Master Connection section - Virtual Master communication over Ethernet

When configuring your panel to communicate with a Virtual Master (on your PC) via Ethernet, the Master IP/URL field must be configured to match the IP Address of the PC and make sure to use the Virtual System value assigned to the Virtual Master within NetLinx Studio.

Before beginning:

1.Verify the panel has been configured to communicate through an Ethernet cable (connected from either the panel to a valid Ethernet Hub).

2.Launch NetLinx Studio 2.x (default location is Start > Programs > AMX Control Disc > NetLinx Studio 2 > NetLinx Studio 2).

3.Select Settings > Master Communication Settings, from the Main menu to open the Master Communication Settings dialog (FIG. 40).

4.Click the Communications Settings button to open the Communications Settings dialog.

5.Click on the NetLinx Master radio button (from the Platform Selection section) to indicate that you are working as a NetLinx Master.

6.Click on the Virtual Master radio box (from the Transport Connection Option section) to indicate you are wanting to configure the PC to communicate with a panel. Everything else such as the Authentication is greyed-out because you are not going through the Master’s UI.

7.Click the Edit Settings button (on the Communications Settings dialog) to open the Virtual NetLinx Master Settings dialog (FIG. 40).
