[. . . ] (Managers password then option 48) Select Option 56=COMMUNICATION [ent] Select 2=RS232 [ent] Select 1=MODE [ent] Select 1=Direct [ent] Select 2=FORMAT [ent] Select 2=Microtech [ent] The keypad will then display 16 alarm type options for triggering alarm messages to be output to the Panel's Log. If the panel is to be used as a remote dial-up unit then the following triggers must be set to ON: 12 MODULES/COMMS ON 13 ELEC. STATUS ON 15 TROUBLE ON 16 LOG ON All others should be set to OFF unless a different alarm type is used. To change: Select trigger type with A or B keys Press 1 for ON or 2 for OFF Press To exit this option: Press [ent] [ent] [esc] [esc] until 56=COMMUNICATION is displayed. Also if the panel is to be used as a remote dial-up unit, the correct account code must be assigned. To do this: Select Option 56=COMMUNICATION [ent] Select 2=RS232 [ent] Select 3=ACCOUNT Number [ent] Enter panel number preceded by zeros to a maximum of 6 characters [ent] e. g. [. . . ] At any time, the panel configuration can be aborted by clicking the Skip Configure button, which will cause the initialisation to skip to setting the panel's date and time and exiting. This form will disappear when the panel's configuration is complete. If more than one panel exists on the system, then this procedure is repeated for each panel. If panel initialisation is skipped the following still occur: · Synchronise the panel's date and time to the Datalog system's time. · Reset all output relays. Operation If the Galaxy panel is connected directly to a Datalog PC then when the Datalog 3 application is started the Galaxy Panel will be initialised. If the Galaxy panel is connected remotely via a communication device such as Adpro VST-10 or DVST, then the panel will have to be programmed via its own keypad. When communication is started following initialisation on a direct connect system, the system will check the state of each zone, and if not secure, alarms will be annunciated by the Datalog. When communication is started following a dial-up link, if remote, the Datalog will read the event log from the Galaxy panel and annunciate alarm, short, tamper and reset conditions on the graphical display. In addition fault alarms will be reported for panel and module tamper conditions, module disconnection and battery failures. Should communication be lost with a panel, a Communication failure alarm will occur and the failure will be flashed on the system status bar. The alarm will be repeated every 15 minutes while communications are lost. An option is available, mainly for engineering test purposes to program a panel via a Remote Keypad, switch output relays and read the events log as it is transmitted to the Datalog. Microtech Galaxy 500/512 Panel Page 4 of 8 CORTECH DEVELOPMENTS LTD Datalog 3 - SMS Software Application Sheet Groups The Datalog allows for up to 100 input groups to be assigned to the system with a text description to identify the group when displayed on the Input Group form. The main purpose of the group is to inhibit or activate all the zones in that group. The Galaxy panel has 16 groups for a Galaxy 500, and 32 groups for a Galaxy 512. It is possible to synchronise Datalog groups with Galaxy Panel groups. This will allow the Datalog zones within the Datalog group to be Active/inhibited when the Panel's group is Set/Unset. To do this requires the Datalog editor program or the information being passed to the installer prior to installation. When adding Datalog Input Groups, the Input Group description must be preceded with a `#' character followed by the panel number, then a 'G' character followed by the group number, followed by a space character, e. g. #1G3 First Floor Alarms, #2G12 Stores Alarms. The Datalog group is then assigned to the individual zones that are members of that group. [. . . ] If using the Remote Keypad, viewing the event log or switching relays, the required panel must be selected first. Datalog Zone Entering a Datalog zone number in this field and clicking the calculate button, will display the Galaxy panel number and equivalent Line/Module/Input Zone number in the Galaxy Panel and Zone field as N LMMZ. Galaxy Zone Field The Galaxy Panel and Zone fields contains the panel zone number on the panel as N LMMZ where N is the Panel number, L is the panel line number, MM is the module number on that line, and Z is the zone number on that module. Typing a relevant number and clicking the Calculate button will display the equivalent Datalog zone number in the Datalog Zone field. Calculate Button If a Datalog zone number has been entered in the Datalog Zone field then clicking the calculate button, will display the Galaxy panel number and equivalent Line/Module/Input Zone number in the Galaxy Panel and Zone field as N LMMZ. · Ensure that the RS232 module switches are set for correct baud rate/Data bits/stop bits/Parity as per the installation section of this document. · Check that the correct Comm port is being used.
