Addressing the Touchscreen
The touchscreen comes online in Protege GX as an
analog expander
. By default it has an address of 254, which is
outside the range that the controller will accept. You will need to change this to bring the touchscreen online.
To set the address on the touchscreen:
1.
Power cycle the unit.
2.
Open the
Settings
page.
3.
The
Address
will be editable for 2 minutes. Use the
+/-
buttons to set the required address.
Trouble Inputs
Each touchscreen can monitor up to 8 trouble inputs.
Trouble inputs are used to monitor the module status and in most cases are not physically connected to an
external input.
The following table details the trouble inputs that are configured in the system and the trouble groups that they
are associated with.
