Introduction
The HomeLogiX TM Remote Programmer (referred to as HomeLogiX TM ) is a software application designed to support installers of the HomeLogiX TM
Wireless Panel (referred to as wireless panel). HomeLogiX TM allows its users to define the configuration for a wireless panel, edit the configuration and download it to the wireless panel. HomeLogiX TM displays currently defined wireless panels and the properties for each panel.
HomeLogiX TM 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 HomeLogiX TM 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 HomeLogiX TM Installer Guide for more details on connecting the wireless panel to HomeLogiX TM .
