Aguilera AE/SA Cx Configuration (CSV) File

To integrate an Aguilera AE/SA Cx fire panel into Desigo CC you must first prepare a textual configuration file in CSV (comma separated values) format that defines the data structure for the panel.

To do this, use Microsoft Excel or a text editor to edit the provided CSV template file described below. You can then use this file to import the configuration.

For reference information about the Modbus configuration CSV file, see CSV File for Modbus Device Import.

Aguilera AE/SA Cx Configuration Template File

The Aguilera AE/SA Cx CSV template file:

Modbus_template_4.0_Aguilera.csv

is deployed with the Aguilera AE/SA Cx extension installation and available at the following path:
[Installation Drive]:\[Installtion Folder]\GMSMainProject\profiles\ModbusDataTemplate\

Having pre-configured CSV files with offsets already defined for each object reduces the risk of reading wrong addresses from the management station. Also, having examples of function mapping already defined can be useful when adding new points and starting from an example of an existing point type included in the CSV file with functions defined.

This template file can be used to create custom configuration files by adding or removing sectors, zones, and sequences according to the specific configuration.

Additionally, since the device points are imported into Management View as a flat list, this CSV template also provides a pre-configured logical view that can be used for the configuration required on the field site.

As for the logical view, any CSV templates can be also modified to automatically create a user-defined view out of the import. This part is not provided from any templates because user views strictly depend on the customer’s requirements, but they can be easily added.
