Commissioning instructions

Vigilon Compact Network

A VIGILON Compact network can consist of a number of control panels and network nodes wired
together in a secure loop. A secure loop is achieved by installation of a network card in each
VIGILON Compact (VA) panel and VIGILON Compact Network Node to facilitate the network
interconnection of panels and nodes.
Each standalone system is first commissioned before being networked together with other panels
and nodes.
The network commissioning process involves systematic introduction of each standalone system to
the network with tests to ensure the network is working.
The whole networked system is then configured and tested to ensure alarms and global controls
and operates to site requirements.
"
When setting the address switches on the 'network card', ensure the network controller
which can be the network node or panel is given the lowest address.
A network controller is a node that can be connected to a Central monitoring system.
All panels in a networked system must operate at the same baud rate, normally this is
38.4K where copper network card is being used.
