PROGRAMMING THE VSSI-PRO

NOTE "

The VSSI-Pro provides one hard alarm output to trigger other devices such as VCR’s, DVR’s, QUADS, Enunciators, LED’s, or other alarming devices.

The ALARM OUTPUTS menu controls not only the formatting of the external alarms, but also the formatting of the on- screen flags assigned to individual exceptions.

ALARM NO.

Choices: 1 through 16

You have the ability to tie Alarm 1 to any of the programmed exceptions to trigger an external device.

To select the alarm number that you want to program, press the “Up” or “Down” button to move the cursor to “ALARM NO.” and press “Set”. The cursor will start flashing. Press the “Up” or “Down” button to toggle through the values. When you have made your selection, press “Set”. The cursor will stop flashing and you can continue programming your VSSI- Pro.

ALARM TRIGGER

Choices: NONE, RTS, 1-24, 13-24, 1-12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17,18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,24

An alarm trigger is the source of activity programmed to activate a certain alarm. The alarm trigger tells the VSSI-Pro what exception is used to trigger the alarming device or the on-screen flag. The choices are:

Exceptions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17,18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24

(alarms when data is received that matches what you have set in these exception strings).

Exceptions 1-12: alarms when data is received that matches any data set in Exception 1-12.

Exceptions 13-24: alarms when data is received that matches any data set in Exception 13-24.

Exceptions 1-24: alarms when data is received that matches any data set in Exception 1-24 or All

RTS

External alarm input. The VSSI-Pro has 1 alarm input. A contact closure to ground on this input (pin 5 is ground) will trigger this alarm. Coupled with the RTS-triggered text, you can now display a 40 character message from an external alarm input.

None: Sends no alarming data.

NOTE "

In order for you to program an exception to trigger the external alarm number 1 or 2, you must add wires to the DB-9 connector on the VSSI-Pro. The alarm output employs an open collector transistor to activate the external alarms.
