206 Module 131: Hardware Programming | Programming a Controller
Programming a Controller
Adding a Controller
To add a controller, select Sites | Controllers from the menu then click Add.
You'll be given 3 options:
1. Use the controller wizard
2. Add an individual controller record
3. Add a new controller based on an existing controller.
This option effectively clones an existing controller,
including all its records (doors, outputs, etc)
For the purpose of this exercise, we are going to use the
first option which adds the controller and the required
hardware records.
Use the wizard to add and link all the hardware you might possibly use. It is much easier to delete unwanted
items than it is to add and link them later.
