Detector identification
Every detector connected to the control panel is identified by a code which allows its
configuration and contains all the principle data required to physically identify it.
For example:

Programming by PC
The Hydra
256
control panel is fully programmable by a personal computer with a
dedicated configuration software (to be ordered separately). The software has been
designed to make the control panel programming simpler and faster.
The control panel can be connected to a Personal Computer using the RS232C
serial port available on the back panel.
The correct serial connecting cable is necessary to connect the control panel to the
computer. (The connector pin layout is shown below)
