The support of the FlexC protocol by MM8000/MK8000 systems has the following
restriction:
l The redundancy mechanism is not supported.
l Only the fixed key encryption method is supported (
AutoEncryption
is not
supported).
If you use the FlexC protocol, take note also of the following:
l You can reset fault events (like
Warning Fault
,
Hold Up Fault
, and
Detector
Fault
) only if the grade of the panel is set to
Unrestricted
or
Grade 2.
You can use the
Restore Alarm
command of the SPC configuration tool
instead.
2.2.1 Local SPC settings: technical notes
The SPC physical and logical configuration is first defined for the hardware unit set-
up using the SPC configuration tool (SPC Pro or the web-based tool) and then
ported to the Composer environment using an export file (SigNET X Configuration
File). The configuration instructions, which are relating to the SPC Pro interface,
are different for the FlexC and the EDP protocol.
The SPC configuration tool is a web application that works with an Internet
browser. The most common browser, Internet Explorer (IE), requires however a
special setting: in Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab, in the option list,
search for the Security options and enable Do not save encrypted pages to disk.
FlexC protocol configuration
1. Start the SPC configuration tool in Full Engineer mode.
2. Add an SPC panel.
3. Select the SPC panel and click Configure.
4. Select Communications > FlexC and click Add Single Path ATS (
Alarm
Transmission System
). Note the following parameters:
– SPT Account Code: ID of the panel.
– RCT ID: must match the NS8021 driver setting [➙ 21].
– RCT URL or IP Address: must match the IP address of the management
station.
– RCT TCP Port: must match the NS8021 driver setting [➙ 21].
5. Click the ATS you created and check the values of the following parameters in
the ATS Profiles section:
– Event Profile: must be Default Events (default value).
– Command Profile: must be Default Commands (default value).
6. Edit the ATP (
Alarm Transmission Path
) in the ATP list, then click Advanced
ATP Settings and configure the encryption mode in the Encryption section:
– Encryption Key Mode: must be Fixed Encryption.
– Encryption key: type the encryption key (64 hexadecimal digits are
required).
7. Select Panel Settings > System Settings > Timers and configure the following
parameters:
– Dialler delay: must be 0; otherwise a delay occurs before alarms are
transmitted to the management station.
