Allowing Remote Access
It is possible for the Installer to gain access to the control unit of your alarm
system remotely. They can do this from their PC either over the telephone
network or through a network cable connected directly to the control unit. (If
your alarm system uses an i-on30EX or i-on30EXD then note that it cannot
communicate over a network cable.)
When the control unit is delivered from the factory this facility is turned off.
If an Installer wants to connect to your control unit remotely then a Master
User can turn the remote access facility on.
Important:
Verify that the
Installer requesting access IS your authorised installer. Switch off remote
access once the Installer has finished.
If you turn remote access off then you can still make the control unit start a
call out to an installer who is using i-on Downloader (see page 102). To
turn remote access on (or off):
