Serial Port
This allows you to setup the serial port for Texecom Premier
Connections, Honeywell Galaxy RS485, or Normal modes. By default
this is setup for Texecom emulation. For more information on the
connection and setup please refer to the panel installation manual
available from
http://www.chironsc.com/downloads_security.html
Note: It is important to ensure that jumper link on the ‘Serial
selection header’ is on the same selection.
Alarm override
Override the alarm panel’s account number and dialled number with those set in the IRIS Connect dialler.
Galaxy bus emulation
This option allows the selection of the Honeywell Galaxy RS485 bus module that is emulated to the Galaxy control
panel. By default this is set to AUTO (Automatic assigned) which will try the external Ethernet module first and if this
is not seen then the external PSTN, and finally the external serial modules. This allows for backwards compatibility to
older Galaxy panel software versions that do not support the Honeywell Ethernet module (Galaxy Classic below
version 4.00).
Report poll fail
Set the IRIS dialler to stop responding to the serial commands if polling has failed. This will then indicate the failure
back to the alarm panel. This allows the site to have local indication of a communication failure (for EN standards).
Monitor Serial
Set the IRIS dialler to monitor the serial port for activity and report any status change back to the monitoring centre
(ARC).The monitoring centre will also need to enable the serial port monitoring from the IRIS Secure Apps software
to receive alarm notifications on this status.
Battery
If installing the IRIS Connect without batteries then this option should
be unticked.
