Computer Monitor and Visual Message Display
Figure 27 illustrates the Computer Monitor and Visual Display interface.
If a PC computer is connected to the RS-232 port of the Controller for
the purpose of logging paging activities, you will need to program the
Controller to send signals to it, and turn ON/OFF the Attendant Access,
Telephone Access, and Night Bell signals that would trigger the monitor
to log the event.
To communicate with a visual display, you will need to set the Computer
Monitor option to Visual Display, and enable the Input Monitor and
Remote Monitor options for the interfaces, zones, and zone groups you
wish to monitor. You can also use the Phantom option of the Zone
Output type parameter.
In addition, you will need to program the visual display with the
messages you wish to display.
Required Programming: Computer Monitor, step 10 (set to Computer
Monitor or Visual Display), Input to Computer Monitor, step 11 (select
monitor types).
