Elmo
EL.MO. ETR panels are multi-area intrusion detection systems. The integration with HSYCO can be accomplished via direct control through the RS232 port on the panel.
Contents
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 |
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
