GSC Panel Conversion and Software Update
Conversion from SMS7000 to Encore
GSC control panels used in SMS7000 systems must have their software
updated before these panels can be used in an Encore Control System.
Existing Encore GSC Updates
If an Encore software release adds GSC panel features or corrections, the
same update procedure may need to be performed to enact these changes
on those GSC panels.
GSC Control Panel Software Update Procedure
1. Ensure the System Controller Board (SCB) has the GSC mezzanine
installed.
2. Verify the control panels are connected to the encore frame on the side
the SCB with GSC mezzanine is installed.
3. Ensure the SCB has been updated with Encore 1.7 or later software
using NetConfig.
4. Using a console interface (serial or telnet interface into the SCB) type
either ‘
ls’ or ‘ll’ to display the list of files on the flash card. Verify that
the
gscPanel.mot file is located on the flash.
CAUTION Do not type ‘ls-l’ on the console interface, as it will stop the SCB from
functioning.
