Controller configuration and monitoring
IGS-NT istallation pack contains separate PC software tools: GenConfig (GC) and InteliMonitor (IM).
GC and IM are based on Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP or higher platform and require approximately 30
Mbyte of hard disc free space.
Direct connection to the PC
IGS-NT controller can be connected directly with PC via RS232 or USB interface. Use the crossed RS232 or
USB cable to connect PC with controller.

Make sure the grounding system on controller and PC
– COM port (negative of the PC DC supply) are
identical
– before the first direct connection. There must not be any voltage between these two points
otherwise the internal PTC protection activates and interrupts RS232 communication. In such case
disconnect RS232 line wait a minute for PTC recovery and try again. The simple solution is to assure, that
the PC supply 240/20V is ground free (GND terminal is not connected).
