Introduction 1. Introduction The HomeLogiXTM Remote Programmer (referred to as HomeLogiXTM) is a software application designed to support installers of the HomeLogiXTM Wireless Panel (referred to as wireless panel). HomeLogiXTM allows its users to define the configuration for a wireless panel, edit the configuration and download it to the wireless panel. HomeLogiXTM displays currently defined wireless panels and the properties for each panel. HomeLogiXTM allows the installer to upload the current wireless panel configuration and make changes. The installer can then download the new configuration to the wireless panel. The wireless panel can be connected to HomeLogiXTM either directly via an RS-232 cable and Rosslare's MD-14 RS-485 to RS-232 converter or remotely using a modem. See the HomeLogiXTM Installer Guide for more details on connecting the wireless panel to HomeLogiXTM. 1.1 Remote PC Activities The following are remote PC Activities which can be performed via the HomeLogiXTM PC Software: • Arming Away • Arming Home • Disarming • Set bypass to zone • Remove bypass indication from zone • Turning on or off a PGM device Note: HomeLogiXTM now enables remote actions when the panel is armed.

Getting Started 3. Getting Started This chapter explains what you need to know before using HomeLogiXTM. 3.1 Basic Concepts HomeLogiXTM is a Microsoft Windows application used to manage wireless panels installed in various locations. The user creates a panel account for each owner of a wireless panel. The panel account holds all the configuration information for a specific wireless panel. The configuration can then be downloaded to the wireless panel via a direct connection to the PC or remotely using a modem. The user can also connect to a wireless panel to check its live status, events log and to make changes to the configuration. 3.2 Running the Software The following section explains how to run HomeLogiXTM. To run HomeLogiXTM: 1. From the Start menu, select Programs > Rosslare > HomeLogiXTM Remote Programmer > HomeLogiXTM Remote Programmer. The Login window is displayed. Figure 3 - Login Window 2. The first time you run HomeLogiXTM, the default User Name “master” and password “xxxxxxxx” are displayed. Click OK.
