Initialization

Before your system controller can communicate with an NV9640, you must give it a panel ID.
Follow these steps for each NV9640 you are installing:
1 Power up the NV9640. Do not connect its Ethernet cable. (Disconnect it if it is connected.)
After a few seconds, the alphanumeric display will show 'Acquire IP Address' at the top and
show the panel's current panel ID. The 2 left-most buttons and the right-most button in the
top row now read:
NV9640
PANEL ID
4200
2 Press the 'Menu' button to enter the menu. The menu button now displays 'Exit' . At any time
during this process, you can press the exit button to "back out of" the process. You might
have to press it more than once.
3 Find and press 'Panel ID Entry' among the panel buttons on the left.

The 'Panel ID' button shows the current panel ID — in this example, it is 4200.
4 After you press 'Panel ID Entry' , the panel illuminates 10 "digit" buttons on the bottom row of
buttons. Press the digits of your intended panel ID in order — up to 8 digits. Then press the
'Save' button (on the right) to save the ID, or press the 'Cancel' button to discard the ID.

The new panel ID does not appear until you exit the menu after saving.
5 You may use any other menu function at this time. When you are finished, press the exit but-
ton (which reappears) to leave the menu.
6 After you designate the panel ID, reconnect the Ethernet cable. The system controller will
detect your panel in a few seconds. (All panel IDs must be unique.)
You can now prepare an NV9640 configuration in NV9000-SE Utilities and upload the configura-
tion to the NV9640. You need the panel ID to create a NV9640 configuration. When you upload
the configuration, the panel ID you entered in NV9000-SE Utilities designates the actual panel to
which the upload will occur. If no actual panel has that ID, the upload cannot occur.
