 The control panel is only able to select the Wireless Module Type as either Radion or Inovonics.  Therefore only the Radion B810 or the Inovonics B820 can be connected to the SDI2 bus, but not both at the same time. Note: GV4 panel types must  use firmware version 2 and higher for compatibility with the Radion Wireless devices (all B-panels and New G Series panels are compatible with Radion). However, some existing applications may use Inovonics wireless transmitters with an ISW-D8125CW-V2 connected to the Zonex bus. Because the Inovonics ISW-D8125CW-V2 interfaces with the ZONEX bus and not the SDI2 bus, it can remain connected while adding the B810 Radion Receiver to the SDI2 bus and use Radion transmitters. NOTE:  Ensure that no points are added to the panel program that may already exist in the Inovonics ISW-D8125CW-V2.   ... View more

 When connected to the control panel with Remote Programming Software and viewing diagnostics, the field ‘Panel in Standby’ indicates ‘Yes’. This diagnostic display indicates that the standby button at the control panel has been pressed and held by a user. This cannot be changed by Remote Programming Software and requires an operator at the panel to press and hold the switch to resume normal operation. The standby switch is located in the lower right corner of the panel main board. After pressing and holding the switch for approximately 15seconds, the heartbeat LED will turn off momentarily as the panel reboots, and then resume a ½ second flash indicating normal operation.
