Option 10: Input RRLLL Digits
Default (5)
Indicates the number of expected digits in the computer message header from the line card.
Option 11: Output RRLLL Digits
Default (5)
Indicates the number of digits the receiver will send in the header to the automation output. This should be left as 5 unless the automation
software does not support the SG-System III output protocol. This will affect both System style message and Channel style messages.
Option 12: Heartbeat Timer
Default (30)
Determines at what time interval, in seconds, the heartbeat transmission will be sent to Serial Automation and TCP/IP port 1025. The heart-
beat transmission is used to ensure that communications through Serial and TCP/IP are functioning normally when there is no traffic from
the receiver. Any traffic from the receiver will reset the timer for the heartbeat. Therefore the heartbeat will only be sent if there is no signal
sent during this programmed time. Enter a decimal number from 01 through 99 to determine the time interval between heartbeat transmis-
sions. Enter the value 00 to disable heartbeat transmission.
NOTE: When 00 is used heartbeats will not be sent to automation software - this will result in the connection
to the automation software being unmonitored.
For UL Listed products, 00 is not permitted.
Option 13: Mute Buzzer
Default (OFF)
A tone will sound when the system receives an alarm and is unable to forward the alarm message to automation (COM1 or TCP/IP). If
enabled, the buzzer will not sound when an alarm is received and cannot be forwarded to an automation output.
For UL Listed products, the permitted setting is OFF.
Option 14: Receiver Number
Default (01)
The receiver number is used to identify the receiver when communicating to the TCP/IP Automation, COM1 and the printer. To change the
receiver number, enter a new receiver number using the hexadecimal numbers "01" to "FE". This will be for all traffic unless overridden by
other options.
Option 15: Printer Test
Default (01)
When this option is enabled, a test signal will be sent to all active printer(s) at 05:00 and 17:00 hrs. This option is set to "1" (on) by default.
