The Paging Interface Adapter unit is an alarm contact input device with 16 inputs and upgradeable to 64. The unit is
programmable by the user, using Microsoft™ Web browser program. Each unit has it own IP address. Simply enter
the IP address on the address line. All data is password protected. The PIA can be programmed from a stand alone
PC with an Ethernet card using a supplied RJ45 Crossover cable, or over the Local Area Network or any where from
the Internet.
The PIA has an added protection of sending a health check page every 2 minutes to alert the user the system is
operating properly.
The PIA will accept Dry (no voltage) contact closure or Voltage, high or low, input. Voltage input range is 6 to 50
volts AC or DC. Each input is fused to protect the inputs in case voltage is applied to a contact input that has been
configured for no voltage. Each contact can be configured for a different individual pager ID (cap code), Alert type
(A, B, C, or D) and repeats ranging from none, 1-4, or until Change of State. Time interval between repeats can be
select from 1 minute to 59 minutes. The paging protocol is a global setting of either Scope
COMP2 and
WaveWare
The PIA can be daisy chained together via RS485 Cat 5 RJ45 cabling to support up to 576 contact inputs.
comPPage’s Paging Interface Adapter (PIA3264) is a unit that was Designed, Developed and Manufactured in the
USA. Each unit has a
™. In addition the PIA supports shift changes, escalation of pages and 2 pulse rates.

All IP addresses on a network or stand alone PC must have the same IP address string. Ie.. 192.168.1.100
and If your system does not support the IP series 192, which is the IP string address the PIA is shipped with
and can be found on the mother board. You must re-assign the PIA IP address to one that is compatible
with your network or PC or change the IP address on the PIA. This can be done by following the steps
below.
Note: Be sure to check with your network administrator before proceeding.
CHANGING PC IP ADDRESS
1. Locate the IP Address on the main board of the PIA3264, you will need to assign a
sequential number to the PC you are using to program the PIA.
2. Locate and Change IP Address.
a. Select Start, Connect To, Show all Connections.
3. Right click on your Local Area Connection and select Properties.
4. Right click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and select Properties.
5. Select Use the following IP address. This will un-select Obtain an IP address
automatically.
6. To the right of the IP address enter your new IP address. Be sure it matches the IP address
that is on the PIA. The Subnet mask should be 255.255.255.0. Select OK to exit the screen .
7. Re-boot your PC and you are ready to log onto the PIA.

CHANGING PIA3264 IP ADDRESS
If the default IP address on the PIA3264 is not compatible with your network you need to access it from
the Internet browser screen and assign a new IP address. You must log on to the PIA3264 to change the
IP address.
1. Connect the PIA to a stand alone PC using the supplied Network Cross Over cable or connect to
your network hub using the supplied Network Patch cable.
2. Apply power to the PIA and turn on unit, the RED power light will illuminate.
3. On the PC Internet Explorer Browser address line, enter the Paging Interface Adapter IP
Address.
4. When the log on screen appears, enter your log on information.
5. The following screen will appear.
6. On the Global Setting page, in the space next to the IP Address, enter the new IP address you
want the unit to have. Be sure to record the new IP address some where, if you forget it there
is no way to access the PIA3264 once you log off.
7. After entering the new IP address, go to the bottom of the page and click on Save Database.
This will write the new address to memory.
8. You MUST cycle the power on the PIA3264 before the new IP address will be effective.

PROGRAMMING
Global Settings
All programming is accomplished on the Master unit.
Any Field not filled in will be disregard.
Date and TimeThe unit has a RTC (real time clock). You must set the clock to the current time so all logs and
Reports will reflect the correct date and time.
1. Date – type the complete date including slash marks. (05/01/2008).
2. Time – the unit use a 24 hour clock. You must enter all digits include colons.(02:15:00)
IP Address
The Address of the unit being programmed.
Slow Pulse Period
This is the pulse rate for the host systems. Slow = 880 m/s. The program will automatically know
the Medium = 440 m/s. If the system has a faster rate than Medium, enter 440 m/s for slow and the
system will adjust the Fast for 220 m/s.
WARNING THIS SHOULD NOT BE CHANGED WITHOUT CHECKING WITH TECHSUPPORT.
Unit ID
Select the type of unit to be programmed. Each unit must be identified as a Master or Slave
1 thru 8.
1. Master

MIXED INPUTS
The PIA3264 has the ability to process different types of data on the same unit. This option allows the user
to select Non-Voltage(dry – N/O, N/C) and Voltage (High or Low). The user can selects VOLTAGE, or Dry for each set of contact.
The rule being the contacts are in blocks of 4. If the user wants to have both Voltage and Dry inputs, the
inputs must be together in blocks of 4 inputs. Each CTBD4 logic card controls 4 inputs.
Example: Master with 16 inputs
Voltage: Contacts 1-4, 9-12
Dry: Contacts: 5-8, 13-16

OPERATION
1. Voltage Input
2. Voltage Alert High
3. No pulsing
4. No Shift
The system will continually scan all contacts at the rate of 1.5m/s. It senses a change on contact 1, the
voltage went from zero volts to +24vdc. The program will check the global programming parameters to
see if Shift, Monitor pagers are selected. If Shift is selected, it will check the clock and see what time the
alarm was activated, then compare that to the Shift schedule. This will determine what pager it pages. It
will select the Active Message and place it in the correct paging protocol that was selected on the Global
Setting page. Since this example Shift was not selected. The system will use the pager ID in Shift 1 entry.
