EVL4 & DSC 1832 Programming via IP?

[cjhrph]

Is it possible to use the EVL4 to program the DSC 1832 using the DLS 5 software over IP instead of using the phone line?

did you ever get this working?

Were you successful?

I don't think EVL4 is designed to program your DSC system. Alternatively, you can use PC-Link with DLS5 to program while using EVL4 to verify if it functions correctly. If you have some wires laying around and a USB->Serial adapter, you can make your own cable for PC-Link on the DSC1832/1864.

There are two versions of the Envisalink. The one we "end-users" buy does not do DLS. Here's a 2018 post from GrandWizard. http://forum.eyez-on.com/FORUM/viewtopi ... 2283#p8177

Unfortunately Envisalink 4 DLS is only available to professional Connect2Go dealers under contract. Eyezon customers do not have access it for software licensing reasons. You don't need DLS to program your DSC system.

Unfortunately DSC locking things down appears to be the problem rather than technology. I don't know if Honeywell is less restrictive, but I will certainly avoid buying/recommending DSC panels.
