5.5 Configuration Options
The VESDA VLI device dialogue provides a range of configuration options. These settings are stored in the
onboard memory of the detector, therefore any change made using Xtralis VSC which can be viewed on a
VESDAnet will be visible on a programmer, and vice versa.
The following sections provide detector configuration based on using the Xtralis VSC software. Information
on using the LCDProgrammer is contained in the LCDProgrammer Product Guide.
