Retrieving
The Retrieve function allows you to retrieve a copy of a subscriber panel's programming,
schedules, and user codes.
Note: Close all System Link programming windows before retrieving the file from the
panel.
After selecting Retrieve, the Retrieve From Panel window
appears allowing you to initiate the retrieval of data from the panel.
Select Request Events to automatically request the panel’s events
upon completion of the file retrieval.
To send a time update to the panel after System Link has retrieved
the data from the panel, select Update Time.
Select Disconnect on Completion to automatically disconnect
from the panel.
The Currently Receiving section of the Retrieve From Panel window tracks the status
of the data transfer. The top bar indicates that communication is occurring between
System Link and the panel. The bottom bar tracks the status of the entire file. In the
figure above, the file is almost completely retrieved.
After the information has been retrieved, System Link displays a window with the message
“Panel Retrieved.”
Note: When you retrieve from a panel, any programming changes made in System Link that
have not yet been sent to the panel are overwritten by the panel programming information
that you retrieve from the panel.
