4.4.7 Defining configuration defaults for device settings
PowerMaster-360R enables you to define the default parameters used during enrollment and to change them
whenever you wish so that new devices enrolled into the system will be configured automatically with these default
parameters without the need to modify the configuration of each new enrolled device. You can use a certain set of
defaults for certain group of devices and then change the defaults for another group.
IMPORTANT: Devices that were already enrolled in the PowerMaster-360R system before the defaults have been
changed will not be affected by the new default settings.
To Define the Default parameters of a device Group proceed as follows:

 – Changing Defaults
[1]
Enter the Installer Mode menu, select the 02.ZONES/DEVICES option (see section 4.2) and then select the
DEFINE DEFAULTS option.
[2]
Select the respective Group of the device you wish to define its defaults. For example, MOTION SENSORS.
[3]
Scroll the parameter list of the Device Group and select the Default Parameter you wish to change, for example:
Event Counter. The list combines the parameters of all devices in the group, for example, the parameters of
all types of Motion sensors.
[4]
In the example, the existing default setting of the Event Counter for enrolled motion sensors was
Low Sensitivity (marked with ) . To change it to High, scroll the menu until the display shows High and press
the button. The new default for the Event Counter parameter setting of Motion Sensors enrolled from
now on will be High.
[5]
The new default does not affect motions sensors that were already enrolled before the change was made but only
new motion sensors that will be enrolled in the PowerMaster-360R after the change is performed.
4.4.8 Updating devices after exiting installer mode
When exiting the Installer mode, the PowerMaster-360R panel communicates with all devices in the system and
updates them with the changes that have been performed in their Device Settings configuration. During the updating
period, the display indicates DEV UPDATING 018 where the number (for example, 018) is a countdown of the
remaining number of devices yet to be updated.
