4. Operating WINMAG Lite

4.1 General
W INMAG Lite operates with a graphical user interface under the operating system s W indows 2003, W indows XP
Hom e or Professional and W indows Vista.
Operation is effected as usual for W INDOW S program s i.e. using keyboard and m ouse.
Restricted operation is also possible with a touch screen, with a standard keyboard or with specially configured
“sim ple” keyboards.
Thus, the processing of an alarm m essage can be effected using a sim ple keyboard. However, to perform
configuration of the system you need a m ouse or an appropriate pointing device.
Please refer to the help m enu of your W indows operating system for further details concerning operation.
General W INMAG Lite operating steps are described in the following.

4.2 General operating steps

W INMAG Lite has the usual W indows user interface so that operation is m ore or less the sam e as with other
W indows program s. Thus, you can very quickly get used to working with the program .

4.2.1 Using the mouse

Usually, the operation of W indows program s is effected with the help of a “mouse”, i.e. a pointing device that
positions the “cursor” on the screen analog to the m ovem ents of the m ouse. The form of the cursor can change
and thus indicate special functions.
In addition to positioning the cursor, the “mouse buttons” can also select various functions such as:
* Selection of a m enu function
* Selection of a button
* Selection of a sub-drawing
* Selection of a sym bol and the linked functions
* Selection of an item in a list/table
* Activation/deactivation of options
* Opening/closing of levels
* Viewing tables via scroll bars
Norm ally, selection is effected by positioning the cursor at the required position and by pressing the left mouse
button once. This procedure is nam ed "clicking”.
The right mouse button can be used for selecting special functions, these usually appear on the screen as a m enu.
W hen using sym bols, you can adapt the default functions of the left and right m ouse buttons as required. You can
assign the following functions to the m ouse buttons:
Double click of the m ouse button can also invoke other functions. In W INMAG Lite for instance, double click of
the left mouse button perm its you to go back in the graphics display by one level.
The m iddle button that som e m ice are provided with cannot be used with W INMAG Lite.
The “trackball” is a variant of the m ouse and m ust be handled in the sam e way as a m ouse.
The operation of a touch screen is m uch the sam e as that of a m ouse, special functions such as those offered by
the right m ouse button or the double click can be effected by way of screen buttons.
14 Operating instructions W INMAG Lite

4.2.2 Using the keyboard

Usually, the keyboard is used in com bination with the m ouse.
If text m ust be entered, this is usually done via the keyboard.
By activating the m ouse buttons (Settings/System control/Input help/Mouse, you can select a function in a sim ilar
way as when using the m ouse.
It is often the case, that dialog boxes are available so that it is possible to just activate the enter key to com plete a
dialog.
Direct functions can be selected via function keys and key com binations. Inform ation on com m on key com binations
is contained in the W indows help m enu under the keyword “keyboard shortcuts”.

7. Programming WINMAG Lite

7.1 General

W INMAG Lite is an open control software that can be greatly adapted to user requirem ents.
W INMAG Lite includes all the tools necessary to execute adaption.

The editing functions are subdivided into

‚ Internal editing functions
C System configuration (interface, networks, users, printer, rights...)
C Edit drawings (create im age structure, integrate icons and actions)
‚ External editing functions
C Create/revise drawings

User-adaption is executed via editing of the texts of the predefined m essages.

In order to configure, we recom m end attending a special briefing to acquire understanding of the system m ore
quickly.

7.1.1 Programming procedure

The configuration of a W INMAG Lite system is divided into the following steps:
1. W INMAG installation

2. Adapt data (edit)

• Create networks, objects, I/O points
• Integrate graphics
• Place icons
• Adapt system settings
• allocate predefined actions

3. Connect W INMAG Lite with periphery

W INMAG Lite is supplied factory-configured with descriptions of various central control units, networks and objects,
procedures and exam ples for creating your own configuration.
You can use these exam ples for your own configuration purposes or rem ove them from the system .

In any case W INMAG m ust be adapted to the objects connected. This m eans that the detectors and
alarm s/m essages to be edited m ust be defined and can be user-adapted (edit network configuration).
Operating instructions W INMAG Lite 67

W INMAG Lite system data is stored in a database. Thereby, relationships could exist between data that are
im portant for user-configuration. You should execute configuration changes in the sam e way as when building a
house i.e. hierarchical starting from the fundam ent.

First of all the networks should be configured, then the objects and then the I/O devices with types (as per structure).
Sym bols can only be defined after I/O devices have been defined. A sym bol is the graphical display of
an I/O device.
68 Operating instructions W INMAG Lite

7.1.2 Terms

Internal edit functions

Internal edit functions are integrated in W INMAG Lite and can be directly called by W INMAG Lite (user rights) via
m enus and buttons. Exam ples of such functions are the creating of objects or the placing of sym bols.

External edit functions

External edit functions are functions that cannot be directly called by W INMAG Lite, these functions m ust be
pre-extracted from other program s or from system control. Exam ples of such functions are the creating of graphics
or printer configuration under W indows.

Network
A network is a group of objects that are connected via a com m on interface/m edium . For exam ple, all control panels
connected to an IGIS-PC interface.

Object = control panel

Every device connected to a network is an object.
Exam ples of objects:
- Intrusion detection central units ...
- Fire detection com puters ..
- Fram e interfaces for fire detection com puters
- Operating and display unit ..
- IGIS V24 interface
- PC interfaces
Every object has a unique network address. Every m essage can be allocated to an object via this address.

I/O device
A I/O device describes a device who’s status can be m onitored e.g. the status of a zone or the status of a detector
group. A I/O device can have up to 8 states. I/O devices states can adopt defined function values.

I/O device status

Categorization of I/O devices into individual states, i.e. input states and output states.
Input = from object (central unit ) to PC = m onitor
Output = from PC to the central unit = control
A m axim um of 8 input states and a m axim um of 8 output states can be defined.

Function value:
Function values are values that individual I/O states can adopt.
Exam ple group 1 signal state 0
Function value 0: OK
Function value 1: triggered
Function value 2: not available
Operating instructions W INMAG Lite 69

I/O device type

The I/O device type is the general description of a I/O device to which several I/O devices (sam e type) can be
allocated. Thus, the description of individual I/O devices can be kept to a m inim um .
Exam ple: The I/O devices 101 to 199 of a control panel type 561-MB100 are of the type “intrusion group
MB 100/16/8". The I/O devices are of the sam e type and m ust only be described once.
Variations can be derived from one type of I/O device that differ by way of changed:
- texts for status and function values
- alarm types
- filter structure (ie. Som e function values and controls m ay be “filtered-out” by derived types)
A I/O device type and all types derived from it are known as an I/O device type fam ily.

Note: the number of netw orks that can be connected is limited!

A building (central control unit) in any one netw ork with a maxim um
of 500 I/O points and (additionally) several Visioprime video systems,
each with a further 500 I/O points, can be connected to the W INM AG
Lite .

Alarm reason / type

In W INMAG Lite you can allocate an alarm reason to every function value. A collection of alarm reasons form an
alarm type e.g. all fire alarm s of the type fire.
The alarm reason is used in the default triggering conditions for the start of program s.
The type of alarm appears as tab in the stack view via which alarm s of the sam e type can be separated.

I/O device list

The I/O device list for all IGIS capable com ponents is published by Novar on request. It includes the default I/O
device types. These types include all possible I/O devices, statuses and function values of the com ponents. This
list shows the data that can be received by each com ponent and the data that can be sent by each com ponent.

Symbol
A sym bol is the graphical display of a I/O device. Every status/function value com bination can be allocated to a layer.
As there is an exact function value for every status of a I/O device, as m any layers can be displayed as statuses
included in the I/O device type. The layers are drawn in the status
sequence and layered on top of each other. Thanks to transparent areas or optim ally-configured layers, all
attributes can be sim ultaneously displayed.
Detectors are found in drawings by way of sym bols - the proper functioning of the find function depends on the
correct positioning of sym bols.
Select a sym bol to display detector inform ation and execute control functions.
Operating instructions W INMAG Lite 71

Layer
One or m ore status/function value com binations can be allocated to a layer.
Every layer is drawn as independent im age.

7.1.3 Message structure

The m essages transm itted by the system are based on the I/O device schem a. Thus, an IGIS change m essage has
the following com ponents:
• Destination address
• Message type /alarm type
• IGIS address of the object (m essage address)
• I/O device num ber
• Status num ber
• Function value num ber
• Tim e
In W INMAG Lite texts are allocated to all num erical data. All texts included in the system can be edited and adapted
to user requirem ents.

7.2.2.3 Edit I/O device types

I/O device types contain inform ation of how a I/O device is configured. The following are allocated:
‚ The nam e of the state and function values
‚ A state/function value com bination corresponding to each alarm m essage that can be raised by the type
of detector - each of these will have a particular alarm reason associated with it
‚ A state-function value com bination corresponding to each control function that can be sent to an I/O
device of this type - each of these will have a set of user groups to which it belongs
A I/O device type m ust be allocated to every I/O device. Every sym bol definition is based on a I/O device type.
I/O devices types can have a hierarchy. If a new I/O device type has been derived from an existing I/O device type
by way of copying, the derived type becom es a “child” of the existing I/O device type.
The “parent” and all derived I/O device types together form a I/O device type fam ily.
W ithin a fam ily the “parent” defines the m axim um possibilities. The “children” always have a subset of the “parent”
inform ation.
As with sym bols, W INMAG Lite differentiates between system I/O device types and user-defined I/O device types.
The ID num ber of the system types is greater = 300000000, all user types are below this value.
Only system types are factory-defined.

You cannot change or delete system I/O device types. The button bar is equipped with a “View” button instead of
an “Edit” button. The “Delete” button is not active.

Select the “Edit I/O device types” button from the “System configuration” m enu bar to view, create, edit
or delete sym bols.

The “Select I/O device type” dialog box appears that includes a structured list of all I/O device types. Types that
include derivations are identified by a “+”. Only one item at a tim e can be opened.

Select an item by clicking once. The item selected is m arked.

To edit an item , select one of the active buttons.

Sorting of I/O device types is effected alphabetically within every

hierarchy.

A I/O device type com prises various “definitions” - records with

definition statem ents that each describe an alarm condition
including its function values, associated alarm reasons and user
group allocation.
Operating instructions W INMAG Lite 85

7.2.2.3.1 View system I/O device type

If you click the “View” button, a “read-only” “Edit I/O device type” dialog box is invoked.

This dialog box is “read-only” which m eans that all input fields are not active.
The dialog box includes the I/O device type with ID, nam e, priority and a structured list displaying the defined
conditions/controls.

‚ Inputs (alarm conditions) are identified by a green arrow.

‚ Outputs (control functions) are identified by a red arrow.

‚ Click the plus sym bol to display condition function values and control function user groups.

‚ Click the plus sym bol in front of a control function to display the user groups of the control function.

It is not possible to add or delete and function values of a system type.

The “View” dialog box is provided with a “Close” button with which you can close the dialog box. The “Edit” dialog
box does not have this button.
For m ore inform ation, please refer to the “Edit” dialog box.

7.2.2.3.2 Copy I/O device type

Click the “Copy” button to copy a selected I/O device type. The copy includes a new ID below that of system I/O
device type ID´s.
The nam e gets the prefix “copy of”.
Thus the I/O device type is a derived (“child”) type that will be included in the hierarchy structure of the “parent” I/O
device. If you copy a “child” I/O device it is entered into the sam e hierarchy level as the level of the I/O device that
you have copied. No other hierarchy level is created.
The copies of a system type can be edited or deleted by an authorized user. Position at the copied item in the system
list.

The “Edit graphic tree” option includes functions for the structuring of graphics and allocation of sym bols to graphics.
You can place, m ove, re-configure, delete and align sym bols and graphic references.

After you have called this option, the following (Edit graphics) toolbar appears:

7.2.3.1 General drawing edit mode

If you have not selected an option from the “Edit graphics toolbar”, the system operates in general graphics edit
m ode. You can edit all available graphical elem ents as well as the graphics backdrop.

To perm it you to edit a graphic in general edit m ode, the graphic to be edited m ust be visible on the screen
!
If you wish to edit a graphic object (sym bol, drawing reference), you m ust first select it !
A positioning box surrounds the selected objects.

Positioning box
A black positioning box surrounds the selected object. The box has 8 square handles with which you can change
the size of the object. If you rest the cursor over a handle, the cursor changes into an arrow that indicates the
direction in which you can resize the object.
The handles displayed at the corners of an object perm it you to resize (by dragging) the object. By dragging to the
opposite side/corner you can “flip” the object.
The handles displayed at the side of a selected object perm it you to resize (by dragging) the side lines and thus also
change the size of an object.

Selecting objects
You can select one or m ore objects. You can select an object by:
‚ Clicking the object (general edit m ode) using the left m ouse button
‚ You can select additional objects by keeping the “SHIFT” key pressed down whilst clicking on m ore
objects. All selected objects have a positioning box.
‚ Dragging a box around one or m ore objects. Define the size of the box by way of 2 diagonally opposed
points.
Define the first point by pressing the left m ouse button. A dotted box appears between the first “click”
point and the point at which the cursor is actually positioned. This dotted box appears when you keep
the m ouse button pressed. After you have released the m ouse button, all the objects within the box are
selected.

Click on the object again to “undo” the selection. If you have selected som e objects and you select other objects
without pressing the “SHIFT” key, you “undo” selection of the objects first selected.

som etim es displayed around the backdrop).

Select the drawing by clicking on it or enter the nam e of the drawing in the “File nam e” field. Click “Open”
to change the backdrop drawing to the one selected.

All objects included in the graphic are saved together with the background-related coordinates.
If you change the size of the drawing background, the position of the graphic elem ents will also be
changed.
If the position of an object is not within the backdrop, the object is placed in the m iddle of the m argin
so that at least half of the object is displayed. You can avoid this by m aking sure that the new drawing
has the sam e pixel size as the old drawing.

After you have clicked the “Insert graphic reference” button, the cursor changes and the “Graphic reference
cursor” appears whenever the m ouse cursor is m oved over the graphic window.

Now you can define a graphic reference by clicking at the required centre of the graphic reference box using the left
m ouse button. You have now created a graphic reference (default size).

Now you m ust select the “child” drawing via the “Select next graphic” dialog box:
All W INMAG drawings m ust be available in bit m ap form at and
m ay include any num ber of colors.
Drawings can be selected from any folder. The path to the file is
defined in the database. The drawings from the directory \ZEICH
do not need a path extension.
The file itself is not included in the database. You can overwrite it
at any tim e with a new version.
The dialog box allows you to display a preview of the drawing
together with the size param eters.
The check box “auto re-size backdrop to match window ”
defines the appearance of the backdrop within the graphic window.
If this check box is active, the drawing is stretched to com pletely
fill the current window available window. This m akes optim um use
of the window space but could lead to distortion. If this check box
is not active (default), the drawing is fitted (ratio-correct) into the
window. This could cause the displaying of white m argins
(depending on window size).

You m ust then select the colour from the color dialog box:
You can select a colour from the colours available by clicking the colour
desired or you can define your own colour by clicking the “Define custom
colour” option.
If you define the colour white (white is displayed as a transparent button),
the graphic reference flashes white and red. .
W ith all other colours, the graphic reference flashes red and the active
colour (Note: a red graphic reference does not seem to flash !)
After you have clicked “OK” the graphic reference is displayed in default
size and in the colour selected.
You can edit the size and the colour via the general edit functions - to do
this you m ust deactivate the “Insert graphic reference” button.
You can go to the newly inserted drawing via the “Display graphic” dialog
box (click of the right m ouse button) or by clicking on the graphic reference

• “Cut” to m ove sym bols or references to a new graphic
• “Copy” to copy sym bols or references.

You can change the backdrop for a graphic by double-clicking on the backdrop when in general edit m ode. Do not
execute the double click whilst the cursor is resting over a sym bol or drawing reference, otherwise you will goto
special edit functions of the graphic elem ent. You can also click with the right-m ouse button on the graphic in the
tree then select “Change backdrop”.
If sym bols are already positioned on the graphic, they are still displayed on the changed backdrop.
IMPORTANT to be observed when changing drawing size!! The position of a sym bol is saved in absolute
coordinates. If the resolution is changed, the sym bols will appear an another position in the window.
You can go to the newly inserted graphic via the tree, the “Display graphic” dialog box (click of the right m ouse
button) or by clicking on the graphic reference in test m ode.
Transparent boxes (white) are displayed shaded in edit m ode so that they can be easily seen and placed.

Detector tracing
In an alarm program , if a displayed graphic contains a reference to another graphic that contains a sym bol for the
I/O device that activated the program , then that graphic reference will flash between red and the colour of the graphic
reference. This continues right back though the tree structure and allows the location of a detector to be easily
traced.
- No flashing if a graphic reference is red
- Transparent graphic references flash between from red to white.

Video backdrop
In W INMAG Lite you can show live video in a window. A video window is displayed according to the settings m ade
in the video.ini file to the backdrop Video.bm p (pay attention to the spelling).
To display the video window your PC m ust be equipped accordingly (video input).
Only one video window can be displayed in W INMAG Lite.
W INMAG Lite can control m atrix switchers. In order to do this it m ust be possible to control the m atrix switchers from
the outside (usually via a serial interface).
Video control is executed via the usual I/O device system . You m ust create a I/O device list for the m atrix switcher
connected and you m ust install a driver for the connected video system .

7.2.3.3 Placing symbols

A sym bol is the graphical representation of an I/O device. Before you can place a sym bol, you m ust have
created the I/O device in the network configuration.
Before you are able to insert a sym bol you m ust create a graphic on which to place it.

First of all, you m ust display the graphic in which sym bols are to be placed. The graphic can be selected from the
tree or the “Display graphic” dialog box by clicking the right m ouse button.

7.2.3.3.1 Edit symbol dialog box

After you have clicked the “Insert sym bol” button the cursor changes shape and the “Sym bol cursor”
appears (a drawing background m ust be available).

The “Edit sym bol” dialog box appears to allow placem ent of I/O devices and sym bols.:
The dialog box consists of 2 windows:

‚ The left window shows a tree structure of the I/O devices. Here, you m ust select the I/O device to be
sym bolized. You can only select one I/O device.
‚ You then select a sym bol from the list of sym bols shown in the right window.
Generally, only appropriate sym bols are displayed i.e. those sym bols relating to the type of I/O device selected.
There are three options:
< I/O device type only offer sym bols that are of the sam e type as the I/O devices
< I/O device type fam ily display all sym bols whose type belongs to the fam ily of the I/O device
(derived I/O device types).
< All displays all available sym bols
‚ All sym bols are shown in the list in 32*32 pixel form at. This is also the default size when a sym bol is placed on
a graphic.
‚ The sym bol is shown together with the sym bol ID from the database and with the nam e of the sym bol . Click
the colum n header to sort the list. Click again to change between ascending/ descending sort.
The sym bol selected is shaded.
The structure of a sym bol is closely linked to the structure of the I/O device. If you put together sym bols and I/O
devices that do not m atch via the option “Display all sym bols”, you m ust ensure the structures m atch!
Operating instructions W INMAG Lite 95

‚ Check box “Auto-step to next”

If you activate the “Auto-step to next” check box then once you have placed a sym bol for an I/O device the next
I/O device in the tree is autom atically selected for placem ent. If the I/O device type rem ains the sam e, the
sym bol type last selected rem ains.
‚ Used in graphic(s) field
If the I/O device selected is already used in graphics, the nam es of these graphics are displayed.
‚ Close button
The “Edit sym bol” dialog box is closed.
You insert the sym bol by clicking on the sym bol in the “Edit sym bol” dialog and dragging it into the graphic window.
Alternatively you can select the sym bol required for the selected I/O device then click with the left-m ouse button in
the required location on the graphic. The sym bol is displayed in the default size currently set.
After you have selected a sym bol, you can m ove it by positioning the m ouse pointer in the m iddle of the sym bol and
dragging it into a new position using the left m ouse button.
As long as the positioning box is visible, you can change the position and size of the sym bol last positioned.
The edit dialog box does not close so you can im m ediately place another sym bol using the active settings.

7.2.3.3.2 Symbol configuration

Sym bols are com posed of layers of drawings. Each sym bol has a text label describing the drawing layer that is
displayed with a specific com bination of state and function values.

For exam ple:

Door sym bol for a group I/O device of the MB100:
Status 0 Function value 0 “OK” indicates closed door
Status 0 Function value 1 “ triggered” indicates open door
Alarm 1 Function value 1 “ON” display red highlight around door

Every m essage has an associated function value. Thus, when allocating a m essage to a function values, a drawing
should norm ally be available to be used as a sym bol.
If a sym bol should only be displayed under certain conditions (e.g. alarm text only when an alarm is triggered), then
you m ust only allocate a drawing for the status function value com binations required.
W hen designing sym bols you m ust ensure that layers are configured to m atch in the state sequence of the I/O
device definition. The layesr for higher state values are displayed on top of the layers for lower state values (i.e. a
layer drawing for state 7 will be displayed on top of the layer drawings for states 0-6 and m ay obscure them ) . If som e
parts of the layer drawings for lower states m ust shine through you m ust use the colour w hite (which is interpreted
as transparent when the sym bol is displayed).
All layer drawings m ust be saved as a .BMP file in the “Layer” directory.

The largest layer defines the size of the sym bol, the positioning fram e indicates the m axim um size.

A sym bol is defined in the database in 3 tables

‚ “Sym bols” Defines the nam es of sym bols and I/O device types for which a sym bol is
valid
‚ “Sym bol layer” Specifies the layer drawings to use for each state function value
‚ “Sym bol definitions” Links sym bols with sym bol layers, includes all layer item s fort every
sym bol
96 Operating instructions W INMAG Lite

7.2.3.3.3 Edit symbol configuration

If you cannot find a suitable sym bol, you can create other sym bols or edit existing sym bols.
Possibilities:
‚ Change the sym bol configuration in the “System configuration “ option “Edit sym bol”. Here you can copy
existing sym bols and edit them to your requirem ents. Here you can allocate layer drawings to state function
values.
‚ Editing / creating layer drawings in the layer directory (e.g. using “Paint”). Please note that layers are usually
not only used in one sym bol but in several sym bols. Thus, changing one layer drawing can also affect other
sym bols.
In the system configuration function “Edit sym bols” the sym bol can be previewed with all com binations of layer
drawings enabling you to check the design of your sym bols.

7.2.3.3.4 M ove and align sym bols

Sym bols and drawing references can be given com m on coordinates and size.
To use thes functions, you m ust select at least 2 elem ents. You can perform the m ulti-selection of elem ents by
dragging a fram e around the elem ents (whilst keeping the left m ouse button depressed) or by clicking the item s
required and keeping the “SHIFT” key depressed.
The last elem ent selected is of great significance. If the elem ents are selected via a box, the last elem ent cannot
be identified by the user. The decisive elem ent can be determ ined via selection (using pressed SHIFT key).

Detector with alarm :

The program is expanded with the following parts in the

event of an alarm :

- the sound file sounds\fire.wav

- the text m odule fire_alarm text.txt

- the text m odule fire_phone.txt

- buttons for printing, deactivating sound and

continuing on in the program

The signal m essage text can be individually adapted by editing the text files text\fire_alarm text.txt and
text\fire_phone.txt.

The desired sound file should be renam ed fire.wav if another acoustic signal sounds. The following program s and

8. File management
8.1 Data safeguarding
So as to be able to retrieve W INMAG data should computer problem s or editing errors occur we recom m end the
storing of user-specific data and configuration data on other m edia.

At the very least, you should have a copy of the m ost im portant files such as the database “W INMAG.m db” stored
in your PC.

It is also advisable to m ake a backup of data before perform ing extensive editing work.

The most important files containing user-specific data are:

‚ in the W INMAG m ain directory

• system database winm ag.m db
• the protocol database winm agpr.m db
• the configuration files igisdrv.ini, video.ini, winm ag.ini

‚ Program files included in the directory W INMAGEX

‚ Drawings contained in the directory ZEICH or GRAPHIC other directories
‚ Drawings contained in the directory ZEICH or other directories
‚ Log files in the directory PROT (in particular PROT.SEL)

As, generally, these files are too large to be stored on a disk, we recom m end the use of rem ovable m edia such as
CD, tapes, MO drives, rem ovable hard disks, network connection, ZIP drives, superdisk, etc.

Com pressing files:

Using an appropriate program , m any files can be com pressed and thus take up less space when they are copied.

The database file “W INMAG.MDB”: is an exception as this file is coded and thus cannot be properly com pressed.
