9.10.4 Using EVS Message Manager Software
The EVS Message Manager software is a software support utility that is used to download recorded messages (in
.SKE1 format stored on your PC hard drive) to the various message locations of the EVS-Series controls.
Messages can be uploaded from the EVS-Series control, stored, and used again in similar installations. The EVS
Message Manger software can also be used to move messages to different message locations. For example, move
message 1 to message 3 memory location.
To read/write .SKE1 formatted messages to and from the main panel, follow these steps:
1. Make sure that panel is in Normal mode.
2. Connect the PC to the panel using a standard USB cable. See Figure 9-10.
