Application Note
Using Configuration Patterns to ease receiver administration.
October 21, 2008
The VisorALARM receivers utilize a unique method of configuration patterns to assist
with the organization of dealers using the VisorALARM Manager Software version 1.3.2.
This not only reduces the level of programming required at the remote by the installer
but also permits easy forwarding of accounts when a dealer wants to move their
accounts or when it is necessary to change IP addresses. This can also be useful when
a receiver becomes full and a central wants to move accounts to another receiver pair.
This method allows the use of static IP addresses at the central station rather than
potentially disastrous DNS methods. Central Stations can also provide a second layer
of security for their dealers by simply changing the password in a configuration pattern.
