3. Programming Program Change – Level One
44
 AFP-100/AFP-100E Instruction PN 51010:C1 02/06/2002
Program Change – Level One
When the correct password is entered, the control panel will enter ‘Level One’ program mode. In this 
mode, the trouble relay is activated and the System Trouble LED flashes and cannot be changed to 
steady and the panel sounder is off. The following display will appear:  
Clear
The Clear function is useful when the control panel is first installed, before autoprogramming. Pressing 
the 0 key clears all general system programming options described in "System Edit" on page 49, and all 
programmed addressable devices from the nonvolatile memory of the control panel. Before executing 
the Clear command, the display will prompt the user to press the 
ENTER
 key to verify the command 
before the system actually clears programming data.
Note: It is necessary to autoprogram the control panel after using the clear function.
Autoprogram
The first time the system is brought on-line, it must be autoprogrammed. Pressing the 1 key enters the 
Autoprogramming mode. The main purpose of autoprogramming is to allow the installer a fast and easy 
way to bring the system on-line as quickly as possible.
Note: Autoprogram is also the only way to add or delete devices.
Once Autoprogram is selected, the control panel automatically polls all devices installed/wired to the 
SLC. The control panel communicates with each individual addressable device and displays the type of 
device at each address location starting with detectors and then modules.
While autoprogramming the system, the control panel will display the following: 
Verification of each device address and type installed on the SLC may now occur. If information is 
correct, press the 
ENTER
 key to save the device in the program; if incorrect, press the left arrow key to 
delete the device. In addition, adjective and noun descriptors plus zone assignments may be added to the 
display field per device address. If the 
SYSTEM
 
RESET
 key is pressed at this time or the control panel is 
allowed to time-out after 10 minutes of inactivity, a “System Corrupted” message will appear. Be 
certain to step through all devices, using the 
ENTER
 or left arrow key.
The first time that autoprogramming is selected, all points installed on the SLC are identified. Default 
device type (monitor, smoke detector, control) and software zone assignments for each device are 
displayed. On any successive enabling of the autoprogram feature, the LCD display only displays the 
newly installed, deleted, or changed devices on the SLC.
Devices which match the program already in memory are not changed and are not shown to the 
operator. Devices which do not match the program (not the same address and/or type) are shown to the 
operator. Devices inadvertently set to the same address are identified and displayed on the screen.
