SUB MENU (Continued):

6. Export:

Export Data to GF-NS/A

NOTE:

Use Serial Cable supplied with GF-NS/A to transfer data to and from the unit. Plug 3.5mm jack into module, located below the LCD display, right side. Plug serial connector into computer or USB adaptor, then to computer.

IMPORTANT!!!

1.When exporting data from the computer into the GF-NS/A, it will REPLACE any program data already in the unit, whether it had been programmed manually via the keypad or exported previously from the computer. If the GF entrance panel has already been programmed to call the tenant stations, you must edit the ORIGINAL program data in the GF-NS/A. DO NOT REPLACE the original data with new data, as could cause the system to not retain the proper memory locations for each tenant location.

2.To edit the original program, first IMPORT the data from the GF- NS/A into the GF Setup tool, edit it, then EXPORT it back into the unit.

3.If the data in the GF-NS/A matches the saved data file (name.gfn) you wish to export (meaning that no one has manually edited the information in the GF-NS/A since the last export), you can edit the original data file and EXPORT again into the unit.

7. Import:

Import Data from GF-NS/A to computer

8. Quit:

Quit the program

To use the computer to change resident names, access codes, or any other programmed data in the GF-NS/A module, you must first IMPORT the data from the unit into the GF Setup tool.

1.Open the GF Setup tool, but do not enter any data. This will give you a “blank” file in which to import the data.

2.Click OK at this screen. Since this will delete any previously entered data, it is important that you not have any data entered in the program when importing.

3.The data will be transferred from the GF-NS/A into the GF Setup tool on the computer.

1.To close out of the GF Setup tool program, simply select QUIT, then click OK.

2.If any data has been entered but not saved, you will be prompted with the above popup. Choose whether to save last inputted data.
