LEARN Programming

The LEARN mode enables you to efficiently configure all connected, addressed

input and output devices. (Refer to

Section 3: Installation – Addressing SLC Devices, for detailed instructions.) Only authorized users may access this function.

LEARN generates a list of all points, which may be viewed through the Points and Zones functions on a remote computer.

(Refer to the “Configuring Points” and “Mapping Zones” sections for details.)

To run the LEARN mode:

1. From the control panel, press the Enter button to display the Main Menu.

• Press 6 to select Programming. The "Enter Code" prompt displays.

• Enter the user code as prompted. The “1 Learn” prompt displays.

• Press 1 to select LEARN. The "SLC Initializing" prompt displays, and the system begins the initialization process.

2. Results are grouped by device type. If no changes are detected, the prompt “No changes” displays.

• Use down arrow to scroll through results by device type:

1=P-Link Found

2=P-Link Removed

3=Pts Found

4=Pts Removed

5=Pts Changed

Esc=Exit

Note: The abbreviation “Pts” refers to addressable SLC points.

• Select Esc when finished reviewing results. The system prompts to save or discard file.

3. Press 1 to save changes; press 2 to discard changes.

• If option 1 is selected, the “Accept confirmation” prompt displays.

• Press Enter to accept or Esc to discard.

4. Press Esc to exit programming menu.

Connecting the Computer and Panel

This section provides instructions on setting up connectivity between a laptop or networked computer and the control panel. Once

this is achieved, you may program your system using the panel configuration software.

Note: These instructions are relevant to all system configurations. If your PC connects directly to the panel, any

procedural differences are noted throughout.

Connecting a Computer to the Panel via a Network:
1. Connect cable to the Ethernet port on network (or directly to the panel if not using a network).

2. Connect Ethernet cable to port as shown below.
