LOCAL CONFIGURATION
The “Local” configuration is the only one allowed for the first
configuration of HI504901 supervisor. This type of configu-
ration takes place between the HI 504901 device and a PC
(placed near) with HI504901SW installed, through a serial
cable connection.
To connect the HI504901 supervisor to the PC, use an
HI920010 cable. Plug one connector to the HI504901
device RS232 auxiliary connector (PC config port) and the
other one to a serial port of the PC. Before connecting the
supervisor to the PC, read the computer manual.
To proceed with local configuration, select the “Local” con-
nection type on HI504901SW “Configuration Settings”
window, and on “Serial communication port” section the PC
COM port to which the serial cable is connected. Then press
“OK” to proceed (see “General Settings” section).
Note The first configuration of HI504901 must be done through
a local configuration because it is necessary to set up the
SIM card PIN code and at least one cellular phone number
for the alarm SMS sending.
Note If no answer is received from HI504901, an alarm window
will be displayed by the application software. Check if the
serial cable is correctly connected or if the HI504901 is
busy (a remote configuration or a remote connection or a
polling procedure are taking place). Try later for a new local
configuration attempt.
REMOTE CONFIGURATION
The “Remote” configuration takes place between the
HI504901 device and a PC with HI504901SW software
installed, through a data call made by a modem connected
to the PC. In this way all HI504901 parameters can be re-
configured (excluding the SIM card PIN number), even if the
supervisor is located far from the PC, without requiring to
move the PC where the HI504901 is physically installed to
make a local configuration through serial cable (see “Local
Configuration” section).
To proceed with the remote configuration, select the “Remote”
connection type on HI504901SW, by checking the proper
box. On “HI 504901 phone number” field enter the phone
number of the SIM card inserted in the HI504901 and the
password (only if it was set in a previous configuration).
INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
The HI504901 supervisor is not provided with keyboard or
display for user interfacing purpose. For first installation and
for successive changes of the system configuration, it is nec-
essary to use the HI504901SW Windows
® compatible
application software provided with the instrument.
