PROGRAMMING THE CONTROL PANEL
KEYPAD PROGRAMMING
Customized programming of the control panel may be accomplished through a keypad
included in the control panel See the Siemens FS-250 Programmer’s Manual, P/N 315-
049403, for detailed information of system programming.
PC PROGRAMMING
Programming the panel may also be done by a temporary connection to the programming
port with a computer.
The SIEMENS FS-CT2 software is available to allow programming the control panel by
connection to a Personal Computer (PC) with an EIA-232 port. This allows ease of
operation by preparing the program in advance and downloading to the control panel in a
simple, rapid operation.
Uploading or downloading of a configuration requires the tech level. The control panel
automatically verifies a downloaded configuration for regulatory and system restriction
compliance. After verifying the new configuration, a comparison of the new and old
configurations may be printed. Switchover to the new configuration requires confirmation at
the control panel. See the SIEMENS Online Help for detailed information of system
programming.
