Mounting into the Rack
The CPU unit (WJ-MPU955) should be mounted into the
rack as shown in the following diagram. Here are the steps:
1. Remove the four rubber feet by removing four screws
from the bottom of the CPU unit
2. Install the CPU unit in the rack, securing it with the four
screws
3. Secure the rear of the appliance to the rack by using
the additional mounting brackets procured locally if the
rack is subject to vibration
The cooling fans inside the CPU unit keep the CPU unit
working properly. They are subject to wear and need to be
replaced periodically. Do not block the ventilation slots on
the cover to prevent the appliance from overheating.
Always keep the temperature in the rack below 45 °C
(113 °F).
Configuration File Modification
The system configuration file is referred to as the SYS.INI
file. It contains system-wide configuration information, and
can be modified by the operators through an administration
tool.  See reference [1].
The CPU unit contains default SYS.INI file. (Refer to p.19)
The CPU unit should work with the default system configu-
ration file set by the factory at the time of shipping. To mod-
ify the default configuration file, you can use the administra-
tion tool (Admin Console). From the Admin Console main
menu:
• Select CPU Units from the main bar’s Domain;
• Select Sys tab from the CPU System Configuration
screen;
• Upload the SYS.INI file from the CPU unit using the ‘Get
from CPU’ button in the SYS Transfer section;
• Modify the system configuration file that appears in the
document area of the window;
• Save the system configuration file using the ‘Save’ but-
ton in the SYS Archive section;
• Download the configuration file using the ‘Put to CPU’
button in the SYS Transfer section; 
• Reboot the CPU unit
System Database
The system database contains system devices, system
resources, and system programmable events and automa-
tion information. The system administrator can configure the
system database using the administration tool. The CPU
unit contains a default database when it arrives from the
factory.
A default database file is also provided on the CD-ROM.
The contents of the default database file – 01 = sample.adm
– appear in the Default Database Contents section. (Refer
to p.24)

Connect with System Devices
In addition to the WJ-MPU955, users require other system
devices in order to form the Network Security System.
System Controllers
A system controller is an operator console, and it provides
a user interface for operators to interact with the Network
Security System. The system can support up to 64 system
controllers.
Ethernet-Based Controllers
The Ethernet-based controller is called a CU850 controller
(WV-CU850). It connects to the CPU unit’s Ethernet port
(see Panel Details y) through an Ethernet hub in an IP-
based local area network. 
Ethernet-Based Controller Setup
To add CU850 controllers to the system, use the adminis-
tration tool (Admin Console) and add an entry to the system
controller database. You need to assign a controller ID for
each controller, and enter the Ethernet address from the
bottom of the each controller. See reference [1] for more
information.
RS485-Based Controllers
There is an RS485-based controller - the CU360C (WV-
CU360C). The controller connect to the CPU unit through its
RS485 controller port (see Panel Details u). The system
can support up to twelve RS485 based controllers. 
RS485-Based Controller Setup
To add a CU360C controller to the system, use the adminis-
tration tool (Admin Console) and add an entry to the system
controller database. You need to assign a controller ID for
each controller, and enter the RS485 port number where
the controller is going to connect to. See reference [1] for
more information.

CPU Switch Unit
The standard system consists of one CPU unit. In order to
create a redundant Network Security System, customers
would need to purchase two CPU units (or one additional
CPU unit if the system is already in place) plus a CPU
Switch Unit, WJ-MPS850. The CPU Switch Unit is a comput-
er that monitors and manages both CPU units.
Operation
At any given time that the system is running, one of the
CPU units is in an Active state and the other is in a Standby
state. If the Active CPU fails, the CPU Switch Unit will auto-
matically switch the Standby unit to an Active state. 
Connect with CPU Units
The CPU Switch Unit connects to the CPU units through its
parallel port (see section !1
).
•Connect the RS485 modular cables between the con-
troller ports (RS-485) of the CPU units and the con-
troller ports (RS-485) of the CPU Switch Unit.
•Connect the diagnostic cables between parallel ports
of the CPU units and the diagnostic input ports of CPU
Switch Unit.
•Set the redundant CPU selector to YES on the rear of
the A and B CPU units.
