Local connection
5.3.1.5.1.
Local connection means that configuration wizard (or, in fact, a computer, on which it is
installed) is directly connected to a relevant connector of the alarm control panel via
dedicated programming cable using RS-232 serial port (GD-PROG) or USB port or
Bluetooth (MINI-PROG-BT, SP-PROG-BT). All channel connection (also USB and
Bluetooth) "open" virtual COM serial ports used in communication control panel-
Configurator.
To program the equipment or perform other activities (i.e. read the settings from the
equipment, change the firmware, etc.) you have to define the connection parameters.
For the above purpose you shall use the following window, available after activating File
option from the Main Menu and selecting Connection function or after clicking
icon on
a taskbar and opening RS232 tab.
Define:
Connection name, e.g. Local
Select serial port, e.g. COM1
Click [Add] button to confirm the setting. The connection is saved (and moved to the
table). From that moment the program will enable a wire connection with the equipment
and allows reading and recording the parameters in the equipment’s memory.
