Default configuration overview

Default configuration overview

This topic gives an overview of the default configuration that comes with a new SMB site.

Note: If you selected a "Controller Only" Configuration Template during the site creation, only a Controller item is added by default. All other items can be added manually.

---

If you selected the 'NZ AU Base Kit' Configuration Template when creating the site, the following default configuration is applied:

Item	Description
500 - Controller 1	A Controller item. You cannot delete this item from the configuration. Most sites will only require one Controller. The Controller acts as the head of the other configuration items, and is responsible for making access decisions and distributing firmware updates to the other hardware items.
501 - 8In Board 1	An input board. You may optionally delete this item. This board is connected to and powered by the Controller. The 8In Board comes with eight Inputs that can be individually configured. You cannot delete individual Inputs.
502 - 8In4Out Board 1	An input and output board. You may optionally delete this item, however, since it is used for monitoring mains power failure and low battery by default, you should configure the Inputs of another Board to monitor these if you delete this one. This board is connected to and powered by the Controller. The 8In4Out Board comes with eight Inputs and four Outputs that can be individually configured. You cannot delete individual Inputs or Outputs. By default, this 8In4Out Board does not use the 'Use Site Default' EOL Resistors setting. This is because the two power-monitored inputs (Battery Low and Mains Failure) require 4K7 Ohm Rs in order to function, and therefore are set this way by default.
508 - Permaconn Alarm Dialler	Found on the MONITORING tab after the Account Code is entered. Sites created with the 'NZ AU Base Kit' Configuration Template come with a Permaconn in the default configuration. You cannot delete this item from the configuration, but you can toggle it to be disabled.

If you selected the 'USA Base Kit' Configuration Template when creating the site, the following default configuration is applied:

Item	Description
500 - Controller 1	A Controller item. You cannot delete this item from the configuration. Most sites will only require one Controller. The Controller acts as the head of the other configuration items, and is responsible for making access decisions and distributing firmware updates to the other hardware items.
501 - 8In4Out Board 1	An input and output board. You may optionally delete this item, however, since it is used for monitoring mains power failure and low battery by default, you should configure the Inputs of another Board to monitor these if you delete this one. This board is connected to and powered by the Controller. The 8In4Out Board comes with eight Inputs and four Outputs that can be individually configured. You cannot delete individual Inputs or Outputs.
502 - 8In4Out Board 2	A second input and output board. You may optionally delete this item. This board is connected to and powered by the Controller. The 8In4Out Board comes with eight Inputs and four Outputs that can be individually configured. You cannot delete individual Inputs or Outputs.
511 - Alula Alarm Dialler	Found on the MONITORING tab after the Account Code is entered. Sites created with the 'USA Base Kit' Configuration Template come with an Alua in the default configuration. You cannot delete this item from the configuration, but you can toggle it to be disabled.
