device may be powered off or disconnected from the network.



+ Pilot Lite Status Bar Reports “Not Ready”+ Pilot Lite reports each device’s connection status in the status bar. If the connection status message reads “Not Ready,” check the following:• The position of the module -- it may not be properly seated in the

frame.• The frame’s network connection.If the status bar still reports no status or “Not Ready” for the frame or device, try restarting + Pilot Lite.

CCS Software Application or Remote Control Panel Does Not Communicate with Module

CCS software applications (such as Pilot, CoPilot, and Navigator) and remote control panels require the purchase and installation of an ICE6800+ module in an FR6802+ frame in order to communicate remotely via Ethernet.

Alarm Query Fails When a Device RebootsWhen you reboot a device connected to your PC, the alarm traffic hitting the network may cause an alarm query request to time out and fail. While the query does not automatically retry, it will post an “Alarm query failed” message to the Diagnostics window.To clear an “Alarm query failed” message, right-click inside the Diagnostics window, and then select Refresh from the resulting context menu.



Hardware Communication and Control Issues

Frames Fail to Communicate with the PC after a Power Failure

You must exit the software and restart after the frame recovers from its power failure. To restore communications between the PC and the frames, ensure that the frames have three or more minutes to recover from the power failure before you exit the application and restart the PC.

Module Does Not Seem to WorkAlthough the following troubleshooting tips may seem obvious, please take the time to ensure the following:• All appropriate rear connections are securely made• The board is securely installed (with no bent pins)• The frame is turned on
