Configure a Virtual NetLinx Master using NetLinx Studio

A Virtual NetLinx Master (VNM) is used when the target panel is not connected to a physical NetLinx Master.
In this situation, the PC takes on the functions of a Master via a Virtual NetLinx Master. This connection is
made by either using the PC's Ethernet Address (via TCP/IP using a known PC's IP Address as the Master) or
using a direct mini-USB connection to communicate directly to the panel.
Before beginning:
1.
Verify the panel has been configured to communicate via USB within the System Settings page and that
the USB driver has been properly configured. Refer to the previous section for more information.
2.
In NetLinx Studio, select Settings > Master Communication Settings, from the Main menu to open the
Master Communication Settings dialog (FIG. 47).
