Figure 5-13: VESDAnet Communications Options
The Communications configuration options are as follows:
l
Preferred Port:
The preferred VESDAnet port to be used to transmit network data from this device. The
non-preferred port is used if for some reason transmissions on the preferred port fail. For best
performance in large networks, this setting should be randomly distributed between connected devices.
l
Loop Open Ended on This Device:
This should be checked if the network has been wired so either
VESDAnet port A or VESDAnet B is not connected on this detector. (Xtralis recommends that
VESDAnet ports A and B are always connected so this option should normally not be checked.).
l
Status Update Interval:
The minimum time interval between status updates for the selected detector.
5.5.3
Ethernet Options
The Ethernet options provide the ability to configure the detector to join an existing wired Ethernet network
using the normal building network connection process or be directly connected to a PC or laptop.
Figure 5-14: Ethernet Options
The Ethernet configuration options are as follows:
Dynamic IP Address Configuration
l
Automatically obtain IP Address:
Controls whether the VEP-A00 uses a static IP address or
automatically obtains an address from a DHCP server available on the building network. If this option is
selected, the IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway fields are disabled. Once the IP address
has been successfully obtained by the detector, it is displayed on the detector detail status screen.
