USING THE SOFTWARE
Launching the Software
Launch the 2X00PC software by double clicking on the desktop icon.
The initial launch window will appear (as shown on
the right). At the top of the window the software
will show that it is checking for any devices
connected to the PC or laptop.
After a brief period the main programmer screen will appear.
If a device has been detected this will be shown at the bottom of the main programmer screen with
a green square (see below). On this screen several programming options can be selected.
THE MAIN PROGRAMMER SCREEN
The main programmer screen shows several menu options at the top and two selectable windows
on the main screen; ‘settings’ and ‘apartments’. The default window is the ‘settings’ tab.

4212 PC SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING GUIDE
EN-UK - V.1.0 - 17/09/154212 PC Software Programming Guide
Before programming the 4212 digital panel the correct system
type must be selected from the top menu. To do this select
‘System’ from the top menu bar and then from the drop down
menu highlight and select ‘VX2200 Graphical Display’, (as shown
to the right).
Once the correct system type has been selected the ‘settings’ tab on the main programmer screen
will change appearance and include additional programming options. Three additional selectable
tabs will also appear; ‘logo’, ‘coded access’ and ‘proximity access’, as shown below.
SETTINGS WINDOW
In the top left corner of the ‘settings’window there are three editable text line fields. Line 1 Text field
will have ‘ENTER FLAT’ set as the default text that will first appear on the 4212 digital panel when
powered up. The other two text fields will be blank. All three text lines can be edited if required and
the text can be centred in the middle of the 4212 display by clicking on the justify button to the right
of the text field (as shown below).
Line 1, 2 and 3 Text Fields

4212 PC SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING GUIDE
4212 PC Software Programming Guide EN-UK - V.1.0 - 17/09/15
Just below the three text line fields is the screen switch time field,
as shown on the right. This is the time (in seconds) that the main
display will switch between the three lines of text (entered in the
text fields) and a display logo. The default time is set for 5 seconds
(setting range from 1 - 255 seconds max.).
Screen Switch Time
Lock Time
Below the screen switch time is the lock time field, as shown on
the right. This is the time (in seconds) that the relay on the 4212
digital panel will operate for. The default time is set for 5 seconds
(setting range from 1 - 255 seconds max.).
Speech Time
Below the lock time is the speech time field, as shown on the
right. This is the time (in seconds) that the speech conversation
time between the 4212 digital panel and intercom phone will
last for before automatically clearing down and ending the call.
The default time is set for 30 seconds (setting range from 30 - 255
seconds max.)
Master Code
Below the speech time is the master code field, as shown on the
right. This is the code used to access the programming features
when entering into the programming mode using the keypad on
the front of the 4212 digital panel when progamming the panel
manually. It is also the code used when uploading or downloading
data from the panel when using the PC programming software.
The default master code is set to ‘111111’ (6x1).
Admin Code
Below the master code is the admin code field, as shown on the
right. This code is used to allow users limited access to certain
programming features when programming the 4212 digital panel
manually (please also refer to technical programming document
‘66250203-EN’ for more information). The default admin code is
set to ‘222222’ (6x2).
Trade Code and Setup
Below the admin code is the trade code field
and the trade setup options, as shown to the
right. This allows the user to setup a trade code
(min 3 digits, max 6 digits) with start and end
times for the trade facility to work without the
need for a separate timeclock. The trade setup
functions are linked directly to the 4212 digital
panel’s relay. The start and end times can be set

10
4212 PC SOFTWARE PROGRAMMING GUIDE
EN-UK - V.1.0 - 17/09/154212 PC Software Programming Guide
with the ‘trade start’ and ‘trade end’ fields using the up/down
(▲▼)scroll buttons to the right hand side of the respective
fields, as shown on the right, (the time format is hours: minutes:
seconds). When the trade times are set the trade code will only
operate the panel’s relay within these times and will operate
the relay for the lock time duration, (e.g. if the ‘trade start’ is set
to 08:30:00 and the ‘trade end’ is set to 09:30:00 with a lock time
set for 10, then the trade code will be ‘active’ for one hour between
8:30am - 9:30am and operate the panel’s relay for 10 seconds).
Trade Features
Below the trade time fields are four trade setup buttons;
set trade start, set trade end, get trade start and get
trade end, as shown on the right.
The set trade start and end buttons allow the engineer to set and update the trade start and end
times that have been entered in the trade time fields (refer to example above). Pressing the set trade
start button and pressing the set trade end button a confirmation window will appear (shown below).
The get trade start and get trade end buttons allow the engineer to obtain the most recent trade
times that were set when the set trade start and set trade end buttons were last used (again refer to
example above). Pressing either of these buttons, the following confirmation windows will appear
(shown below) showing what start and end times were set.
▲▼ up/down scroll buttons
Setting Up a Trade button
The 4212 panel can also be programmed to allow the ‘X’ button to function as a trade button if a
trade code is not required. To enable this feature through the software the trade code field should
be left blank. The trade start and end times will still need to be entered and the correct time and
date (refer to page 13) set on the 4212 panel (it should be noted that the 4212 panel can only operate
with a trade code or trade button not both).
