Powering-up the Network
¨
Add one panel at a time starting from the network controller, adding one panel/node
at a time to side 1.
"
It can take a few minutes for the system map to update.
¨
For each panel powered-up the network controller will automatically try to establish
communication with the connected equipment.
¨
The network controller will display the status of the network as being started, secure
or non-secure and from now on will monitor and control the network
communications.
¨
Use disable comms to isolate a panel from the rest of the network, ie it operates at the
network card in an echo mode, select Menu On/Off -> [Control] -> [Disable] ->
[Comms] and enter the Network Card address, usually card 6.
How to check a Network map
¨
Using the Menu On/Off -> [Info] -> [Map] -> [NetMap] menu, enter the network
card address, usually card 6 and select [E].
The display will provide a list in cabling order the addresses of panels/nodes in the
networked system.
Here are examples of different networks. The lowest address '1' is normally the
network controller.
