8. Computer Interface: Programming and Auditing
NOTE: WHEN PROGRAMMING THE CONTROLLER WITH A LAPTOP ENSURE THAT THE
LAPTOP IS NOT CONNECTED TO ANY POWER SOURCE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT WITH DAMAGES TO THE CONTROLLER AND OTHER
DEVICES CONNECTED TO IT.
The controller can be fully configured and programmed from the keypad; however, for even
moderately complex networks this task becomes tedious. Therefore, we have supplied an interface
and computer program (
M-View
) to allow all database programming to be setup on a computer
(laptop) and downloaded to the M-Controller.
USB A male to USB B male cable is included in the controller shipping package.
8.1 M-View Installation
The M-View software has been designed as an easy-to-use configuration software package,
greatly reducing the lengthy task of entering individual keystrokes through the keypad to quick
configuration with the mouse. M-View allows for both programming and audit control, as you
may download, upload, and save programs to disk.
To install M-View, insert the USB Flash drive into the computer and run Setup.exe. Follow the
instructions on the screen.
If your computer installed previous version M-View, the setup program will remove it first,
then run Setup.exe again to install the latest version M-View.
