XTRALIS VESDA LASER INDUSTRIAL (VLI) – QUICK SETUP TECHNICAL GUIDE
2012

Purpose

This guide serves as an aide in successfully starting up, connecting to and configuring of the VLI for optimal nuisance
free operation.

Before you get started

Having the right tools for the job ensures that you are well prepared to complete the setup of a VLI system. The
following are recommendations to aide you in preparedness for the job.
1.
Please ensure that you are using the latest version of the product guide and VSC for VLI available on
our extranet at
"Software" as shown below. The standard version of VSC will not communicate with the VLI. A version
of VSC is under test at present that will support all devices when released, after that no special VSC will
be required to support the VLI.
2.
The standard VESDA configuration tools do not apply when connecting directly to the VLI, for this
purpose you have a choice of the following options for communications.
A.
Direct connection to the VLI via a standard local "Type B" USB port. This type of USB cable is most
commonly used with USB printers. The connector that plugs into the computer is known as "Type
A". The USB cable is NOT included with the VLI or sold separately by Xtralis.
B.
The Ethernet port is used for configuration and/or monitoring purposes. It enables TCP/IP network
connection between the detector and a PC or laptop installed with Xtralis VSC or Xtralis VSM4, or
other BACnet protocol compatible applications. This requires either a standard Ethernet cable that
connects the detector directly to a LAN or an Ethernet crossover cable. The crossover cable is a
type of Ethernet cable used to connect computing devices together directly without the use of a
LAN. Please consult with your IT department when configuring communications using the
crossover cable method.
C. The BACnet over Ethernet protocol can be used to interface into compatible BMS or similar type
applications to receive messages from the VLI's LAN port directly. Although the BACnet protocol is
a standard, the messages being delivered therein are proprietary and require qualification before
being provided to an integrator/end user. Contact your local Xtralis Regional Sales manager for
further details.
