4.1.1 Time setup
The time setup interface is as follows: enter into proper date and time, click the OK button,
and the system will save the time set by the user.
Fig 4- 3 Time setup window
Note: In the networking system of multiple hosts, as the host time is required to be the
same, all hosts in the system will take time of the main panel as criterion. This means
other hosts will align with the time setup of the main panel automatically and
synchronously, the system time will be synchronized to time of the main panel even if
other hosts have set the time. Therefore, only the main panel has the effective time setup
function in the networking system.
4.1.2 Zone setup, Building setup, Floor setup
The settings for zone, building and floor is to familiarize the system with the
application-engineering environment. The whole area governed by the system is logically
partitioned as follows by the 3 geographic orientation setup:
The system can manage maximum 20 fireproofing zones, 20 buildings in each zone,,with
each building having -10-200 floors. For a certain engineering, effective buildings and floors are
required to be registered by clicking on the registration column in the corresponding form; "√"
means registered, "×" means unregistered.
Note: The zone, building and floor setup shall be carried out at the beginning of
engineering commissioning, as other setups all base on these data. The problem of skip
floor can be solved by floor registration, that is, some of the buildings may not have a
certain floor, like 4F, thus the registration of that floor can be cancelled and the system
will consider 3F and 5F are adjacent and all linkages can be scrolled normally.
