4.1.UltraSite32 Setup as Alarm Re- ceiver for SS-100

1.Open UltraSite32 and add a site for the Reflecs controller that will be connected via Lantronix.

2.Right-click on a site in the Tree View and select Edit Communications Information to open the Edit Site screen:

Edit Site Screen in UltraSite

3.Select the Network/Serial Gateway radio button under the Connection section along the bottom left of the screen.

4.Enter the IP address for the Lantronix in the Address field and 3001 in the Port field under Network Settings.

5.The site ID is used to match alarms to a site in the UltraSite32 database. Enter a site ID in the Site ID field. (Note that the site ID you enter must be unique. If the site ID entered is already assigned to another site, you will be prompted to enter a different site ID number.) Do Not leave the Site ID field blank: if left blank, no prompts to enter a different site ID number will appear, but the alarm receiving will not function correctly.

6.Connect to the site and do a site inventory. This will send the site ID to the Reflecs box. Note: Be aware that if any user connects to this site from their own stand-alone UltraSite32 and they have a site ID configured, the site ID in the Reflecs will be overwritten. This will effectively break the alarm receiver setup. Although not manda- tory, an access code could be set up for the site as a security measure.

7.Open regedit from the Start menu and navigate to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Soft- ware\CPC\UltraSite32\Network. Add a new dword value called ReflecsSerialGatewayLis- tenPort and set it to the value of the port chosen.

8.Close and restart UltraSite to save port settings.

4.1.1.Troubleshooting

Close and restart UltraSite 32 if error messages regarding “failure to open a listening port” appear. This message indicates the port number is currently in use by another PC. Change the port number to one that is not in use.

4.2.BCU

1.Log on to the controller.

2.From the Main Menu screen, select 7. BCU Con- fig to open the Configuration screen and 5. Remote Comm to access the RS-232 Communi-

cations Setup screen X V :

RS-232 Communications Setup Screen

3.Set LAN Adapter as the Dial-out Device.

4.Enter the Dial Strings in the Dialout Phone #1 or the #2 field. The format is IpAddressHost- Name:PortT. For example, if the UltraSite32 computer has a static IP address of 10.10.67.119 and it is listening on port 3026, then the dial string would be 10.10.67.119:3026T. (Note that the dial string must end in the letter T.)

4.3.BEC

1.Log on to the controller.

2.From the Main Menu screen, select 7. Configu- ration to open the Configuration screen and 5.
