Panel-to-panel mode

You do not need to include a console PC as a permanent part of an IP Intercom

System. Here is an example in which panels are configured to “talk” to each other. The software does not need to be running during intercom system operation.

NPanel to panel mode will only work when both panels are in the same network subnet.

Connect for configuration. This connection is not needed for later operation.
