Connecting to the device through a server/receiver which uses the TELLMon protocol:
• Select the “TELLMon protocol” option in the “Connection type” menu.
• If you have already registered the device in the "Device register" menu, select the device
you want to connect to from the "Device Name" drop-down menu. Otherwise, you can
either enter the data needed for connecting, in the corresponding fields, which will be
recorded automatically in the device register using the entered device ID as the device
name, when you start connecting to the device. For this, select the server or receiver from
the “Server/Receiver” drop-down menu, where the device is connected, enter the identifier
of the device in the “Device ID” field, and the device password in the “Device password”
field. The server or receiver contact details should be recorded in advance in the
“Server register” menu
Entering the device password.
o Super administrator permission: full access to all settings. (Default password: 1234).
o Administrator permission: can only access settings enabled by the superadmin.
You can configure the admin password separately (see chapter “Connection type”).
o Connecting remotely without a password is not possible.
• Click on the “Connect” button.
• The Adapter2 device that communicates using the TELLMon protocol is not online
continuously. The device connects to the server or receiver only when it sends a
supervision message or reports an event. Therefore, after clicking on the “Connect”
button, you will have to wait for the device until it next connects to the server or
receiver to send a supervision message or report an event. This is the moment when
the programming software can connect to the device. Therefore, if the device is
configured to rarely send supervision messages to the server or receiver, the
programming software can connect to the device after a long time only (depending
on the configured supervision message sending interval).
• The connection status is indicated by the status icon in the top left corner of the program
window:
disconnected (green)
connected (gray)
• After connecting using the valid password, you can configure the device, change settings,
download event logs, monitor system status, and perform controls.
• To disconnect from the device, click on the “Disconnect” button.
