8.7 Printer function
Under this menu point, the protocol printer connected to the Fire Alarm Control Panel (internal printer and/or
external serial printer) can be switched on or off. In addition, the contents of the internal event memory of the
control panel can be printed out on a local protocol printer.
The activation of other control panel printers in the essernet
®
network is impossible.
Internal protocol printer
The internal protocol printer is selected with a (max.) four-digit number. This number consists of the control
panel number (e.g. 1 to 31 in an essernet
®
network) and the number "01".
Example: panel number 01
Î Nr. of the internal protocol printer 0110
panel number 05 Î Nr. of the internal protocol printer 0510
External protocol printer
The external protocol printer is selected by the primary loop number of the interface micro module (RS 232/TTY
module) to which the printer is connected. The number of the interface module consists of the number of the
Fire Alarm Control Panel, the micro module board and the slot in which the RS232/TTY-Module is fitted in the
same way as the primary loop number.
Switching off the protocol printer
By the first activation of the menu options >Printer function<, the printer number is automatically allocated to the
internal protocol printer if installed. This allocation can be removed by pressing the >Zone< key.
