Quick Start ATP Configuration for EN50136 ATS

FlexC provides the following out of the box features that enable you to get FlexC up and running quickly:

  1. To quickly configure a FlexC connection between a panel and an RCT (for example, SPC Com XT), go to Communications > FlexC > FlexC ATS.

  2. Under Add EN50136-1 ATS, choose one of the following to display the ATP Configuration :

  3. Complete the fields on the ATP Configuration - EN50136 ATS page shown in the table below. At a minimum, you must complete the field RCT URL or IP Address to save. If you do not enter an SPT Account Code, you can commission the panel using the ATS Registration ID which is automatically generated when you save. The RCT operator must enter this ATS Registration ID, for example, in SPC Com XT.
  4. Click Save. The ATS Configuration page displays showing the ATS Registration ID and the configured primary ATP or primary and backup ATPs in the Event Sequence Table.
  5. On the ATS Configuration page, click Save to accept the default settings, for example, the Default Event Profile, the Default Command Profile (including the FlexC Command User Name and FlexC Command Password), and Auto Encryption with no password. To change the settings, see Configuring an EN50136-1 ATS or Custom ATS.
  6. Click Back. The ATS displays in the Configured ATS table.
Panel Identification

ATS Name

Enter the name of the ATS. If you do not enter a value, the ATS name defaults to ATS 1, ATS 2, and so on.
