Panel configuration
The panel will not output events via the printer port whilst in commissioning mode or while a laptop is connected to the panel via USB.
Navigate to Menu > Tools > Print > Setup-Printer and configure as follows.
Panel connections
Connect nimbusGo to the printer port on the panel via the 2m Adapter Lead and Advanced MxPro/BMS Panel Adapter.
Trigger an event to initialise the printer port. You will now see the panel LED on nimbusGo turn green, and "good" panel comms will be indicated in Nimbus Digital App.

If you are servicing a network with no BMS Interface, you should connect to each node you are testing with the nimbusGo device, as printer output from the network may be unreliable.
