3.2 Selecting the Program Options in the D6500 MPU Program
Use the 6500:MPU Product Handler to program the D6500 Receiver. Program options allow the D6500 to send
reports to the automation system in D6500 or SIA message format. Below are the most common and
recommended selections for programming the 6500:MPU Handler when connecting the D6500 Receiver to an
automation system. Additional selections can be found in the D6500 Program Entry Guide.
Global Parameters
Receiver Number
(Receiver Number) selects a number (ØØ to 99) that will appear in the receiver LCD
display and print on the receiver's internal printer (40 Character Mode) for internally
generated messages. The Receiver number is included in every message to the
computer in both D6500 and SIA modes.
Armed Status
(Armed Status) (
Yes
or
No
) is normally set to

, the
arming status of the D4112 and D6112 panels is displayed with transmitted test
reports.
Auto Ack
(Auto Ack) (
Yes
or
No
) should be set to
Yes
when using a computer.
Yes
puts the
D6500 in "automatic" mode, allowing it to process signals without any operator
interaction. If this item is
No
the D6500 is in "MANUAL" mode, requiring two presses
of the SLNC button after each signal is received before the receiver will proceed to
the next message (one to silence the buzzer and one to clear the display). The
buzzer re-starts about 45 seconds after the SLNC button is pressed once (if the
display has not been cleared with a second press).
Buzz In Auto
(Buzz in Auto) (
Yes
or
No
) should be set to
Yes
when using a computer (see the

or

after the last message in the call. When

is set to No, no blank line
appears after the last message.

(Point/User Text) is normally set to
Yes
. When programmed

, the D6500 will
delete Point Text and user Text information from all output devices even if it is sent
from the control panel.

Yes
or

). Radionics recommends
