Installer Menu Options
To use both the speech dialler and remote dial-in access from Downloader fit a SIM
card that permits both voice and data traffic.
Note that when setting up a remote connection of any kind it is advisable to test the
connection before leaving the site.
In order to use the Downloader software you must program following options:
Account
As part of ensuring the security of a connection, Downloader must use an account name
and serial number for each control unit.
While the control unit is in Installer Menu you can change the account name and serial
number from the keypad: Select Communications - Downloading – Account.
Account Name: This can be any string of alphanumeric characters or numbers up to 16
characters long.
Serial Number: This must be an eight digit numerical string. If the number you wish to use
has less than eight digits then insert leading zeroes.
Connection Type
To choose which physical connection you wish to use select Downloading – Connection
Type. The options available are:
Remote
Local
See "Access Mode" on page 124 if you want the control unit to answer incoming calls from
Downloader without an Installer being present.
Rings to Answer
Select Downloading - Rings to Answer to set the number of rings that the system waits
before answering an incoming call from the remote PC.
Answer On One Ring
Use this feature if the alarm system shares a line with other equipment. Select
Downloading - Answer on One Ring.
When enabled, Downloader "warns" the control unit that a call is coming by ringing the
control unit number, waiting for between one and three rings and then hanging up. The
control unit now knows to expect a call within the next 10 to 90 seconds. Downloader then
rings the control unit again, within 10 to 90 seconds. The control unit answers after the first
ring.
Note: When using "Answer on One Ring" set the number of rings in "Rings to Answer" to a
higher number than that used by the equipment sharing the telephone line with the
control unit. If you do not, then the other equipment will never answer any incoming
calls.
Access Mode
This function allows you to provide extra security when a remote PC is dialling into the
system. Select Downloading, Access Mode.
Page 124
Automatically answer calls coming from a remote PC over the
telephone network. You will also need to program "Rings to
Answer" and/or "Answer on One Ring", see below. (Note that
Secure Callback does not work with this option.)
Connect the control unit to a PC (for example a laptop) using a local
USB cable.
Note: The control unit will leave the Connection Type menu if
Downloader does not make a call within 30 minutes.
