6.4.3.2 TEXT PROGRAMMING WITH A PC
F3200 allows the text names for zones, relays, etc, to be entered from a PC using the F3200
printer port.
F3200 software V1.00 does not support this feature at all. Software V1.10 and V2.00 support
all the commands with the exception of the fault action text (F command). Software V2.01
onwards adds support for the F command. This feature is present in standard F3200
panels, networked F3200 panels, and the NDU. V2.07 adds the Tandem LCD password.
