LCD Programming
• SELECT: Change the Auto/On/Off state of relay. Each relay is shown in turn, showing
the current state and allowing for it to be changed or the next relay to be displayed.
Press <Clear> to stop viewing the relay list.
• ALL AUTO: Change any relays that are forced on or off back to automatic mode.
3.3.8 Ports
This menu has the following options:
• Network: Allows for the setting of parameters related to the network. If the downloaded
database indicates that there is no network, the only option is Panel ID. The Network
Menu has the following options:
-- Panel ID: This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. Set the Network ID number.
This is between 1 and 254.
-- Reboot: Cause all panels on the network to do a Hard reboot, ie equivalent to
pressing the Hard Reboot button on the top of the main board. Each panel records
in the history the time it received the Network Reboot command.
-- Global Commands: Sends the selected key (acknowledge, signal silence, or
system reset) to all Control panels and annunciators on the Network. Each unit,
including the sending unit, responds as if that key has been pressed.
-- Verify: This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. Enable or disable Network
Verify reporting troubles. If disabled, the panel does not report a Network Verify
trouble (no common trouble sequence), but still displays the error information in the
Misc. Troubles. This should be left enabled.
-- Retry: Set the number of times to try to resend a message before giving up. If this
number of retries are attempted without success, the other panel or annunciator is
considered to be off-line. The default value is 8.
-- Baud: Set the communications baud rate for Com Port 1. This value may need to
be changed if the default rate (4800) does not allow for communications. Since
each installation is different, this value needs to be chosen by trial and error. If the
default rate does not work, chose the next slower rate. Continue this process until a
rate that works is chosen. The available baud rates are: 9600, 4800, 2400, 1200,
600 and 300. The recommended rates are: 4800, 2400, and 1200. Below is a table
documenting the maximum wire capacitance allowed on a single port connection.
• Port 3: These options are restricted to Privilege 2. The options available vary depending
upon the Port 3 setting in the database. This port can only be disabled from the database.
PC Connect
(MR2-8G Program): Allows for the configuration of the communications
to a GRID package. If more than one signal needs to be sent, new alarms take
precedence.
-- Baud: Set the communications baud rate. The available fixed baud rates are 9600,
4800, 2400, 1200, 600 and 300.
Baud Rate Maximum Capacitance
9600 100 nF
4800 220 nF
2400 470 nF
1200 680 nF
