Section Six
Remote Peripherals
The AM2020/AFP1010 will support the installation of optional remote Video Display Terminals and printers.
The CRT Terminal
The CRT displays all system information. The CRT can also display system reports if printer reports are
redirected to the CRT during programming. The CRT is provided with a keyboard that can be used to program
the AM2020/AFP1010.
Local Applications
Since the system function/control keys (acknowledge, signal silence, and reset) on the CRT keyboard
are not key lock or password protected against unauthorized use, in order to comply with the UL listing
and the NFPA standards, the keyboard may not be connected to the CRT, with the following excep-
tions:
• during programming and maintenance of the system
• if the system is operated in compliance with the NFPA 72 Proprietary Protective Signaling System
configuration and the AM2020/AFP1010 panel is the Primary Supervising Station
• if the modem selection is enabled in System Programming
Refer to the TPI-232 Manual for additional CRT-2 options.
Receiving Unit Applications
If employed under NFPA 72 Proprietary Fire Alarm System (Receiving Unit) applications, the keyboard
cannot be removed or locked up. The keyboard must remain connected and operationally functional in
the system.
The Printer
The printer can be used to provide a permanent record of all system events. Alarms, troubles, and
acknowledgments are recorded as they occur in the system. In addition, the printer can be used to print out
status information and system reports.
