sb81 VMFT Configuration of Basic Control Panel
The following applies to VisionMaster FT software versions 1.5.0 and 2.0.1 ONLY
There have been a number of occasions where problems have been encountered when
configuring the Basic Control Panel. A typical result would be a ‘Control Panel Comms’
alarm is displayed and the Basic Control Panel is inoperative.
If this condition is encountered, it is suggested that in the Control Panel Configuration tool
the ‘Port Name’ is changed from COM10 to COM11.
Gain access to the ‘Service Mode’ and open the ‘Configure VMFT’ tool. For Single Node
systems, Navigate to VisionMaster1:Control Panel Serial Control Port, Port Name (see
picture below) and using the drop down arrow change COM10 to COM11.
For Multi-Node systems each individual node that has a Basic Control Panel fitted will
have to be configured, e.g. VisionMaster1:Control Panel Serial Control Port,
VisionMaster2:Control Panel Serial Control Port, VisionMaster3:Control Panel Serial
Control Port, etc.
