13.0 Using the Central Station
Automation System with
the Receiver
If using a Bosch Security Systems, Inc. receiver,
connect a central station automation system
computer to the COM3 port (automation computer
port) on the rear of the receiver with a null-modem
cable. Refer to the D6600/D6100i Computer Interface
Manual (P/N: 4998122703) for additional information.
Standard automation reporting usually sends RS-232
serial data from the receiver COM3 port to a COM
port of a separate automation PC (refer to COM3
Automation Configuration in the D6600/D6100i
Program Entry Guide [P/N: 4998122702]). With no
additional programming required at the D6600, you
can use the same serial communication across a
network connection by using D6680s at both ends of
the automation communication path. The D6600 still
sends the standard serial data, but the D6680s
communicate with each other, convert the data back
to the standard RS-232 that the automation computer
can interpret, and transmit that data back over the
network.
Some messages might go
unacknowledged (NACK) due to
increased network activities. This forces
the D6600 to resend these messages.
Refer to the Conettix D6600 Network
System Guide (P/N: 4998122712) for
complete details on network
communications and programming.
