RG Same Network Receiver

Default: Yes
Selections:
–
–
Use the Route Group Same Network Receiver parameter to ensure that the authentication
keys from the control panel to receiver are the same when the destinations to the receiver use
different IP Addresses or Port Numbers. This parameter also enables the backup destination
poll time to change to the primary poll time in the event of a Communication Trouble event.
Set this parameter to Yes when the following applies:
–
–
–
If the poll rate is set to 5 minutes or faster, there is a possibility that data usage might exceed
your cellular data plan. Be sure that any Communication Trouble events are addressed as soon
as possible.

Time Synchronization

Default:
Route Group 1: Yes
Route Groups 2-4: No
Selections: Yes / No
This parameter enables the control panel to synchronize its time and date with the central
station receiver. Time synchronization requires the control panel to be configured to send
reports to the central station receiver over an IP network (Ethernet or cellular) using the
Reporting Format, page 62.

Yes - the control panel uses the same authentication key to communicate with both the
primary and backup destinations that are the same receiver. Upon detection of a
Communication Trouble on either the primary or backup enhanced communication
destinations, the working destination immediately changes to the faster poll rate.
No - the control panel uses separate authentication keys to communicate with the
primary and backup receivers. Upon detection of a Communication Trouble on either the
primary or backup enhanced communication destination, the working destination
continues to use its configured poll rate. For example: this would be used when reporting
to a receiver over a LAN / WAN and another is reporting to the same receiver over the
Internet from the cellular service provider. This configuration also typically has the poll
rate set to a slower poll rate than the primary such as every 4 hours.
Both primary and backup devices use enhanced communication via an IP destination (on-
board or SDI2).
Both primary and backup destinations are the same receiver with different IP Addresses
that can be accessed from more than one network such as on a LAN / WAN and over the
Internet
Both primary and backup destinations use different poll rates, although it is not
necessary.
Time Sync does not work when the Destination Device is set to telephone or the
reporting format is Contact ID.
Time Sync must be performed over a network connection (Ethernet or cellular).
Time Sync is applicable to all route groups, but can only be enabled for one route group
at a time
