Local Port settings in the Protection System. For setting the Protection System parameters by using the SetPointPS software through the front connection, a special cable, part number 857-VX003, is required for connection to a computer. Once this cable is connected to the front of the Protection System, it associates the connection of the personal computer to the Local Port on the Protection System.
