3.4 Programming Path Numbers and Network Addresses for
Enhanced Communications
Enhanced communications is the ability to communicate by some means other than the
standard digital dialer. In this section, programmable parameters allow you to define up to
four separate enhanced communication paths to which events can be routed. To route an
event (such as an Alarm or Trouble) to an enhanced communication path, additional
programming must also be completed in Section 3.3 Routing, page 23.
Enhanced Comm
Determines if the control panel allows enhanced communications over the SDI bus.
Events can be routed to as many as four possible network destinations over communication
modules on either the SDI or SDI2 bus. The communication device and path destination are
called the route and are selected for each route group with the RG# Primary Device and RG#
Backup Device prompts.
If events are to be routed to an IP address (in a private LAN or WAN application), determine
which path is used (Path 1 to Path 4), and enter the appropriate IP Address for that path
(refer to Section Path # Network Address, page 41).
If events are to be routed to an SDI Path but not to an IP Address, allow the setting for Path #
Network Address to remain at 0. Path # Poll Rate, Path # Ack Wait, and Path # Retry Count
must be programmed.
Keypad Programming to Enable or Disable Enhanced Comm
D1255
1. Refer to Section 2.5.1 Keypad Programming Menu, page 12 to access Keypad Programming
and navigate to the ENHANCED COMM option. Press [ENT].
2. The keypad shows the current setting by alternating between COMMUNICATIONS> and
ENHANCED> YES or NO. To configure enhanced communications, press [ENT].
3. Press [NEXT] or [PREV] to toggle to YES to enable enhanced communication or No to
disable enhanced communication, and then press [ENT].
When the keypad reads PARAMETER SAVED, your selection has been configured.
D1260
1. Refer to Section 2.5.1 Keypad Programming Menu, page 12 to access Keypad Programming
and navigate to the Enhanced Comm option. Press the Enhanced Comm softkey.
2. The current Enhanced Enabled configuration shows (for example, Enhanced Enabled:
Yes).
3. Press the Edit softkey to change the configuration.
4. Press the Yes or No softkey, and then press the Save softkey to save the changes.
When the keypad reads Parameter Saved, your selection is configured.
Default Yes
Selection: Yes or No
Yes Enable enhanced communications over the SDI or SDI2 bus.
No Do not enable enhanced communications over the SDI or SDI2 bus.
NOTICE!
If using a network as the communication means for UL 864 Commercial Fire applications
(D9412GV4 and D7412GV4), set this parameter to Yes.
