Single Vigilon Network; Single Network - Honeywell Vigilon 4 loop Generic Commissioning Instructions

Single Vigilon Network

A VIGILON network consists of a number of control panels of standalone systems and network
nodes wired together in a secure loop using copper or fibre network cards.
A secure loop is achieved by installation of a copper or fibre network cards in each VIGILON panel
and VIGILON Network Node to facilitate the interconnection of panels and nodes. Each standalone
system is first commissioned before being networked together with other panels and nodes.
The commissioning involves systematic introduction of each standalone system to the network and
tests to ensure the network is working.
The whole networked system is then configured and tested to ensure alarms and global controls
operates to site requirements.
"
When setting the address switches on the 'network card', ensure the network controller
is given the lowest address.
A network controller is a node/panel that can be connected to a Central monitoring
system.
All panels in a networked system must operate at the same baud rate, normally this value
is 38.4K where copper network cards are being used and 115.2K where Fibre network
cards are being used.
