DATA LINK TO GTI UNITS
The GTI Configurator must be able to communicate with one GTI unit in a system. If two or more GTI Configurator are
permitted to access a specific system, only one can have access at a time. Any changes made to the user database in this GTI
unit will also be made in the remaining GTI units via the PCM/Data bus. The GTI Configurator can communicate with a GTI
unit in a system in one or more of the following three ways (listed in order of increasing difficulty):
Local RS-232 Link - Requires the following:
Available serial COM port on GTI Configurator (PC)
Interconnect cable (PC to GTI) no more than 50 feet long
Remote RS-232 Link with Internal GTI Modem - Requires the following:
Available serial COM port on GTI Configurator (PC)
Interconnect cable (PC to modem)
Hayes (or Hayes compatible) modem (1200 bps)
Interconnect cable (modem to telephone line)
Available telephone line (GTI Configurator (PC) end)
Remote RS-232 Link with External GTI Modem - Requires the following:
Available serial COM port on GTI Configurator (PC)
Interconnect cable (PC to modem)
Hayes (or Hayes compatible) modem (recommend 9600 bps)
Interconnect cable (modem to telephone line)
Available telephone line (GTI Configurator (PC) end)
Available telephone line (GTI unit end - in addition to the normal telephone line going to the GTI unit for
interconnect calls)
Interconnect cable (telephone line to external GTI modem)
External GTI modem (recommend 9600 bps - must match modem at PC end)
Interconnect cable (external GTI modem to GTI unit)
LOCAL DATA LINK
If the distance between the GTI unit and GTI Configurator is short, a cable (no longer than 50 feet) can be connected from the
RS-232 port on the rear panel of the GTI unit directly to a serial COM port on the GTI Configurator. This connection can be
used when the GTI Configurator is located with the system of GTI units or in a nearby office. To set up the local RS-232 link,
use the following procedure:
1. If the COM port on the GTI Configurator is a male DB-9 connector, connect it to the RS-232 port on the GTI unit,
as shown in Figure 23. If the COM port on the GTI Configurator is a male DB-25 connector, connect it to the RS-
232 port on the GTI unit, as shown in Figure 24. A 10-foot RS-232 cable with male and female DB-9 connectors is
supplied with the ELI option.
