Ethernet card programming
If you are using the optional Ethernet network card, you must configure the IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway so that it can communicate on the network.
Contact your network administrator to obtain this information or use the default
settings. The network card can be used to send event information to a central
monitoring station, download to the panel from the configuration utility, or upload
and view system reports using the configuration utility.
Network card default settings:
IP: 192.168.001.003
Mask: 255.255.255.000
Gateway: 000.000.000.000
To program network receivers:
1. Display the panel configuration options menu. See
“Panel programming” on page 103.
2. Choose IP.
3. Enter the network card’s IP address.
4. Choose MSK.
5. Enter the network card’s subnet mask number.
6. Choose GWY.
7. Enter the network card’s gateway number.
8. Choose Save.
9. Press the Menu button to exit menu mode, or
continue programming.

Setting the Lock Remote Read function
Lock remote read controls incoming TCP/IP communications when a network card is
installed and it is connected to a LAN or WAN. It restricts Telnet, ping, and CU read
requests at the panel so that unwanted access to the panel is restricted, almost like a
firewall.
Note: Lock remote read is active when no one is logged onto the panel or if someone
with a level one password is logged on. When you log onto the panel with a level two
password, all communication options are available and there are no restrictions.
