Elmo

EL.MO. security panels are multi-area intrusion detection systems. The integration with HSYCO can be accomplished via direct control through the RS232 port on the panel. The panels supported are: ETR, Pregio, Vidomo, Proxima (FW ver >= 1.0.9) and Titania (This driver is also compatible with IESS ETR series)

Communication

Employ the RS-232 cable provided with the EL.MO. panel to connect it 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

Or connect the EL.MO. panel using the ethernet/serial converter ELAN100 (default tcp/ip port 10002) or the ethernet interface MDLAN (default tcp/ip port 10001) or direct tcp/ip connection on port 10001.

EL.MO. Configuration

For the newer "G2" series of EL.MO. ETR panels it is necessary to enable the compatibility mode for direct connection in the panel configuration. Refer to its manual for further details.

HSYCO Configuration

Add an ELMO I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:

Communication

• Comm ID: select the comm port connected to the panel.

Authentication

Required for Pregio, Vidomo, Proxima and Titania panels

• User: user id used by the I/O Server to authenticate (0 - 65535)
• Password: numeric password for the specified user (tech code)

High Availability

• Shutdown when inactive: defaults to true.
