Overview; Software Features - Honeywell X-618 Commissioning Manual

1 Overview

The X-618 provides a series of complete multiple audio source, and public audio management
solutions. The system allows users to customize the configuration to meet their own requirements.
The X-618 Config software is a specialized tool for configuring the system. The user-friendly UI
allows users to understand and operate the system, as well as configure complex settings.
The X-618 Config software can be configured online or offline. If the software is configured offline,
the configuration data is saved as a project file. The project file (configuration data) is then
uploaded to the system the device is connected to. After the system receives the configuration
data, the system reboots automatically to allow the configuration settings to take effect.
