With the introduction of the dual path communicator, also known as DIGI-DUAL, the Enforcer 64 and PCX 78 software has been upgraded from version 12 to version 12.5. The dual path communicator utilises an Ethernet connection and a GPRS/3G connection depending on the type of connection the SIM card has when the module tries to signal.

 

This software contains additional menus allowing programming both paths as well as full diagnostics.

 

Please note:The control panel now comes with the Up/download method defaulted to 'Cloud'. If the control panel is going to be used without a communications module connected to the cloud, this option should be changed to 'None' to prevent fault indications occurring on the system.
