software via a PC. This feature enables the system
to be re-configured and checked prior to attending
site simplifying commissioning works on site, enabling
text amendments to be carried out whilst on site and
providing an invaluable remote backup should the need
arise. The system configuration data can also be printed
using the control panels optional in-built thermal printer.
