6.1.4 SG-CPM5 Options: [3XX] - LCD Options
Option [301]: Brightness Control
Default (50)
This option controls the brightness of the LCD touchscreen. Valid entries are from 1 to 99, where 1 is the least bright and 99 is the brightest. In order to
avoid selecting a value that cannot be seen, Sur-Gard recommends using the Brightness/Tone menu.
6.1.5 SG-CPM5 Options: [4XX] - Automation Options
These sections are used to configure automation options. For Visual Verification (via the Advanced Output Protocol), the SG-Automation output fol-
lows the active SG-CPM5. This means that even if SG-Automation is in Manual mode, the SG-CPM5 continues to output signals for the Advanced
Output Protocol.
Option [401]: Automation Mode
Default Auto IP Fallback(4)
The TCP/IP connection is the primary output of automation alarms. Sockets appear and disappear as processes are terminated and initiated. After socket
loss, automation output is redirected to other connections. This option controls how output is redirected if a connection fails.
NOTE: The unit must be reset before parameter changes take effect.
Loop (0)
The active SG-CPM5 uses TCP/IP at start-up. The unit automatically loops between TCP/IP and serial if failure is detected. If neither TCP/IP nor serial
are present, the SG-CPM5 switches to Manual mode. In Manual mode, the standby SG-CPM5 only takes over if the active/manual SG-CPM5 fails or
is rebooted
Fallback (1)
If both outputs are present, the active SG-CPM5 uses TCP/IP until it fails then switches to serial. The SG-CPM5 does not switch back to TCP/IP mode
until a reset fallback command is received from the console. If neither TCP/IP nor serial are present, the SG-CPM5 switches to manual mode. In manual
mode, the standby SG-CPM5 only takes over if the active/manual SG-CPM5 fails or is rebooted.
All Mode (2)
The active SG-CPM5 always sends to all connected outputs. If at least one output replies with an ACK, the alarm is considered to be transmitted,
whether the other output acknowledged it or not. This setting is NOT recommended. If neither TCP/IP nor serial are present, the SG-CPM5 switches to
manual mode. In manual mode, the standby SG-CPM5 only takes over if the active/manual SG-CPM5 fails or is rebooted.
IP Fallback Mode (3)
At start-up, the primary SG-CPM5 sends through the TCP/IP output.
If the primary SG-CPM5 TCP/IP output fails, the secondary SG-CPM5 sends through the TCP/IP output.
If the secondary SG-CPM5 TCP/IP output fails, the primary SG-CPM5 sends through its serial output.
If the primary SG-CPM5 serial fails, the secondary SG-CPM5 sends through the serial output.
If neither TCP/IP nor serial are present, the SG-CPM5 switches to manual mode.
The SG-CPM5 does not switch back to TCP/IP mode until a reset fallback command is received from the console or the serial fails.
Automatic IP Fallback (4)
This mode is similar to Fallback except that when the TCP/IP connection is restored, the SG-CPM5 automatically returns to the TCP/IP output to send
events. This eliminates the need for a reset fallback command from the console.
Split Reporting Mode
Each CPM is responsible for all functions of the cards that it polls, monitoring of card status, and signal output (SG-Automation, Printer, SG-Advanced
Automation, options, commissioning/decommissioning). The two CPMs need to negotiate for power management.
When enabled, line cards are split by odd numbers to CPM1 and even to CPM2. For example, in a system that has five line cards (slots 1-5) then line
cards 1, 3, 5 are polled by CPM1, and line cards 2 and 4 are polled by CPM2. When the line cards being polled are not sequential, the even/odd rule still
applies. For example, if polling five line cards in slots 1, 2, 3, 7, and 8, then CPM 1 polls line cards 1, 3 and 7, and CPM 2 polls line cards 2 and 8.
In the case of failure of a CPM, the other CPM takes over polling and output of all signals for all line cards. When the CPM failure clears, the polling of
the cards automatically resumes the split reporting.
