Introduction
The HomeLogiXTM Remote Programmer (referred to as HomeLogiXTM) is a
software application designed to support installers of the HomeLogiXTM
Wireless Panel (referred to as wireless panel). HomeLogiXTM allows its users
to define the configuration for a wireless panel, edit the configuration and
download it to the wireless panel. HomeLogiXTM displays currently defined
wireless panels and the properties for each panel.
HomeLogiXTM 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 HomeLogiXTM 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 HomeLogiXTM Installer Guide for more
details on connecting the wireless panel to HomeLogiXTM.
1.1
Remote PC Activities

This chapter explains what you need to know before using HomeLogiXTM.
3.1
Basic Concepts
HomeLogiXTM is a Microsoft Windows application used to manage wireless
panels installed in various locations. The user creates a panel account for
each owner of a wireless panel. The panel account holds all the
configuration information for a specific wireless panel. The configuration
can then be downloaded to the wireless panel via a direct connection to
the PC or remotely using a modem.
The user can also connect to a wireless panel to check its live status,
events log and to make changes to the configuration.
3.2
Running the Software
The following section explains how to run HomeLogiXTM.
To run HomeLogiXTM:
1.
From the Start menu, select Programs > Rosslare > HomeLogiXTM
Remote Programmer > HomeLogiXTM Remote Programmer.
The Login window is displayed.
Figure 3 - Login Window
2.
The first time you run HomeLogiXTM, the default User Name “master”
and password “xxxxxxxx” are displayed. Click OK.
The first time you run HomeLogiXTM you will be asked to change your
user name and password.
