In Configurable Mode, VisionNet products are controlled by the Vision.net System protocol (VNS). All Vision.
net devices must be given a Station ID (or address), which identifies the device on the network and allows it to
avoid network collisions when transmitting data. Station IDs are in the range of 1 to 1023. The Network ID for the
panel will be pre-assigned at 1 by the factory and will need to be set to the required address and programmed
as required for your installation. Vision.net stations are programmed and have their ID’s set using the Vision.net
Designer software.

In order to determine if a Vision.net 4.5 Network device is communicating, a network test signal can be sent.
See either Standard Mode or Configurable Mode for instructions.

To enter standard mode:
Step 1.
Press and hold Buttons 1, 3 and 6 for 3 or more seconds to enter programming mode, when in pro-
gramming mode, Button 1 will blink once every 2 seconds and transmit a Set Station ID command on
the SVN485 network.
Step 2. Verify that all other stations on the network are also blinking. If they are not, look for a broken wire or
a mis-wire between the previous blinking station.
Step 3. Cancel programming mode by tapping Button 1 two more times.
