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 />
