Kidde Gemini II System
b. Pull all system wiring through the installed conduit
into the enclosure.
c. Mount the MCP Power Supply and PCB/Display
Assembly into the enclosure.
d. Move jumper W1000 (shown in Figure 7-2) from
the two right pins (2 and 3) to the two left pins
(1 and 2).
e. Connect AC Supply to the MCP, as described in
Paragraph 7-3.2.3. Close Circuit Breaker to supply
AC Power. If the MCP was previously "registered",
the only Trouble displayed should be "Battery Fault".
If the MCP was not previously "registered", the dis-
play will show an "Un-Registered Trouble" in addi-
tion to the "Battery Fault".
WARNING
!
"Registered" MCPs can activate suppression
agent discharge. Hence, care must be exercised
during the installation and configuration
process to ensure that suppression system
releasing devices are only connected when
specified in the instructions. Failure to follow
proper installation sequence can cause
accidental agent discharge which may result in
bodily injury, death or property damage.
f. If the MCP shows any other troubles, power it down
and make any necessary alterations to the device
hardware to remove any trouble/alarm events (e.g.,
fit any missing End-of-Line (EOL) Resistors). Then,
power up the MCP.
g. Use the MCP menu system to set the time and date
and if required, to change the MCP user password
as described in Paragraph 7-4.
h. Open AC circuit breaker (i.e., power down the
MCP).
i. Verify the integrity of the field wiring. Check for
grounds, shorts, opens, polarity and voltages.
j. Complete all required system wiring connections
(except for the Release Circuits and Data Commu-
nications) to screw terminals on the printed circuit
board using Paragraph 7-3.3 and the system in-
stallation drawings prepared by the supplier for the
specific installation.
k. Install the battery as described in Paragraph 7-3.2.2.
l. Connect the battery. (The MCP hardware is de-
signed so that the battery supply is physically iso-
lated. No power will be supplied from the battery to
the MCP at this time.)
m. Close the AC circuit breaker. The MCP will check
its battery. If the battery passes the check, the MCP
will connect the battery in circuit.
n. Enter the Configuration Parameters for the MCP
through the Menu System as described in Para-
graph 7-4.
o. Register the MCP. When leaving the menu, the
MCP should show "System status normal."
2. With all field devices except the Releasing Devices now
connected, continue with the following steps:
a. Test the functionality of each input type field de-
vice and its correct interaction with the MCP (De-
tectors, Waterflow, Supervisory, Manual Release
and Abort).
b. Test the operation of each output type device
(Sounders, Alarm Relay, Trouble Relay, and Pro-
grammable Relay).
3. If an Optional Relay Board is to be required, perform
the following steps:
a. Disconnect the battery and open AC circuit breaker
(i.e., power down MCP).
b. Mount the Optional Relay Board using the hard-
ware provided (see Appendix E for location).
c. Plug the connector into the 10-pin connector (J5,
see Appendix E).
d. Connect the field wiring to Optional Relay Board.
e. Connect the battery. Close the AC circuit breaker
(i.e., power up the MCP). The MCP should now
show an Optional Relay Board trouble.
f. Configure the Optional Relay Board. The MCP
should now show "System status normal."
g. Test the operation of each field device attached to
the Optional Relay Board (i.e., activation on trouble,
supervisory etc.).
h. If Remote Units are to be connected, perform steps
as described in Paragraph 7-3.2.5 and Paragraph
7-3.2.6 to install RHUs and RDUs respectively
i. Connect the RS-485 Data Communication cable
from the MCP to each RHU and RDU as described
in Paragraph 7-3.3.5. It is recommended that the
Remote units be connected one at a time and tested
thoroughly to verify proper communication before
the next unit is connected.
j. Subject the MCP to a Walk Test as described in
Chapter 4.
4. The system is now fully functional except for the Re-
lease Circuits. To connect the Release Circuits, per-
form the following steps:
a. Isolate the Release Output of the MCP via menus.
b. Disconnect battery and open AC circuit breaker (i.e.,
power down the MCP).
c. Connect the field wiring for the MCP Release
Outputs.
