VISOR ALARM – Configuration

III - 34

Doc.DM374-I

Ver.1.0

To configure the event code sent when there is an IP connectivity problem in the VisorALARM
PLUS 2U, use the following command (the default value for this parameter is 356).

PRIMARY ARLY-1 Cfg> user-defined-events network-failure 357
PRIMARY ARLY-1 Cfg>

Lastly, to configure the event code sent when an mIP/IPDACT installation (register) packet is
received, the following command is used (the default value for this parameter is 531).

PRIMARY ARLY-1 Cfg> user-defined-events mip-registration 352
PRIMARY ARLY-1 Cfg>

5.8. Configuration pattern

To simplify the mIP/IPDACT installation task, the VisorALARM PLUS 2U has a feature which
permits you to install an mIP/IPDACT by configuring a reduced set of parameters. Through a
“register” operation you then receive the rest of the configuration from the VisorALARM PLUS 2U.
The complete process is described below:

The installer configures the following parameters in the mIP/IPDACT either through a serial

console or telephone console:

o

Client account number

o

IP address and mask

o

Default gateway IP address

o

VisorALARM PLUS 2U public IP address

o

VisorALARM PLUS 2U UDP port

Restart the mIP/IPDACT.

Execute the “register” command, introducing the installer password.

The mIP/IPDACT sends a “register” command to the VisorALARM PLUS 2U configured

address and port, encrypting with the installer password.

The VisorALARM PLUS 2U receives the message. It checks the configuration pattern list it

has configured and tries to decode the message with the password for each pattern. If the
message decodes correctly, the device assumes that it is this pattern it has to use and generates
a configuration for the said mIP/IPDACT based on the configuration pattern parameters.

Sends the configuration to the mIP/IPDACT, encrypted with the installer password.

The mIP/IPDACT receives the configuration, activates it and subsequently saves it.

Therefore, you must configure at least one configuration pattern if you wish to use this type of
installation. It makes sense to add more than one configuration pattern if you want to configure
mIP/IPDACTs with different parameters.

It’s possible to establish all the mIP/IPDACT parameters through configuration patterns with the
exception of the client account number. However, you do not need to specify all the parameters which
are configurable in an mIP/IPDACT, only those that you wish to change in the mIP/IPDACT. Those
parameters which are not specified in the pattern remain configured in the mIP/IPDACT with the
factory settings.

To create a configuration pattern, execute the following command. In this example, a pattern with
identifier 5 will be created.

PRIMARY ARLY-1 Cfg>cfg-pattern 5 default
PRIMARY ARLY-1 Cfg>
