Chapter 3: Configuration and commissioning
38 2X Series Installation Manual
When configuring your fire system using the Configuration Utility:
1. Configure the communications settings if you plan to download configurations
using an Ethernet connection. This is not required if you plan to save
configurations to a PC connected to the control panel USB connector.
2. Configure the date and time at the control panel and load the configuration as
described in “Loading and saving configuration files” on page 64.
For more information on the Configuration Utility, contact your local distributor.
Control panel configuration recommendations
Use the control panel configuration wizards to guide you through the
configuration process for most applications.
To access the configuration wizards press F1 (Wizards) from the installer level
Main menu.
In general we recommend the following configuration order:
1. Control panel configuration (date and time, expansion boards, control panel
ID and description, fire network, and communications). For more information,
see “Panel configuration” on page 53.
2. Field configuration (loop devices, zones, and control panel inputs and
outputs). For more information, see “Field configuration” on page 73.
3. Change all default passwords for increased security. For more information,
see “Changing your password” on page 100.
Configuration controls
Use function buttons F1 to F4 and the jog dial (see Figure 3 on page 10) to
navigate the LCD menu, to select menu options, and to enter passwords and
system information, as shown below.
