Before you start the equipment programming, define the type of connection to be
used.
There are two programming methods available: local and remote.
5.3.1.5.1.
Local connection
Local connection means that configuration wizard (or, in fact, a computer, on
which it is installed) is directly connected to a relevant connector of the alarm
control unit. The connection is executed through a dedicated programming cable
using RS-232 serial port.
To program the equipment or perform other activities (i.e. read the settings from
the equipment, change the firmware, etc.) you have to define the connection
parameters.
For the above purpose you shall use the above window, available after activating
File option from the Main Menu and selecting Connection function or after clicking
icon on a taskbar and opening RS-232 tab.
Define:
Connection name, e.g. Local
Select serial port, e.g. COM2
Click [Add] button to confirm the setting. The connection is saved (and moved to
the table). From that moment the program will enable a wire connection with the
equipment and allows reading and recording the parameters in the equipment’s
memory.
