Account Name – Enter an appropriate name for the account.

Account Group – The group that this account belongs to. You can create new groups using the Account Group Maintenance feature.

Double Call – This indicates if you are connecting using the double call feature.


- SMS – Choose this option to enable DLS sessions over GSM/GPRS or to use SMS to initiate DLS sessions over Ethernet. Ensure that the module type used for this account is referenced in the brackets in the Connection Type field.

Enter the user name and password that you will use to connect to the panel via Connect24.
