Creating a new project file<br />
If a panel is to be controlled with the PC Client software for the first time, a new project must be<br />
created. The "Project Creation Wizard" is launched using "Project -> New". The Wizard asks the<br />
user to specify a device name (e.g. "Office panel"), a more accurate device description<br />
(e.g. "Panel next to door into office") and the important IP communication parameters as a precondition<br />
for perfect communication between the software and the panel. The necessary settings<br />
of the IP addresses and ports must agree with the IP settings of the panel.<br />
If, at the time a project is created, there should not be any valid IP parameters available or various<br />
parameters change, they can also be set or changed later as part of configuration<br />
(menu "Settings -> Device connection settings").<br />
The Project Creation Wizard is exited when all the entries when made correctly and the "Complete"<br />
button is pressed. The PC Client software transfers the IP settings of the Wizard to the<br />
configuration and enables the "Remote operation" and "Settings" menus. After this, the PC Client<br />
software is ready for operation.<br />
"Project -> Save as" allows the project to be saved after creation, archiving them for later access.<br />
Opening an existing project<br />
A project file is usually available when a panel has been connected and configured using the<br />
PC Client software and then a project file is created and saved. "Project -> Open file" can be<br />
used to open existing project data and read it into the PC Client software. Then the "Remote operation"<br />
and "Settings" menus are enabled. After this, the PC Client software is ready for operation.<br />
If an existing project was opened and then the "New" menu item is opened, then all the settings<br />
of the current project are lost and replaced by the Project Creation Wizard. For this reason, it is<br />
wise to save and close opened projects before creating new projects.<br />
i The following should always be observed with regard to communication between the PC<br />
Client software and the panel:<br />
A panel can therefore be configured or operated by only one PC Client software at any one<br />
time, i.e. by just one PC. Simultaneous control with a second PC is not possible. However,<br />
control by different PCs at different times is possible.<br />
However, the PC Client software can be launched several times on a PC, allowing simultaneous,<br />
independent control of multiple panels (different IP connections).<br />
