SOFTWARE
4.1 Other methods of programming
You can program the system using the CS5500 keypad or the UDx75 software. This
software allows you to download the programming information on the control panel to the
computer running the UDx75 software, change it and upload the changes from the
computer to the panel. It also allows you to view the program log and event log. To
program the system using this software, you must connect the control panel to the
computer.
4.2 Connecting the panel to the computer
You can connect the control panel to the computer either directly via the RS232 serial
port or remotely via a modem.
4.2.1 Connecting using a serial port
Connecting via a serial port is useful if you are on site and want to connect directly to the
alarm system.
The connection to the CS275, CS575 or CS875 panel is made through the RS232 port
using CS590 cable.
The CS175 does not have an RS232 port. The connection to the CS175 is made through
the CS586 module, which provides a standard RS232 bi-directional DB-9 connector. The
CS586 can be used as a programming tool on any panel, as it is connected to the data
bus. It
stores control panel settings that can be up/downloaded using the keypad or a
computer. For more information on reading data from the CS586, see the
Installation
