CONNECT menu

Select CONNECT to initiate panel login to a matrix.

The panel login process has three phases:

  1. The panel checks the network and attempts to reach the address of the login server.
  2. The panel verifies the user ID and user password.
  3. The panel completes the connection process.

During phase 1 of the panel connection process, only progress messages will be displayed without status codes.

If an error occurs then one of the following status messages is displayed:

Error / status message Description / comments
Network not connected LAN cable not inserted. If DHCP mode selected, a DHCP server was not found.
IVC Server not found The login server is inaccessible or not running.
Login USER xyz denied The login server could not find an online IVC to log the panel into.

The second connection phase begins with the panel identifying itself to the host matrix.  During this phase, error and status messages are displayed with status codes and sub-codes.

Code Error / status message Description / comments
Err 1:0 Check User ID The name or password supplied were invalid.
Err 4:0 Media busy The system is busy and will try again shortly.
Info 3:0 Connecting... OK, connecting to the E-IPA or IVC-32.
Info 5:0 Reconnecting OK (the call is being made again with new codec settings).
Err 8:0 Connection lost The E-IPA or IVC-32 connection was lost.

If the IVC-32 card is reachable, but another error occurs that indicates a more detailed networking or configuration issue, then the error code starts with 6.
