Using the CAD Translator Viewer
The CAD Translator is a software utility that runs in the background and handles the
translation of commands and status messages moving between the Fire Station Alerting
System and a third-party CAD system at the dispatch center.
If your dispatch center is not using a CAD system, then you do no need to read any further
in this chapter.
As mentioned before, the CAD Translator runs continuously in the background. Normally
you would never need to know what it was doing; however, sometimes it could be useful
to watch the messages being passed back and forth for troubleshooting purposes. To
support this, a viewer is automatically installed along with the CAD translator. The viewer
enables you to track messages on both side of the divide. You can see traffic coming and
going on the FSA side and on the CAD side.
Configuring the Translator and the Viewer
There are only two screens involved in setting up the CAD translator and the
communications viewer. They are both based on telling the software where to connect to
get the message traffic.
CAD Translator Configuration
To open the translator configuration window, start the FSA CAD Viewer program and
then click on the
Translator Config
label found just under the title bar on the right.
Note
The CAD Translator service runs in the background as a Windows
service whenever the machine is turned on.
Note
A desktop icon for the Serial CAD Viewer is installed that enables
you to open the CAD Viewer support application. This tool is used
to observe the message traffic moving back and forth between the
CAD system and the FSA Server. It also provides tools for
configuring the CAD translator settings.
Note
If the Translator Config label is greyed out, verify that the Windows
Service “
Zetron FSA Serial CAD Translator Service
” is started.
