Once an mIP/IPDACT has registered, it saves the configuration in the ARLY interface configuration

5.9. Upload/Download operation
The Upload/Download of a VisorALARM PLUS 2U receiver allows to establish management sessions
from the currently available Upload/Download Software Packages to the Control Panels through
Internet.
Usually, the system is composed by two workstations running Upload/Download software and
connected through a Serial Port to a VisorALARM PLUS 2U receiver (VA-UD com1 and VA-UD
com2) by means of the supplied Micro DB9 to DB9 cables. The VisorALARM is connected to
Internet as usual.
In the client side a mIP-UD or IPDACT-UD device is connected to a Control Panel.
The VisorALARM emulates a modem in such a way that it responds to the AT commands that sends
the Upload/Download Software in order to establish a call with the Control Panel.
The mIP/IPDACT-UD board has a built in V32 modem capable to establish a call with the Control
Panel through the TO-AP interface.
When a call is requested the VisorALARM sends an order to the mIP/IPDACT device to establish the
call with the Control Panel, then if the Control Panel accepts the call, the modems starts the
negotiation and if it finish successfully a data call is established.
From this moment exchanged data between Control Panel and mIP/IPDACT are relayed through
Internet to the VisorALARM receiver that sends/receives the data to/from the Upload/Download
software through the Serial Port.
In order to interface with the Upload/Download software the VA-UD com ports of the VisorALARM
PLUS 2U receiver must be programmed with the suitable serial port speed.
To change the speed of the serial ports used for Upload/Download, use the NETWORK command and
the serial line associated to the Modem Emulation interfaces:
