Network (receiver) programming
The information being programmed here pertains to the central
monitoring station (CMS) network that the control panel uses to
communicate with the CMS. This is a TCP/IP Ethernet network. Event
information is sent to the central monitoring station just as it is
when using a dialer, but the transmission is over an Ethernet
network and not over the phone lines. For the control panel to
communicate with the CMS network, you need an IP address, port
number, receiver number, and line number, which you must obtain
from the central monitoring station's network administrator.
Note:
Only the CID format can be transmitted to the CMS over an
Ethernet network.
Network (receiver) programming options
Enabled
Yes: Enables the CMS network operation
No: Disables the CMS network operation
Account ID
Enter the CMS account's four-digit ID code (0000 to FFFF). FFFF is not valid and must be
changed.
IP
Enter the IP address for the CMS.
TCP/IP port
Enter the port address for the CMS (0 to 65535).
Send restorals
Set send restorals to:
Yes: Sends off-normal event restorals to the monitoring facility (DACR)
No: Does not send off-normal event restorals to the monitoring facility (DACR)
Event notification
Set event notification (event reporting) to:
Device: Only device information is reported/transmitted, no zone information. Note: This setting
uses device event notification settings for reporting events. Make sure your device event
notification settings are correct. Refer to "Device programming" for more information.
Zone: When a device is a member of a zone, only the zone information is reported/transmitted,
no device information. Note: This setting uses zone event notification settings for reporting
events. Make sure your zone event notification settings are correct. Refer to "Zone
programming" for more information.
Event: Only the event type (alarm, supervisory, trouble, etc.) is reported/transmitted, no device
or zone information. Note: This setting uses the CMS event notification settings for reporting
events. Make sure your event notification settings are correct. Refer to "CMS device
programming" for more information.
Hello time
Set hello time to 10 to 255 seconds. Specifies the amount of time in between "hello" messages
sent by the panel to the CMS to maintain communications. The time must be less than the hello
timeout set on the CMS, otherwise the CMS will lose communication with the panel.
Timeout seconds
Set timeout seconds to 31 to 255 seconds. Specifies the amount of time after a message is sent
that the system waits for an acknowledgement before declaring a communication trouble.
Receiver number
Enter the CMS receiver number (0 to 9999) assigned to this panel by the CMS administrator.
Specifies the CMS receiver number that receives system event messages. This number is part of
the receiver message.
Line number
Enter the CMS receiver line number (0 to 9999) assigned to this panel by the CMS administrator.
Specifies the receiver's line number where system event messages are sent.
