Issue
SIGNAL software is connected serially to a Network 8000 LCM. The upload function in Project Manager fails. What are the communication settings in SIGNAL for this type of interface?
Environment
SIGNAL - all versions
Cause
Communication setting error
Resolution
There are three possible address settings when adding a "Panel" to a Network 8000 gateway record:
- NETxx:GCMxx:LOCAL (connect to any GCM)
- NETxx:GCMxx:LCMx (connect to any LCM across the network)
- NETxx:LCMxx:LOCAL (direct serial connection to a LCM) In this case, modify the address field to match the format listed in 'C)'.
Refer to page 7 of the SIGNAL Network 8000 Interface Supplement (F-26225).
