For example, someone at the installation site can change the panel programming via "Direct Address Program
Mode", resulting in a mismatch.
Direct Address Program Mode is an extension of the Dealer Program Mode wherein programming data is directly en-
tered at the keypad by address location. To enter the Direct Address Program Mode, first unlock the GEMC-FK1 Fire
keypad using a Dealer Keypad Program Code or Master Security Code, then press
MENU
, then scroll through the
Function menu with the
NEXT
button; when "
ENABLE PROGRAMMING
" appears in the keypad display, press
ENTER
.
Once "
ENABLE PROGRAMMING
" is selected and enabled, you may enter the Direct Address Program Mode. See the
section
EASY MENU-DRIVEN PROGRAM MODE-- FIRE KEYPAD
further in this manual for complete infor-
mation.
A mismatch may also occur if one intentionally bypasses the system by uploading the panel program to a
temporary Quickloader account, then downloads changes back to the panel. The result is a panel mismatch
with the original associated Quickloader account.
To avoid mismatches, Quickloader will always attempt to verify the equivalence of the account and panel program-
ming for all
remote
download-related operations. For
local
download operations, Quickloader does not verify the
equivalence of the account and panel programming because the dealer is, by definition, physically located on site,
and therefore restrictions to all
local
download-related operations are both unnecessary and undesired.
Mismatch while Establishing a Telco Connection
Using a Telco connection, if one tries to remotely download to the panel from a Locked account, (assuming no one is
on site) upon establishing a Telco connection, Quickloader will immediately attempt to check if the account and panel
program are identical, even before a download operation is requested. If they are found NOT to be identical, the fol-
lowing
Account and Panel Mismatch
dialog will appear:
The
Account and Panel Mismatch
dialog allows three options:
Upload and Overwrite
: Perform a full upload to overwrite the existing Quickloader account. All program-
ming in the existing Quickloader account will be lost; the panel program and the Quickloader account will match,
resulting in a Locked account.
Upload and Save to File
: Perform a full upload to a newly created Quickloader account. All programming
in the existing Quickloader account will be left un-modified; the panel program will be uploaded to a new Quick-
loader account (the system will prompt for a new account name). Quickloader allows a comparison between the
original and new Quickloader accounts, allowing the differences to be viewed.
Continue Despite Mismatch
: Click this button to ignore and close the
Account and Panel Mismatch
dia-
log despite the mismatch, and manage the mismatch later. After this dialog closes, you can then attempt other
