Galaxy

From HSYCO
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Honeywell Galaxy Dimension panels are multi-area intrusion detection systems. The integration with HSYCO can be accomplished via RS-232 serial communication.

Communication

Employ a RS-232 straight cable to connect the panel directly to HSYCO or to an Ethernet/RS-232 gateway.

RS-232 parameters:

Baud rate 9600
Data bits 8
Stop bit 1
Parity none
Flow control none

Galaxy Configuration

It is required to configure the panel for HSYCO to be able to communicate with it. Follow these instructions:

  • Enable the engineer access
    Menu 48.1.1 - set to 1 (Enabled)
  • Enable engineer mode
    Enter engineer PIN, followed by ENT
  • Enable remote access and events reporting
    Menu 56.6.2 - set to 1 (SIA)
    Set SIA level to 4
    Enable (set to ON) all the events to be sent to HSYCO
    Menu 56.6.3 - set an account number (e.g. “0001”)

Options

ID Default Values Description
pin PIN code assigned to the “remote” user. This option is mandatory
maxzone 4158 0 ≤ n ≤ 4158 highest zone number among the zones used on the panel. This option is recommended to improve the driver’s performances
maxgroup 32 0 ≤ n ≤ 32 highest index among the groups used on the panel. This option is recommended to improve the driver’s performances
maxoutput 256 0 ≤ n ≤ 256 highest index among the outputs used on the panel. This option is recommended to improve the driver’s performances
guiobject true true enable support for the galaxy UI object
false disable support for the galaxy UI object
guizones true true enable support for the zones-related UI objects
false disable support for the zones-related UI objects


guioutputs true true enable support for the outputs-related UI objects
false disable support for the outputs-related UI objects
startupevents false true generate IO events also during the driver’s start-up phase
false start generating events only after HSYCO is aligned with the current status of the system
pollinterval 5 n > 0 the data acquisition interval, in seconds
logsize 20 n ≥ 0 the number of log lines to display in the UI object
showall false true in the zones list of the galaxy UI object show all the zones up to the number specified in the 'maxzone' option
false in the zones list of the galaxy UI object show only the zones for which a name has been defined in galaxy.ini

galaxy.ini

The galaxy.ini file is a specific configuration file located in the root folder. Here you can define the names of the zones so that they will be automatically added to the list of the galaxy UI object. Add a new line for each zone using this format:

<io_server_id>.z<n> = <name>

For instance:

gxy.z1001 = Entrance
gxy.z1002 = Corridor
gxy.z2001 = Room 1
