The system software automatically creates these 3 fields to the right of
the
Find Transponder
’
s Database Record
dialog. They represent the
date the transponder was first entered into the
Transponder Database
,
the date of the last change of any entry for this transponder, and the
identity of the operator making the last change (determined from the
password entered to make the change).
ID
This is a number assigned to the transponder at system set-up. It is
used by the Central Console to identify the transponder during all
communications between the Central Console and the transponder.
The number must agree with the transponder address, which is set
during final installation using switches on the transponder circuit
board.
Note: The number 0 is not allowed as a transponder address.
Radio ID
This is the identification number for the radio interface unit, if the
transponder communicates to the Central Console by means of a radio
link. (This feature is currently not implemented)
Comm Mode
This indicates which communication mode that the Central Console is
using to communicate with the transponder.
IP Address
If the
Comm Mode
is “TCP IP”, this field will appear in the dialog
window. This field indicates the IP address assigned to the
transponder.
Port No.
If the
Comm Mode
is “TCP IP”, this field will appear in the dialog
window. This field indicates which Central Console communications
port will be used to communicate with this transponder.
Comm Port Index
If the
Comm Mode
is “RS232”, this field will appear in the dialog
window. This field indicates which Central Console communications
port will be used to communicate with this transponder. The
Transponder Comm Port Setup
dialog selects the specific physical
port that this index will refer to.
Isolate From All Other
Transponders For
Location
When checked, this transponder is isolated from all other transponders
for location considerations. This should be used when distant
transponders sometimes hear an alarm and throw off the alarm
location calculation. If this checkbox is checked, it indicates that this
transponder is protecting an area that is independent of all other
transponders in the system. When an alarm is reported, and receivers
on this transponder have the best reception, only the receivers on this
transponder will be considered for the location of this alarm. If another
transponder has the best reception, then the receivers on this
transponder will be ignored for the location of this alarm.
