   The Server mode is not used.

   
   

4. From the Connection drop-down list, select the value for the transport level. Possible values - TCP/IP or RS232 (2).
5. If RS232 connection type is selected, then specify the COM port number, COM port speed, and COM port format parameters (3).
6. If TCP/IP connection type is selected, then indicate the parameters for connection to the Server of Control in this dialog box:
   1. If an IP-address is used for connection, ensure the Use DNS instead of IP checkbox is not set (5) and indicate the IP address and TCP port of Server of Control (4).

   2. If a domain name is used for connection, set the Use DNS instead of IP checkbox (5) and indicate the DNS name and TCP port of Server of Control.
      

      Info
      title Note.
      The use of domain name for connection allows to avoid Agent of Control resetting in case of Server of Control IP-address change.

      
      

7. When still frames or video is sent to Server of Control, the data is transferred in packets. The packet size is specified by the setting named I/O buffer (bytes) (6). For maximum data transfer speed, you are advised to use the value 4096. For poor connections, such as if a GSM modem is used, you are advised to use the value 800.
8. If Client mode is selected, in the Ping frequency (sec) field (7), enter the time interval at which Agent of Control will send messages about its technical state to Server of Control. Minimal possible value is 10 sec. This value does not affect short-term alarms. Messages about short-term alarms are transmitted from Agent of Control to Server of Control immediately after corresponding sensors triggering. Some long-term alarms can also be an exception: for more info see the document Monitoring PSIM. Operator's Guide, section Appendix 1. Data update periods summary
