3. Installation
Testing
3 The panel now allows you to enter the panel ID using the panel’s standard numeric keypad (the
same as the fixed category buttons when the panel is operating under the NV9000 system). The
ID you enter is displayed on the first button:
After you enter the panel ID using the keypad, press ‘Save’. You can press ‘Cancel’ if you make
a mistake.
The panel returns to the menu, at which point you should click ‘Exit’.
4 The second LCD button should display ‘Acquire IP Address’ once again as in step 1.
5 When you finish, reconnect the Ethernet cable. The NV9000 system controller will detect your
panel in a few seconds. (All panel IDs must be unique.)
You can now prepare an NV9616 or NV9608 configuration in NV9000-SE Utilities and upload the
configuration to the NV9616 or NV9608. You need the panel ID to create a panel configuration.
When you upload the configuration, the panel ID you entered in NV9000-SE Utilities designates
the actual panel to which the upload will occur. If no actual panel has that ID, the upload cannot
occur.
Testing
A panel test function is available when the NV9616 or NV9608 is disconnected from the system
controller. Run the test to determine the health of your panel. See
Setup Mode on page 54 for detail.
You can also view the software version numbers under setup mode.
These are points to consider after you install your control panel(s):
1 Do the buttons illuminate? When an NV9616 or NV9608 powers up, one or more of its buttons
are supposed to turn green or amber. Does it pass the panel test mentioned above?
2 When the NV9616 or NV9608 powers up and it is connected to the system controller, it should
initialize completely. (That takes a few seconds.) The NV9000 system should load whatever
configuration exists for that panel and the buttons appropriate for its configuration should light.
If you continue to see “No Server,” “Acquire IP Address,” or “Locating Network,” you have a
problem. Reboot everything and try again.
S The panel, by default, acquires its IP address through DHCP on the NV9000’s panel/router
network. You can use the Panel IP Configuration Utility to force the panel to have a static IP
address.
