VESDAnet Interface Card Product Guide Xtralis VESDA
®
If the direct serial interface is being used to change settings, these changes
shall be shown and reported on the VESDAnet tools when the user logs out.
The VESDAnet tool shall be unable to change anything until the serial
interface has completed its configuration update.
Note: The installed card will influence the operation of the VLF. See
“VLF features disabled by VESDAnet Interface Card” on
page 11.
Guideline for using the VLF and VN Card with VESDAnet
Usernames and PINs
Configuration access to the VLF with VESDAnet can only be performed by
input of an username and password. In order for a user on the serial
connection to have the same password as when connecting via VESDAnet, it
is recommended to leave the default VESDAnet usernames (DST, USER &
ADM) in place. The password can be changed as usual via VESDAnet, using
VSC or the LCD Programmer.
The VESDAnet passwords for these usernames will then be copied to the VLF
detector by the VESDAnet Interface Card and can be used when logging in
using a serial connection to the VLF.
In a network of more than one detector, the lowest detector zone number shall
write its Password Identification Table (user names and passwords) to all
devices on the network. Ensure the lowest detector address number has
known Usernames and passwords before installation into a network of
devices.
Configuration Upon Installation:
Set the address number and time immediately upon installation or after
Restore Factory Defaults command is performed.
Address Number
The factory default VESDAnet Address is zero (0). The detector address must
be changed from 0 to the required address. The acceptable range is between
1 and 254.
Serial Number
The VESDAnet Interface Card has its own unique serial number. However,
only the ‘host’ detector serial number is reported by configuration tools.
Network Time
Set the time of all the network devices during installation and after issue of the
Restore Factory Defaults function.
