7.6.2 Configuring a Channel

Note: You will need to have the required configuration information available before starting this procedure or
you risk the system timing you out and decommissioning the uncompleted channel and losing all your
unsaved changes.
To configure an individual channel:
1) Login as an engineer or higher access level
2) Select Menu>Configuration>Channel settings.
3) Select the required Module type.
4) Select a required channel and touch 'Select'.
5) Select Enable for a required channel
6) Select Channel Number and Enter Channel Tag
7) Select a detector name and a sensor type to import all relevant configuration parameters from the Sensor
Catalog.
8) Edit the channel parameters
9) Touch Finish if modification of channel settings is complete
10) Check whether the channel settings are valid before making it take effect
11) Touch Apply
An I/O Module will be set into Configuration State if configuration update is attempted for any of its channels
Configuration State means that all commissioned channels on the I/O Module are set into Inhibit state – i.e. the
input channels will not trigger any alarms and output channels will not execute any actions.
You should consider alternative safety measures when performing these procedures.

7.6.3 Editing a Configured Channel

Note: There was two kinds of timeout in menu mode. One is menu timeout and the other is authentication
time out. If there is no touch input, then it will move to upper menu and then finally back to Channel Status
screen. The menu timeout can be configured in Configuration>General>Timeout. The default menu timeout is
90 seconds. The authentication timeout is to force the user to log out automatically when there is no activity
for the configured duration. If the user logged out automatically due to authentication timeout, a user will be
asked to log in again.
To edit an already configured channel:
1) Login as an engineer or higher access level
2) Select the Menu>Configuration>Channel settings and then select an IO module.
3) Select the required channel.
4) Select the screen that you want to edit (refer to previous sections of this manual).
5) Enter the required values in the field New Value and touch 'Finish'.
6) Review all parameters are valid and touch 'Apply'.
