Configure a Virtual NetLinx Master using NetLinx Studio

A Virtual NetLinx Master (VNM) is used when the target panel is not actually connected to a physical NetLinx
Master. In this situation, the PC takes on the functions of a Master via a Virtual NetLinx Master. This
connection is made by either using the PC's Ethernet Address (via TCP/IP using a known PC's IP Address as
the Master) or using a direct mini-USB connection to communicate directly to the panel.
Before beginning:
1.
If using the mini-USB connection, verify the panel has been configured to communicate via USB within
the System Settings page and that the USB driver has been properly configured. Changing the Master
Connection type requires a reboot before the change takes effect.
2.
In NetLinx Studio, select Settings > Master Communication Settings from the Main menu to open the
Master Communication Settings dialog (FIG. 32).
