ProSYS Installation and Programming Manual 15
Printer Module
A Printer module, designed to interface between the ProSYS's 4-wire Expansion BUS and a
Centronics-type parallel printer, enables the printing of all significant system events as they
occur, including access control activities, if applicable. Each event includes the date, time and
if applicable, the affected partition and the user involved.
Advanced Installation Tools
♦ Auto Installation: For quick and easy installation, the system performs automatic
installation of the modules connected to the BUS. The system searches for the
modules by automatically verifying their connection and operation through the BUS-
scanning feature and prompts the user to approve each module connection. The auto
installation feature is performed automatically after defaulting the system or can also
be performed manually.
♦ Self Monitoring
 The BUS Test enables the system to verify the connection and the operation of
the modules connected to the BUS by indicating the efficiency of each one on a
0-100% scale. Each result is individually displayed on the LCD keypad (or via
the Upload/Download software).
 A watchdog feature, which periodically and automatically performs a
comprehensive self-test and reports when operating faults are found.
 A Maintenance Mode which, when selected, performs an active self-check on
many of its components.
 One-man walk testing capabilities, enabling an Installer or technician to check
the operation of each contact and detector which, when tripped, produces
audible feedback and is visibly logged at the keypad from which the test was
initiated.
♦ System programming
 Local keypad keys
 Program Transfer Module: Used to store the programmed configuration of any
ProSYS without the need for power.
 Local/Remote Upload/Download software
False Alarm Reduction
In an effort to deter false alarms, the ProSYS provides various programmable features,
including the following programmable features: cross zoning, swinger shutdown,
audible/visual entry/exit delays, fire alarm verification, dialer delay before an alarm
transmission, cancel report option, double knock, soak test and exit termination zone.
