Connection to Ethernet via print server PS01a Preconditions for connection An external printer is created in SintesoWorks/Cerberus Engineering Tool for one station. The print server PS01a is configured with the settings needed for the network. Print server PS01a is connected to the power supply and Ethernet. The connection cable has a 9-pole socket and 25-pole connector.
An external printer is commissioned in three or four stages: Satisfy hardware conditions for the corresponding connection Configuration of an external printer in the FS20/FS720 fire detection system with SintesoWorks/Cerberus Engineering Tool Configure print server if the printer is connected to the Ethernet Commissioning external printer Note the product documentation provided in the scope of supply.
The 'external printer' element is created in SintesoWorks/Cerberus Engineering Tool. The document 'Configuration' in the FS20/FS720 documentation includes how to create an 'external printer' element in the FS20/FS720 fire detection system. 1. Create an 'external printer' element in the 'Operation' register. 2. Define the 'visibility' for the printer.
Configuring print server 8 Configuring print server The print server's IP address must be in the corresponding address range of the Ethernet (system) and is defined on the print server. The print server must be configured before connecting to the Ethernet (system). Settings on the print server Subnet screen 255.255.255.0 (basic setting) IP address for print server PS01a in the range between 192.168.200.6 and...
