Using Another Db: Converting
There may be other databases…
Your Multi SA may have created more than one Multi db. Operators have the option of switching to
another Multi db.
To Use Another Multi Db
1. Start Admin (or View). The Logon window appears.
2. In the Central Database section, leave or switch the database (Access or SQL-Server) by
clicking its button.
3. Type the name of the Multi db that you need.
4. In the User ID box, type an account name that is in the Multi db selected in the previous
step.
5. In the Password box, type the password to the account input in step 4.
6. Click OK.

Take care when typing the name of a database in the Admin logon window.
Typing a name of a non-existent database starts the Admin database tool. See
Creating a
Multi Db,
below.
Default
Once you have set Admin to use a Multi central database (Multi db), the same Multi db is used
every time that you log on.
Converting a Multi database from SQL to Access
A SQL Server database can hold many more alarms than an MS-Access database. To convert a
SQL database to an Access format, Honeywell recommends removing alarm data from the SQL
database beforehand.
