Edit Network Names

The Edit Network menu allows you to edit the panel name and edit the panels site name.
To Edit Panel Names:
1. Enter the Installer Code. The panel will automatically go to the main menu.
2. Select 6 for Network Programming.
3. Press 2 to enter the Edit Network Names menu.
4. Press 1 to Edit Panel Name. Choose Panel to edit.

6.2.3

Edit Panel ID

This menu option allows you to change the current Network Panel ID. It is best to carefully consider the network
ID setting for each panel. Take into account any future panels that will be added to the network (future wiring of
two buildings together). The Network Panel ID setting has to be unique for each panel on the network.
This menu will allow you to change the currently assigned Network Panel ID to the current Network ID dip
switch setting. The system will be down as the panel needs to reboot in order to complete the transition.
When using the PC configuration software to program the panels, the Network Panel ID will be locked from
future editing. The only way to change it will be to restore defaults and use this menu again.
To Edit the Network Panel ID:
1. Enter the installer code. The panel will automatically go to the main menu.
2. Select 6 for Network Programming.
3. Press 3 to enter the Edit Panel ID menu.
4. If the Network Panel ID is changed and valid, the system will ask you to confirm the change. If it is not cor-
rect, you can change the DIP switches at this time.
5. Press up to select YES and press ENTER to confirm.

Computer Access

An installer at the panel site can initiate communications between the panel and a computer running the HFSS
Honeywell Fire Software Suite (see also Section 10.1). In order for this communication to function properly,
both the computer (running the software) and the control panel must have matching computer access numbers
and computer codes.
To program computer access information:
1. Enter the installer code. The panel will automatically go to the main menu.
2. Select 6 for Network Programming.
3. Press 4 to enter the Computer Access menu.
4. Enter the computer access number (up to 6-digits, default 123456), then press ENTER.
5. Enter the computer code, then press ENTER.
