VertX V1000 (CS) Quick Installation Guide

Step 1 Preparations

1.1 What you need before getting started

Prior to starting the installation, please completely read this guide.
CAUTION: The V1000 is sensitive to Electrostatic Discharges (ESD). Observe precautions while handling the circuit
board assembly by using proper grounding straps and handling precautions at all times.

1.2 V1000

1. Remove the plastic or Mylar cover.
2. Verify the battery is installed. If the battery is not installed, complete these steps:
a. Remove the button cell battery from the accessory kit.
b. Install the button cell battery (+ side up) in the battery
holder, BT1.
c. Verify that the battery jumper is in the ON position (or OUT
position on old covers), P15 connector (V1000).
d. Replace the plastic or Mylar cover.
3. Verify that the V1000 has a termination jumper installed on each RS-485 Port; Port 1, 2, 3 and Port 4; depending on which ports are not being used. The V1000 is shipped with jumpers in the out positions.

Step 2 Hardware Installation

2.1 Mounting Instructions

1. The V1000 should always be mounted in a secure area.
2. Mount the V1000 using the four mounting screws (provided) or other appropriate fasteners. Place the fasteners in the corner holes of the base.

2.2 Wiring VertX

CAUTION: Connectors on the V1000 right and left sides are positioned to be mirror images and are not
interchangeable once the installation is complete. Therefore, you cannot simply unplug a connector from one
side of the board and plug it into the corresponding connector on the other side of the board.
1. Network Connection: Connect the V1000 to the network using a standard Cat 5 network patch cable. Connect one end of the Cat 5 network patch cable to the J1 (RJ-45) connector on the V1000
and the other end to the network connection point (network jack, hub, switch, or router) on your site.
2. Serial (RS-232) Adapter cable (P/N 70007) – The Serial Adapter cable is included with the V1000
controller. The Serial Adapter cable is a six inch adapter that converts the 9 pin MTA header to a standard
DB-9 male connector. This adapter is to be utilized for attaching a standard serial modem cable (not included) to the VertX. This will allow one of the approved external modems (listed in 3.7.1 Modem Setup Requirements, page 19) to be attached to the VertX V1000.
The table shows the P17 pin settings.

4. RS-485 Connections – The V1000 has
two - RS-485 connectors. The V1000 uses
the 10-pin, P3 and P4 for the RS-485
connections. Each RS-485 bus can support a maximum of 16 V100-Series panels using one or two ports.
Having two ports on each bus provides the option of splitting each RS-485 bus into two physical connections, allowing a total of four physical connections for the two busses.
RS-485 busses must be connected in a daisy chain topology and not a star topology.
Note: Each V1000 port and the end V100-
Series, whether it is single or a daisy-chain connection, requires a separate termination resistor jumper.

VertX V1000 (CS) Quick Installation Guide
In the Installer Tools, by default the Convert CRLF to LF box is checked, do not uncheck this checkbox
(found at the top of the Edit screen). This checkbox ensures that Carriage Returns are converted
correctly to line feeds for the VertX controller.
CAUTION: Currently there is minimal error checking on configuration data. If errors occur during startup, you must verify that all configuration data is within valid ranges.

3.4.2 Accessing the Installer Tools

When configuring for a DHCP or Static TCP/IP connection, access the Installer Tools to edit the
configuration files.
1. Open your Internet Browser.
2. Enter the URL of the controller into the Address field.
Static TCP/IP Communication,
DHCP TCP/IP Communication,
Note: The URL is case sensitive and must be entered precisely as shown.
3. Click
. The Installer Tools menu will display.
Assigned VertX IP/InstallerTools.html
VertX_Controller.yourdomain.suffix/InstallerTools.html

3.5 DHCP TCP/IP Addressing

The VertX controller’s default communication configuration is DHCP addressing. When a DHCP address is not provided, the controller will default to a static IP address of 10.19.4.129. When the controller successfully obtains an IP address from a DHCP server, the V1000 communications will use the controller’s hostname. The default hostname of a V1000 is “VertX_Controller.” Access the controller by completing the following steps:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the controller connecting it to the computer or Ethernet Hub. See 3.2.1
Hardware Requirements.
2. Open your Internet Browser.
3. Enter the URL of the controller into the Address field.
August 2005 Page 14 of 26
2004 © HID Corporation. All rights reserved
VertX V1000 (CS) Quick Installation Guide
The default DHCP URL is VertX_Controller.yourdomain.suffix/InstallerTools.html.
Domain names identify one or more IP addresses. For example, the domain name microsoft.com represents about a dozen IP addresses. Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. Every domain name has a suffix, examples of a suffix include .com, .net, .org etc.
Note: If access to the controller is not successful, use the default static IP address (10.19.4.129).
CAUTION: For the DHCP communications to function properly the network must have a functioning DNS
(Domain Name Server) or you will be unable to communicate with the controller.
The following configuration files require editing to enable DHCP.
