4.1.1 Time setup
The time setup interface is as follows: enter into proper date and time, click the OK button,
and the system will save the time set by the user.

3 Time setup interface
In the networking system of multiple hosts, as the host time is required
to be the same, all hosts in the system will take time of the concentrator as criterion.
This means other hosts will align with the time setup of the concentrator
automatically and synchronously, the system time will be synchronized to time of
the concentrator even if other hosts have set the time. Therefore, only the
concentrator has the effective time setup function in the networking system.
4.1.2 Building setup, floor setup
The setup of building and floor is to familiarize the system with the application-engineering
environment. The whole area governed by the system is logically partitioned as follows by the 3
geographic orientation setup:
The system can govern 20 buildings at most, with each building having 10-200 floors. For
a certain engineering, effective buildings and floors are required to be registered by clicking on
the registration column in the corresponding form; "
√
" means registered, "×" means
unregistered.
The building and floor setup shall be carried out at the beginning of
engineering commissioning, as other setups all base on these data. The problem of
skip floor can be solved by floor registration, that is, some of the buildings may not
have a certain floor, like 4F, thus the registration of that floor can be cancelled and
the system will consider 3F and 5F are adjacent and all linkages can be scrolled
normally.
Building setup:
the building can be named in "location description"; the initialization
value in the figure is "building 1-N".
