Installing Composer Software
on Personal Computer
When setting up a Touch4 system,
you need to design your system using the Composer
software. The Composer software is installed on your
Personal Computer and communicates to the System
Controller via the TCP/IP-based network. The
Composer software communicates to the System
Controller using the network.
To install Composer software:
1.
Ensure that the software and hardware
requirements are met. See “Applications or
Application Requirements” on page 1.
2.
Ensure that your PC is connected to the Internet.
3.
Launch the Composer installation and follow the
instructions on the Z10 Touch Screen.
4.
Follow the instructions on the Z10 Touch Screen to
update to the latest version of Composer.
5.
During the installation process, click the

button for the installation to proceed.
Designing System and Creating Groups and
Users
Designing the system includes using the Composer
software to determine the make up of the Touch4
system. Within the Composer software, you define the
project tree to build the system design. It includes
defining the building, tenants, floors, and areas, and
the devices that you want to control on the system.
You also need to create groups and users at each area
location and define their respective rights to a given
area. Tenants are given the administration rights to
make changes in that domain as defined by building
administrators.
An important part of designing the system is backing up
the design in a project file that you can load later to the
System Controller. See Composer Online help for
information about how to design a Touch4 System.
Installing and Configuring Hardware
In order to use the Touch4™ system to control devices,
you must install the hardware and make physical
connections between devices, then mirror the physical
connections with logical connections in the software
project. Use Table 1, “Connection Worksheet for
System Controller” to plan and make physical
connections and then make the logical connections
within the Composer software.
