If required, firmware can be updated using this menu item.
Firmware needs to be obtained from the factory and will
only be given to authorized service representatives.

5.6 Pressure settings tab
Refer to Appendix E for the menu structure of the Pressure
Settings tab
5.6.1 Start pressure
The value programmed determines at which pressure the
controller will initiate a start sequence. The controller will
start the pump when the measured pressure is equal to or
less than this setting.
5.6.2 Stop pressure
Should the controller be programmed for automatic
shutdown, the value programmed determines the system
pressure must reach before the controller will automatically
stop the fire pump motor in combination with the RPT
elapsing. If the system pressure does not exceed the
programmed Stop Pressure setpoint, the fire pump motor
will continue to run.
5.6.3 Low pressure alarm
A low pressure alarm point can be selected that will be
recorded in the controller’s history and displayed in the
notification area if enabled.
5.6.4 High pressure alarm
A high pressure alarm point can be selected that will be
recorded in the controller’s history and displayed in the
notification area if enabled.
5.6.5 Start above pressure
The value programmed determines at which pressure the
controller will initiate a start sequence. The controller will
start the pump when the pressure is equal to or greater
than this setting.
5.6.6 Pressure variance recording
A pressure setting may be selected, such that any change in
pressure greater than this setting, will record the pressure
fluctuation in the controller’s history.
5.6.7 Hourly pressure recording
The controller can be set such that it will record a pressure
reading every hour on the hour.
5.6.8 Low suction shutdown
The controller can be programmed to shutdown when a low
suction condition is present. If this is desired, the user will
select Enabled. There will also be a shutdown delay timer
built in (Range: 0-99 Seconds, Default: 0 seconds) along with
the selection of either a Manual or Automatic reset. If Manual
Reset is selected, the “Press to Reset All Conditions” in
the notification area must be activated to reset the alarm.
If Automatic Reset is selected (default reset mode), a delay
timer (Range: 0-99 Seconds, Default: 0 Seconds) must be
set. Once the input is closed, the controller will start the
Low Suction Delay timer. When the timer expires, if the input
for Low Suction is still closed, the controller will shutdown
the motor. When the input has cleared, the controller will
initiate the reset timer. After the reset timer has elapsed, the
controller will resume automatic operation. All timers will
be displayed in the notification area. Low Suction Shutdown
will have no affect on Local Starts, Remote Manual Starts, or
Emergency Starts.
ATTENTION
Nfpa 20 specifically prohibits the installation of any device
in the suction piping that will restrict starting or stopping of
the fire pump. Eaton assumes no liability when this function
is used.
