Product Overview

1

The CV-TAC400 Entry Phone provides a simple, efficient and cost effective solution to condominium townhouse or gated community access control and suite monitoring. The base unit permits multiple devices for Door, Elevator and Garage control connected to its RS485 network.

The directory lists multiple suites and provides access codes with access levels. The access and elevator levels determine what areas are accessible to the resident.

Access into and throughout a building is provided by means of Entry Phones, Card Readers, Radio Receivers, and Elevator Controllers. The CV-TAC400 greatly simplifies the installation and programming of these devices through a common set of programming algorithms and entry screens.

Elevator control for up to 4 cabs with 48 stories per building is provided. Elevator access may be controlled through any device, i.e. Entry Phones, Card Readers or Receivers, in a variety of practical applications. For example, a visitor may call the suite owner through the entry phone. Upon granting access to the visitor by depressing a key on the telephone or suite panel, the CV-TAC400 will release the lobby door, determine the floor of the suite owner and allow the visitor to have access only to that floor. In another scenario, the Camden CVTAC400 may grant access to a floor through a proximity card or RF transmitter code presented by the user.

The CV-TAC400 is flexible enough to offer a myriad of possibilities including direct elevator access into suites, which is very common in loft apartments.

THE CV-TAC400 is programmed using the SFT5202 Windows Client software which runs on a Windows based PC. The CV-TAC400 may be connected to the Windows PC remotely using a dialup connection or connected locally using a USB to RS485 converter.

All of the program settings may be viewed from the CV-TAC400 LCD screen menu.

9. Establishing a Connection with the CV-TAC400

The CV-TAC400 is programmed via a Windows PC, using an USB to RS485 converter for local access or an optional CV-TAC4M Modem Module for a remote dialup connection.

Remote Connection Using a Modem

Overview

The CV-TAC400 may be connected to a computer system over a telephone line. To do this the CVTAC400 requires the modem module. The computer requires a modem connected to it and the SFTD5202 software.

Using the modem is identical to the RS485 connection after the connection has been made. Because a computer with a modem may be used to manage multiple CV-TAC400’s, the “Open Session” initialization is not used. Downloading and uploading data using the modem is described below in sub-section 11 - ‘Open a Session with the CV-TAC400 (Working Online with a Modem Connection) and sub-section 16, Part B – ‘Uploading Saved Information into the CV-TAC400 – Working Online Using the Modem Module’.

The telephone number and password for each building must be entered into the system. When you wish to update that particular building the dialing information can be selected from that list.

CV-TAC400 Installation Guide | 44

Remote Connection Using a Modem

Overview

The CV-TAC400 may be connected to a computer system over a telephone line. To do this the CVTAC400 requires the modem module. The computer requires a modem connected to it and the SFTD5202 software.

Using the modem is identical to the RS485 connection after the connection has been made. Because a computer with a modem may be used to manage multiple CV-TAC400’s, the “Open Session” initialization is not used. Downloading and uploading data using the modem is described below in sub-section 11 - ‘Open a Session with the CV-TAC400 (Working Online with a Modem Connection) and sub-section 16, Part B – ‘Uploading Saved Information into the CV-TAC400 – Working Online Using the Modem Module’.

The telephone number and password for each building must be entered into the system. When you wish to update that particular building the dialing information can be selected from that list.

Configuring the SFTD5202 Software for the Modem

Overview

Each time the modem is used the modem must be initialized. Once the modem is initialized it may be used until the SFTD 5202 software is closed.

Finding the COM Port

To identify the modem to the SFTD5202 software the computer system gives it a name, such as COM3. To use the modem you must know its COM port number. Determining the COM port varies depending on the computer’s operating system.

Different versions of the operating system will have different methods for determining the COM port. The following discussion may not exactly match your particular system. In general, for Windows Operating

systems the “Control Panel” will have an icon for modem options. It may be under the “Hardware and

Sound” Icon or directly visible. Selecting it will show which COM port the modem is connected to.

Changing the Settings

a. To change the communications settings follow the steps below: b. Start the SFT5202 Windows Client Software c. Select the “Setup” menu. A list of submenus will be displayed d. Select the “Communications” submenu. The “Communication Setting” form will be displayed

11. Establishing a Connection with the CV-TAC400

The CV-TAC400 is programmed via a Windows PC, using an USB to RS485 converter for local access or an optional CV-TAC4M Modem Module for a remote dialup connection.

Remote Connection Using a Modem

Overview

The CV-TAC400 may be connected to a computer system over a telephone line. To do this the CVTAC400 requires the modem module. The computer requires a modem connected to it and the SFTD5202 software.

Using the modem is identical to the RS485 connection after the connection has been made. Because a computer with a modem may be used to manage multiple CV-TAC400’s, the “Open Session” initialization is not used. Downloading and uploading data using the modem is described below in sub-section 11 - ‘Open a Session with the CV-TAC400 (Working Online with a Modem Connection) and sub-section 16, Part B – ‘Uploading Saved Information into the CV-TAC400 – Working Online Using the Modem Module’.

The telephone number and password for each building must be entered into the system. When you wish to update that particular building the dialing information can be selected from that list.

Configuring the SFTD5202 Software for the Modem

Overview

Each time the modem is used the modem must be initialized. Once the modem is initialized it may be used until the SFTD 5202 software is closed.

Finding the COM Port

To identify the modem to the SFTD5202 software the computer system gives it a name, such as COM3. To use the modem you must know its COM port number. Determining the COM port varies depending on the computer’s operating system.

Different versions of the operating system will have different methods for determining the COM port. The following discussion may not exactly match your particular system. In general, for Windows Operating

systems the “Control Panel” will have an icon for modem options. It may be under the “Hardware and Sound” Icon or directly visible. Selecting it will show which COM port the modem is connected to.

Changing the Settings

12. Establishing a Connection with the CV-TAC400

The CV-TAC400 is programmed via a Windows PC, using an USB to RS485 converter for local access or an optional CV-TAC4M Modem Module for a remote dialup connection.

Remote Connection Using a Modem

Overview

The CV-TAC400 may be connected to a computer system over a telephone line. To do this the CVTAC400 requires the modem module. The computer requires a modem connected to it and the SFTD5202 software.

Using the modem is identical to the RS485 connection after the connection has been made. Because a computer with a modem may be used to manage multiple CV-TAC400’s, the “Open Session” initialization is not used. Downloading and uploading data using the modem is described below in sub-section 11 - ‘Open a Session with the CV-TAC400 (Working Online with a Modem Connection) and sub-section 16, Part B – ‘Uploading Saved Information into the CV-TAC400 – Working Online Using the Modem Module’.

The telephone number and password for each building must be entered into the system. When you wish to update that particular building the dialing information can be selected from that list.

Configuring the SFTD5202 Software for the Modem

Overview

Each time the modem is used the modem must be initialized. Once the modem is initialized it may be used until the SFTD 5202 software is closed.

Finding the COM Port

To identify the modem to the SFTD5202 software the computer system gives it a name, such as COM3. To use the modem you must know its COM port number. Determining the COM port varies depending on the computer’s operating system.

Different versions of the operating system will have different methods for determining the COM port. The following discussion may not exactly match your particular system. In general, for Windows Operating

systems the “Control Panel” will have an icon for modem options. It may be under the “Hardware and

Sound” Icon or directly visible. Selecting it will show which COM port the modem is connected to.

Changing the Settings

a. To change the communications settings follow the steps below: b. Start the SFT5202 Windows Client Software c. Select the “Setup” menu. A list of submenus will be displayed d. Select the “Communications” submenu. The “Communication Setting” form will be displayed

File: CV-TAC400_IN_MAN__NF_REV6.doc Revised: September 2, 2014 Part No: 40-82B113

e. In “Connection” box select Modem.

CV-TAC400 Installation Guide | 100

f. In the “Com Port” drop down box, select the COM Port the Modem is connected to. g. In the “Data Bits” box select 8. h. In the “Flow Control” box select “none”. i. In the “Parity” box select “None”. j. In the “Stop Bits” box select “1”. k. In the “Echo” box select “”Off”. l. When you are done Save the settings by selecting the “Save Settings” button

Initializing the Modem

NOTE: The modem will remain initialized until the SFTD5202 software is shutdown. This initialization procedure must be performed each time the SFTD5202 software is restarted.

To initialize the modem follow the steps below:

a. Ensure the “Communication Setting” form is displayed.
