Commissioning
The control panel must be programmed correctly in order for the
module to function as expected. The following section covers the
items that need to be configured on the control panel in order to
make the ComIP module operate correctly.
The actual details on how to program the following items can be
found in the relevant control panel installation manual.
ComIP Address
Each TCP/IP node on a network host has a unique IP address. This
address provides the information needed to forward packets on the
local network and across multiple networks if necessary.
IP addresses are specified as x.x.x.x, where each x is a number from
1 to 254; for example, 192.168.0.200. The ComIP must be assigned a
unique IP address to use on a TCP/IP network. If the address is left
blank or is programmed as 0.0.0.0 the ComIP module will try to
automatically obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (if one is
running on the network).
ComIP Port
The port number used to identify the channel for remote initiated
connections. The default setting is 10001. The range for port settings
is: 1-65535 except for the following reserved ports:
ComIP Gateway
The gateway address, or router, allows communication to other
LAN/WAN segments. The gateway address should be the IP address
of the router connected to the same LAN segment as the ComIP. The
gateway address must be within the local network.
ComIP Netmask
A netmask defines the number of bits taken from the IP address that
are assigned for the host section. The default mask is 255.255.255.0
(8 bits).
ComWiFi
The ComWiFi module allows the Premier & Premier Elite control
panels to be connected to either a Local Area Network (LAN) or Wide
Area Network (WAN). The internet is considered to be a WAN. Once
the control panel is connected to a network the following functions
can be achieved:
• Control the alarm system using the Texecom mobile apps,
and send push notifications
• Upload/Download via Wintex UDL
Two Modules are available
• CEK-0001 Premier Elite ComWiFi (PCB Antenna)
• CEK-0002 Premier Elite ComWiFi SMA (External Antenna)
Typical LAN configuration
Typical WAN configuration
Supported Control Panels
The ComWiFi module is supported on the following Premier & Elite
Series control panels:
• Premier Elite 12/24/48/88/168 & 640
• Premier 48/88/168 & 640 V7 or later
General
The installation of the ComWiFi module requires a basic
understanding of networking and TCP/IP protocol. If you are not
familiar with these concepts, you may require assistance from an IT
professional before attempting to install the module.
The ComWiFi module is designed to be fitted inside the control panel
and is powered via the harness connection supplied.
Onboard or External Antenna
For polycarbonate panels, either the ComWiFi with integral antenna
or the ComWiFi with external antenna may be used.
For metal panels the ComWiFi with external antenna is required.
A 6.5mm hole will need to be drilled in the control panel housing to
mount the external antenna.
