1.0 Operation and Programming Concepts

1.1 Introduction

This chapter provides an overview of the MR-2100/2200’s (hereafter called the MR-2200) features and supported devices.

1.2 General Information

Warnings: Before Programming

1. All applicable codes and standards should be considered when programming the Control

Unit.

2. The Control Unit continues to monitor input circuits and devices and acts according to the current program settings if an alarm is received while it is being programmed.

3. Loading a new database erases the current database before loading the new database. If the new database is not loaded after the erasure, the panel will not operate.

4. The database internal revision number included must match the number required by the

MR2 program, otherwise a Database Mismatch trouble condition is generated. This condition disables the panel until a correct MR2 program is loaded.

5. The database must be completely loaded for it to be considered valid. The program keeps track if the last database load was valid/complete or not. An invalid database load disables the panel until a valid database load is done.

Downloadable Database

The panel uses a downloaded database for input circuit programming. This database includes the addressable devices on-line, and the Zone LEDs, Bells, Functions Relays and Control Modules activated by addressable devices. This database is created and downloaded from an IBM compatible computer using the Modul-R Human Interface (MHI) program. Refer to the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for instructions on downloading the database.

Note: All communications are stopped during the database load. This causes a trouble to be recorded by those units that are normally communicating with the panel.

1.3 Networks

General

The MR-2200 can be incorporated into a network including other MR-2900 panels and MR-2944 annunciators. Though up to 254 panels and annunciators can be supported by the network, such a network would probably be too large to properly maintain. The network can be setup for single building or multiple building operation.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

The basic layout of the network is a single loop (see Figure 1). Each panel and annunciator has a unique ID. There is no requirement that the IDs be sequential or that they start with 1. The master panel can be any fire panel in the network. The panels work in a peer-to-peer fashion. This means that each panel is responsible for the programming of the inputs connected to it. The master panel does not control the network, but it is the central location for network information. Information is exchanged over the network via two basic means: a) specific frames, which are from one panel to another, and b) broadcast frames, which are from one panel to all others.

Notes:

1. For correct operation of the network, all panels and annunciators need to be loaded with the same version of operating programs and with the same database. If changes are made to the database, it is necessary that ALL panels and annunciators be reloaded.

2. When panels and annunciators are first installed, the panel ID must be entered into it before loading the database.

The special functions of master panel are: a) synchronize the clocks on the network by broadcasting the date and time at 3:30am every day; this means that only the master panel of a network requires that its clock be calibrated; b) maintain a network alarm list that includes all alarms, supervisory and trouble conditions induced on any panel on the network; c) transmit all signals from the network to a monitoring location.

Feature Operation

The following are the various types of frames that are sent on the network.

Commands & Restores

These specific frames are sent when a device in alarm requires operation of outputs at another unit. These commands are for the bells, relays, control modules, device messages and LEDs.

When the device itself restores, the restore commands are sent right away so that the other panels know that they can be reset. Anything operated stays latched until the Reset key is pressed.

Hotkey and Hotkey LED Operation

If a unit has its hotkey routing set for specific panels only, it sends Acknowledge, Reset, Signal

Silence and Second Stage Inhibit to these panels as specific frames. If hotkey routing is Global in the database, these are sent as broadcast frames.

If a panel’s function keys are sent to other panels, those panels send commands to the panel to have it turn on and off the hot key LEDs. This is so that there is indication that the key function has become available. This causes the LEDs to continue flashing after the key is pressed until the frame is received to turn off the LED.

Time/Date Change

This broadcast frame is sent by a panel or annunciator if the time or date is changed. The master panel also sends both a date and time change frame at 3:30am every day to synchronize all the clocks in the network.

Manual Switch Operation

If the state of any of the 16 software switches is changed manually at any panel, this change is broadcast to all other panels. The software switches are a system resource.

Network Reboot

If a Network Reboot command is initiated at a panel, it is broadcast normally and then the panel reboots itself. Upon receiving the Network Reboot command, a panel passes the command on to the next panel and then reboots itself. This has the affect of causing all the panels to reboot simultaneously.

2

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Network Verify

Network Verify is an active process in which each panel and annunciator checks to make sure that all other panels can communicate with it. This requires that ALL PANELS in the network have same operating software and database.

Each panel sends out a Network Verify frame which is then passed around the network loop.

When the frame returns to its originating panel, it is checked to ensure it passed through the correct number of panels. Also, each panel checks the Network Verify frames from other panels to ensure that they are correct. Any errors and mismatches are identified.

Network Communications

Information is sent across the network in frames. In addition to the operator generated frames described above, alarm, supervisory, and trouble frames are sent across the network whenever a device or panel indicates a problem . There are two types of frames: specific and broadcast. Specific frames are sent from one unit to another. Broadcast frames are sent from one unit to all others.

Specific Frames

Specific frames deal with information generated at one panel and required at another. This type of frame is passed from panel to panel until it reaches its destination. Each panel has a list as to which port to send frames from to reach all other panels through the fewest number of panels.

Since networks generally have all communications links running at the same baud rate, this is generally the shortest time as well.

If there is a break in the communications (see Figure 2 ), the panel that cannot pass the message on sends it back the way it came. This causes the frame to go the long way around the network. If there are two breaks in the network loop, the frame is again reversed at the second break. When the originating panel receives it after the second turn around, the originating panel realizes there is a major fault in the network and considers the frame to be orphaned and destroys it. This generates a Network Reboot Required trouble. This is passed on to all other panels (or at least as many as can be reached). The reason the orphan frame is destroyed is to prevent unexpected operation when the network is finally repaired, such as a panel starts ringing its bells because of an alarm from the previous day.

Figure 2: Single Network Break

Broadcast Frames

Broadcast frames deal with information that affects the entire network. When a broadcast frame is created by a panel or annunciator, it is sent out both network communications ports. Each unit in turn receives the broadcast in one port, act upon it and pass it on out the other port. Upon reaching the unit that generated the broadcast frame, that unit then disposes of it. This means that under normal circumstances, all units receive a broadcast twice and act upon it twice.

If there is break in a communications link (see Figure 2) the broadcast is disposed of by the unit unable to pass it on. In the situation where a unit has been removed from the loop (see Figure 3), the broadcast is passed only from com2 to com1 at the jump. In Figure 3, panel 5 passes the

3

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual broadcast to panel 3, but panel 3 will not pass the broadcast on to panel 5 since it is supposed to be communicating to panel 4.

The MRI-M500S control module can be used to control a supervised output, such as a bell or strobe circuit. The control module monitors the circuit wiring and troubles will be reported. The module will require a separate 24 VDC supply for the controlled circuit. When programming the database in MHI, be sure to program the control module correctly. Choose any “Control ( str )” other than “Control (relay)” for the MRI-M500S module. The MR-2400 will not operate a control module if the supervised circuit is shorted. Also there are options in MHI that affect the MRI-M500S control module but not the MRI-M500R relay module.

The MRI-M500R relay provides two Form C relays. Choose “Control (relay)” for the MRI-M500R module. There are options in MHI that affect the MRI-M500R relay module that do not affect the

MRI-M500S control module.

The MRI-M500X isolator module is used to prevent wiring faults from affecting the entire circuit. It divides the addressable circuit into sections. The isolator has separate IN and OUT wiring. A short on one side of the isolator is not seen on or affects the other side. Isolator modules do not use addresses. The isolator relies on a voltage threshold to determine whether it should be isolating or not. This voltage threshold is around 6.5V. All isolators in a system are in isolated mode on system power up. If there is an excess of current draw, the isolator will not close. When the short is removed, the isolator module automatically closes the circuit again. The LED on the isolator module turns on when the module is in isolated mode, otherwise it flashes periodically. System

Sensor recommends no more than 25 devices between isolator modules since the inrush current of the devices may mimic a short condition preventing the isolator from closing. MRI-3251 detectors have an inrush current of up to 10 times that of other devices, thus only two can be placed between isolators.

The sensors all use bases for mounting. Besides the standard plain bases, there are also relay bases, isolator bases and a sounder base. The available bases are:

MRI-B501

MRI-B501B

MRI-B210LP

Flangeless base for all sensors

Flanged base for MRI-x551 sensors

Relay base for MRI-x551 sensors

MRI-B224RB Relay base for MRx251 sensors, low profile

The sensor LED activates the relay and sounder bases. When this LED stays on for more than 10 seconds, the base activates. This requires that the MR-2200 have the LED mode set to FLASH/

ON. This is done through the LCD Menu by choosing PROGRAM/ADDRESSABLE/LED MODE/

FLASH. The MR-2200 only turns on the LEDs of up to 5 devices per addressable circuit to prevent excess current flow. While the panel continues to respond to further alarms from the circuit, the panel does not turn on additional LEDs. The MRI-B501BH sounder base requires a separate 24

VDC supply for operation. If the polarity of this supply is reversed for more than 10 seconds, the sounder base activates.

Isolator bases function the same as isolator modules. The sensor plugged into the base is connected to the IN wiring to the base. The isolator is between the sensor and the OUT wiring.

While both sensors and modules have rotary dials that allow for addresses from 00 to 99, modules add 100 internally to the address programmed, thus using the address range 100 to 199. Since sensors and modules come from the factory addressed as 00, we do not allow that address to be used for an installed device. Address 0 is used for indication of wiring faults on the addressable circuit.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Device Faults

The following troubles (with condition code letter) can be reported by or for addressable devices:

• Missing (M): A device listed in the database is not reporting back when polled by the panel. For a new installation, this is generally indicative of devices that have been misaddressed. This error can also occur if there are any wiring faults.

• Illegal (I): A device is reporting in on an address that the database shows as unused. For a new installation, this is generally indicative of devices that have been mis-addressed.

For illegal sensors, since there is no programming available, if an alarm condition is detected, the MR-2200 operates all its bell circuits. In a network system, only the local panel activates its bells. The MR-2200 always ignores illegal modules.

• Wrong Type (U): This occurs if the device is not the type expected for the address. For example, the database lists an address to have a ion smoke detector, but a photo smoke detector has reported for the address. This error is also used if the panel cannot determine the type of the device. If the device goes into alarm, the panel operates normally.

• Trouble (T): Sensors: The device is defective and needs to be replaced.

Modules: The extended circuit from the module has a wiring fault. Note: Control modules that supervise their output circuits are not operated if the output circuit is shorted.

• Duplicate (D): This means that two devices are using the same address. The MR-

2200HS-3200 does a check every hour for duplicate devices. If either device goes into alarm, the panel operates normally. Note: Due to the method used to detect duplicate devices, it is possible for a single device to appear as duplicate devices. Generally, the device needs to be replaced.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

1.5 Resetting 4-Wire Detectors

General

4-wire detectors can be reset by using one of the function relays on the panel. The relay is not programmed for any use, that is, it is unassigned. The next requirement is that a non-zero duration be programmed for it (see Section 2.5.1). A duration of zero disables this function. Once this is done, wire the power for the device as shown in Figure 4. A third party power supply (must be UL/

ULC-listed compatible power supply suitable for fire applications) can be used instead of the Aux

Power as shown. Whenever the System Reset operator key is pressed when neither LED is flashing, causes the relay to operate for the duration programmed.

2.0 Editing MHINP Databases

2.1 Introduction

This chapter describes the windows used to program the system.

2.2 General Comments

Overview

The editing of a system is done through a series of input windows. Editing starts with the System

Level and progresses to the Panel Level, then to the Input Level, and finally to the Relate Level.

The Main Menu and option speed keys are not available while editing/viewing the system. While editing is being done, the word OPEN is displayed in the Status Bar. This is to remind the user that the system database is open and that the computer should not be turned off. If the computer is turned off while the database is open, it may become corrupted.

If the current database has been previously verified and you select Edit, a requester is displayed confirming your request to edit the database. If No is chosen, then the database is displayed in

View mode. Editing the database changes the database to a non-verified state and changes the

Last Edit Date.

Prior to an editing session, the database is automatically backed up. This back up copy has the same name as the original database, but incorporates a .BAK extension. If a database becomes corrupted, delete it and rename its .BAK backup file to have a .DBA extension. This restores the database to the state prior to the last editing session.

Note: When upgrading from a version 17 (or earlier) system, a number of items that were programmed at the panel are now included in the database. See the file UPDATE.TXT for a complete description of these changes. Follow these instructions to obtain the required information before upgrading your firmware to version 18 or higher:

1. Connect your computer to the panel and open the Terminal window.

2. Select the Printer screen in the Terminal: press 14<Tab>.

3. You should note that the title bar of the Terminal window displays the text "File logging in progress...". If this does not appear, press the button Log On.

4. In the terminal window, type the following command: 99?

5. The panel's configuration settings are listed in the Terminal window and it is also saved in the file: LOG_CONT.TXT, located in your program directory. (This filename is programmable in Version 18 or higher.)

6. Close the Terminal window.

7. You may now view the contents of the file using any standard word processor or the

NOTEPAD program supplied with Windows.

Network-Capable Panel Types MHIThe following panels can be used in a network configuration.

• MR-2200HS-3200 Fire Panel: The MR-2200 has two (Class A or B) SLCs and two

(expandable to eight) NACs. The NACs can be programmed to be used as either bells or strobe type circuits. The MR-2614 Annunciator can be attached to the MR-2200 panel. It is considered an extension of the panel by MHI and does not change how the panel interfaces with other annunciators.

• MR-2900 (mb2931) Fire Panel: This is an MR-2900 Control Panel using the MR-2931 motherboard. This panel accepts all input circuit modules and has four Class A or eight

Class B power-reversing output circuits. These output circuits can be programmed to be used as either bells or releaser type circuits. This is the standard board for the MR-2900.

These panels can be used in a network configuration.

• MR-2944 Annunciator: It includes the memory required to have a database loaded into it.

This allows for less information to be sent on the network. An optional 4x20 LCD can be

9

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual included. This annunciator has two communications ports. This allows the annunciator to reside in the network loop. It uses the MR-2910 Network Board.

2.3 System Window

Description

The System Window (see Figure 5 ) allows editing of all system level options, as well as detailing other system wide information.

The Title Bar of the window shows whether editing or viewing of the database is being preformed and the name of the current database.

Figure 5: Modul-R System Window

The text in the top left corner provides information about the database. The top line gives the date and time the database was last edited. The next line states whether the current contents have been verified or not; and whether the database has been compressed or not.

The options Bell System, Subsequent Alarm, Resound, Evac and Waterflow all affect how the notification appliance circuits (NAC), hereafter referred to as bells, react to alarm conditions.

Bell System

Bell System is a drop down list for selecting how the bells and strobes will operate. This sets the base operation for the entire network. If coded bells are required, the bell codes are defined for each input individually. The following options are available:

• Alert: A First Stage alarm activates the selected bells in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or Second Stage Inhibit Hot Key is not pressed before the NAC timeout, the panel will progress to Second Stage. Second stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

• Evac: A First Stage alarm will activate selected bells in Evacuation mode. Second Stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode. There is no timeout from First to Second Stage.

• Alert/Evac: A First Stage alarm activates the selected bells in Evacuation mode and all other bells on the panel in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or Second Stage Inhibit Hot

Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the system will progress to Second Stage.

Second Stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

• Staged: The 1st alarm will activate selected bells in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or

Second Stage Inhibit Hot Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the selected bells are switched to Evacuation mode and the next bells, i.e. the ones with the next higher

11

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual number, are activated in Alert mode. This sequence is repeated until all bells are in

Evacuation mode. When the highest numbered bell circuit switches to Evacuation mode, all bell and strobe circuits on the panel will be turned on in Evacuation mode. For example, if the alarm activates Bells 1 and 4, after the NAK timeout, Bells 1 and 4 are switched to

Evacuation mode and Bells 2 and 5 are set to Alert mode. A 2nd alarm will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

Notes:

1. Bells must be assigned consecutive bells circuits with no Releasers assigned in between Bells. For example: circuits 1, 2, 3, 4 can be assigned as Bells but not circuits 1, 2, 4, 5 with circuit 3 a Releaser.

2. Control modules cannot be programmed as bell or strobe if the Staged Bell system is used.

Subsequent Alarm

Subsequent Alarm controls how Alert, Evac and Alert/Evac type bell systems behave when a new alarm is received while one is still active. 1st Stage has the panel repeat the First Stage operation.

2nd Stage has the panel go immediately to Second Stage operation.

Resound

Resound controls how the panel handles the automatic resounding of silence bells when a new alarm is received. There are two modes:

• Local: Each panel resounds only its own silenced bells when a new alarm is received.

This would be used when panels in a network are in different buildings, such as a campus.

• Global: All panels in a network resound silenced bells when a new alarm condition is received on any panel in the network. This is used when the panels are all in the same building, such as a large plant.

Evac

Evac controls whether the bell system Evacuation Mode sounds Steady (continuously) or uses a

Temporal pattern as specified in ANSI S3.41 and ISO 8201 Audible Emergency Evacuation Signal .

The pattern used ½s On, ½s Off, ½s On, ½s Off, ½s On, 1½s Off repeated.

Waterflow

Waterflow controls if bells can be silenced if they are started by a waterflow type input. If Non-

Silenceable is chosen, bell circuits activated due to a waterflow input cannot be silenced until the waterflow device has restored.

Language

Language chooses English (default), French or Hungarian characters to be used in messages.

See Appendix C Languages of the Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor for a description of the letters supported and the method of entering them.

12

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Alarm List Sequence

Alarm List Sequence controls which end of the Alarm List is shown automatically. If First is chosen, the first (oldest) item in the alarm list is shown. If Last is chosen, the last (newest) item in the alarm list is shown. Regardless of order, alarms always take precedence in being shown. Another way to think of it is that First shows where the fire started while Last shows where the fire has gotten to.

Disconnects

Disconnects controls which panels the Signal Disconnect, Relay Disconnect, Releaser Disconnect and Common Disconnect hot keys affect.

• Local: The Disconnect hot keys affect only the panel they are on.

• Global: The Disconnect hot keys affect all the panels in the network. This means that if any Disconnect key is pressed on a panel, all other panels in the system take on the state of that Disconnect, either on or off.

System Message

The System Message is a text entry box for defining a message that is 3 lines by 20 characters that is used to identify the system. This message is printed at the top of printouts and shown on some service terminal screens, but it is not used in any LCD except in STATUS/IDENTIFICATION.

System Banner

The System Banner is a 20 character message that is used as a banner for the Main Menu of the

LCD. The default banner is “Modul-R by Secutron”.

Enforce Local LED Rules

The Enforce Local LED Rules check box forces an LED on an input's panel be related. Normally an LED anywhere in the system is all that is required. Note: The common LEDs of any panel are based upon the zone LEDs that are displayed by the panel, not based upon the inputs to the panel.

Enforce Group Association

The Enforce Group Association checking check box enables MHI to check to see if a group association has been included in the relates of inputs.

Observe Daylight Savings Time

The Observe Daylight Savings Time check box enables or disables the automatic changing of the clock for Daylight Savings Time. If enable, the system moves 1 hour ahead the first Sunday of

April and fall back 1 hour the last Sunday of October (North American dates).

Pre-Alarm Buzzer

The Pre-Alarm Buzzer, when enabled, will cause a tone to sound when an addressable device is in alarm during the Retard period. The tone is a triple beep repeated every second.

Master ID

Master ID defines which panel in a network acts as the Master panel. Only control panels may be chosen as the Master panel. The Master panel retains an alarm list for the entire network and synchronizes the date and time on all panels and annunciators at 3:30am everyday. (The alarm list functionality is programmable for several modes of operation. See below for more detail.)

13

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Alarm List Mode

Alarm List Mode sets the way the Alarm List messages are displayed on fire panels in the system.

Annunciators always receive messages as marked in the database. There are three modes of displaying messages:

• Local: Each fire panel shows only Alarm List entries that are for that panel only.

• Global: Each fire panel shows Alarm List entries for itself and all other panels and annunciators.

• Master: The master fire panel shows the Alarm List entries for all panels and annunciators while all other fire panels show only their own Alarm List entries.

Common Relays

Common Relays controls what signals affect the common alarm, common supervisory and common trouble relays of each panel. The are two settings:

• Local: The common relays of a panel follow the events of events on that panel only.

• follow Alarm List Mode: The common relays of a panel react to both events of the panel and any events listed in its Alarm List.

Pushbuttons

The System Window has the following push buttons on the right hand side:

• Exit: Closes the System Window and, if editing, causes the database to be saved. After an edit session, a requester asks if the database should be Verified. A database has to verify without errors before it can be downloaded.

• Panels: Displays the Panel Window. If no panel is currently defined, the Add Panel Box

(see page 19) is displayed.

• Switches: Displays the Switches Window. This window determines which devices are attached to the switches and the timers associated to each switch. See section 2.3

Switches Window.

• Groups: Displays the Groups Window. This window is used to define groups of relates.

See section 2.4 Groups Window.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 of the Modul-R Human

Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

• Settings: Defines the Verify warnings to disable and/or errors to reduce to warnings for the current database. Not all warnings/errors can be disabled/reduced. The use of this is not recommended, but provided for special circumstances.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

2.4 Switches Window

Overview

The Switches Window (see Figure 6 ) allows for the setting of the On/Off (Day/Night) switches.

There are 16 system wide switches available. All panels in the network keep track of their portion of the devices related to each switch. Relays, LEDs and control modules follow the On/Off state of the switch they are related to. Addressable sensors use Day sensitivity while the switch is on and

Night sensitivity while the switch is off. The timers can be used to have the switch change state at set times each day. Switches can be operated manually at the panel whether they have timers or not. If the Switch is associated to a Hot Key, the Hot Key then operates the switches, causing the related LEDs, relays and control modules to react. Changing a switch manually at one panel causes all panels in the network to change switch state.

Figure 6: Switches Window

Notes:

1. Addressable detectors can only be related to a single switch each.

2. Relays, LEDs and control modules controlled by more than one switch stay on as long as any switch operating them is on.

The title bar of the window always lists the currently highlighted switch.

Switches Table

The Switches Table shows all 16 possible switches and highlights the current one. Select any one to make it the current switch. List entries show the message RELATES FOUND for switches that have related devices.

HH:MM (Timer)

The HH:MM (Timer) entries control the times that the switch changes state. An even number of times must be entered, ie. each on must have a corresponding off. All times are entered using 24 hour notation, e.g.: one minute after midnight=0:01, noon=12:00, 3 PM=15:00, 4 AM=4:00, etc. A time of 0:00 is considered as not used. If an action at midnight is desired set the time to 0:01, one minute after midnight; or 23:59, a minute before midnight. MHI sorts the times into ascending order after the Switches Window is closed.

15

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Start Mode - On

The Start Mode - On check box determines if the first time listed should turn the switch On or Off. If it is not checked, the first time turns the switch off. If it is checked, the first time turns the switch on.

The on and off indication beside each time entry changes to reflect what each time in the sorted list does.

Use Switch as Custom Hot Key

Use switch as Custom Hot Key allows the switch to be manually controlled by the Hot Keys. A hot key can be assigned to turn the switch on and another to turn it off. These keys are marked as HK in the Switches Table.

Description

Description is a 20 character message that describes the Switch usage. This is useful in that the switch now has a description of its usage that is easier to understand when assigning Switches to

Hot Keys.

Pushbuttons

There are five push buttons on the right side:

• Exit: Close the Switches Window and return to the System Window. If there are any invalid times entered (ie greater than 23:59), MHI requests corrections.

• Reset: This removes all relates and all times for the currently highlighted switch.

• Relate: Shows the Relate Window. Items marked *on* are operated/controlled by the switch.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 of the Modul-R Human

Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

2.5 Groups Window

Overview

The Groups Window (see Figure 7 ) is used for creating and editing the Groups of relates. The

Title Bar shows the current group.

This dialog allows you to setup "Groups" which are composed of a text description/message and relates. Groups are a method of establishing zone representations. A zone representation may include a message and/or a group of Relates. Inputs (ie. circuits and/or devices) may relate to a

Group or number of Groups and thus acquire all Relates that are referenced by them. Inputs can also separately adopt the Group message. Making a change to a Group affects all inputs (circuits and devices) related to the Group. This is a very powerful feature that can significantly speed up the creation of medium to large size systems as well as simplify changes. Forethought should be placed in defining appropriate Groups. Up to 250 groups may be defined.

Figure 7: Groups Window

The use of Groups greatly simplifies the changes made to a database as changes are needed by the system. For example, if new door is installed that has to be unlocked during a fire alarm, the control module that unlocks the door is simply added a Group. This single change is then automatically picked up by any inputs that are related to the Group. Since this number could be hundreds, the use of the Groups makes databases easier to maintain and decreases the likelihood of mistakes when items are added.

Note: Though any relationship can be selected for inclusion into a group, an input that references the group must be able to accommodate the group’s relates. It may be advantageous to separate groups in these cases.

Group List

The Group List shows all the defined groups along with their message (if any) and if there are any relates defined for the group. The current group is highlighted. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another group.

Message Description

The Message/Description is used to enter a message for the group. This set of text-boxes allows you to enter a message describing the Group. You are allowed space for 3 lines by 20 characters.

If desired, this message may be adopted by a circuit or device by checking the Use Grp Msg check-box and specifying this Group ID. This is a powerful feature if you are defining a large number of inputs that require the same message.

17

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Pushbuttons

The following push buttons are defined:

• Exit: Close the Groups Window and return to the previous window.

• Add Group: This defines a new group ID. The new group can have any number between

1 and 250. By default, the number is the next one available. There is no need for the groups to be sequentially numbered or to start at 1.

• Delete Group: This removes the group from the list. You are asked if you want to have references to the group automatically removed.

• Reset Group: This removes all relates for the currently highlighted group.

• Change ID: This allows the group ID to be changed. This may need to be done if two databases are being merged together. MHI automatically changes all references to use the new ID. A gauge is displayed to show the progress of the change.

• Relate: Shows the Relate Window. Items marked *on* are operated by inputs related to the group. When relating inputs to groups, be sure that all relates defined by the group are allowable for the input.

• Copy Relates: Copies the relates and/or message from an input point to the current group (see Figure 21). The values of the panel, circuit and device are required. Most conventional circuits use a device number of 0 (zero). Press Copy to copy the information.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 of the Modul-R Human

Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.6 Panel Window

Overview

The Panel Window (see Figure 8 ) allows editing of all panel level options. It defines the hardware mounted in the panel and the functionality of the programmable outputs. The programming controls provided change to reflect the capabilities of the currently selected panel. The Title Bar describes the currently highlighted panel or annunciator.

18

Figure 8: Panel Window

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Pushbuttons

The Panel Window has the following push buttons along the right side:

• Exit: Close the Panel Window and return to the System Window.

• Add Panel: Add another panel to the system. A dialog box is displayed. The default options are to use the next available panel ID and to select an MR-2200 or MR-2900 panel. Change these values as required. You are also asked if you want MHI to automatically set the Next ID. If allowed, this panel has the next higher numbered panel as its Next ID and the panel with the next lower number is set to have this panel as its Next

ID. If the new panel is the highest numbered panel, it uses the lowest numbered panel as its Next ID.

• Delete: Remove the current panel from the system. This also loses all input circuit information for the panel. Any of the panel's outputs that are referenced become invalid and are removed by the next verify.

• Input Circuits: Display the Circuits Window.

• Internal Circuits: Display the Internal Circuit Window.

• More Info: This displays a dialog box listing basic information about the panel including the date the database was last downloaded into a panel, the number of times downloaded, etc.

• Change Type: Displays a dialog box for changing the type of the current panel. This allows for easier correction of mistakes in creating the initial database and for easier updating of the database if a panel type is changed in the field. Only certain type changes are allowed.

Note: This can have far reaching effects on a system. Ensure that changing the panel type is required prior to doing so. Any information that is no longer valid with the new panel type is lost.

• Change ID: Displays a dialog box for changing the ID of the current panel. MHI automatically changes all references to use the new ID. This process could take a long time for a large database. A gauge is displayed to show the progress of the change.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 of the Modul-R Human

Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

Message

The Message is a text entry box. This is a 3 line by 20 character message that is associated with the Panel. This message is displayed in Alarm Lists with signals that are generated by this panel.

It also is included in any print-outs generated by the Master Panel of the system. This message should include enough information that identifies the panel and its location to fire or service personnel.

Mode

The Mode list-box allows you to select the circuit type for the addressable (SLC) circuits. Choices are 2 Class B (Style 4) Circuits or 2 Class A (Style 6) Circuits for the MR-2200 and 1 Class B (Style

4) Circuit or 1 Class A (style 6) Circuit for the MR-2100.

Outputs

The Outputs area lists the function of the outputs of the panel. Use the Outputs Button to show the

Outputs Dialog, which allows for the programming of the Outputs and the relays.

19

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Options

The Options button displays the Options Dialog. This allows for the programming of the various panel options, such as Hot Keys, bell timers, etc.

LED Annunciator Connect

The LED Annunciator Connect is marked by default (to enable the main display). You can select the number of LEDs, up to 72 LED zones, which are considered an extension of the panel itself.

Choose the number of LED zones using the Local Ann. LED Cnt drop down box. Up to seven

MR-2614s can be attached to the panel, each one shows the same information.

IDs Button

The IDs button displays all possible IDs of the MR-2614 and MR-2644 annunciators. Check those

IDs that are connected to the system.

Panel List

The Panel List is a list-box located in the top left corner of the window. It lists all the panels, both

Control and Annunciator, which are defined in the system. The highlighted entry in the List is the one that is currently being edited. I’s description is also shown in the title bar of the Panel Window.

If a different panel is selected, all the controls in the window change to reflect this. Use the

<Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another panel.

Next ID

The Next ID is a text entry box located to the right of the push buttons at the top of the Panel

Window. It is not displayed for single panel systems. It is used to define the ID of the next panel in the network loop. Specify the panel ID of the panel to be connected to the COM 1 terminals of the current panel

Hot Key Routing

Hot Key Routing is a set of radio buttons for setting the other panels or annunciators to be controlled by the current panel. To have no other panels affected by the current panel, mark Local.

To have the current panel affect all other panels on the network, mark Global. To choose only some panels, mark Custom. A text entry box entitled route panel IDs is then displayed. Enter the panel IDs to be controlled separated by commas, e.g. “2, 3, 4". Each ID listed receives Hot Key commands from the current panel whenever its Hot Keys are pressed.

20

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

2.7 Annunciators Window

Overview

Annunciators have the following unique controls for programming (see Figure 9 ).

Figure 9: Annunciator Panel Window

LCD Check Box

The LCD check box is located immediately left of the buttons. It indicates whether or not the annunciator has an optional alpha-numeric LCD. This setting is used by MHI only to determine if the Message Receive check box should be shown for the annunciator in the Relate Window. This value is not sent to the annunciator. The annunciator determines for itself if an LCD is installed or not.

LED Count

LED Count is located directly below the LCD check box. This defines the number of LED zones the annunciator uses. A count of zero disables the Hot LEDs and Common LED.

Hot LED

Hot LED is located directly below the LED Count drop down. This value defines the first of four

LED zones the annunciator uses for internal functions. Any of the zones can be chosen with the requirement that there are four consecutive zones available. Entering a zone of 0 disables the hot key zones. These zones reflect the current status of the annunciator and the panel(s) to which it sends commands.

21

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Interpreting Flashing LEDs

The LEDs have the following meaning when flashing:

Zone n alarm: Acknowledge available

Zone n supervisory: Reset available (green)

Zone n trouble: Reset available (yellow)

Zone n+1 alarm: Signal Silence active

Zone n+1 supervisory: Signal Silence available

Zone n+1 trouble: 2nd Stage Inhibit active

Zone n+2 alarm: 2nd Stage Inhibit available

Zone n+2 supervisory: Future use

Zone n+2 trouble: Future use

Zone n+3 alarm: Future use

Zone n+3 supervisory: Future use

Zone n+3 trouble: Power On

Note: The Power On LED refers to the 24 VDC to the annunciator, not to any AC source.

Common LED

Common LED is located directly below the Hot LED setting. This is the LED zone the annunciator uses as a common alarm, supervisory and trouble indication. It is a summation of the zone LEDs of the annunciator. Any LED zone may be used. The zone chosen is not available for general annunciation. Entering a zone of 0 disables the common zone.

Ports

Ports is located below the Common LED setting. This option enables (double) or disables (single) the COM 1 network port. If both ports are enabled, the Next ID text box becomes available (see above for a description of Next ID).

2.8 Outputs Dialog

Overview

The Outputs Dialog (see Figure 10 ) allows for the programming of the panel’s outputs and function relays.

22

Figure 10: Panel Outputs

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Outputs

The Outputs section is a list box that is used to select the output to program. Once the output is selected, it is programmable for the following output types:

• Bell: This is a standard signalling circuit. It does not sound codes.

• Strobe: This signalling circuit for use with strobes. Strobe circuits cannot be silenced until the system is reset.

• Coded Bell: This signalling circuit sounds out the code for any input that operates it and then silences.

• Auxiliary Power (AuxPwr): This turns on the Output continuously to supply power for auxiliary devices, such as annunciators. If a Duration time is given for the Auxiliary Power circuit, the circuit is powered off for that number of seconds (from 1 to 30) when the panel

Reset key is pressed with neither of its LEDs flashing. This allows for the reset of 4 wire detectors. A duration time of 0 prevents this operation. Auxiliary Power circuits are turned off by the panel while it is in its power up cycle.

• Follow Supervisory (follow Supv): The output sounds when there is any supervisory condition present on the panel. Pressing Acknowledge silences the circuit.

• Follow Trouble (follow Trbl): The output sounds when there is any trouble condition present on the panel. Pressing Acknowledge silences the circuit.

Relay Delay

Relay Delay is the times that the relay waits before activating. A delay of 0 causes instant operation. This can be from 0 to 60 seconds.

Relay Duration

Relay Duration affects the time the relay is activated. For relays operated from inputs, it is the minimum time the relay operates. The relay must stay on for this length of time before it can be reset. This is for equipment that must remain off a length of time before it can be started up again.

If no input operates the relay, it is available for the reset of 4 wire devices. If the duration is not 0

(zero), then the relay activates for the duration time when the Reset hot key is pressed with neither of its LEDs flashing. The duration can be from 0 to 300 seconds (5 minutes).

23

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

2.9 Options Dialog

Overview

The Options Dialog (see Figure 11 ) allows for the programming of the panel and annunciator options. These settings affect the current panel only.

24

Figure 11: Options Dialog

Buzzer Mode

Buzzer Mode sets when the panel buzzer sounds. Normal causes the buzzer to sound for new supervisory and trouble conditions. All causes the buzzer to sound for all new conditions.

Note: Always set this option to All (default) to meet current codes.

Bypass Priv

Bypass Priv.

sets the privilege level required to set circuit and device bypasses, and manual control of relays, control modules and switches. This privilege can be set to Level 2 (default) or

Level 1.

Disconnect

Disconnect sets the privilege level required for the Disconnect and Test Mode Hot Keys. These can be set to Level 1 (default) or Level 0. If Level 0 is chosen, the Disconnect Hot Keys can be operated without a passcode being entered into the panel.

Banner Mode

Banner Mode dictates what the top line of the Main Menu of the LCD is. There are four modes of operation:

• Status Ind.: This mode displays the lines SYSTEM NORMAL and SYSTEM OFF

NORMAL.

• Panel Ban.: This mode displays the 20 characters of text entered into the text box that appears below the drop down while this mode is selected.

• System Ban.: This mode displays the text defined by the System Banner.

• Equip. Desc.: This mode allows the panel to display its own identification text.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

AC Fail

The AC Fail is the delay before the panel reports that it has lost AC power. The panel itself goes into AC Fail mode to conserve power immediately upon losing AC. This delay is the length of time before the panel generates the trouble condition. This can be set from 0 to 1800 minutes (30 hours). If a time of 0 minutes is entered, the panel uses a 10 second delay. Note: For a panel connected to UL-listed monitoring stations, a time of 6 to 12 hours (360 to 720 minutes) is required. The 30-hour time is available for those locations with long standby requirements.

Fan Delay

Fan Delay sets the number of scans between the reset of each Control Module (relay) on an addressable circuit. This is to allow for the staggered restart of fans when the system is reset. This option can be enabled or disabled on each addressable circuit as required. It has no affect on

Control Modules (supervising).

Bell Cutoff

Bell Cutoff is the length of time the bells sound before they are automatically silenced by the panel.

A time of 0 disables this feature. The cutoff can be set from 5 to 30 minutes.

Coded Bell Speed

Coded Bell Speed sets the time interval between the bits of the codes. This speed can be 1, ¾, ½ or ¼ second. The time between digits is three times this speed. The time between rounds is seven times this speed. Note that a minimum of three rounds of coded bells is required per NFPA 72.

Maintenance Margin

Maintenance Margin sets the gap between the maintenance threshold and the alarm threshold for addressable sensors. If the sensor stays between these two values for the Maintenance Retard time, the panel reports a Maintenance Alert trouble for the sensor. The margin can be set from 0 to

500, with 0 giving no warning and 500 giving the earliest warning.

Maintenance Retard

Maintenance Retard is the number of consecutive scans the addressable sensor has to stay between the maintenance and alarm thresholds to generate the Maintenance Alert trouble. This retard can be from 5 to 50 scans. Scan time can vary from 2.5 to 5 seconds with usual values from

3.5 to 4 seconds.

Enable Disconnect and Test Timeout

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Dialer Configuration 1

The Dialer Configuration 1 dialog (see Figure 14 ) contains the First

Communicator Options,

Second Communicator

Options and International

Options.

The Communications option determines if the dialer will communicate to the central station. When Enabled is selected, the dialer will communicate all events as programmed. When

Disabled is selected, the

Figure 14: Dialer Configuration 1 dialer will not communicate any events.

The TLM One/Two Check options determine whether the dialer will test for telephone line faults on line one and line two respectively.

The Third Phone # can be programmed for two different modes of operation. When Alternate

Dialing Enabled is selected, the dialer switches between the first and third telephone numbers after each dialing attempt, until the maximum number of dialing attempts have been made to each number. When Third Number Backup is enabled, the dialer will use the third telephone number only if all attempts to communicate to the first telephone number fail. If all attempts to communicate to the third number also fail, a failure to communicate trouble will be generated.

When Disabled is selected, the third telephone number is not used.

The Dialing option has three different options for pulse or DTMF dialing. If All attempts Pulse is selected, the dialer will always use pulse (rotary) dialing. If All attempts DTMF Dialing is selected, the dialer will always use DTMF dialing. If 4 attempts DTMF then Pulse is selected, the dialer will use DTMF dialing for the first four attempts. If unsuccessful, the dialer will switch to pulse (rotary) dialing for the remaining attempts.

The SIA Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send the automatic reporting codes that are in the dialer, or use the reporting codes that are programmed in the Zone Data and

Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic SIA

Reporting Codes.

The SIA Max Events option sets the maximum number of events the dialer will send for one SIA transmission. When 20 per Round is selected, SIA sends a maximum of 20 events per round.

When 8 per Round is selected, SIA sends maximum of 8 events per round.

The Contact ID Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send the automatic reporting codes that are in the dialer, or use the reporting codes that are programmed in the Zone Data and

Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic

Contact ID Reporting Codes.

The Test Transmission Line option determines how the dialer chooses a telephone line to send the automatic test transmission. If Alternate is selected, the dialer will alternate between using

Telephone Lines 1 and 2 for transmissions, regardless of telephone line troubles. If Available is selected, the dialer will use Telephone Line 1 for transmissions. If a trouble exists on Telephone

Line 1, the dialer will switch to Line 2.

When the Force Dialing option is set to enabled, if the first attempt by the panel to call the monitoring station fails, on every subsequent attempt the panel will dial regardless of the presence

30

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual of dial tone. When Disabled is selected, the panel will not dial the programmed telephone number if dial tone is not present.

When the Busy Tone Detection option is enabled, if busy tone is detected, the dialer will disengage the phone line and try to place the call again following the delay between dialing attempts. When

Disabled is selected, the dialer will use the standard dialing procedure for every attempt.

The Pulse Make/Break Ratio option is for panels in international applications. When 40/60 is selected, the pulse dialing make/break ratio is the 40/60. When 33/67 is selected, the pulse dialing make/break ratio is 33/67.

The Handshake option determines the handshake used for BPS transmissions. When 1600 Hz is selected, the dialer responds to a 1600 Hz handshake. When Standard is selected, the dialer responds to the handshake designated by the format selected (1400 or 2300 Hz).

The ID Tone can be set to 1300Hz or 2100 Hz. The panel will emit a tone at the selected frequency for 500 ms every 2 seconds when it places a call to indicate that it is a digital equipment call, not voice. When Disabled is selected, this feature will not be used.

Dialer Configuration 2

The Dialer Configuration

2 screen (see Figure 15 ) contains the Swinger

Shutdown Variables, Test

Transmission options and

Other Options.

The Swinger Shutdown options determine the maximum number of zone events and trouble events that the dialer will transmit in one day. The trouble or alarm will still be displayed on the panel and logged in the archive, but the dialer will not transmit the event. There are individual counters for

Figure 15: Dialer Configuration 2

Zone Alarm and Restore, Zone Supervisory and Restore, Zone Trouble and Restore and

Maintenance Trouble and Restore. This feature will be reset at midnight. To disable the feature, program 000.

The Test Transmission Time of Day determines when the automatic test transmission will occur.

The entry is four digits (HH:MM). To disable the feature, program the time as [9999].

The Test Transmission Cycle determines the number of days between test transmissions

The TLM Trouble Delay controls the number of telephone line monitoring checks required before a telephone line trouble is generated. The dialer checks the telephone connection at 10-second intervals.

The Maximum Dialing Attempts to Each Phone Number is the number of attempts that the dialer will make to each telephone number before generating a fail to communicate trouble.

Post Dial Wait for Handshake is the amount of time the dialer will wait for a valid initial handshake from the receiver after dialing the programmed telephone number.

2.10 Circuits and Devices Windows

Overview

The Circuits Window (see Figure 19 ) allows for the defining of addressable input circuits. The

Devices Window (see Figure 20 ) allows for the defining of addressable devices. These two windows are nearly identical. Most controls on one are found on the other with the few exceptions noted. The current Circuit or Device is shown in the Title Bar of the window.

Figure 19: Circuits Window

33

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

34

Figure 20: Devices Window

Circuit List

The Circuit List is located in the top left corner of the window. It is shown on the Circuits Window only. This lists any defined circuits for the current panel. Each circuit shows the circuit number, type of circuit and function if applicable. The highlighted circuit is described in the title bar of the

Circuits Window. Unused circuits are shown using three dashes. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another circuit. The <Up> and <Down> Arrow keys change the current circuit. The <Right> and <Left> Arrow keys change the type of the current circuit. The <Plus> and <Minus> keys change the function of the current circuit.

Circuit Type Selector

The Circuit Type Selector is located below Circuit List on the left hand side. It is shown on the

Circuit Window only. It is a drop down box used to assign the current circuit type. If the circuit is unused, select not assigned. Only options supported by the Input Circuit Modules programmed for the current panel are assignable.

Device Type Selector

The Device Type Selector is located below Device List on the left hand side. It is shown on the

Device Window only. It is a drop down box used to assign the current device type. For addressable circuits, it displays all the sensors or modules that can be programmed for the current device address, sensors for addresses 1 to 99 and modules for addresses 101 to 199. If the address is unused, select not assigned. The following module types are available:

• Monitor (Class B): This is a standard monitor module using Class B (Style B) wiring and an end-of-line resistor. This must be chosen for MRI-M500DM, MRI-M501M and MRI-

M503M modules.

• Monitor (Class A): This is a standard monitor module using Class A (Style D) wiring. This can be used only with the MRI-M500M and MRI-M502M modules.

• Control (supervising): This programs the MRI-M500S for use as a generic signalling circuit. It can be turned on by alarm or supervisory inputs. It will remain on until the system is reset.

• Control (relay): This is used for programming the MRI-M500R relay module.

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

• Control (Bell): This programs the MRI-M500S as a standard signalling circuit. It will turn on continuously when activated by an alarm. They will silence when the Signal Silence button is pressed. It does not sound codes.

• Control (Strobe): This programs the MRI-M500S as a signalling circuit for use with strobes. They are non-silenceable and will be turned on continuously for both Alert and

Evacuation mode operation. Strobe circuits cannot be silenced until the system is reset

(unless the strobe duration is programmed – see Strobe Duration in section 2.5.2).

• Control (C-Releaser): This programs the MRI-M500S as a continuous releaser which remains on until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then turned off after the Delay until the panel is reset. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds.

• Control (M-Releaser): This programs the MRI-M500S as a momentary releaser which is inactive until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then not activated until after the Delay time. The releaser is turned off after the Duration time, or the activating zone and panel are reset. Momentary releasers function normally during an

AC power fail. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds and the Duration can be up to

1800 seconds. 1800 seconds is 30 minutes. A Duration of zero (0) will cause the releaser to stay on until it is reset.

Function Type Selector

The Function Type Selector is used to display and edit the function of the current input point. The following function types are available:

• Alarm: This is a generic fire input. Displays **ALARM** in the Alarm List when activated.

• Pull Station: This is a fire input similar to Alarm. The differences are it displays **PULL

STATION** in the Alarm List and may not have a retard time programmed.

• Waterflow: This is a fire input similar to Alarm except that it displays **WATERFLOW** in the Alarm List. Bell circuits can be made non-silenceable for waterflow type inputs (see section 2.2 System Window).

• Supervisory: This is used for such inputs as Low Water Pressure, Sprinkler Shut Off

Valve Closed, etc.

• Halt: This causes the related releaser outputs to not operate. The supervisory LED will be turned on by activation of this type of input. See section 1.3 Releaser Programming.

• Abort: This causes the related releaser outputs to have their associated timers to be stopped. The timers will start to run again when the input goes back to normal. The supervisory LED will be turned on by activation of this type of input. See section 1.3

Releaser Programming .

• Monitor: This is used to monitor the action of items such as dampers, door, fans, etc. The supervisory LED is used. Monitor inputs can operate relays and control modules.

• Non-reporting: This is a non-latching type of input. They can only operate LEDs, function relays and control modules. The supervisory LED will be operated. Outputs operated by a

Non-reporting input cannot be also operated by another type of input or switch.

• Trouble: This function type is used for various circuit types and for control modules.

Trouble type inputs operate LEDs only, no other outputs are allowed. This function type is assigned by MHI automatically.

Message

The Message is located in the middle of the top of the window. This 3 line by 20 character text message is displayed or printed for all signals originating from the current input point. Circuit types that use devices have a default message created for them when defined. This message can be changed.

35

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Use Grp Message

The Use Grp Msg check box is used if the input point is to use a group message. A text entry box appears when the box is checked. Enter the ID of the group message to be used. Only one ID can be entered. If a group message is being used, it is displayed in the Message area, but the message cannot be altered.

Input Circuit or Device Options

There are a number of options that can be used for each input circuit or device. Not all options apply to all inputs. MHI only shows those options that are currently usable. The following options are available:

• Enable Fan Delay: Controls the staggered turning off of Control Modules (relay). If checked, Control Modules (relay) on this circuit are turned off in sequence, from the lowest address to the highest address, at a rate set by the Fan Delay option in the Panel Options

Dialog, when Reset is pressed on the panel. The operation of Control Modules

(supervising) is not affected by this setting.

• Disable Maintenance Alert: Disables the addressable smoke or heat sensor from reporting Maintenance Alert. Maintenance Alert is defined by the device staying at almost alarm threshold for an extended period of time. This is usually an indication that a smoke sensor requires cleaning. Heat sensors in high temperature areas may need the

Maintenance Alert disabled to limit nuisance troubles. Standard room temperature (20 ° C) does not cause a Maintenance Alert on a heat detector.

• Code Bells: Checking this option causes only selected coded bells to sound coded signals. If coded bells are used the following options are then also shown:

-- No Restore: If checked, the panel does not sound the Code again when the input restores. If not checked, the panel sounds a single round of the Code when the input restores

-- Code: This is the sequence that is sounded when an alarm is received on this input. It can be up to 4 digits long. Hexadecimal digits are used, thus each digit can be from 1 to

F, where A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14 and F=15.

-- Round: This is the number of times the Code is repeated. It can be between 1 and 4 times for no restore inputs, and between 2 and 4 for restore inputs. Note: A minimum of three rounds of code is required per NFPA 72.

• Night Sens. and Day Sens.: Selects the Alarm threshold sensitivity for addressable smoke sensors. Heat sensors always use Normal sensitivity. Increased sensitivity causes alarms at lower levels of smoke. Sensors not attached to a switch always use the Night

Sensitivity. Sensors attached to a switch use Night Sensitivity while the switch is Off and

Day Sensitivity while the switch is On. Night Sensitivity must always be equal to or more sensitive than the Day Sensitivity.

• Manual Restart: Check this to require that the control module not be reset by System

Reset but by Manual Restart . Use of this option requires that there be a Manual Restart function key assigned to the panel.

Pushbuttons

The push buttons located on the right hand side are:

• Exit: Closes the window and returns to the previous window.

• Devices: Opens the Devices Window for the current circuit (Circuits Window only).

• Copy: Copies the circuit/device information, relates and message from another input to the current input (see Figure 21). The current input does not have to be defined. Relates cannot be copied between conventional and addressable input points. The Panel ID,

Circuit ID and Device ID (not always shown) list the circuit/device to be copied from.

Marking Transfer Main Definition copies the listed circuit/device type and function to the

36

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual current circuit/device. Note: Not all inputs can be copied to all other possible inputs.

Marking Transfer Relates copies the relates from the listed circuit/device relates to the current one. This may cause some invalid relates. Marking Transfer Message causes the message to be copied. Marking Transfer Devices (if shown) copies any device definitions that the listed circuit contains. These devices copy messages and relates as based on those settings above. There is no checking made at this time as to the validity of the values copied. Unexpected results can occur if care is not taken.

For each database that is created, a warning about using copy is shown. Marking the check box in the warning stops the box from appearing again for the database. This option can help speed up the creation of a database. By completely defining one input, these values can be copied to all other inputs, making any minor changes that are required after the copy.

Figure 21: Copy Window

• Relate or Trbl Relate: Opens the Relate Window for the current circuit or device. This allows for the programming of outputs, LEDs, relays and control modules to be operated when the input goes into alarm. The Relate button displays all output types that are available depending on the function type of the input. The Trbl Relate button displays only

LEDs that can be related. Note: All panel outputs and control modules to be operated must be defined before they can be included in the relates of an input.

2.11 Internal Circuits Window

Overview

The Internal Circuits Window (see Figure 22 ) allows for the programming of outputs, LEDs, etc.

for the various internal circuits (functions) of the Control Panel. Internal circuits 0, 71, 72, 73, 74,

75, 81 and 82 are fire alarm functions while all others are trouble functions. All internal circuits have specific meanings and are stored in the archive of the panel. See Appendix A) Condition

Codes and Zone Numbers for a list of all the internal circuits.

Some of the internal circuits are:

• Internal Circuit 0, General Alarm: This is the General Alarm function. It can be assigned to one of the Hot Keys on the control panel. General Alarm causes all the bells and strobes on the panel to operate in Evacuation mode. Any additional outputs, LEDs, etc.

that require operation are programmed using the Relate button.

• Internal Circuit 51, Comlink #1 Supervision: This is used for communications errors on

COM1 port of the panel or annunciator.

• Internal Circuit 52, Comlink #2 Supervision: This is used for communications errors on

COM2 port of the panel or annunciator.

• Internal Circuit 99, Common Trouble: This circuit is tripped by any internal circuit or trouble condition not associated with an internal circuit that turns on the Common Trouble

LED on the panel. This circuit is used to annunciate common trouble conditions at a remote location. This circuit is not tripped by troubles generated by input circuits or addressable devices. This circuit is not recorded in the archive of the panel.

2.12 Relate Window

Overview

The Relate Window (see Figure 23 ) allows for the relating of inputs, switches and groups to outputs, LEDs, relays, etc. These relationships are used by the panel to determine which outputs to operate for alarm and trouble states. Inputs can operate bells/strobes, LEDs, relays, control modules on any panel in the system. Switches can operate relays, LEDs, control modules on any panel in the system and control the day/night sensitivity change of any addressable detector on any panel. The title bar describes the current input point/switch/group and current output panel or annunciator.

Figure 23: Relates Window

39

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

Groups

Groups is a comma separated list of all the groups that the point is to use for relates. Up to ten groups can be listed. These groups are assigned to the point itself and does not change as the current output panel changes. Relates that are part of the groups are not shown in the Relate

Window but can be shown on the Map Window if so desired.

Panel List

The Panel List is a list-box located in the top left corner of the window. It lists all the panels, both

Control and Annunciator, that are defined in the system along with their panel message. The highlighted entry in the list is the one that is being related to by the current input. When a different panel is selected, all the controls in the window change to reflect this. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another panel.

Outputs List

The Outputs List shows the programmable outputs of the panel. It is not shown for annunciators. It lists all outputs, along with their definition and current state. The states are *on* for selected, blank for not selected, act if they activated by default, and n/a for not available. A blank definition is for unused outputs. Bell and Strobe outputs can only be selected for Fire Alarm type inputs. If

Complex Releasers are enabled, releasers can have three other states: Fast which operates the releaser immediately regardless of any delay that is programmed in; *A* or *B* which allow for

3.0 LCD Programming

3.1 Introduction

This chapter describes the panel components that are programmed via the LCD and keypad.

3.2 General Comments

About the LCD Menu

A number of items are programmed through the LCD and keypad. This is called the LCD menu. All options are under the PROGRAM option on the Main Menu of the panel. The Main Menu can be recalled to the LCD by pressing <Home> .

Note: The only item that must be programmed from the LCD menu is the Panel ID. This must be done before the database is downloaded.

There are multiple levels of program access. Privilege Level 0 is the base level of operation.

Privilege Level 1 allows access to privileged Hot Key functions and limited programming. Privilege

Level 2 allows programming of almost all system parameters. (Note that a Service Mode Trouble occurs when logged in Level 2.) Higher Privilege Levels are reserved for Secutron's own use and are not discussed here. Certain functions can be assigned to different privilege levels. These functions default to the higher of the two privilege levels.

While programming through the LCD menu, the panel beeps once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid key is pressed. Programming is done through a series of menus and requester screens. The menus present options to display other menus, show information, or request information. Menus have a ">" or "<" next to the description of each item. Use the arrow keys on the keypad to move the cursor and press <Enter> to select. In Figure 24, pressing

<Enter> brings up the Program Menu.

A menu option of more displays further menu options that do not fit on the current screen. All the screens of a menu loop around continuously. The default option, ie the option next to the cursor, is the one to the upper left of the screen. Generally, but not always, more is the default option.

Selector screens (see Figure 22) are screens where options are toggled on or off. Options that are on are marked by an asterisk(*) while options that are off are marked with a dash (-). Use the left and right arrow keys to move the cursor to the desired option and press <Enter> to change it.

Move the cursor to OK and press <Enter> to save any changes, or press <Clear> to lose any changes. In Figure 22, the alarm and trouble relays are selected and the supervisory relay is not selected to be disconnected when the Common Disconnect hotkey is pressed. Pressing <Enter> causes the alarm relay to be not selected.

3.3 Menus

Clock Menu

This menu has the following options:

• Date: View or change the date. The date is entered in MM.DD.YY format. Each section of the date must be separated by a dot. Press <Enter> to accept date typed. <Clear> removes any digits typed. If no digits are displayed, <Clear> returns you to the Clock

Menu. The new date is sent to all other panels on the Network, if used. All panels assume this date. The date change is recorded in the Archive.

• Time: Change the time. The time is entered in HH.MM.SS format. Each section of the time must be separated by a dot. All times are in 24 hour format. Press <Enter> to accept time typed. <Clear> removes any digits typed. If no digits are displayed, <Clear> returns you to the Clock Menu. The new time is sent to all other panels on the Network, if used. All panels assume this time. If <Enter> is pressed with no time entered, the current time is sent to all panels on the network. If a change of greater than 5 minutes occurs, the new time is recorded in the archive.

Notes:

1. The Master Panel in a network synchronizes all clocks in the network at 03:30 every day, sending both date and time.

2. Changing the time while the panel is calibrating aborts the calibration.

• Calibrate: Calibrates the clock so that it keeps correct time. Calibration takes 2 to 45 days. Waiting longer gives more accurate results. The panel functions normally while calibrating. When sufficient time has passed, re-selecting this function asks for the correct time. The calibration is then be reported. In a network, only the master panel needs to calibrated.

Note: Changing the time using the Time option aborts the calibration. If a panel is currently in a calibration, it ignores time changes sent over the network.

Common Relays Menu

This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. The menu has the following options:

• Disconnect: View or change the relays that can be disconnected by the Common

Disconnect hot key. Selected relays are marked by an asterisk (*). To change the selection, move the cursor to the desired relay A(larm), S(upervisory) or T(rouble) and press <Enter> to change. Select OK when done. <Clear> returns you to Program Menu without making changes.

• Test Inhibit: View or change whether common relays are disconnected during Test Mode or not. <Clear> returns you to Program Menu without making changes.

Switches Menu

This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2. View or change the status of any switches.

These switches can be set to On, Off or Auto. The Auto state only applies to switches that have a timer associated with them. The Auto state allows the switch to follow the timer settings. Any changes made are broadcast to the network so that all panels have the same state. Settings are retained by the panel if it is re-booted and the Master Unit broadcasts its settings to the network upon start up. See Switches Window for information on programming what the switch affects.

The menu has the following options:

43

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

• Individual: View or change the status of an individual switch. Each switch is shown in turn. If a switch has no timer, the Auto option is not shown.

• All Off: Force switches into the Off mode. The number displayed is the number of timers that are switched On. This option is shown only if no switches have timers associated with them.

• All Auto: Force all switches with timers to Auto mode. All switches with timers go into the state dictated by the time. The number displayed is the number of switches with timers forced On or Off. This option has no effect on switches without timers. This option is not shown if no timers are associated with the switches.

Battery

Displays the current battery status. The display shows:

Line 1: Screen Title

Line 2: AC State (diagnostic use only)

Line 3: Current State of the Battery and Menu Option (see below)

Line 4: Menu Options (listed below)

The menu has the following options:

• OK: Return to Program Menu.

• Test: Force an immediate battery test.

• Calibrate: This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. This calibrates the Battery

Charger. The batteries must be disconnected before beginning calibration. No keypad control is provided during calibration. The calibration display will return when calibration is over. Calibration only needs to be done when the configuration is erased. All Battery

Chargers come calibrated from the factory.

Addressable

The menu has the following options:

• Reset Max/Min: Clears the stored values for the maximum and minimum values returned by the addressable devices. These values are automatically cleared when the panel reboots.

• Duplicates Check: This causes an immediate check to see if more than one device is using an address. The panel automatically does this check on the hour.

• LED Mode: This controls how the LEDs on the devices are used. There are three options:

-- OFF/FLASH: The device LEDs are normally off and flash when an alarm is reported.

The flashing LED is reset when System Reset is pressed.

-- FLASH/ON: The device LEDs flash each time they are polled. They latch on in Alarm.

The LEDs are reset when System Reset is pressed. Note: Due to current draw limitations, only the first 5 detectors on a circuit latch their LEDs. This has no effect on other panel operation.

-- OFF/ON: The LEDs are normally off and latch on in Alarm. The LEDs are reset when

System Reset is pressed. Note: Due to current draw limitations, only the first 5 detectors on a circuit latch their LEDs. This has no effect on other panel operation.

-- RESET: This functions resets the LEDs to their off state.

• Sensitivity: This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. This allows for the manual adjustment of the sensitivity of addressable detectors. All devices have a default sensitivity assigned in the database. The detector can be set to the database default value or to one of the pre-defined levels replacing the database values. These manual values are retained if the panel is re-booted.

-- SELECT : Change the manual sensitivity of addressable detectors. The first screen asks for a circuit and device number. Enter the circuit and device or press <Enter> without

44

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual entering any number to view the first detector in the database. Each detector is displayed in turn, showing the current sensitivity and allowing for it to be changed or the next detector to be displayed. Press <Clear> to stop viewing the detector list.

-- PRINT: Print a list of all detectors that have a sensitivity other than the one selected in the database. This option is not shown if no manual sensitivities have been set.

-- ALL DEFAULT: Change all manual sensitivity settings to the default values set in the database.

• Bypass: This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2. This selects devices to be bypassed. A bypassed device is ignored by the system. Addressable bypasses are retained when the panel is re-booted. Only devices included in the database can be bypassed. Bypasses are annunciated by a common trouble condition. The Bypass menu has the following options:

-- ON: Select devices to be bypassed. Enter the circuit and device number. Press

<Enter> to accept the device and to enter the next one. Pressing <Clear> removes any numbers entered. Pressing either <Enter> or <Clear> with no numbers displayed ends the input mode.

-- OFF: Select bypassed devices to be returned to normal operation. Each bypassed device is listed in order. Select next to keep the bypass on or select OFF to remove the bypass. After the last device, display returns to the Bypass menu. Press <Clear> to return to the Bypass Menu. This option is not available if there are no devices bypassed.

- ALL OFF: Remove all bypasses, if any, from the system. The number of bypassed devices is displayed next to this option.

• Test: Select devices to be tested. Test Mode must be active for this selection to be available. All devices selected for testing are automatically deselected when Test Mode is turned off. The Test Menu has the following options:

-- ON: Select devices for testing. Enter the circuit and device number, or enter the circuit number only to select all devices on the circuit. Press <Enter> to accept the device and to enter the next one. Pressing <Clear> removes any numbers entered. Pressing either <Enter> or <Clear> with no numbers displayed ends the input mode.

-- OFF: Select devices under test to be returned to normal operation. Each device under test is listed in order. Select next to keep the device under test or select OFF to remove the test mode. After the last device, display returns to the Test menu. Press <Clear> to return to the Test Menu. This option is not available if there are no devices selected for testing.

-- ALL OFF: Remove all devices being tested, if any, from the test mode. The number of devices being tested is displayed next to this option.

• Control Modules: This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2. Allow for the manual operation of the control modules included in the database. There are three states available: Automatic (controlled by device inputs), Manual On, and Manual Off. This mode is retained if the panel is re-booted. Manually controlled modules are annunciated by a common trouble condition. The menu has the following options:

-- SELECT: Change the Auto/On/Off state of control modules. The first screen asks for a circuit and device number. Enter the circuit and device or press <Enter> without entering any number to view the first control module in the database. Each control module is displayed in turn, showing the current state and allowing for it to be changed or the next control module to be displayed. Press <Clear> to stop viewing the control module list.

-- ALL AUTO: Change any control modules that are forced on or off back to automatic mode.

Archive

This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. View and change the settings for the recording of optional entries into the history. The following items can be included or not included in the history:

• Test: View or change whether Test signals should be recorded in the history. The current setting is shown in the upper right corner. Test signals are marked as such.

• Non-Reporting: View or change whether non-reporting signals are recorded in the history or not. Non-reporting signals are recorded by default.

• Network: View or change the type of archive events that the panel will record in the archive. This is only available on the network master panel. The options are:

-- LOCAL: Record only panel events in the archive.

-- GLOBAL: Record all events in the archive.

Relays

This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2. If Privilege Level 1 is set and Level 2 is required, access to the menu is denied. This function allows for the manual operation of the relays. There are three possible states: Automatic (state determined by inputs), Forced On, or Forced Off. This mode is retained if the panel is re-booted.

• 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.

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

46

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual 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.

-- Delay: Sets the length of time the panel will wait before reporting the GRID package offline. This can be set from 10 to 255 seconds.

-- Disconnect: If enabled, the Common Disconnect hot key will shut down Port 3. The

GRID package will report the panel as offline.

Voice Evac.System (MR2-8E Program): Allows for setting parameters related to the connection to the MV2700 voice evacuation panel.

-- Mode: Selects how information is sent to the MV2700. There are the following options:

DEVICE (default): Send the device address or internal circuit number without translation.

ZONE: Send the LED number turned on for input circuits and devices and send the internal circuit for internal circuits.

GROUP: Send the associated Group ID(s) for all conditions. Anything not associated with a specific group sends a group number of 0.

-- 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 is considered to be off-line. The default value is 8. This would be increased only if the communications line cycles between on-line and off-line. (Range: 1 to 25)

-- Disconnect: If enabled, the Common Disconnect hot key shuts down Port 3.

-- Baud: Set the communications baud rate. The available fixed baud rates are 9600,

4800, 2400, 1200, 600 and 300.

• Terminal: Select ANSI or TeleVideo protocol. Most terminals and terminal emulator programs support ANSI protocol.

• Port 6: Allows for the setting of the baud rate to MR-2614 and MR-2644 annunciators, the city tie modules, and the MRDL dialer. The settings are 4800 and 1200. If none of these devices are programmed in the database, the message “nothing to program” is shown.

Alarm List

This menu controls the operation of the Alarm List. This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. It has the following options:

• Reset: Select when entries are taken out of the Alarm List. AUTO removes entries as soon as the condition restores. MANUAL requires that Reset be pressed before they are

47

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual removed. Conditions that have restored are shown as a restored condition in the Alarm

List.

• Remote: Routes the messages for events from the panel to annunciators. The options are:

-- ALL: All messages are sent to all annunciators.

-- SELECT: Messages are sent as directed in the database.

Passcode

Allows for the changing of passcodes. The Privilege Level 2 can change both the Level 1 and 2 passcodes, while Level 1 can only change the Level 1 passcode. Passcodes are four digit numbers in the range 1000 to 9999. Type in the new passcode and press <Enter> to accept.

Asterisks are displayed instead of the numbers. <Clear> removes any digits typed. If no digits are displayed, <Clear> returns to the Program or Passcode Menu.

The default Level 2 passcode is 2222. The default Level 1 passcode is 1111. These passcodes should be changed to prevent unauthorized access.

There is a special Level 2 passcode that is variable from day to day. It can be obtained from

Secutron if the Level 2 passcode is forgotten.

Memory

This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. This menu has the following options:

• Erase Configuration: This erases all initiating circuit, bell, relay, and privilege values entered from the keypad and LCD menu, and replace them with default values. With MR2 programs, this has no effect on information contained in the downloaded database.

Confirmation is asked before erasure. After the Configuration has been erased, the panel must be reset using the reset button at the top of the Main Circuit Board, if the panel does not do this automatically. The following items are not erased: Serial Number, Clock

Calibration, Level 1 Passcode, Level 2 Passcode, Main Board Type, Input Circuit

Modules.

5.0 Appendix B: Stand-by Battery Calculation

Batteries are designed and manufactured for a specific use. "Standby" is one of these uses. They are rated according to their ability to deliver a steady current for 20 hours ("20 Hour Rating"). A 10

Ah battery is unable to deliver 10 A for 1 hour, however it delivers ½ A (500 mA) for 20 hours. A car battery is designed to deliver "cranking" power for a short time, (a few hundred Amps for a few minutes). Unfortunately, fire alarm control panels need both of these characteristics, that is, driving a heavy bell load for a relatively short time, at the end of a 24 hour standby current drain. This protection necessitates certain over sizing.

Regardless of the standby calculation and tables, the battery must be at least 150% of the bell load. e.g. A 4 A total bell load necessitates at least 6 A hour battery (in terms of 20 hour rating).

The standard battery options available for the MR-2200 Control Unit are: a) 4 Ah internal, b) 7 Ah internal, c) 10 Ah internal, d) 24 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, e) 35 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet,

MR-2100/2200 Programming Manual

6.0 Appendix C: Service Terminal

6.1 General

The MR-2200 Control Unit displays information and accept commands via the service terminal port. The information includes initiating circuit configuration, current status of bell, relays, etc., diagnostic information, the archive, etc. The commands allow for the selection of the information to view, limited programming and basic operation. Certain Control Unit commands are available only at certain privilege levels. Units beep once when a valid character is received and three times if an invalid character is received. If a command is not finished within about 10 seconds, the unit beeps three times and loses any information sent.

The service terminal program provides the information on a number of different screens. When the terminal is first connected, it views whatever screen was the last to be viewed. To view Screen 0, which lists all the screens that are available, press 0 <Tab> . Press <Delete> to refresh the screen. Press the <Tab> key to view the next screen. See below for a complete description on the

<Tab> key commands. Certain Control Unit screens are available only at higher privilege levels.

6.2 Control Unit

Screens

The Control Unit uses 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit for communication over the serial port. The default baud rate is 9600 bps.

1.0 Unit Operation

1.1 Power Up Sequence

The power up sequence of the MR 2100/2200 (hereafter referred to as the MR 2200) panel is started in the following ways: power is applied to the panel; the hard reboot button at the top of the main board is pressed; a Network Reboot command is issued; or the panel has a fault that triggers the internal watch-dog.

The LCD will first display configuration information, then "INITIALIZING MEMORY PLEASE

WAIT". The panel will not respond to key presses or to zone activity. Once this step is done the panel will start to beep (buzzer does not sound after a Network Reboot). Press Acknowledge to silence the panel.

When the initialization is complete, the Main Menu will be displayed on the LCD. At this time the panel is fully operational.

1.2 Types of Inputs

There are a number of types of inputs that can be used in the system. Each has different uses and limitations. They are:

• Alarm: This type of input is the normal inputs to the system from smoke detectors, heat detectors, etc. They are required to activate bells and/or strobes, as well as an LED. They can optionally operate relays and control modules on a network panel. It displays

**ALARM** in the Alarm List.

• Pull Station: This type of input is for pull stations. They are required to activate bells and/ or strobes, as well as an LED. They can optionally operate relays and control modules on a network panel. This type cannot have a retard time. It displays **PULL STATION** in the

Alarm List.

• Waterflow: This type of input is for water flow detectors. They are required to activate bells and/or strobes, as well as an LED. They can optionally operate relays and control modules on a network panel. This type displays **WATERFLOW** in the Alarm List.

Through programming, Waterflow type alarms can make the bell circuits they activate to be non-silenceable.

• Supervisory: This type of input is for items such as Shut-Off valves and Pressure sensors for sprinkler systems. They are required to operate an LED. They cannot operate bells/ strobes but can optionally operate relays and control modules on a network panel.

• Halt: This type of input can only stop the operation of a releaser type output. An LED if there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system is required for annunciation of the Halt function. It will use the supervisory LED. Note: Use of this type of input must be limited access to maintain UL listing.

• Abort: This type of input can only delay the operation of a releaser type output. The Abort function maintains the current state of the releaser. The delay timer will continue to run until 10 seconds are left. The releaser will resume normal operation as soon as the input restores. If there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system, an LED is required for annunciation of the abort function. It will use the supervisory LED.

• Monitor: This type of input is used to monitor the action of items such as dampers, door, fans, etc. The supervisory LED is used. Monitor inputs can operate relays and control modules.

• Non-Reporting: These are non-latching inputs. They use the supervisory LED for annunciation. They can operate only relays and control modules. The LEDs, relays and control modules will follow the non-reporting input's status. The LEDs, relays and control modules operated by non-reporting inputs cannot also be operated by Fire, Supervisory or

Abort type inputs.

MR-2100/2200 Operator’s Manual

1.3 Status Display

The status display is located in the middle of the main display. It consists of 8 LEDs. The alarm

(red), supervisory (yellow), trouble (yellow), ground fault (yellow), and NAC trouble (yellow) LEDs will flash for any new condition and will be latched by the Acknowledge key. The AC LED (green) will be on while the panel has AC power applied to it. The monitor LED (green) will turn on if any monitor type input is active. The bypass LED (yellow) will turn on if any addressable device has been bypassed.

1.4 Zone LEDs

The optional zone LEDs are across the bottom of the main display. They are visible through the front door. Each zone has an alarm (red), supervisory (yellow), and trouble (yellow) LED. The alarm and supervisory LEDs will turn on as required by the inputs. The trouble LED will light for either an input trouble condition, a ground fault or if there is a bypass present. Use the LCD and keypad (see Section 1.8 below) to determine the exact condition. A new condition is shown by a flashing LED. After the Acknowledge button (see Section 1.6 below) has been pressed, the LED will be lit steadily. Note: If the buzzer is sounding on the panel, Acknowledge will silence the buzzer, but not latch the LEDs. Press Acknowledge again to latch the LEDs.

Each set of zone LEDs is programmed via the database to represent whatever logical zoning is required.

1.5 Buzzer

The buzzer gives audible indication of any conditions in the panel. It may sound in any of four modes. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the buzzer. ( Acknowledge will need to be pressed again to latch flashing LEDs.)

The four buzzer modes are:

• Steady: This indicates any new fire alarm conditions.

• Fast: This indicates any critical failures that must be attended to. These failures can include, but are not limited to memory overflow, network reboot required, database mismatch, etc. The pattern is 50ms on/off.

• Medium: This indicates any new supervisory conditions. The pattern is 200ms on/off.

• Slow: This indicates any new trouble conditions. The pattern is 500ms on/off.

MR-2100/2200 Operator’s Manual

1.6 Operator Keys

There are 8 operator keys. In the figure below, the keys are located on the lower left and are labelled “System Controls” The LEDs associated with these keys are used to display function status. The top three keys (Acknowledge, Signal Silence, and System Reset) are not userassignable. The bottom 5 keys are user-assignable for the functions listed in the following table.

The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid

(unavailable) key is pressed. The panel will record every key press in the history.

Restart

This will cause the programmed control modules to reset after the system has been reset in general. This is an MEA (New York City) requirement.

Relay Disconnect, Signal Disconnect, Common Disconnect and Test Mode can be made to time out automatically after 4 hours. Relay Disconnect, Signal Disconnect, Test Mode and Common

Disconnect all use the same privilege level.

1.7 Alarm List

The Alarm List contains all the current Alarms, Supervisory Conditions and Troubles. Each panel can be configured for one of three modes of operation: In Local mode, each panel only logs events generated from devices that are directly connected to it. For example, a trouble generated on

Panel #1 will not be reflected in the alarm list of Panel #2. Each archive only stores locally generated events. In Master mode, the panel defined as the master collects all network data and maintains an alarm list of all events generated in every panel. If set to Global, every panel displays all other panel’s events.

In all modes, the first/last entry of highest priority will be shown, instead of the Main Menu, if there are any entries in the Alarm List. Alarms are the highest priority, Supervisory Conditions are the

2nd priority and Troubles the 3rd priority. The LCD back light will turn on if any new entry is received. The back light will automatically turn off in 5 minutes (30 seconds if no AC) if there is no activity.

Each entry in the Alarm List consists of one to three screens. Each entry will include an event screen giving a short description of the event. Also, device and panel message screens as required.

For more control in viewing the Alarm List, when the summary screen is showing press <Enter> .

Options for viewing All, Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble entries are provided. Display can begin with

MR-2100/2200 Operator’s Manual the First or Last entry. Once viewing the events, one can look at the next one using the <Right

Arrow> or the previous one with the <Left Arrow> . <Enter> will act as either <Left Arrow> or <Right Arrow> , whichever was pressed last. <Up Arrow> and <Down Arrow> will rotate between pages of the event.

The event screen of an entry shows one of two forms:

1) Line 1: time, sequence number, and Condition

Code

Line 2: date and Zone Number

Line 4: description of event (alarm, trouble, ground, restore, etc.)

or 2) Line 1: time, sequence number, and Condition

Line 1: time, sequence number, and Condition Code

Lines 2 to 4: description from the database

See Section 2.1 for a description of Condition Codes and Zone Numbers.

The summary screen shows either the number of alarm, supervisory and trouble entries in the Alarm

List (shown).

1.8 LCD and Keypad

The LCD is located in the top centre of the front panel. The keypad is to the right of the LCD. They are used to view the status of the panel, to view the latest events, to set the date and time and to enter a passcode. The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed, and three times if an invalid or unavailable key is pressed. The LCD back light will turn on when any key is pressed. The back light will automatically turn off in 5 minutes (30 seconds if no AC) if there is no activity.

Pressing the Lamp Test button causes all panel LEDs to flash. Pressing Lamp Test again will stop the flashing. Timeout for this option is 30 seconds. The LCD will show Lamp Test active.

Information is presented to the user through a series of menus and information screens. The menus present options to display other menus, show information, or request information. The Main

Menu is displayed under normal conditions. If a privilege level has been entered into the panel, it will be displayed on the Main Menu as well instead of the time. Menus have a ">" or "<" next to the description of each item. Use the arrow keys on the keypad to move the cursor and press

<Enter> to select. <Clear> returns to the previous menu without changing any information and

<Home> returns to the Main Menu without changing any information.

The second line of the display is a clock which shows the current time in 24 hour format. If a privilege level other than zero has been entered, that privilege level will be shown instead of the time. The flashing colon shows that the panel is functioning correctly. All the digits of the clock flash if the time has not been set after a Hard reboot of the panel; also if the time is not set, the panel will show a common trouble. If any memory error occurs (Program Checksum Error,

Database Mismatch, FIFO Overflow, etc.) the clock will display 4 dashes instead of the time. The buzzer will also beep rapidly to indicate the memory error. The clock will also display 4 dashes if any configuration parameter is changed which requires a Hard reboot.

Only those conditions that are in trouble will be shown. Some of the messages are always displayed if the panel is in Test Mode.

Message Description

PROGRAM checksum

EEPROM checksum

DATABASE checksum

EEPROM failure not enough EEPROM to save addressable settings

The memory chip containing the operating program has an error in it.

Reloading the operating program will correct this problem. If this error keeps reoccurring, the unit will need replacement.

The memory chip containing the configuration information has an error in it. Changing a value of an item set through the LCD menu will cause the panel to create a new checksum. If this error keeps reoccurring, the unit will need replacement.

The memory chip containing the downloaded database has an error in it. Reloading the database will correct this problem. If this error keeps occurring, the unit will need replacement.

The memory chip containing the configuration information is not working correctly. It will need to be erased. This requires a Level 9 passcode.

Erasing the EEPROM will lose ALL information in the EEPROM. This includes the configuration information, the panel serial number and the archive. Be sure to record this information before you erase the

EEPROM. Contact a service representative for help and a Level 9 passcode.

The panel has a 64k EEPROM. The addressable device bypasses and the manual operation of control modules requires a 256k EEPROM for the settings to be retained when the panel is rebooted. Note: This will not cause a common trouble on the panel.

program mismatch hardware mismatch no database loaded

The version number stored in the EEPROM is different from the version number in the program. Either reload the old program or erase the

EEPROM. Erasing the EEPROM requires Privilege Level 9. Erasing the

EEPROM will lose ALL information in the EEPROM. This includes the configuration information, the panel serial number and the archive. Be sure to record this information before you erase the EEPROM. Contact a service representative for help and a Level 9 passcode.

The hardware listed in the database does not match the hardware listed in the panel. Correct the database and reload.

The panel does not have a database in memory. Load a database into the panel.

wrong database version or database mismatch no database for this panel low battery

The database is the incorrect version for the operating program running.

Download a database with the same version number as the operating program.

The panel contains a valid database, but the database does not contain the information for this panel. Either change the panel ID to the correct value, or load a database that includes the panel's ID.

The battery needs recharging or replacement.

1.0 Technical Information

1.1 General

The MR-2400 Fire Alarm Control Unit provides capability for up to 4 Input Circuits, 6 Polarity

Reversing Bell Circuits, 2 General Purpose Form "C" Relays and 2 auxiliary power outputs as well as system operated relays for alarm and trouble indication.

The basic MR-2400 Fire Alarm Control Unit consists of Main Circuit Board (MR-2401), Power

Supply (MR-2905), Enclosure (MR-2470).

1.2 Main Circuit Board

The Main Circuit Board (MR-2401) provides system controls and visual indications. It contains the system processor, programming port, printer port and non-volatile memory for system firmware.

Software is installed on the main board for critical functions such as programmable logic and timing functions and non-critical functions, such as custom zone and devices messages. All jumpers on the board are for diagnostic and test purposes.

The visual display consists of a series of LEDs for common system indication of alarm, supervisory, trouble and power.

The Circuit Board has an 80 character backlit alpha-numeric LCD. The display provides descriptions of inputs, display of history files, first/last device in alarm, custom messages, display of detector sensitivity, etc. The keypad is used to scroll through the display.

There is a terminal strip on the bottom of the circuit board for the termination of field wiring. Behind the terminal strip there are three connectors: an audio output jack, a 9-pin service terminal port and a 25-pin printer port. The ports are discussed below. The audio jack produces various tones in accordance with a system walk test.

Communication Ports

The Control Unit has a number communication ports available:

• The annunciator port is for connection to the MR-2614 LED Annunciator and MR-2644

Annunciator.

• The general communications port is available for a variety of purposes. Each different purpose will require a different operating program. This port requires the use of an

MR-2109-x communications board. It uses the terminal strip on the bottom of the main circuit board. Typical uses are for connection to a central station, or for connection to an

MR-2944 LCD annunciator. There are a number of versions available:

MR-2109-2 Driver for communications to MR-2944

MR-2109-4 RS-232 driver

• The service terminal port will permit the programming of custom software, such as device messages and I/O functions.

• The printer port connects to any standard parallel printer. The system will print every occurrence as it happens. It can be used for system commissioning and testing by producing a printed log of received events. This can then be checked against a log of tests performed to confirm correct operation.

1.3 Front Panel

The system controls consist of 10 system switches, a 15 position alpha-numeric keypad, and a Scroll Button. The 10 system switches are factory defined for operations such as general evacuation, alarm acknowledge, signal silence and system reset. The 15 position keypad is used for technical functions, system/detector maintenance, history recall, device/circuit disarming and manual operation of addressable output modules, relay modules, releasing circuits and bell circuits. The Scroll

Button is used to view the Alarm List.

Front Panel

1.4 Input Circuits

There are two classes of input circuits supported by the Control Unit:

SCROLL

Style 6 (Class A) This is a 4 wire circuit supporting addressable detectors and modules. It requires two input circuits, one (1 or 3) for signal out and following one (2 or 4) for signal return. Up to 99 detectors and up to 99 modules can be connected to the circuit.

Style 4 (Class B) This is a 2 wire circuit supporting addressable detectors and modules. Up to 99 detectors and up to 99 modules can be connected to the circuit.

Notes:

1.

Applicable codes and standards as well as good engineering practices must be considered with regards to the number of addressable devices connected to one addressable circuit. Isolation modules (MRI-500X) should be used whenever more than one fire zone is protected by one addressable circuit.

2.

Current MR-2400 panels will change style to match the database. Older MR-2400 panels were fixed as either Style 4 or Style 6.

1.5 Output Circuits

The bell circuits are rated at 1.0A @ 24VDC. They are protected with solid state fuses. (Note:

Maximum system loading and stand-by battery power must be considered when determining actual bell loading.) A 10 k

Ω

end-of-line resistor is required for supervision of Class B wiring. Class

A bell circuits do not require any end-of-line device. The bell circuits are supervised for open, short and ground fault conditions. The panel will activate bell circuits in three modes: Evacuation, which activates the bells continuously or with the temporal pattern as specified in ANSI S3.41 and ISO

8201 Audible Emergency Evacuation Signal; Alert, which activates the bells in a repeated 1½ s on and 3 s off pattern; and Coded, which sounds short "bings" to represent numbers. Through programming, bell circuits can be used for releaser and releasing type functions.

The general purpose Form "C" relay operation is program defined. The relays are rated at 0.6A @

120VAC / 2.0A @ 30VDC. The system defined Form "C" relays are for Alarm and Trouble indication. These relays are rated at 1.0A @ 24VDC / 0.5A @ 120VAC. The Trouble relay is normally energized so that loss of both AC power and battery power is indicated. The N.O. and

N.C. markings on the Trouble relay refer to this energized state.

The operation of the general purpose relays, releasing circuits and the bell circuits is totally program defined. It is possible to program the activation of circuits to any zone, group of zones, device, group of devices and to further inhibit the operation for a specifiable period of time. Any relays not programmed for use in the database are available for auxiliary power reset, ie the relay

2

MR-2400 Installation Manual will toggle for duration time when the Reset key is pressed. A duration time of zero will disable this feature.

The auxiliary power circuits are rated for 24 VDC @ 150 mA. They are supervised for shorts. Any load placed on the auxiliary power circuits must be included when calculating stand-by battery requirements.

1.6 Power Supply

The Power Supply (MR-2905) is rated at 8A unregulated, providing the system with primary DC power. It is complete with a battery charger rated at 2A and battery supervision circuitry. The power supply and battery are located in separate compartments within the control unit back box.

Battery supervision uses true dynamic supervision circuitry to simulate a load condition approximately every 90 seconds to ensure that the battery is capable of handling the system load requirements on loss of primary power.

If the battery voltage drops too low it is disconnected to protect against damage from a deep discharge.

The battery charger is temperature compensating. The constant used is -0.044V/ C.

Note: Never disconnect or reconnect the batteries while AC power is off.

1.7 Enclosure

The enclosure for MR-2400 Control Unit consists of a back box complete with door, power supply, and Main Board Assembly. The back box is fabricated from 1/16" steel. The back box provides necessary "knock out" type openings for conduit entry. The back box dimensions are 14 ½" Wide x

20 ½" High x 4 ½" Deep. A trim is available for flush mounting the enclosure.

5.0 Appendix A: Stand-by Battery Calculation

Batteries are designed and manufactured for a specific use. "Standby" is one of these uses. They are rated according to their ability to deliver a steady current for 20 hours ("20 Hour Rating"). A 10

Ah battery is unable to deliver 10 A for 1 hour, however it will deliver ½ A (500 mA) for 20 hours. A car battery is designed to deliver "cranking" power for a short time, (a few hundred Amps for a few minutes). Unfortunately, fire alarm control panels need both of these characteristics, that is, driving a heavy bell load for a relatively short time, at the end of a 24 hour standby current drain. This protection necessitates certain over sizing.

Regardless of the standby calculation and tables, the battery must be at least 150% of the bell load. e.g. A 4 A total bell load necessitates at least 6 A hour battery (in terms of 20 hour rating).

Note:

The MR-2400 Control Panel is capable of driving a bell load of 8 A maximum. This restriction must be considered when laying out a bell system.

The standard battery options available for the MR-2400 Control Unit are:

• 4 Ah internal

• 7 Ah internal

• 10 Ah internal

• 24 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet

• 38 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet

• 48 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet (not UL listed)

MR-2400 Programming Manual

1.0 Operation and Programming Concepts

Warnings: Before programming

1.

All applicable codes and standards should be considered when programming the Control

Unit.

2.

The Control Unit will continue to monitor input circuits and devices and will act according to the current program settings if an alarm is received while it is being programmed.

3.

Loading a new database will erase the current database before loading the new database.

If the new database is not loaded after the erasure, the panel will not operate.

4.

The database version number must match the number required by the operating program, otherwise a Database Mismatch trouble condition is generated. This condition will disable the panel until a correct operating program is loaded.

5.

The database must be completely loaded for it to be considered valid. The program keeps track if the last database load was valid/complete or not. An invalid database load will disable the panel until a valid database load is done.

1.1 General

The control unit uses a downloaded database for input circuit programming. This database includes the addressable devices on-line, and the Bells, Releasers, Functions Relays and Control

Modules activated by the addressable devices. This database is created and downloaded from an

IBM compatible computer using the Modul-R Human Interface (MHI) program. Refer to the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor for instructions on downloading the database.

Note: All communications are stopped during the database load. This will cause an off-line trouble to be recorded by the central station that communicates with the panel.

1.2 Addressable Devices

The MR-2400 uses analog/addressable devices. There are two general types of devices: sensors and modules. The following devices are supported:

Modules

MR-2400 Programming Manual

The MRI-M500M, MRI-M500DM, MRI-M501M, MRI-M502M and MRI-M503M monitor modules all appear the same to the MR-2400. This allows for the easy substitution of devices if field requirements change. The MRI-M501M and MRI-M503M modules are intended for mounting inside the back box of a conventional contact device. The MRI-M500M, MRI-M500DM and

MRI-M502M require back boxes for mounting.

The MRI-M500DM dual monitor module has two input circuits, both Class B (Style B). The first input is on the address dialed into the module and the second circuit uses the dialed address plus

1. That is if the dials are set for address 34, the monitor modules to be programmed into MHI are at addresses 134 and 135.

The MRI-M502M monitor module can be used for monitoring up to 20 System Sensor two-wire smoke detectors. The module requires a separate 24 VDC supply to power the smoke detectors.

Also, some external means of resetting the power must be provided since the module cannot reset the detectors. This can be accomplished with one of the general purpose relays of the MR-2900.

Do not assign any usage to the relay in the MHI database. Also, the relay must be assigned a non-zero duration. Then the relay will operate whenever the Reset hot key is pressed when it has nothing else to reset (neither LED is flashing).

The MRI-M500S control module can be used to control a supervised output, such as a bell or strobe circuit. The control module monitors the circuit wiring and troubles will be reported. The module will require a separate 24 VDC supply for the controlled circuit. When programming the database in MHI, be sure to program the control module correctly. Choose any “Control ( str )” other than “Control (relay)” for the MRI-M500S module. The MR-2400 will not operate a control module if the supervised circuit is shorted. Also there are options in MHI that affect the MRI-M500S control module but not the MRI-M500R relay module.

The MRI-M500R relay provides two Form C relays. Choose“Control (relay)” for the MRI-M500R module. There are options in MHI that affect the MRI-M500R relay module that do not affect the

MRI-M500S control module.

The MRI-M500X isolator module is used to prevent wiring faults from affecting the entire circuit. It divides the addressable circuit into sections. The isolator has separate IN and OUT wiring. A short on one side of the isolator will not be seen on or affect the other side. Isolator modules do not use addresses. The isolator relies on a voltage threshold to determine whether it should be isolating or not. This voltage threshold is around 6.5V. All isolators in a system are in isolated mode on system power up. If there is an excess of current draw, the isolator will not close. When the short is removed, the isolator module will automatically close the circuit again. The LED on the isolator module will turn on when the module is in isolated mode, otherwise it will flash periodically. System

Sensor recommends no more than 25 devices between isolator modules since the inrush current of the devices may mimic a short condition preventing the isolator from closing. MRI-3251 detectors have an inrush current of up to 10 times that of other devices, thus only two can be placed between isolators.

The sensors all use bases for mounting. Besides the standard plain bases, there are also relay bases, isolator bases and a sounder base. The available bases are:

MRI-B501

MRI-B501B

MRI-B210LP

MRI-B501BH

MRI-B524BI

MRI-B224BI

MRI-B524RB

MRI-B224RB

Flangeless base for all sensors

Flanged base for MRI-x551 sensors

Flanged base for MRI-x251 sensors, low profile

Sounder base for all sensors

Isolator base for MRI-x551 sensors

Isolator base for MRI-x251 sensors, low profile

Relay base for MRI-x551 sensors

Relay base for MRI-x251 sensors, low profile

The relay and sounder bases are activated by the sensor LED. When this LED stays on for more than 10 seconds, the base will activate. This requires that the MR-2400 have the LED mode set to

2

MR-2400 Programming Manual

FLASH. This is done through the LCD Menu by choosing PROGRAM/ADDRESSABLE/

LED MODE/FLASH. The MR-2400 will only turn on the LEDs of up to 5 devices

1

per addressable circuit to prevent excess current flow. While the panel will continue to respond to further alarms from the circuit, the panel will not turn on additional LEDs. The MRI-B501BH sounder base requires a separate 24 VDC supply for operation. If the polarity of this supply is reversed for more than 10 seconds, the sounder base will activate.

Isolator bases function the same as isolator modules. The sensor plugged into the base is connected to the IN wiring to the base. The isolator is between the sensor and the OUT wiring.

While both sensors and modules have rotary dials that allow for addresses from 00 to 99, modules add 100 internally to the address programmed, thus using the address range 100 to 199. Since sensors and modules come from the factory addressed as 00, we do not allow that address to be used for an installed device. Address 0 is used for indication of wiring faults on the addressable circuit.

Device Faults

The following troubles (with condition code letter) can be reported by or for addressable devices:

• Missing (M): A device listed in the database is not reporting back when polled by the panel. For a new installation, this is generally indicative of devices that have been misaddressed. This error can also occur if there are any wiring faults.

• Illegal (I): A device is reporting as an address that the database shows as unused. For a new installation, this is generally indicative of devices that have been mis-addressed. For illegal sensors, since there is no programming available, if an alarm condition is detected, the MR-2400 will operate all its bell circuits.

2

The MR-2400 will always ignore illegal modules.

• Wrong Type (U): This occurs if the device is not the type expected for the address. For example, the database lists an address to have an ion smoke detector, but a photo smoke detector has reported for the address. This error will also be used if the panel cannot determine the type of the device.

• Trouble (T): Sensors: The device is defective and needs to be replaced.

3

• Modules: The extended circuit from the module has a wiring fault. Note: Control modules that supervise their output circuit will not be operated if the output circuit is shorted

4

.

• Duplicate (D): This means that two devices are using the same address. The MR-2400 does a check every hour for duplicate devices. If either device goes into alarm, the panel operates normally. Note: Due to the method used to detect duplicate devices, it is possible for a single device to appear as duplicate devices. Generally, the device will need to be replaced.

1. BRK programs dated before 2 April 1999 limit the number of LEDs to 3.

2. BRK programs dated before 18 February 1999 always ignore illegal sensors.

3. BRK programs dated before 9 March 1999 do not report sensor troubles.

4. BRK programs dated before 10 September 1999 do not operate control modules if in any fault.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

Class A Inputs

The Class A Addressable Inputs uses two input circuits, out on the odd numbered circuit and in on the following even numbered circuit, for example: out on circuit 1 and in on circuit 2. Both circuits are powered by the panel from a single source, so that there is no internal isolation between the circuits. This means that a short across one circuit will affect the other circuit.

1.3 Releasing Service

The six output circuits are available for releasing service through programming. The MRI-M500S control module can also be programmed for releasing. Releasers can be programmed to be normally On (Continuous) or normally Off (Momentary). Continuous releasers will be turned off by a loss of AC power as well as by input. There can be three types of inputs to start operation:

Normal, Fast and Cross-Zoned. There are also Abort and Halt features available. Releaser operation is subject to both a delay and a duration time.

Normal operation of a releaser is as follows:

1.

An Alarm input causes the start of the releaser delay.

2.

After the delay time, the releaser is activated for the duration time.

3.

After the duration time, the releaser is returned to its normal state.

After this sequence of operation, the releaser will have to be reset before it will operate again.

The inputs that activate and control releaser operation are as follows:

• Normal Input: Causes the selected releaser to start its normal operating sequence.

• Fast Input: Causes the selected releaser to operate immediately, ignoring any delay time and will over-ride the Halt function (see below). The releaser will run for its standard duration.

• Cross-Zoned Input: These inputs allow for multiple inputs to be required before the releaser is activated. Inputs are assigned either to the “A-side” or “B-side”. If an alarm is received from both an A-side and a B-side detector, the releaser will start its normal operation.

• Halt Input: This will cause the selected releaser not to operate. The releaser will have to be reset before it will operate normally again. The Fast Input will over-ride the Halt function

(see above). Note: If used, this type of input must be controlled access to maintain UL listing.

• Abort Input: This will cause the selected releaser to stop running its timer once it reaches

10 seconds. The timer will stay at 10 seconds until the Abort input is restored. The timer will then resume.

Restrictions on Releaser Programming

1.

Normal, Cross-zoned and Fast inputs can be any of Alarm, Pull Station, Waterflow or

Supervisory functions.

2.

Abort and Halt functions can only be assigned to monitor modules.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

1.4 Resetting 4-Wire Detectors

4-wire detectors can be reset by using one of the function relays on the panel. The relay is not programmed for any use, that is, it is unassigned. The next requirement is that a non-zero duration be programmed for it (see

Section 2.5.1). A duration of zero disables this function. Once this is done, wire the power for the device as shown in Figure 1 . A third party power supply can be used instead of the Aux Power as shown. Whenever the

System Reset operator key is pressed when neither LED is flashing, the relay will operate for the duration programmed.

2.0 Editing MHI Databases

2.1 General Programming Notes

The editing of a system is done through a series of input windows. Editing starts with the System

Level and progresses to the Panel Level, then to the Input Level, and finally to the Relate Level.

The Main Menu and option speed keys are not available while editing/viewing the system. While editing is being done, the word OPEN is displayed in the Status Bar. This is to remind the user that the system database is open and that the computer should not be turned off. If the computer is turned off while the database is open, it may become corrupted.

If the current database has been previously verified and you select Edit, a requester will be displayed confirming your request to edit the database. If No is chosen, then the database is displayed in View mode. Editing the database will change the database to a non-verified state and will change the Last Edit Date.

Prior to an editing session, the database will be automatically backed up. This back up copy will have the same name as the original database, but will incorporate a .BAK extension. If a database becomes corrupted, delete it and rename its .BAK backup file to have a .DBA extension. This will restore the database to the state prior to the last editing session .

Note: When upgrading from a version 17 (or earlier) system, a number of items that were programmed at the panel are now included in the database. See the file UPGRADE.TXT for a complete description of these changes. Follow these instructions to obtain the information required before upgrading your firmware:

1.

Connect your computer to the panel and open the Terminal window

2.

Select the Printer screen in the Terminal: press

14

<Tab >

3.

You should note that the title bar of the Terminal window displays the text "File logging in progress...". If this does not appear, press the button Log On .

4.

In the terminal window, type the following command: 99?

5.

The panel's configuration settings will be listed in the Terminal window and it will also be saved in the file: LOG_CONT.TXT, located in your program directory.

6.

Close the Terminal window

7.

You may now view the contents of the file using any standard word processor or the

NOTEPAD program supplied with Windows

8.

You must perform the above procedure for ALL panels in your system

Panel Types

There are a number of different types of panels that may be programmed.

• MR-2900 (mb2931) Fire Panel: Not covered in this manual.

• MR-2900 (mb2921) Fire Panel: Not covered in this manual.

• MR-2900 (mb2901) Fire Panel: Not covered in this manual.

• MR-2200 Fire Panel: Not covered in this manual.

• MR-2400 Fire Panel: This panel has four addressable input circuits that can be programmed for either 2 Class A or 4 Class B input circuits. New MR-2400 panels will use the class set in the database. Older MR-2400 panels will need the database to match the class fixed in the panel. There are six power-reversing output circuits. These output circuits can be programmed to be used as either bells or releaser type circuits. This is a stand-alone fire panel but it can be networked to the MR-2944 or MR-2934 annunciators.

• MR-2944 Annunciator: It includes the memory required to have a database loaded into it.

This allows for less information to be sent on the network. An optional 4x20 LCD can be included. It requires the MR-2910 Network Board for communications.

• MR-2934 Annunciator: It is identical to the MR-2944 in operation. It has the network communications built onto the board instead of using the MR-2910 Network Board. This annunciator is no longer produced.

6

MR-2400 Programming Manual

• MR-2924 Annunciator: Not covered in this manual.

• MR-2914 Annunciator: Not covered in this manual.

Notes:

1.

The MR-2614 and MR-2644 Annunciators can be attached to the MR-2400 panel. They are considered an extension of the panel by MHI and do not change how these panels interface with other annunciators.

2.

All products no longer produced will be supported for existing systems.

2.2 System Window

The System Window (see

Figure 2 ) allows editing of all system level options, as well as detailing other system wide information.

The Title Bar of the window will show whether editing or viewing of the database is being performed and the name of the current database.

The text in the top left corner provides information about the database. The top line gives the date and time the database was last edited.

The next line states whether

Figure 2: System Window the current contents have been verified or not; and whether the database has been compressed or not.

The options Bell System, Subsequent Alarm, Resound, Evac and Waterflow all affect how the notification appliance circuits (NAC), hereafter referred to as bells, react to alarm conditions.

• Bell System is a drop down list for selecting how the bells and strobes will operate. This sets the base operation for the entire network. If coded bells are required, the bell codes are defined for each input individually. The following options are available:

-- Alert: A First Stage alarm activates the selected bells in Alert mode. If the Signal

Silence or Second Stage Inhibit Hot Key is not pressed before the NAC timeout, the panel will progress to Second Stage. Second stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

-- Evac: A First Stage alarm will activate selected bells in Evacuation mode. Second Stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode. There is no timeout from First to Second

Stage.

-- Alert/Evac: A First Stage alarm activates the selected bells in Evacuation mode and all other bells on the panel in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or Second Stage Inhibit Hot

Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the system will progress to Second Stage.

Second Stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

-- Staged: The 1st alarm will activate selected bells in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or

Second Stage Inhibit Hot Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the selected bells are switched to Evacuation mode and the next bells, ie the ones with the next higher number, are activated in Alert mode. This sequence is repeated until all bells are in

Evacuation mode. When the highest numbered bell circuit switches to Evacuation mode, all bell and strobe circuits on the panel will be turned on in Evacuation mode. For

7

MR-2400 Programming Manual example, if the alarm activates Bells 1 and 4, after the NAK timeout, Bells 1 and 4 are switched to Evacuation mode and Bells 2 and 5 are set to Alert mode. A 2nd alarm will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

Notes:

1.

Bells must be assigned consecutive bells circuits with no Releasers assigned in between Bells. For example: circuits 1, 2, 3, 4 can be assigned as Bells but not circuits 1, 2, 4, 5 with circuit 3 a Releaser.

2.

Control modules cannot be programmed as bell or strobe if the Staged Bell system is used.

• Subsequent Alarm controls how Alert, Evac and Alert/Evac type bell systems behave when a new alarm is received while one is still active. 1st Stage has the panel repeat the

First Stage operation. 2nd Stage has the panel go immediately to Second Stage operation.

• Resound controls how the panels handle the automatic resounding of silence bells when a new alarm is received. There are two modes:

-- Local: Each panel will resound only its own silenced bells when a new alarm is received. This would be used when panels in a network are in different buildings, such as a campus.

-- Global: All panels in a network will resound silenced bells when a new alarm condition is received on any panel in the network. This is used when the panels are all in the same building, such as a large plant. (This setting is not applicable to the MR-2400

FACP as it is not networkable.)

• Evac controls whether the bell system Evacuation Mode sounds Steady (continuously) or uses a Temporal pattern as specified in ANSI S3.41 and ISO 8201 Audible Emergency

Evacuation Signal . The pattern used ½s On, ½s Off, ½s On, ½s Off, ½s On, 1½s Off repeated.

• Waterflow controls if bells can be silenced if they are started by a waterflow type input. If

Non-Silenceable is chosen, bell circuits activated due to a waterflow input cannot be silenced until the waterflow device has restored.

Note: This setting affects the bell circuits only. It has no affect on control module operation.

• Language chooses English (default), French or Hungarian characters to be used in messages. See Appendix C Languages of the Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor for a description of the letters supported and the method of entering them.

• Alarm List Sequence controls which end of the Alarm List is shown automatically. If First is chosen, the first (oldest) item in the alarm list will be shown. If Last is chosen, the last

(newest) item in the alarm list is shown. Regardless of order, alarms always take precedence in being shown. Another way to think of it is that First shows where the fire started while Last shows where the fire has gotten to.

• Disconnects controls which panels the Signal Disconnect, Relay Disconnect, Releaser

Disconnect and Common Disconnect hot keys affect. This option is for MR-2200 and

MR-2900 networks. For the MR-2400, choose Local.

-- Local: The Disconnect hot keys affect only the panel they are on.

-- Global: The Disconnect hot keys affect all the panels in the network.

The System Message is a text entry box for defining a message that is 3 lines by 20 characters that is used to identify the system. This message is printed at the top of printouts and shown on some service terminal screens, but it is not used in any LCD except in STATUS/IDENTIFICATION.

The System Banner is a 20 character message that is used as a banner for the Main Menu of the

LCD. The default banner is “Modul-R by Secutron”.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

The Enforce Local LED Rules check box forces an LED on an input's panel be related. Normally an LED anywhere in the system is all that is required. This option will need to be unselected if the

MR-2400 panel does not have any MR-2614 annunciators.

The Allow Complex Releaser Definitions check box enables the extended functionality of the releaser type circuits and control modules programmed for releasing. This allows for the Fast (no delay) operation of a releaser and for the AND functioning of A and B side inputs to a releaser. See section 1.3 Releaser Programming for details.

The Enforce Group Association checking check box enables MHI to check to see if a group association has been included in the relates of inputs. This option must be enabled when using an

MRDL Dialer.

The Observe Daylight Savings Time check box enables or disables the automatic changing of the clock for Daylight Savings Time. If enable, the system will move 1 hour ahead the first Sunday of

April and fall back 1 hour the last Sunday of October (North American dates).

The Pre-alarm Buzzer , when enabled, will cause a tone to sound when an addressable device is in alarm during the Retard period. The tone that is used is a triple beep repeated every second.

Master ID defines which panel in a network will act as the Master panel. This must be set to the same ID as the MR-2400.

• Alarm List Mode sets the way the Alarm List messages are displayed on fire panels in the system. Annunciators will always receive messages as marked in the database. There are three modes of displaying messages:

-- Local: Each fire panel shows only Alarm List entries that are for that panel only.

-- Global: Each fire panel shows Alarm List entries for itself and all other panels and annunciators.

-- Master: The master fire panel shows the Alarm List entries for all panels and annunciators while all other fire panels show only their own Alarm List entries.

• Common Relays controls what signals affect the common alarm, common supervisory and common trouble relays of each panel. The are two settings:

-- Local: The common relays of a panel follow the events of events on that panel only.

-- follow Alarm List Mode: The common relays of a panel will react to both events of the panel and any events listed in its Alarm List.

The System Window has the following push buttons on the right hand side:

• Exit: Closes the System Window and, if editing, causes the database to be saved. After an edit session, a requester will ask if the database should be Verified. A database has to verify without errors before it can be downloaded.

• Panels: Displays the Panel Window. If the system has no panels defined, the Add Panel

Box (see p12) is displayed to obtain the first control panel for the system.

• Switches: Displays the Switches Window. This window determines which devices are attached to the switches and the timers associated to each switch. See section 2.3

Switches Window .

• Groups: Displays the Groups Window. This window is used to define groups of relates.

See section 2.4 Groups Window .

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

• Settings: Defines the Verify warnings to disable and/or errors to reduce to warnings for the current database. Not all warnings/errors can be disabled/reduced. The use of this is not recommended, but provided for special circumstances.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

2.3 Switches Window

The Switches Window (see

Figure 3 ) allows for the setting of the On/Off (Day/

Night) switches. There are

16 system wide switches available. All panels in the network will keep track of its portion of the devices related to each switch. Relays,

LEDs and control modules will follow the On/Off state of the switch they are related to. Addressable sensors will use Day sensitivity while the switch is on and Night sensitivity while the switch is off. The timers can be used to have the switch change

Figure 3: Switches Window state at set times each day.

Switches can be operated manually at the panel whether they have timers or not. If the Switch is associated to a Hot Key, the Hot Key will then operate the switches, causing the related LEDs, relays and control modules to react. Changing a switch manually at one panel will cause all panels in the network to change switch state.

Notes:

1.

Addressable detectors can only be related to a single switch each.

2.

Relays, LEDs and control modules controlled by more than one switch will stay on as long as any switch operating them is on.

The title bar of the window will always list the currently highlighted switch.

The Switches Table shows all 16 possible switches and highlights the current one. Select any one to make it the current switch. List entries will show the message RELATES FOUND for switches that have related devices.

The HH:MM (Timer) entries control the times that the switch will change state. An even number of times must be entered, ie. each on must have a corresponding off. All times are entered using 24 hour notation, eg: one minute after midnight=0:01, noon=12:00, 3 PM=15:00, 4 AM=4:00, etc. A time of 0:00 is considered as not used. If an action at midnight is desired set the time to 0:01, one minute after midnight; or 23:59, a minute before midnight. MHI will sort the times into ascending order after the Switches Window is closed.

The Start Mode - On check box determines if the first time listed should turn the switch On or Off. If it is not checked, the first time turns the switch off. If it is checked, the first time turns the switch on.

The on and off indication beside each time entry will change to reflect what each time in the sorted list will do.

Use switch as custom Hot Key allows the switch to be manually controlled by the Hot Keys. A hot key can be assigned to turn the switch on and another to turn it off. These keys will be marked as

HK in the Switches Table.

Description is a 20 character message that describes the Switch usage. This is useful in that the switch now has a description of its usage that is easier to understand when assigning Switches to

Hot Keys.

10

MR-2400 Programming Manual

There are five push buttons on the right side:

• Exit: Close the Switches Window and return to the System Window.

• Reset: This will remove all relates and all times for the currently highlighted switch.

• Relate: Shows the Relate Window. Items marked *on* will be operated/controlled by the switch.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.4 Groups Window

The Groups Window (see

Figure 4 ) is used for creating and editing the

Groups of relates. The Title

Bar will show the current group.

This dialog allows you to setup "Groups" which are composed of a text description/message and relates. Groups are a method of establishing zone representations. They are also used to program zone information for the MRDL

Dialer (see section 2.5.3.4

Figure 4: Groups Window

Zone Data). A zone representation may include a message and/or a group of Relates. Inputs (ie.

circuits and/or devices) may relate to a Group or number of Groups and thus acquire all Relates that are referenced by them. Inputs can also separately adopt the Group message. Making a change to a Group will affect all inputs (circuits and devices) related to the Group. This is a very powerful feature that can significantly speed up the creation of medium to large size systems as well as simplify changes. Forethought should be placed in defining appropriate Groups. Up to 250 groups may be defined.

The use of Groups greatly simplifies the changes made to a database. For example, if a new door is installed that has to be unlocked during a fire alarm, the control module that unlocks the door is simply added to a Group. This single change is then automatically picked up by any inputs that are related to the Group. Since this number could be hundreds, the use of the Groups makes databases easier to maintain and decreases the chance of mistakes when items are added.

Note: Though any relationship can be selected for inclusion into a group, an input that references the group must be able to accommodate the group’s relates. For example, if a group includes relates to Bell or Strobe output, associating this group to a Supervisory type input will generate an error during verification because this type of input cannot operate Bells or Strobes. It may be advantageous to separate groups in these cases.

The Group List shows all the defined groups along with their message (if any) and if there are any relates defined for the group. The current group will be highlighted. Use the <Backspace > key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another group.

The Message/Description is used to enter a message for the group. This set of text-boxes allows you to enter a message describing the Group. You are allowed space for 3 lines by 20 characters.

If desired, this message may be adopted by a circuit or device by checking the Use Grp Msg

11

MR-2400 Programming Manual check-box and specifying this Group ID. This is a powerful feature if you are defining a large number of inputs that require the same message.

The following push buttons are defined:

• Exit: Close the Groups Window and return to the previous window.

• Add Group: This defines a new group ID. The new group can have any number between

1 and 250. By default, the number will be the next one available. There is no need for the groups to be sequentially numbered or to start at 1.

• Delete Group: This will remove the group from the list. You will be asked if you want to have references to the group automatically removed.

• Reset Group: This will remove all relates for the currently highlighted group.

• Change ID: This allows the group ID to be changed. This may need to be done if two databases are being merged together. MHI will automatically change all references to use the new ID. A gauge will be displayed to show the progress of the change.

• Relate: Shows the Relate Window. Items marked *on* will be operated by inputs related to the group. When relating inputs to groups, be sure that all relates defined by the group are allowable for the input.

• Copy Relates: Copies the relates and/or message from an input point to the current group (see Figure 20 ). The values of the panel, circuit and device are required. Most conventional circuits use a device number of 0 (zero). Press Copy to copy the information.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.5 Panel Window

The Panel Window (see Figure 5 ) allows editing of all panel level options. It defines the hardware mounted in the panel and the functionality of the programmable outputs. The programming controls provided will change to reflect the capabilities of the currently selected panel. The Title

Bar will describe the currently highlighted panel or annunciator.

The Panel Window has the following push buttons along the right side:

• Exit: Close the

Panel Window and return to the

System Window.

• Add Panel: Add another panel to the system. A dialog box will be displayed. The default options are to use the next available panel ID and to select an

MR-2944

Figure 5: Panel Window annunciator.

Change these values as required.

• Delete: Remove the current panel from the system. This will also lose all input circuit information for the panel. Any of the panel's outputs that are referenced will become invalid and will be removed by the next verify.

12

MR-2400 Programming Manual

• Input Circuits: Display the Circuits Window. See section 2.6.

• Internal Circuits: Display the Internal Circuit Window. See section 2.7.

• More Info: This displays a dialog box listing basic information about the panel including the date the database was last downloaded into a panel, the number of times downloaded, etc.

• Change Type: Displays a dialog box for changing the type of the current panel. This allows for easier correction of mistakes in creating the initial database and for easier updating of the database if a panel type is changed in the field. Only certain type changes are allowed.

• Note: This can have far reaching effects on a system. Ensure that changing the panel type is required prior to doing so. Any information that is no longer valid with the new panel type will be lost.

• Change ID: Displays a dialog box for changing the ID of the current panel. MHI will automatically change all references to use the new ID. This process could take a long time for a large database. A gauge will be displayed to show the progress of the change.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

The Panel List is a list-box located in the top left corner of the window. It lists all the panels, both

Control and Annunciator, that are defined in the system. The highlighted entry in the List is the one that is currently being edited. It’s description is also shown in the title bar of the Panel Window. If a different panel is selected, all the controls in the window will change to reflect this. Use the

<Backspace > key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another panel.

The Mode drop down box defines Class A or Class B operation for the addressable circuits. The panel will configure itself for this value.

Note: Older MR-2400 panels were factory set for either Class A or Class B operation. For these panels this value must match the value in the panel. If these values are different a HARDWARE

MISMATCH error will occur and the panel will not operate.

The Message is a text entry box located to the right of the Panel List. This is a 3 line by 20 character message that is associated with the Panel. This message will be displayed in Alarm

Lists with signals that are generated by this panel. It will also be included in any print-outs generated by the Master Panel of the system. This message should include enough information that it will identify the panel and its location to fire or service personnel.

The Outputs area lists the function of the outputs of the panel. Use the Outputs Button to show the

Outputs Dialog (see section 2.5.1) which allows for the programming of the Outputs and the relays.

• The Options button displays the Options Dialog (see section 2.5.2). This allows for the programming of the various panel options, such as Hot Keys, bell timers, etc.

• Port 3 Connect sets the purpose of the Port 3 general communications port. If the operating program loaded does not support the selected setting, a wrong port 3 program trouble will be generated by the panel. The options are: none: Port 3 is not used.

Digitel Protocol 1: Sets Port 3 to use the old protocol to the SE 2000.

Digitel Protocol 2: Sets Port 3 to use the new protocol to the SE 2000.

PC Connect: Sets Port 3 to use the GRID program interface.

Voice Evac. System: Sets Port 3 to communicate with the MV-2700 voice evacuation panel.

2944 connect: Sets Port 3 to communicate with the MR-2944 annunciators. MHI will

13

MR-2400 Programming Manual automatically choose this option if any MR-2944 annunciators are included in the database.

The MR2614 Connect should be marked if an MR-2614 LED Annunciator is attached. It has up to

72 LED zones which are considered an extension of the panel itself. Choose the number of LED zones using the Local Ann. LED Cnt drop down box. The MR-2400 panel will show this number of

LED zones. Though up to eight MR-2614s can be attached to the panel, each one will show the same information.

The IDs button displays all possible IDs of the

MR-2614 and MR-2644 annunciators (see

Figure 6 ). Also, the MR-2801b-MR and MRDL

(MR-2806-MR) can be enabled on this screen.

Check those IDs that will be connected to the system. If the MR2614 Connect box is checked, IDs for MR-2614 annunciators must also be checked. When the MR-2806-MR is enabled, a button will appear next to that option called Dialer Settings (see section 2.5.3 for a description of the dialer options).

Hot Key Routing is a set of radio buttons for setting the other panels or annunciators to be controlled by the current panel. To have no other panels affected by the current panel, mark Local . To have the current panel affect all other panels on the network, mark Global . To

Figure 6: IDs Supervised choose only some panels, mark Custom . A text entry box entitled route panel ids is then displayed. Enter the panel IDs to be controlled separated by commas, eg “2, 3, 4". Each ID listed will receive Hot Key commands from the current panel whenever its Hot Keys are pressed.

Annunciators have the following unique controls for programming

(see Figure 7 ).

The LCD check box is located immediately left of the buttons. It indicates whether or not the annunciator has an optional alpha-numeric LCD. This setting is used by MHI only to determine if the Message Receive check box should be shown for the annunciator in the Relate Window.

This value is not sent to the annunciator. The annunciator will determine for itself if an LCD is installed or not.

Figure 7: Annunciator Panel Window

LED Count is located directly below the LCD check box. This defines the number of LED zones the annunciator will be using. A count of zero will disable the Hot LEDs and Common LED.

Hot LED is located directly below the LED Count drop down. This value defines the first of four

LED zones the annunciator will use for internal functions. Any of the zones can be chosen with the requirement that there are four consecutive zones available. Entering a zone of 0 will disable the hot key zones. These will reflect the current status of the annunciator and the panel(s) it sends commands to.

Note: The Power On LED refers to the 24 VDC to the annunciator, not to any AC source.

Common LED is located directly below the Hot LED setting. This is the LED zone the annunciator will use as a common alarm, supervisory and trouble indication. It is a summation of the zone

LEDs of the annunciator. Any LED zone may be used. The zone chosen will not be available for general annunciation. Entering a zone of 0 will disable the common zone.

Outputs Dialog

The Outputs Dialog (see Figure 8 ) allows for the programming of the panel’s outputs and function relays.

The outputs section is a list box that is used to select the output to program.

The following output types are available:

• Bell: This is a standard signalling circuit. It sounds in

Alert or Evacuation mode as required. It does not sound codes.

• Strobe: This signalling circuit for use with strobes. They are non-silenceable and will be

Figure 8: Outputs Dialog turned on continuously for both Alert and Evacuation mode operation. Strobe circuits cannot be silenced until the system is reset (unless the strobe duration is programmed – see Strobe Duration in section 2.5.2).

• Coded Bell: This signalling circuit will sound out the code for any input that operates it and then silence. It does not sound in Alert or Evacuation mode.

• Continuous Releaser (C. Releaser): This type of releaser remains on until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then turned off after the Delay until the panel is reset. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds. Warning: Continuous releasers are also turned off when there is an AC power fail or when the panel is in its power up cycle.

• Momentary Releaser (M. Releaser): This type of releaser is inactive until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then not activated until after the

Delay time. The releaser is turned off after the Duration time, or the activating zone and panel are reset. Momentary releasers function normally during an AC power fail. The

Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds and the Duration can be up to 1800 seconds. 1800 seconds is 30 minutes. A Duration of zero (0) will cause the releaser to stay on until it is reset.

15

MR-2400 Programming Manual

• Note: Releaser type circuits can only be activated by inputs on the same panel.

• Auxiliary Power (AuxPwr): This turns on the Output continuously to supply power for auxiliary devices, such as annunciators. If a Duration time is given for the Auxiliary Power circuit, the circuit will be powered off for that number of seconds (from 1 to 30) when the panel Reset key is pressed with neither of its LEDs flashing. This allows for the reset of 4 wire detectors. A duration time of 0 prevents this operation. Auxiliary Power circuits will be turned off by the panel while it is in its power up cycle.

• Follow Supervisory (follow Supv): The output will sound when there is any supervisory condition present on the panel. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the circuit.

• Follow Trouble (follow Trbl): The output will sound when there is any trouble condition present on the panel. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the circuit.

Relay Delay is the times that the relay waits before activating. A delay of 0 causes instant operation. This can be from 0 to 60 seconds.

Relay Duration affects the time the relay is activated. For relays operated from inputs, it is the minimum time the relay will operate. The relay must stay on for this length of time before it can be reset. This is for equipment that must remain off a length of time before it can be started up again.

If no input operates the relay, it is available for the reset of 4 wire devices. If the duration is not 0

(zero), then the relay will activate for the duration time when the Reset hot key is pressed with neither of its LEDs flashing. The duration can be from 0 to 300 seconds (5 minutes).

Options Dialog

The Options Dialog (see Figure 9 ) allows for the programming of the various panel options.

Buzzer Mode sets when the panel buzzer will sound. Normal causes the buzzer to sound for new supervisory and trouble conditions. All causes the buzzer to sound for all new conditions.

MR-2934 Annunciators always use All .

All needs to be chosen to meet current

UL & NFPA requirements.

Bypass Priv.

sets the privilege level required to set circuit and device

Figure 9: Options Dialog bypasses, and manual control of relays, control modules and switches. This privilege can be set to

Level 2 (default) or Level 1.

Disconnect sets the privilege level required for the Disconnect and Test Mode Hot Keys. These can be set to Level 1 (default) or Level 0. If Level 0 is chosen, the Disconnect Hot Keys can be operated without a passcode being entered into the panel.

Banner Mode dictates what the top line of the Main Menu of the LCD will be. There are four modes of operation:

• Status Ind.: This mode displays the lines SYSTEM NORMAL and SYSTEM OFF

NORMAL.

• Panel Ban.: This mode displays the 20 characters of text entered into the text box that appears below the drop down while this mode is selected.

• System Ban.: This mode displays the text defined by the System Banner.

• Equip. Desc.: This mode allows the panel to display its own identification text.

The AC Fail is the delay before the panel will report that it has lost AC power. The panel itself will go into AC Fail mode to conserve power immediately upon losing AC. This delay is the length of time before the panel generates the trouble condition. This can be set from 0 to 1800 minutes (30

16

MR-2400 Programming Manual hours). If a time of 0 minutes is entered, the panel will use a 10 second delay. Note: Most installations will require a time of 1 minute (default) to meet required codes and standards. For panels connected to UL listed monitoring stations, normally a time of 6 to 12 hours (360 to 720 minutes) is required. The 30 hour time is available for those locations with long standby requirements.

Fan Delay sets the number of scans between the reset of each Control Module (relay) on an addressable circuit. This allows for the staggered restart of fans when the system is reset. This option can be enabled or disabled on each addressable circuit as required. It has no affect on

Control Modules (supervising).

Bell Inhibit is the length of time the bells must sound before they can be silenced. This time can be from 0 to 120 seconds. Coded bells will always sound out their complete code and then stop.

Bell Timeout is the length of time the panel will stay in First Stage operation before automatically progressing to Second Stage. This can be set from 2 to 10 minutes. Most codes do not allow this time to exceed 5 minutes. Check with local codes and the authority having jurisdiction for the allowable limits for this time. Both the Second Stage Inhibit and Signal Silence will prevent this timeout from occurring.

Bell Cutoff is the length of time the bells will sound before they are automatically silenced by the panel. A time of 0 disables this feature. The cutoff can be set from 5 to 30 minutes. If the cutoff is used, it must be longer than the Bell Timeout .

Coded Bell Speed sets the time interval between the bits of the codes. This speed can be 1, ¾, ½ or ¼ second. The time between digits is three times this interval. The time between rounds is seven times this interval.

Maintenance Margin sets the gap between the maintenance threshold and the alarm threshold for addressable sensors. If the sensor stays between these two values for the Maintenance Retard time, the panel will report a Maintenance Alert trouble for the sensor. The margin can be set from 0 to 500, with 0 giving no warning and 500 giving the earliest warning.

Maintenance Retard is the number of consecutive scans the addressable sensor has to stay between the maintenance and alarm thresholds to generate the Maintenance Alert trouble. This retard can be from 5 to 50 scans. Scan time can vary from 2.5 to 5 seconds with usual values from

3.5 to 4 seconds.

Smoke Detector Reset Time sets the time the MR-2900 will power off conventional 2-wire smoke detectors when they need to be reset. This time can be from 1 to 20 seconds. Current smoke detectors only need the default value of 1 second. Older smoke detectors, such as may be found in a retrofit installation, may need a longer time to reset.

Strobe Duration Time sets the time that strobe circuits will operate when activated when operated along with coded bells. The timer starts when the coded bells start. At the end of the timer, the strobes are silenced. A time of 0 (zero) disables the automatic silence. This value can be from 10 to 510 seconds.

Enable Disconnect & Test Timeout enables or disables disconnect timeouts. If the timeouts are disabled, Relay Disconnect, Releaser Disconnect, Signal Disconnect, Common Disconnect and

Test Mode must all be manually ended. If enabled, these functions will be automatically ended after four hours.

Trbl/Supv Output Auto Silence enables or disables the automatic silencing of the Follow Trouble and Follow Supervisory outputs during a fire condition. If enabled, the Follow Trouble and Follow

Supervisory outputs will automatically sound again once the fire bells and strobes have been silenced.

Suppress Missing Signals allows for the suppression of device missing signals for a loop that has a short or ground fault condition. If enabled, the panel will only report the short or ground fault

17

MR-2400 Programming Manual condition, but not the missing device messages. Note: This feature requires that the BRK program be dated 9 September 1999 or later (version 17.20 or later).

Hot Keys are a set of drop down boxes that define the functions of the operator keys on the front of the panel. There are 10 keys, each with red and green LED (some keys may have yellow instead of red LEDs). The LEDs are used to display function status. There are fixed placement function keys as shown in Figure 11 . The default layout is shown in Figure 10 . The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid (unavailable) key is pressed. The panel will record every key press in the history.

18

Figure 10: Default Key Assignment

The keys and their functions are as follows::

Figure 11: Fixed Key Assignment

Key Action

Acknowledge Silences the buzzer and acknowledges new troubles and alarms. If the buzzer is on, Acknowledge will silence it. If the buzzer is not on, any flashing LEDs will become steady. The green LED will flash when there is something to acknowledge.

Signal

Silence

Silences the bells. The green LED will flash when Signal Silence is available. There may be a silence inhibit before the bells can be silenced if they are activated by an

Alarm condition. The yellow LED flashes when the bells have been silenced. The bells will reactivate if a subsequent Alarm is received by the panel.

System

Reset

System Reset resets part or all of the system.

The green LED flashes when the system, or part of the system, can be reset. The yellow LED flashes when there are conventional smoke detector circuits in alarm.

Press System Reset to reset the smoke detectors. The yellow LED also flashes if the ground fault relay is activated. Press System Reset to deactivate the ground fault relay to check for restores and additional ground faults. If ground faults remain, the relay will be re-activated after 5 to 30 seconds.

Pressing System Reset with no LEDs flashing will operate any relays that are not used by the system and deactivate any Aux Power outputs. The time they remain open is determined by the Duration time programmed. If the Duration is 0, the relay or Aux Power output will not operate.

Notes:

1.

The system cannot be reset until all circuits and devices are reset.

2.

If both LEDs are flashing, the green LED function has precedence.

3.

The green LED will remain flashing after System Reset is pressed until addressable devices have had their LEDs reset.

Dialer Configuration 1

The Dialer Configuration 1 dialog (see Figure 13 ) contains the First

Communicator Options,

Second Communicator

Options and International

Options.

The Communications option determines if the dialer will communicate to the central station. When Enabled is selected, the dialer will communicate all events as programmed. When

Disabled is selected, the

Figure 13: dialer will not communicate any events.

Dialer Configuration 1

The TLM One/Two Check options determine whether the dialer will test for telephone line faults on line one and line two respectively.

The Third Phone # can be programmed for two different modes of operation. When Alternate

Dialing Enabled is selected, the dialer switches between the first and third telephone numbers after each dialing attempt, until the maximum number of dialing attempts have been made to each number. When Third Number Backup is enabled, the dialer will use the third telephone number only if all attempts to communicate to the first telephone number fail. If all attempts to communicate to the third number also fail, a failure to communicate trouble will be generated.

When Disabled is selected, the third telephone number is not used.

The Dialing option has three different options for pulse or DTMF dialing. If All attempts Pulse is selected, the dialer will always use pulse (rotary) dialing. If All attempts DTMF Dialing is selected, the dialer will always use DTMF dialing. If 4 attempts DTMF then Pulse is selected, the dialer will use DTMF dialing for the first four attempts. If unsuccessful, the dialer will switch to pulse (rotary) dialing for the remaining attempts.

The SIA Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send the automatic reporting codes that are in the dialer, or use the reporting codes that are programmed in the Zone Data and

Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic SIA

Reporting Codes.

The SIA Max Events option sets the maximum number of events the dialer will send for one SIA transmission. When 20 per Round is selected, SIA sends a maximum of 20 events per round.

When 8 per Round is selected, SIA sends maximum of 8 events per round.

21

MR-2400 Programming Manual

The Contact ID Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send the automatic reporting codes that are in the dialer, or use the reporting codes that are programmed in the Zone Data and

Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic

Contact ID Reporting Codes.

The Test Transmission Line option determines how the dialer chooses a telephone line to send the automatic test transmission. If Alternate is selected, the dialer will alternate between using

Telephone Lines 1 and 2 for transmissions, regardless of telephone line troubles. If Available is selected, the dialer will use Telephone Line 1 for transmissions. If a trouble exists on Telephone

Line 1, the dialer will switch to Line 2.

When the Force Dialing option is set to enabled, if the first attempt by the panel to call the monitoring station fails, on every subsequent attempt the panel will dial regardless of the presence of dial tone. When Disabled is selected, the panel will not dial the programmed telephone number if dial tone is not present.

When the Busy Tone Detection option is enabled, if busy tone is detected, the dialer will disengage the phone line and try to place the call again following the delay between dialing attempts. When

Disabled is selected, the dialer will use the standard dialing procedure for every attempt.

The Pulse Make/Break Ratio option is for panels in international applications. When 40/60 is selected, the pulse dialing make/break ratio is the 40/60. When 33/67 is selected, the pulse dialing make/break ratio is 33/67.

The Handshake option determines the handshake used for BPS transmissions. When 1600 Hz is selected, the dialer responds to a 1600 Hz handshake. When Standard is selected, the dialer responds to the handshake designated by the format selected (1400 or 2300 Hz).

The ID Tone can be set to 1300Hz or 2100 Hz. The panel will emit a tone at the selected frequency for 500 ms every 2 seconds when it places a call to indicate that it is a digital equipment call, not voice. When Disabled is selected, this feature will not be used.

Dialer Configuration 2

The Dialer Configuration

2.6 Circuits and Devices Windows

The Circuits Window (see Figure

18 ) allows for the defining of addressable input circuits. The

Devices Window (see Figure 19 ) allows for the defining of addressable devices. These two windows are nearly identical. Most controls on one are found on the other with some exceptions noted.

The current Circuit or Device is shown in the Title Bar of the window.

The Circuit List is located in the top left corner of the window. It is shown on the Circuits Window only. This lists any defined circuits Figure 18: Circuits Window for the current panel. Each circuit shows the circuit number, type of circuit and function if applicable. The highlighted circuit is described in the title bar of the Circuits Window. Unused circuits are shown using three dashes.

Use the <Backspace > key in order to quickly reposition the current selection to another circuit. The

Up and Down Arrow keys change the current circuit. The Right and Left Arrow keys will change the type of the current circuit. The Plus and Minus keys will change the function of the current circuit.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

Device List

The Device List is located in the top left corner of the window. It is shown on the Devices Window only. It lists any defined addressable devices for the current addressable circuit. For addressable devices, the type of device and its function are shown for each one defined. Unused addresses are shown with three dashes. Use the

<Backspace

> key in order to quickly reposition the current selection to another

Figure 19: Devices Window device. The <Up> and <Down>

Arrow keys change the current device. The <Right> and <Left Arrow> keys will change the type of the current device. The <Plus> and <Minus> keys will change the function of the current device.

Device Type Selector

The Device Type Selector is located below Device List on the left hand side. It is shown on the

Device Window only. It is a drop down box used to assign the current device type. For addressable circuits, it displays all the sensors or modules that can be programmed for the current device address, sensors for addresses 1 to 99 and modules for addresses 101 to 199. If the address is unused, select not assigned. The following module types are available:

• Monitor (Class B): This is a standard monitor module using Class B (Style B) wiring and an end-of-line resistor. This must be chosen for MRI-M500DM, MRI-M501M and MRI-

M503M modules.

• Monitor (Class A): This is a standard monitor module using Class A (Style D) wiring. This can be used only with the MRI-M500M and MRI-M502M modules.

• Control (supervising): This programs the MRI-M500S for use as a generic signalling circuit. It can be turned on by alarm or supervisory inputs. It will remain on until the system is reset.

• Control (relay): This is used for programming the MRI-M500R relay module.

• Control (Bell): This programs the MRI-M500S as a standard signalling circuit. It will turn on continuously when activated by an alarm. They will silence when the Signal Silence button is pressed. It does not sound codes.

• Control (Strobe): This programs the MRI-M500S as a signalling circuit for use with strobes. They are non-silenceable and will be turned on continuously for both Alert and

Evacuation mode operation. Strobe circuits cannot be silenced until the system is reset

(unless the strobe duration is programmed – see Strobe Duration in section 2.5.2).

• Control (C-Releaser): This programs the MRI-M500S as a continuous releaser which remains on until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then turned off after the Delay until the panel is reset. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds.

• Control (M-Releaser): This programs the MRI-M500S as a momentary releaser which is inactive until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then not activated until after the Delay time. The releaser is turned off after the Duration time, or the activating zone and panel are reset. Momentary releasers function normally during an

AC power fail. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds and the Duration can be up to

1800 seconds. 1800 seconds is 30 minutes. A Duration of zero (0) will cause the releaser to stay on until it is reset.

25

MR-2400 Programming Manual

Function Type Selector

The Function Type Selector is used to display and edit the function of the current input point. The following function types are available:

• Alarm: This is a generic fire input. Displays **ALARM** in the Alarm List when activated.

• Pull Station: This is a fire input similar to Alarm. The differences are it displays **PULL

STATION** in the Alarm List and may not have a retard time programmed.

• Waterflow: This is a fire input similar to Alarm except that it displays **WATERFLOW** in the Alarm List. Bell circuits can be made non-silenceable for waterflow type inputs (see section 2.2 System Window).

• Supervisory: This is used for such inputs as Low Water Pressure, Sprinkler Shut Off

Valve Closed, etc.

• Halt: This causes the related releaser outputs to not operate. The supervisory LED will be turned on by activation of this type of input. See section 1.3 Releaser Programming.

• Abort: This causes the related releaser outputs to have their associated timers to be stopped. The timers will start to run again when the input goes back to normal. The supervisory LED will be turned on by activation of this type of input. See section 1.3

Releaser Programming .

• Monitor: This is used to monitor the action of items such as dampers, door, fans, etc. The supervisory LED is used. Monitor inputs can operate relays and control modules.

• Non-reporting: This is a non-latching type of input. They can only operate LEDs, function relays and control modules. The supervisory LED will be operated. Outputs operated by a

Non-reporting input cannot be also operated by another type of input or switch.

• Trouble: This function type is used for various circuit types and for control modules.

Trouble type inputs operate LEDs only, no other outputs are allowed. This function type is assigned by MHI automatically.

Message

The Message is located in the middle of the top of the window. This 3 line by 20 character text message is displayed or printed for all signals originating from the current input point. Circuit types that use devices will have a default message created for them when defined. This message can be changed.

Use Grp Msg

The Use Grp Msg check box is used if the input point is to use a group message. A text entry box will appear when the box is checked. Enter the ID of the group message to be used. Only one ID can be entered. If a group message is being used, it will be displayed in the Message area, but the message cannot be altered.

There are a number of options that can be used for each input circuit or device. Not all options apply to all inputs. MHI will only show those options that are currently usable. The following options are available:

• Retard: This is the amount of time the input must stay in an alarm state before it is treated as a valid alarm. This option is not valid with Pull Station function type inputs. Addressable devices are programmed for a number of additional consecutive scans that must be in alarm before the panel will accept the alarm. The duration of a scan varies between 2.5

and 5 seconds. Note: It is the responsibility of the person writing the database to ensure that the retard time chosen does not exceed any limits allowed by code.

It is possible to generate long retard times that are in the two to three minute range if a large number of scans is chosen. For example, UL states that the system cannot take more than 50 seconds to report a waterflow condition. One has to ensure that the total delay of the waterflow detector and the input combined does not exceed 50 seconds.

• Enable Fan Delay: Controls the staggered turning off of Control Modules (relay). If checked, Control Modules (relay) on this circuit will be turned off in sequence, from the

26

MR-2400 Programming Manual lowest address to the highest address, at a rate set by the Fan Delay option in the Panel

Options Dialog, when Reset is pressed on the panel. The operation of Control Modules

(supervising) is not affected by this setting.

• Disable Maintenance Alert: Disables the addressable smoke or heat sensor from reporting Maintenance Alert. Maintenance Alert is defined by the device staying at almost alarm threshold for an extended period of time. This is usually an indication that a smoke sensor requires cleaning. Heat sensors in high temperature areas may need the

Maintenance Alert disabled to limit nuisance troubles. Standard room temperature (20°C) will not cause a Maintenance Alert on a heat detector.

• Code Bells: Note that only coded bells will sound the codes. If coded bells are used the following options are then also shown:

-- No Restore: If checked, the panel will not sound the Code again when the input restores. If not checked, the panel will sound a single round of the Code when the input restores

-- Code: This is the sequence that will be sounded when an alarm is received on this input. It can be up to 4 digits long. Hexadecimal digits are used, thus each digit can be from 1 to F, where A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14 and F=15.

-- Round: This is the number of times the Code will be repeated. It can be between 1 and

4 times for no restore inputs, and between 2 and 4 for restore inputs.

• Night Sens. and Day Sens.: Selects the Alarm threshold sensitivity for addressable smoke sensors. Heat sensors always use Normal sensitivity. Increased sensitivity will cause alarms at lower levels of smoke. Sensors not attached to a switch always use the

Night Sensitivity. Sensors attached to a switch will use Night Sensitivity while the switch is

Off and Day Sensitivity while the switch is On. Night Sensitivity must always be equal to or more sensitive than the Day Sensitivity.

• Manual Restart: Check this to require that the control module not be reset by System

Reset but by Manual Restart . Use of this option will require that there be a Manual Restart function key assigned to the MR-2400.

The push buttons located on the right hand side are:

• Exit: Closes the window and returns to the previous window.

• Devices: Opens the Devices Window for the current circuit (Circuits Window only).

• Copy: Copies the circuit/device information, relates and message from another input to the current input

(see Figure 20 ). The current input does not have to be defined. Relates cannot be copied between conventional and addressable input points. The

Panel ID, Circuit ID and Device ID (not always shown) list the circuit/device to be copied from.

Marking Transfer Main Definition will copy the listed circuit/device type and function to the current circuit/ device. Note: Not all inputs can be copied to all other possible inputs. Marking Transfer Relates will copy the relates from the listed circuit/device relates to the current one. This may cause some invalid relates.

Marking Transfer Message will cause the message to be copied. Marking Transfer Devices (if shown) will copy any device definitions that the listed circuit

Figure 20: Copy Dialog Box contains. These devices will copy messages and relates as based on those settings above.

There is no check at this time as to the validity of the values copied. Unexpected results can occur if care is not taken.

For each database that is created, a warning about using

27

MR-2400 Programming Manual copy is shown. Marking the check box in the warning will stop the box from appearing again for the database.

This option can help speed up the creation of a database. By completely defining one input, these values can be copied to all other inputs, making any minor changes that are required after the copy.

• Relate or Trbl Relate: Opens the Relate Window for the current circuit or device. This allows for the programming of outputs, LEDs, relays and control modules to be operated when the input goes into alarm. The Relate button will display all output types that are available depending on the function type of the input. The Trbl Relate button will display only LEDs that can be related. Note: All panel outputs and control modules to be operated must be defined before they can be included in the relates of an input.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R Human

Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.7 Internal Circuits Window

The Internal Circuits Window (see Figure

21 ) allows for the programming of outputs,

LEDs, etc. for the various internal circuits

(functions) of the Control Panel. Internal circuits 0, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 81 and 82 are fire alarm functions while all others are trouble functions. All internal circuits have specific meanings and are stored in the archive of the panel. See Appendix A:

Condition Codes and Zone Numbers for a list of all the internal circuits.

Some of the internal circuits are:

• Internal Circuit 0, General

Alarm : This is the General Alarm

Figure 21: Internal Circuits Window function. General Alarm can be received from an annunciator or from an SE 2000. It can be assigned to one of the Hot

Keys of control panel. General Alarm causes all the bells and strobes on the panel to operate in Evacuation mode. Any additional outputs, LEDs, etc. that require operation are programmed using the Relate button.

• Internal Circuit 81, 1st Stage Alarm: This circuit is activated if the bells and strobes are activated in first stage by an alarm input. Any additional outputs, LEDs, etc. that require operation are programmed using the Relate button. If the bells have been disconnected on the panel, this circuit will not be generated.

• Internal Circuit 82, 2nd Stage Alarm: This circuit is activated if the bells and strobes are activated in the second stage mode by an alarm input or by a time-out. Any additional outputs, LEDs, etc. that require operation are programmed using the Relate button. If the bells have been disconnected on the panel, this circuit will not be generated.

• Internal Circuit 96, Fire Pre-alarm: This circuit is activated by any smoke detector in the auto-verify process or addressable device in alarm during the Retard period. It can be related to an LED to give a visual indication that an alarm is in the verification process.

• Internal Circuit 99, Common Trouble: This circuit is tripped by any internal circuit or trouble condition not associated with an internal circuit that turns on the Common Trouble

LED on the panel. This circuit is used to annunciate common trouble conditions at a

28

MR-2400 Programming Manual remote location. This circuit is not tripped by troubles generated by input circuits or addressable devices. This circuit is not recorded in the archive of the panel.

The Internal Circuits List displays all of the internal circuits for the current Control Panel.

Each line includes the internal circuit number, its description and if relates have been assigned.

• Warning: Some of the internal circuits (eg. checksum) do not have restore signals associated with them. They generally relate to a condition that requires either service work or a reboot of the panel. Any relates assigned to such an internal circuit will have no way to be reset short of re-booting the entire network.

List Entries: This feature allows the user to control the information displayed. Relevant lists items applicable to the current version only. All lists all possible items so that relates made on previous versions may be removed.

The following push buttons are available:

• Exit: Closes the Internal Circuits Window and returns to the Panel Window.

• Reset: Clears all relates associated with the current internal circuit.

• Relate: Opens the Relate Window for the internal circuit. This allows for the programming of outputs, LEDs, relays and control modules to be operated by the internal circuit.

• Copy Relates: Copies the relates from another input to the current internal circuit (see

Figure 20 ). The values of the panel and circuit are required. Press Copy to copy the information. If the function type of the two circuits is different, a requester is presented to confirm the copy.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.8 Relate Window

The Relate Window (see Figure

22 ) allows for the relating of inputs, switches and groups to outputs,

LEDs, relays, etc. These relationships are used by the panel to determine which outputs to operate for alarm and trouble states. Inputs can operate bells/ strobes, LEDs, relays, control modules on any panel in the system and continuous/momentary releasers on the same panel.

Switches can operate relays, LEDs, control modules on any panel in the system and control the day/night sensitivity change of any

Figure 22: Relate Window addressable detector on any panel. The title bar describes the current input point/switch/group and current output panel or annunciator.

Groups is a comma separated list of all the groups that the point is to use for relates. Up to ten groups can be listed. These groups are assigned to the point itself and does not change as the current output panel changes. Relates that are part of the groups are not shown in the Relate

Window but can be shown on the Map Window if so desired.

29

MR-2400 Programming Manual

The Panel List is a list-box located in the top left corner of the window. It lists all the panels, both

Control and Annunciator, that are defined in the system along with their panel message. The highlighted entry in the list is the one that is being related to by the current input. When a different panel is selected, all the controls in the window will change to reflect this. Use the <Backspace > key in order to quickly reposition the current selection to another panel.

The Outputs List shows the programmable outputs of the panel. It is not shown for annunciators. It lists all outputs, along with their definition and current state. The states are *on* for selected, blank for not selected, act if they activated by default, and n/a for not available. A blank definition is for unused outputs. Bell and Strobe outputs can only be selected for Fire Alarm type inputs. If

Complex Releasers are enabled, releasers can have three other states: Fast which operates the releaser immediately regardless of any delay that is programmed in; *A* or *B* which allow for

AND logic. The releaser will not operate until both an A and a B input have been activated. Use the

<space > key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections. Use the

<Backspace > key in order to quickly reposition the current selection to another output.

The Relays List shows the general purpose function relays of the panel. It is not shown for annunciators. Each is listed by number and state. The states are *on* for selected and blank for not selected. Use the <space > key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections. Use the <Backspace > key in order to quickly reposition the current selection to another relay.

The LEDs List shows the LED zones available on the panel or annunciator. This will not be shown if the panel has no LEDs. Each is listed by number and state. The states are *on* for selected, blank for not selected and n/a for not available. Use the <space > key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections. Use the <Backspace > key in order to quickly reposition the current selection to another LED. The actual number of LED zones varies depending upon the panel or annunciator.

The Device List shows the addressable devices that can be related to the current point. For system inputs and groups, it is displayed only if there are any control or relay modules defined for the panel; for switches, it is displayed if there are any addressable detectors, or any control or relay modules defined. Each entry shows the devices’s address (panel.circuit.device), its state and its device message. The states are *on* for selected and blank for not selected. Devices that are not available or are invalid are not shown. Use the <space > key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections.

The Evac check box is an option for Fire Alarm type inputs only. Selecting this option will cause all

Bells and Strobes for this panel to operate in Second Stage (Evacuation) mode. If selected, Bell and Strobe type outputs for this panel will not be selectable.

The Msg Receive check box is an option for annunciators with LCDs only. If marked, this annunciator will receive messages about this input point to display in its Alarm List. If not marked, the annunciator will not receive messages about this input point to display in its Alarm List.

3.0 LCD Programming

3.1 General Comments

A number of items are programmed through the LCD and keypad. This is called the LCD menu. All options are under the PROGRAM option on the Main Menu of the panel. The Main Menu can be recalled to the LCD by pressing <Home > .

Note: The only item that must be programmed from the LCD menu is the Panel ID. This must be done before the database is downloaded.

There are multiple levels of program access. Privilege Level 0 is the base level of operation.

Privilege Level 1 allows access to privileged Hot Key functions and limited programming. Privilege

Level 2 allows programming of almost all system parameters. Higher Privilege Levels are reserved for Secutron's own use and are not discussed here. Certain functions can be assigned to different privilege levels. These functions default to the higher of the two privilege levels.

While programming through the LCD menu, the panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid key is pressed. Programming is done through a series of menus and requester screens. The menus present options to display other menus, show information, or request information (see Figure 23 ). Menus have a ">" or "<" next to the description of each item.

Use the arrow keys on the keypad to move the cursor and press <Enter > to select. In Figure 23 , pressing <Enter > will bring up the Program Menu.

When sufficient time has passed, re-selecting this function will ask for the correct time. The calibration will then be reported. Changing the time using the Time option will abort the calibration.

3.3 Common Relays

This function is restricted to Privilege Level 2. This menu has the following options:

• Disconnect: View or change the relays that can be disconnected by the Common

Disconnect hot key. Selected relays will be marked by an asterisk (*). To change the selection, move the cursor to the desired relay A(larm), or T(rouble) and press <Enter > to change. Select OK when done. <Clear > will return to Program Menu without making changes.

• Test Inhibit: View or change whether common relays are disconnected during Test Mode or not. <Clear > will return to Program Menu without making changes.

3.4 Switches

This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2. View or change the status of any switches.

These switches can be set to On, Off or Auto. The Auto state only applies to switches that have a timer associated with them. The Auto state allows the switch to follow the timer settings. Any changes made are broadcast to the network so that all panels have the same state. Settings are retained by the panel if it is re-booted and the Master Unit will broadcast its settings to the network upon start up. See section 2.3 Switches Window for information on programming what the switch affects.

The menu has the following options:

• Individual: View or change the status of an individual switch. Each switch will be shown in turn. If a switch has no timer, the Auto option is not shown.

• All Off: Force switches into the Off mode. The number displayed is the number of timers that are switched On. This option is shown only if no switches have timers associated with them.

• All Auto: Force all switches with timers to Auto mode. All switches with timers will go into the state dictated by the time. The number displayed is the number of switches with timers forced On or Off. This option has no effect on switches without timers. This option is not shown if no timers are associated with the switches.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

3.5 Addressable

The menu has the following options:

• Reset Max/Min: Clears the stored values for the maximum and minimum values returned by the addressable devices. These values are automatically cleared when the panel reboots.

• Duplicates Check: This will cause an immediate check to see if more than one device is using an address. The panel automatically does this check on the hour.

• LED Mode: This controls how the LEDs on the devices are used. There are three options:

-- OFF/FLASH: The device LEDs are normally off and will flash when an alarm is reported. The flashing LED will be reset when System Reset is pressed.

-- FLASH/ON: The device LEDs flash each time they are polled. They will latch on in

Alarm. The LEDs will be reset when System Reset is pressed. Note: Due to current draw limitations, only the first 5 detectors

1

on a circuit will latch their LEDs. This has no effect on other panel operation.

-- OFF/ON: The LEDs are normally off and will latch on in Alarm. The LEDs will be reset when System Reset is pressed. This option will not be shown if the addressable coprocessor cannot support this mode. Note: Due to current draw limitations, only the first

5 detectors on a circuit will latch their LEDs. This has no effect on other panel operation.

-- RESET : This function resets the LEDs to their off state.

• Sensitivity: This allows for the manual adjustment of the sensitivity of addressable detectors. All devices have a default sensitivity assigned in the database. The detector can be set to the database default value or to one of the pre-defined levels replacing the database values. The range of values varies with device type. These manual values are retained if the panel is re-booted.

-- SELECT: Change the manual sensitivity of addressable detectors. The first screen asks for a circuit and device number. Enter the circuit and device or press <Enter > without entering any number to view the first detector in the database. Each detector will be displayed in turn, showing the current sensitivity and allowing for it to be changed or the next detector to be displayed. Press <Clear > to stop viewing the detector list.

MR-2400 Programming Manual

5.0 Appendix B: Stand-by Battery Calculation

Batteries are designed and manufactured for a specific use. "Standby" is one of these uses. They are rated according to their ability to deliver a steady current for 20 hours ("20 Hour Rating"). A 10

Ah battery is unable to deliver 10 A for 1 hour, however it will deliver ½ A (500 mA) for 20 hours. A car battery is designed to deliver "cranking" power for a short time, (a few hundred Amps for a few minutes). Unfortunately, fire alarm control panels need both of these characteristics, that is, driving a heavy bell load for a relatively short time, at the end of a 24 hour standby current drain. This protection necessitates certain over sizing.

Regardless of the standby calculation and tables, the battery must be at least 150% of the bell load. e.g. A 4 A total bell load necessitates at least 6 A hour battery (in terms of 20 hour rating).

Note: The MR-2400 Control Panel is capable of driving a bell load of 8 A maximum. This restriction must be considered when laying out a bell system.

The standard battery options available for the MR-2400 Control Unit are:

• 4 Ah internal

• 7 Ah internal

• 10 Ah internal

• 24 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet

• 38 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet

• 48 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet (not UL listed)

The components of the MR-2400 Control Panel and other devices have the following typical current draws:

6.0 Appendix C: Service Terminal

The MR-2400 Control Unit and the Addressable Input Module will display information and accept commands via the service terminal port. The information includes initiating circuit configuration, current status of bell, relays, etc., diagnostic information, the Archive, etc. The commands allow for the selection of the information to view, limited programming and basic operation. Certain Control

Unit commands are available only at certain privilege levels. Units will beep once when a valid character is received and three times if an invalid character is received. If a command is not finished within about 10 seconds, the unit will beep three times and will lose any information sent.

The service terminal program provides the information on a number of different screens. When the terminal is first connected, it will be viewing whatever screen was the last viewed. To view Screen

0, which lists all the screens that are available, press

0

<Tab > . Press <Delete > to refresh the screen. Press the <Tab > key to view the next screen. See below for a complete description on the

<Tab > key commands. Certain Control Unit screens are available only at higher privilege levels.

The service terminal of the addressable module is available through the Control Unit's service terminal.

6.1 Control Unit

The Control Unit uses 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit for communication over the serial port. The default baud rate is 9600 bps, but this can be changed to values between 150 and 9600 bps.

All screens have a common status line across the top. It shows, from left to right, the current time, the current date, the current privilege level, the panel number, the current screen number and name. All available screens are listed and described below along with any key commands valid only on that screen. To view a particular screen, enter

7.0 Appendix D: Table of Reporting Codes

The following tables contain automatic Contact ID and SIA format reporting codes.

Contact ID: The first digit (in parentheses) will automatically be sent by the control. The second two digits are to indicate specific information about the signal. For example, if zone 1 is a fire zone point, you could program the event code as [1A]. The central station would receive the following:

*FIRE* - FIRE ALARM - 1where the “1” indicates which zone went into alarm.

SIA Format – Level 2: The SIA format used in this product follows the Level 2 specifications of the

SIA Digital Communication Standard – October 1997. This format will send the account code along with its data transmission. The transmission would look similar to the following at the receiver:

N Ri00 FA 01

N = New Event

Ri00 = System Event

FA = Fire Alarm

1.0 Unit Operation

1.1 Power Up Sequence

The power up sequence of the panel is started in the following ways: power is applied to the panel; the hard reboot button underneath the terminal strip is pressed; a Network Reboot command is issued; or the panel has a fault that triggers the internal watch-dog.

The LCD will first display "INITIALIZING MEMORY PLEASE WAIT". The panel will not respond to key presses or to zone activity. Once this step is done the panel will start to beep (the buzzer does not sound after a Network Reboot). Press Acknowledge to silence the panel.

Next the panel will display the message "LOADING DATABASE PLEASE WAIT". At this time, the panel will respond to key presses and communications, but not to input circuit conditions.

When the initialization is complete, the Main Menu will be displayed on the LCD. At this time the panel is fully operational.

1.2 Types of Inputs

There are a number of types of inputs that can be used in the system. Each has different uses and limitations. They are:

• Alarm: This type of input is the normal inputs to the system from smoke detectors, heat detectors, etc. They are required to activate bells and/or strobes, as well as an LED if there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system. They can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, as well as releasers on the same panel. It displays

**ALARM** in the Alarm List.

• Pull Station: This type of input is for pull stations. They are required to activate bells and/ or strobes, as well as an LED if there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system. They can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, as well as releasers on the same panel. This type cannot have a retard time. It displays **PULL STATION** in the

Alarm List.

• Waterflow: This type of input is for water flow detectors. They are required to activate bells and/or strobes, as well as an LED if there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system.

They can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, as well as releasers on the same panel. This type displays **WATERFLOW** in the Alarm List. Through programming, Waterflow type alarms can make the bell circuits they activate to be nonsilenceable.

• Supervisory: This type of input is for items such as Shut-Off valves and Pressure sensors for sprinkler systems. They are required to operate an LED if there is an annunciator with

LEDs in the system. They cannot operate bells/strobes but can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, and releasers on the same panel.

• Halt: This type of input can only stop the operation of a releaser type output. An LED if there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system is required for annunciation of the Halt function. It will use the supervisory LED. Note: Use of this type of input must be limited access to maintain UL listing.

• Abort: This type of input can only delay the operation of a releaser type output. The Abort function maintains the current state of the releaser. The delay timer will continue to run until 10 seconds are left. The releaser will resume normal operation as soon as the input restores. If there is an annunciator with LEDs in the system, an LED is required for annunciation of the abort function. It will use the supervisory LED.

• Monitor: This type of input is used to monitor the action of items such as dampers, door, fans, etc. The supervisory LED is used. Monitor inputs can operate relays and control modules.

• Non-Reporting: These are non-latching inputs. They use the supervisory LED for annunciation. They can operate only relays and control modules. The LEDs, relays and

1.3 Status Display

The status display is the top centre section of the front panel. It is visible through the front door. It consists of the common alarm LED, common supervisory LED, common trouble LED and

AC power LED. The LCD will show the current time.

The common alarm (red) and supervisory (amber or yellow) LEDs will flash with any new alarm or supervisory signal. The common trouble (yellow) LED will flash with any new zone trouble or a new panel trouble, such as low battery, bell trouble, etc. The AC power (green) LED is lit if AC power is on. The common trouble LED will flash rapidly if there is a condition that requires a reboot of the system, such as memory overflow, database change, database mismatch, etc. The buzzer will also beep at 2 second intervals.

The LCD will show the current time, in 24 hour format, while the Main Menu is displayed. The colon flashes to indicate that the processor is still running. The time will flash if it has not been set since the unit was last re-booted. The time will be replaced by dashes if there is a condition that requires a re-boot of the system, such as memory overflow, database change, database mismatch, etc. If the unit has a privilege entered, the privilege will be displayed instead of the time.

1.4 Buzzer

control modules will follow the non-reporting input's status. The LEDs, relays and control modules operated by non-reporting inputs cannot also be operated by Fire, Supervisory or

Abort type inputs.

The buzzer gives audible indication of any conditions in the panel. It may sound in any of four modes. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the buzzer. ( Acknowledge will need to be pressed again to latch flashing LEDs.)

The four buzzer modes are:

• Steady: This indicates any new fire alarm conditions. This mode can be disabled in the database.

• Fast: This indicates any critical failures that must be attended to. These failures can include, but are not limited to memory overflow, network reboot required, database mismatch, etc. The pattern in 50ms on/off.

• Medium: This indicates any new supervisory conditions. The pattern is 200ms on/off.

• Slow: This indicates any new trouble conditions. The pattern in 500ms on/off.

1.5 Operator Keys

These are located below the Status Display. They are visible through the front door. There are 10 keys, each with red and green LED (some keys may have yellow instead of red LEDs). The LEDs are used to display function status. The individual keys are located under the rectangles marked

PRESS, not under the key description. The key assignments are assigned by the database. There are fixed placement function keys as shown in Figure 2 . The default layout is shown in Figure 1 .

The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid

(unavailable) key is pressed. The panel will record every hotkey pressed in the archive.

Figure 1: Default Key Assignment

The keys and their functions are as follows:

Press System Reset to reset the smoke detectors. The yellow LED also flashes if the ground fault relay is activated. Press System Reset to deactivate the ground fault relay to check for restores and additional ground faults. If ground faults remain, the relay will be re-activated after 5 to 30 seconds.

Pressing System Reset with no LEDs flashing will operate any relays that are not used by the system and deactivate any Aux Power outputs. The time they remain open is determined by the Duration time programmed. If the Duration is 0, the relay or Aux Power output will not operate.

Notes:

1.

The system cannot be reset until all circuits and devices are reset.

2.

If both LEDs are flashing, the green LED function has precedence.

3.

The green LED will remain flashing after System Reset is pressed until addressable devices have had their LEDs reset.

Prevents the automatic operation of second stage operation. This applies only to panels with ALERT or STAGED type bell systems. For ALERT systems, pressing the Second Stage Inhibit will prevent the panel from going into second stage. For

STAGED systems, it will prevent the system from going to the next stage. Second

Stage Inhibit has no effect on an EVAC type bell system. The green LED will flash when Second Stage Inhibit is available, and the red LED will flash when it has been activated.

MR-2400 Operator’s Manual

Releaser Disconnect, Relay Disconnect, Signal Disconnect, Common Disconnect and Test Mode can be made to time out automatically after 4 hours. Releaser Disconnect, Relay Disconnect,

Signal Disconnect , Test Mode, and Common Disconnect all use the same privilege level.

1.6 Alarm List

The Alarm List contains all the current Alarms, Supervisory Conditions and Troubles. Each panel can be configured for one of three modes of operation: In Local mode, each panel only logs events generated from devices that are directly connected to it. For example, a trouble generated on

Panel #1 will not be reflected in the alarm list of Panel #2. Each alarm list only stores locally generated events. In Master mode, the panel defined as the master collects all network data and maintains a list of all events generated in every panel. If set to Global, every panel displays all other panel’s events.

In all modes, the first/last entry of highest priority will be shown, instead of the Main Menu, if there are any entries in the Alarm List. Alarms are the highest priority, Supervisory Conditions are the

2nd priority and Troubles the 3rd priority and Non-reporting signals are the lowest priority. The

LCD back light will turn on if any new entry is received. The back light will automatically turn off in

5 minutes (30 seconds if no AC) if there is no activity.

Each entry in the Alarm List consists of one or two screens. Each entry will include an event screen giving a short description of the event. A device message screen is shown as required.

To view additional entries in the Alarm List when an entry is showing, press the Scroll button on the keypad. This will display the next/previous entry of the highest priority showing the device message, if any, otherwise the event screen is shown. Press Scroll again to view the next/ previous entry. Use the <Up Arrow> and <Down Arrow> to rotate between screens of the event.

One can also look at the next entry using the <Right Arrow> or the previous one with the <Left

Arrow> . A summary screen will be shown when all entries have been shown. To view the summary screen directly, press <Clear> at any time.

For more control in viewing the Alarm List, when the summary screen is showing press <Enter> .

Options for viewing All, Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble and Non-Reporting entries are provided. The display can begin with the First or Last entry. Once viewing the events, one can look at the next one using the <Right Arrow> or the previous one with the <Left Arrow> . <Enter> will act as either <Left Arrow> or <Right Arrow> , whichever was pressed last. <Up Arrow> and

<Down Arrow> will rotate between pages of the event.

While viewing entries in the Alarm List, the currently displayed input can be Bypassed by pressing the <#> key on the keypad. This will cause the panel to consider the input to be in a normal condition.

Note: Bypass is a privileged function. A passcode will have to be entered in the system before a

Bypass will be accepted.

The event screen of an entry shows one of two forms:

1.

Line 1: time, sequence number, and

Condition Code

Line 2: date and Zone Number

Line 4: description of event (alarm, trouble, ground, restore, etc.)

The summary screen shows either the number of alarm, supervisory and trouble entries in the

Alarm List (shown) or the number of supervisory, trouble and non-reporting entries if there are non-reporting entries and no alarm entries.

1.7 LCD and Keypad

The LCD is located in the top centre of the front panel. The keypad is to the right of the LCD. They are used to view the status of the panel, to view the latest events, to set the date and time and to enter a passcode. The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed, and three times if an invalid or unavailable key is pressed. The LCD back light will turn on when any key is pressed. The back light will automatically turn off in 5 minutes (30 seconds if no AC) if there is no activity.

Information is presented to the user through a series of menus and information screens. The menus present options to display other menus, show information, or request information. The Main

Menu is displayed under normal conditions. If a privilege level has been entered into the panel, it will be displayed on the Main Menu as well instead of the time. Menus have a ">" or "<" next to the description of each item. Use the arrow keys on the keypad to move the cursor and press

<Enter> to select. <Clear> returns to the previous menu without changing any information and

<Home> returns to the Main Menu without changing any information.

The second line of the display is a clock which shows the current time in 24 hour format. If a privilege level other than zero has been entered, that privilege level will be shown instead of the time. The flashing colon shows that the panel is functioning correctly. All the digits of the clock flash if the time has not been set after a Hard reboot of the panel; also if the time is not set, the panel will show a common trouble. If any memory error occurs (Program Checksum Error,

Database Mismatch, FIFO Overflow, etc.) the clock will display 4 dashes instead of the time. The buzzer will also beep rapidly to indicate the memory error. The clock will also display 4 dashes if any configuration parameter is changed which requires a Hard reboot.

The Main Menu has the following selections:

• Status: Displays the current status of various parts of the panel. The following options are available:

-- More: Displays the next screen of menu options. When the last screen of the menu is displayed the next screen will be the first one again.

-- Misc. Trouble: Displays any troubles with the bells, releasers, AC power, batteries, etc., that are not shown elsewhere. Only sections in trouble will be displayed. Press <Enter> to go to the next screen. See section 2.2 for a list of all possible messages.

-- Alarm List: Displays the Alarm List under manual control. See Alarm List above, Using the Keypad.

-- Addressable: This menu has the following options:

Select: Displays the current status of a single device. The device address is entered into the screen saying "circuit or circuit.device". If only a circuit number is entered, the first programmed device on that circuit will be displayed. If <Enter> is pressed without any entry, the first addressable device will be displayed. <Clear> will remove

7

MR-2400 Operator’s Manual any values entered. If there is no value entered, <Clear> will return to the Status

Menu. If the selected device is not in the database, the next device in the database is shown.

The display shows the device address in the top left corner and the current condition codes in the top right corner (see section 2.0 for a description of the condition codes).

The second line shows the headings for the third line, which contains the analog values sent from the device. Press <Enter> to view the next device or <Clear> to get the address input screen.

Print Sensors: Prints the analog value for every addressable smoke and thermal detector. This is the value of the detector at the time the command is issued.

Identification: Displays a sequence of screens that provide the program and version, the panel's serial number, database version, etc. Press <Enter> to go to the next screen.

-- Print Database: This function is restricted to Level 1. Print the current configuration

(values entered through the LCD menu) and downloaded database of the panel to a printer connected to the panel's printer port. The printer port is at the bottom of the main assembly and is the one on the right.

-- Print Archive: This function is restricted to Level 1. Prints all or part of the history. A selection menu is presented to select which kinds of events to print. The choices are: All,

Alarms, Supervisory, Trouble, Monitor, Bypass and Non-reporting.

Each entry consists of one or two lines. The information provided on the first line, from the left, is:

1. Event Number

2. Time (24 Hour Clock)

3. Date (MM/DD/YY Format)

4. Condition Code and Zone Number (see section 2.1)

5. Description

A second line will be printed for addressable devices if a message exists in the database.

This history is sent to the printer port(s) and to the service terminal port if Screen 1 is active. Screen 1 of the service terminal is a copy of all items sent to the printer port.

• Archive: The archive is a list of the last 900 events (approx.). These include all signals, programming changes, time/date changes, etc., that have occurred. Test signals may or may not be recorded but "Test On" and "Test Off" are. The archive is not lost when there is a loss of both AC and battery power. Each entry includes a short description of the event, and the date and time of occurrence for events occurring at or to the panel. There may be a second screen including information from the database. You can start by looking at either the last event (newest) or the first event (oldest). When viewing the events, scroll to the next one using the <Right Arrow> or the previous one with the <Left Arrow> .

<Enter> will act as the last Left or Right arrow key pressed. <Up Arrow> and <Down

Arrow> will flip between pages of the event.

The screen of a single screen event shows:

Line 1: time, sequence number, and date

Line 2: Condition Code and Zone Number (see section 2.1)

Press <Enter> to accept the time typed. <Clear> will remove any digits typed. If no digits are displayed, <Clear> will return to the Clock Menu. A time change greater than 5 minutes is recorded in the history.

• Passcode: Allows access to privileged functions. Enter the four digit passcode. Asterisk will be displayed instead of digits. A passcode of zero removes all privileges. <Clear> will remove any digits typed. If no digits have been typed, <Clear> will return to the Main

Menu. Privileged access will last two hours before the panel removes all privileges. The panel will beep once if a valid passcode is entered or three times if an invalid passcode is entered. An invalid passcode will not change the current privilege of the panel.

1.8 Silent Walk Test

The Silent Walk Test allows for single person testing of the system. This is done by providing an audio output that can be used by a radio with a microphone input. The system will produce tones through the audio output jack to give the inspector a positive indication of system behaviour. The audio jack should be connected to the Mic In or Line In of a radio. Ensure that the radio is set to automatically broadcast whenever a signal is sent to it. Alarm and supervisory conditions produce a 1500 Hz tone, trouble conditions produce a 1000 Hz tone and ground conditions produce a 500

Hz tone. Two short pulses are given for a new condition and one long pulse for a restore. Tones are generated for input circuits only. The output circuits are not part of the walk test.

To activate the walk test, first connect the radio to the audio output jack. Then activate the walk test by pressing the Test Mode key. The red LED next to Test Mode will flash while the Test Mode is active. Addressable devices will need to be chosen for testing. While selected for testing, devices will not activate relays, control modules, bells, releasers or send signals to monitoring stations on port 3. Any LEDs assigned to the test inputs will follow the device state. See the section on the Test Mode key (page 4) for more information on Test Mode. All devices not chosen for testing will operate as normal.

If a printer is attached to the printer port, a print-out of all events received by the Unit can be obtained for cross-referencing with the test procedures. Test signals will be marked as such in the print-out.

2.2 Miscellaneous Troubles

This is a list of all possible messages that can be displayed by Miscellaneous Trouble on the LCD.

Only those conditions that are in trouble will be shown. Some of the messages are always displayed if the panel is in Test Mode.

Message Description

PROGRAM checksum

EEPROM checksum

EEPROM failure not enough EEPROM to save addressable settings

DATABASE checksum program mismatch

The memory chip containing the operating program has an error in it.

Reloading the operating program will correct this problem. If this error recurs, please contact Secutron Technical Support.

The memory chip containing the configuration information has an error in it.

Changing a value of an item set through the LCD menu will cause the panel to create a new checksum. If this error recurs, please contact Secutron Technical

Support.

The memory chip containing the configuration information is not working correctly. It will need to be erased. Erasing the EEPROM will lose ALL information in the EEPROM. This includes the configuration information, the panel serial number and the archive. Be sure to record this information before you erase the EEPROM. Please contact Technical Support to report this error.

The panel has a 64k EEPROM. The addressable device bypasses and the manual operation of control modules requires a 256k EEPROM for the settings to be retained when the panel is rebooted. Note: This will not cause a common trouble on the panel.

The memory chip containing the downloaded database has an error in it.

Reloading the database will correct this problem. If this error keeps occurring, the unit will need replacement.

The version number stored in the EEPROM is different from the version number in the program. Either reload the old program or erase the EEPROM.

Erasing the EEPROM will require the operator to contact Technical Support.

no database loaded

The panel does not have a database in memory. Load a database into the panel.

MR-2900 Installation Manual

1.0 Technical Information

1.1 General

The MR-2900 Fire Alarm Control Unit provides capability for up to 24 Input Circuits, 4 or 8 Polarity

Reversing Bell Circuits, network capabilities (with use of an MR-2910 Network Board) and 4

General Purpose Form "C" Relays as well as system operated relays for alarm, trouble and supervisory indication. If the MR-2900 is ordered with a printer, it is ordered under the panel number MR-2920.

The Control Unit can be networked to provide additional input circuits, visual zones, bell circuits and relays. Up to 254 Units (Control and/or Annunciator) can be connected to form the network.

The network is a Style 7 (Data Communications Link, Redundant (DCLR)) loop.

There are two main operating programs available for use in the Control Panel. The MR1 program only works with a stand alone panel and conventional input circuits. All programming is done through the LCD and keypad. The MR2 program handles all variations. Input circuit programming and special features, such as releasing function, day/night mode, etc., are done from an externally generated database, while system parameters are programmed from the LCD and keypad. The

LCD display is the same for the two programs except for those areas dealing with programming.

The basic MR-2900 Fire Alarm Control Unit consists of Main Circuit Board (MR-2931), Terminal

Board (MR-2926 or MR-2925), Annunciator Strip (MR-2902), Power Supply (MR-2905), Door

Assembly (MR-2972) and Back Box (MR-2971).

1.2 Main Circuit Board

The Main Circuit Board (MR-2931) provides system controls and visual indications, and contains the system processor, programming port, printer port and non-volatile memory for system firmware. Software is installed on the main board for critical functions such as programmable logic and timing functions and non-critical functions, such as custom zone and devices messages. All jumpers on the board are for diagnostic and test purposes. There are 6 LEDs in the middle of the right edge for diagnostic purposes.

The visual display consists of a series of LEDs for common system indication of power, alarm, supervisory, and trouble. An LED clock display is provided to display real time. The flashing colon of the clock provides visual indication of system processor operation. The clock also displays dashes if a major error/change occurs. When this happens, the system requires a Hard reboot. A

Hard reboot is done by pressing and releasing the button inside the top of the inner door assembly.

The Circuit Board has an 80-character alphanumeric LCD. It provides descriptions for inputs, display of archived events, first/last device in alarm, custom messages, etc. The keypad is used to scroll through the display.

There are three connectors on the bottom of the Main Circuit Board, an audio output jack, a 9-pin service terminal port and a 25-pin printer port. The ports are discussed below. The audio jack produces various tones in accordance with the system.

Communication Ports

The Control Unit has 6 communication ports available:

• Port #1- network (Proprietary)

• Port #2- network (Proprietary)

• Port #3- general purpose (Proprietary)

• Port #4- service terminal (RS232 - DB9)

• Port #5- printer interface, Parallel (IBM/Centronics - DB25)

• Port #6- serial printer interface (RS-232)

1

MR-2900 Installation Manual

Ports 1 to 3 use the terminal strip on the Terminal Board for connection. Ports 4 and 5 use the connectors mounted on the bottom of the Main Circuit Board. Port 6 uses a connector on the top of the Terminal Board. It is for the optional factory installed MR-2920 strip printer.

The system network ports, Ports 1 and 2, allow for the networking of units. Up to 254 units (Control and/or Annunciator) can be networked together. The network wiring is a Style 7 (DCLR) loop layout. An MR-2910 Series Network Board is required by each Control Unit to use these ports.

Port 3 is available for different uses depending upon the operating program loaded in the panel.

Different uses require different variants of the operating program. Typical uses are a central station connection or remote LED annunciation of system status. The operation of this port is software defined and requires the use of an MR-2109-x communications board. The MR-2109-3 Driver is for communication to MR-2614 MR-2644, and the following dialers MR28-9001, MR28-9002,

MR28-9801, MR28-9804 and MR295101 (henceforth referred to as Dialer). The MR-2109-4 Driver is for communication to the MV-2700 voice system.

The service terminal port, Port 4, permits the downloading and uploading of custom software, such as device messages and I/O functions. The default baud rate is 9600 bps. It is intended for temporary connection to provide supplementary information during servicing of the panel.

The parallel printer port, Port 5, connects to any standard parallel printer. The system prints every occurrence as it happens. It is intended for temporary connection and can be used for system commissioning and testing by producing a printed log of received events. This can then be checked against a log of tests performed to confirm operation.

The serial printer interface, Port 6, is for the optional factory installed strip printer.

Note: If either of the printers or the service terminal printer screen is stalled, it causes the other printers to stall.

1.3 Front Panel

The system controls consist of 12 system switches and a 20 position alphanumeric keypad. The 12 system switches are factory defined for operations such as alarm acknowledge, signal silence and system reset.

The 20-position keypad is used for technical functions, system/detector maintenance, history recall, and device/circuit disarming and manual operation of addressable output modules, relay modules and bell circuits.

1.4 Input Circuits

There are seven classes of conventional input circuits supported by the Control Unit. Not all classes are supported by all the Conventional Input Circuit

Modules. See Table 1 to determine which circuits are supported by each module.

• "Class A" - This is a 4 wire supervised circuit supporting normally open contact initiating devices. Two-wire smoke detectors are not supported by this type of circuit. A "Class A" circuit requires two of the input circuits, one for the high loop and one for the low loop.

• "Class B" - This is a 2 wire supervised circuit supporting only normally open contact initiating

2

MR-2900 Installation Manual devices and using a 470

Ω

End-of-Line Resistor, model T301-9020. Two-wire smoke detectors cannot be used on this type of circuit.

• Smoke Detector - This is a supervised circuit supporting two-wire smoke detectors only.

Both "Class B", using the Resistor (T301-9017), and "Class A" wiring is available depending upon the Input Circuit Module used (see ' 1.5 next page). Contact initiating devices cannot be used with this type of circuit. A short is reported as a trouble, not as an

Alarm.

• Smoke Detector and Contact Device - This is a supervised circuit supporting two-wire smoke detectors and normally open contact initiating devices. This circuit is wired the same as a Smoke Detector circuit. Shorts on this type of circuit are reported as Alarms, not as troubles.

• Normally Open - This is an unsupervised 2-wire circuit. Normally Open circuits are always Supervisory circuits. This circuit is listed by UL for connection to other control equipment through less than 20 feet of conduit.

• Normally Closed - This is an unsupervised 2-wire circuit. This circuit shall not be used to monitor fire alarm or supervisory initiating devices. This circuit is listed by UL for connection to other control equipment through less than 20 feet of conduit.

Note: The Control Unit shows spurious alarms and troubles due to any mismatches between the programmed circuit classes and the actual field wiring.

There are two classes of addressable input circuits supported by the Control Unit:

• "Class A" (Style 6) - This is a 4 wire circuit supporting addressable detectors and modules. It requires two input circuits, one for signal out and one for signal return. Up to

99 detectors and up to 99 modules can be connected to the circuit.

• "Class B" (Style 4) - This is a 2 wire circuit supporting addressable detectors and modules. Up to 99 detectors and up to 99 modules can be connected to the circuit.

Note: Applicable codes and standards as well as good engineering practices must be considered with regards to the number of addressable devices connected to one addressable circuit.

Isolation modules (MRI-500X) should be used whenever more than one fire zone is protected by one addressable circuit.

1.5 Input Circuits Modules

There are six types of Input Circuit Modules. Table 1 list circuit classes are supported by each conventional module.

Conventional Input Modules

• Model MR-2908 - supports five classes of conventional circuits. All circuits are current limited to 10 mA. Note: This board does not support 2-wire smoke detectors.

• Model MR-2918 - supports two wire smoke detector circuits and Normally Open circuits.

All circuits are current limited to 80 mA. Note: This board does not support “Class B” Endof-Line Resistor circuits or Normally Closed circuits.

• Model MR-2928 - supports all seven classes of conventional circuits. Smoke detector circuits are current limited to 80 mA while all other circuits are current limited to 10 mA.

Note: This board does not support 2-wire smoke detectors on a "Class A" circuit.

• Model MR-2938 - supports only "Class A" 2-wire smoke detectors circuits. All circuits are current limited to 80 mA.

All Input Circuit Modules control eight of the input circuits, one of circuits 1 to 8, 9 to 16 or 17 to 24.

Any of the Input Modules can be used to control circuits 9 to 16, and circuits 17 to 24. Addressable

Input Modules do not physically fit in the location for circuits 1 to 8.

Note: The panel comes from the factory with the installed boards already programmed. The panel only allows programming of the circuit classes that each board supports.

Ground fault conditions occurring on the input circuits are indicated as to the circuit of origin.

1.6 Terminal Board

Field connections are terminated on the Terminal Board, which in addition to terminal blocks contains a portion of the circuitry for output circuits and relays. Some of this circuitry is on a plug-in board (MR-2927) on the underside of the Terminal Board. This plug-in board is factory installed.

The Terminal Board includes connections for 24 input circuits, 4 or 8 supervised polarity reversing bell circuits, 4 general purpose Form "C" relays, 3 system Form "C" relays and 2 auxiliary power outputs. There may be a ten-pin cable connector on the top of the Terminal Board for connection of the optional factory installed printer.

There are two versions of the Terminal Board. The MR-2926 Terminal Board has 8 Class B bells circuits. The MR-2925 Terminal Board has 4 Class A bell circuits. The two versions are identical otherwise.

The bell circuits are rated at 1.5 A @ 24 VDC. They are power-limited and protected with solid state fuses. ( Note: Maximum system loading and stand-by battery power must be considered when determining actual bell loading.) A 10 k end-of-line resistor, T301-9008, is required for supervision. Bell circuits are supervised for open, short and ground fault conditions. The panel activates bell circuits in two modes: Evacuation, which activates the bells continuously or with the temporal pattern as specified in ANSI S3.41 and ISO 8201 Audible Emergency Evacuation Signal ;

Alert, which activates the bells in a repeated 1 2 s on and 3 s off. Through programming, bell circuits can be used for releaser and releasing type functions.

The general purpose Form "C" relay operation is program defined. The relays have a power factor of .35 and are rated at 0.6A @ 30VAC / 2.0A @ 30VDC. The system defined Form "C" relays are for Alarm, Supervisory and Trouble indication. These relays have a power factor of .35 and are rated 1.0A @ 24VDC / 0.5A @ 30VAC. The Trouble relay is normally energized so that loss of both

4

MR-2900 Installation Manual

AC power and battery power is indicated. The N.O. and N.C. markings on the Trouble relay refer to this energized state.

The operation of the general purpose relays and bell/releasing circuits is totally program defined. It is possible to program the activation of circuits to any zone, group of zones, device, group of devices and to further inhibit the operation for a specifiable period of time. Any relays not programmed for use in either the database (MR2) or LCD menu (MR1) are available for auxiliary power reset, i.e. the relay toggles for a programmable time when the Reset key is pressed provided the programmed time is a value other than zero.

The auxiliary power outputs provide 24 VDC @ 135 mA each. They are supervised for shorts only.

Any load attached to the auxiliary power outputs have to be considered when calculating stand-by battery size.

1.7 Annunciator Strip

The Annunciator Board (MR-2902) contains 24 sets of zone indicating LEDs. Individual LEDs are provided to display alarm, supervisory and trouble conditions by zone. The LED functions, from the left, are: Alarm (red), Supervisory (amber or yellow) and Trouble (yellow). The LEDs flash on status change and go to steady on acknowledge. The trouble LEDs turn on for both open circuit and ground fault with the specific fault indicated on the LCD.

1.8 Power Supply

The Power Supply (MR-2905) is rated at 8A unregulated, providing the system with primary DC power. It is complete with a battery charger rated at 2 A and battery supervision circuitry. The power supply and battery are located within the control unit back box.

Battery supervision uses true dynamic supervision circuitry to simulate a load condition approximately every 90 seconds to ensure that the battery is capable of handling the system load requirements on loss of primary power.

If the battery voltage drops below 18.5V it is disconnected to protect against damage from a deep discharge.

The battery charger is temperature compensating. The constant used is -0.044 V/C.

A second compartment adjacent to the power supply compartment is provided for 120 VAC terminations.

Note: Never disconnect or reconnect the batteries while AC power is off.

1.9 Enclosure

The enclosure (MR-2971/MR-2972) for MR-2900 Control Unit consists of a back box complete with power supply, inner door assembly complete with main control board, and outer door assembly. The back box and door assemblies are fabricated from 1/16 " steel. The outer door includes tempered glass window, hinge, and lock assembly. The back box provides necessary

Annunciator Units are connected the same as the Control Unit.

Wiring is polarity sensitive.

Notes:

1.

Ensure that only one COM 2 is connected to each COM

1. If two or more are connected, the network segment does not work.

2.

The wire length limit for RS-232 is 20 feet (6m) in conduit, in the same room. For systems using modems, this is the maximum distance between the panel and the modem.

MR-2614, MR-2644, MR-2801-MR,MR295104 and MR295101 Wiring

The MR-2614 and MR-2644 Annunciators, the MR-2801-MR Reverse Polarity module and the MR295101MR Dialer are connected to the panel by 4 wires, 2 for power and 2 for communications. The communications wiring is polarity sensitive. An example of the wiring is shown in Figure 27. Up to eight of each type of annunciator and either one dialer or one reverse polarity module can be connected to the MR-2900. If more than one

MR-2614 is used, the 3.9k

Ω

resistor across the MR-2614 terminals should be removed from all but the last MR-2614. The MR-2900 panel requires that the MR-2109-3 communications board be installed. The

Figure 27: MR-2614, MR-2644, MR-2801-MR, and MR295102 Wiring maximum length of communications wiring is 900m (3000 ft) using 22 AWG. The maximum length of power wiring is 300m (1000 ft) using 18 AWG.

MR-2900 Installation Manual

5.0 Appendix A: Stand-by Battery Calculation

5.1 General

Batteries are designed and manufactured for a specific use. "Standby" is one of these uses. They are rated according to their ability to deliver a steady current for 20 hours ("20 Hour Rating"). A 10

Ah battery is unable to deliver 10 A for 1 hour, however it does deliver 2 A (500 mA) for 20 hours.

A car battery is designed to deliver "cranking" power for a short time, (a few hundred Amps for a few minutes). Unfortunately, fire alarm control panels need both of these characteristics, that is, driving a heavy bell load for a relatively short time, at the end of a 24 hour standby current drain.

This protection necessitates certain over sizing.

Regardless of the standby calculation and tables, the battery must be at least 150% of the bell load. e.g. A 4 A total bell load necessitates at least 6 A hour battery (in terms of 20 hour rating).

Note: The MR-2900 Control Panel is capable of driving a bell load of 8 A maximum. This restriction must be considered when laying out a bell system.

The standard battery options available for the MR-2900 Control Unit are: a) 4 Ah internal, b) 7 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, c) 10 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, d) 24 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, e) 38 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, f) 48 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet (not UL listed).

The components of the MR-2900 Control Panel and other devices have the following typical current draws:

MR-2900 92 mA + 5 mA per LED (includes MR-2931,

MR-2905 and MR-2902 boards)

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by

AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays,

55

MR-2900 Installation Manual breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority Having

Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

1.0 Operation and Programming Concepts

Warnings: Before Programming

1.

All applicable codes and standards should be considered when programming the Control

Unit.

2.

The Control Unit continues to monitor input circuits and devices and acts according to the current program settings if an alarm is received while it is being programmed.

3.

Loading a new database erases the current database before loading the new database. If the new database is not loaded after the erasure, the panel will not operate.

4.

The database internal revision number included must match the number required by the

MR2 program, otherwise a Database Mismatch trouble condition is generated. This condition disables the panel until a correct MR2 program is loaded.

5.

The database must be completely loaded for it to be considered valid. The program keeps track if the last database load was valid/complete or not. An invalid database load disables the panel until a valid database load is done.

1.1 General Comments

There are two different programs available for use in the Control Panel:

• The MR1 program only works with a stand alone panel and conventional input circuits. All programming is done through the LCD and keypad. This is not discussed here; see the

MR1 Programming Manual for a discussion of MR1 programming.

• The MR2 program handles all variations. Input circuit programming is done from a database, while system parameters are programmed from the LCD and keypad. The programs and their port 3 usages are: MR2-x: old SE 2000 protocol; MR2-xA: MR-2614 annunciator, MR-2644 annunciator, MR-2801-MR Reverse Polarity module, and MR28-

9001, MR28-9002, MR28-9801, MR28-9804, and MR295101 Dialler. Note that these

PIDS will henceforth be referred to as Dialler; MR2-xB: new SE 2000 protocol (device level); MR2-xG: GRID; MR2-xE: MV-2700 Voice Evacuation panel. MR2-7y programs are for MR-2931 based systems and MR2-3y programs are for MR-2921 based systems.

Due to programming and hardware limitations, units using the MR-2901C and MR-2921 main circuit boards may not have some of the LCD options that are listed here.

The MR2 program uses a database for input circuit programming. This database includes the conventional circuit definitions, addressable devices on-line, and the Zone LEDs, Bells, Releasers,

Functions Relays and Control Modules activated by the conventional circuits and addressable devices. This database is created and downloaded from an IBM compatible computer using the

Modul-R Human Interface (MHI) program. Refer to the Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor for instructions on downloading the database.

Note: All communications are stopped during the database load. This will cause trouble to be recorded by those units that are normally communicating with the panel.

The use of Port 3 on the panel is handled by loading different versions of the operating program.

Each different protocol has its own operating program. If an incorrect operating program is detected, a Miscellaneous Trouble is generated, but the panel will continue to work except for the

Port 3 functions.

MR-2900 Programming Manual

1.2 Networks

General

The MR-2900 can be incorporated into a network including other MR-2900 panels, MR-2200 panels and MR-2944 annunciators. Though up to 254 panels and annunciators can be supported by the network, such a network would probably be too large to properly maintain. The network can be setup for single building or multiple building operation.

The basic layout of the network is a single loop (see Figure 1 ).

Each panel and annunciator has a unique ID. There is no requirement that the IDs be sequential or that they start with

1. The master panel can be any fire panel in the network. The panels work in a peer-to-peer fashion. This means that each panel is responsible for the programming of the inputs

Figure 1: Typical Network Layout connected to it. The master panel does not control the network, but is a central location for information. Information is exchanged over the network via two basic means: a) specific frames, which are from one panel to another, and b) broadcast frames, which are from one panel to all others.

Notes:

1.

For correct operation of the network, all panels and annunciators need to be loaded with the same version of operating programs and with the same database. If changes are made to the database, it is recommended that ALL panels and annunciators be reloaded.

2.

When panels and annunciators are first installed, the panel ID must be entered into it before loading the database.

The special functions of the master panel are: a) synchronize the clocks on the network by broadcasting the date and time at 3:30am every day; this means that only the master panel of a network requires that its clock be calibrated; b) maintain a network alarm list; c) transmit all signals from the network to a monitoring location; d) operate its common/municipal relays in accordance with the network condition.

Feature Operation

The following are the various types of frames that are sent on the network.

Commands & Restores

These specific frames are sent when a device in alarm requires operation of outputs at another unit. These commands are for the bells, relays, control modules, device messages and LEDs.

When the device itself restores, the restore commands are sent right away so that the other panels know that they can be reset. Anything operated will stay latched until the Reset key is pressed.

Hotkey and Hotkey LED Operation

If a unit has its hotkey routing set for specific panels only, it will send Acknowledge, Reset, Signal

Silence and Second Stage Inhibit to these panels as specific frames. If hotkey routing is Global in the database, these are sent as broadcast frames.

If a panel’s function keys are sent to other panels, those panels will send commands to the panel to have it turn on and off the hot key LEDs. This is so that there is indication that the key function

2

MR-2900 Programming Manual has become available. This will cause the LEDs to continue flashing after the key is pressed until the frame is received to turn off the LED.

Time/Date Change

This broadcast frame is sent by a panel or annunciator if the time or date is changed. The master panel also will send both a date and time change frame at 3:30am every day to synchronize all the clocks in the network.

Manual Switch Operation

If the state of any of the 16 software switches is changed manually at any panel, this change is broadcast to all other panels. The software switches are a system resource.

Network Reset

If a Network Reset command is initiated at a panel, it is broadcast normally and then the panel will reboot itself. Upon receiving the Network Reset command, a panel will pass it on to the next panel and then reboot itself. This has the affect of causing all the panels to reboot simultaneously.

Network Verify

Network Verify is an active process in which each panel and annunciator checks to make sure that all other panels can communicate with it. This requires that ALL PANELS in the network have same operating software and database.

Each panel sends out a Network Verify frame which is then passed around the network loop.

When the frame returns to its originating panel, it is checked to ensure it passed through the correct number of panels. Also, each panel checks the Network Verify frames from other panels to ensure that they are correct. Any errors and mismatches will be identified.

Network Communications

Information is sent across the network in frames. There are two types of frames: specific and broadcast. Specific frames are sent from one unit to another. Broadcast frames are sent from one unit to all others.

Specific Frames

Specific frames deal with information generated at one panel and required at another. It is passed from panel to panel until it reaches its destination. Each panel has a list as to which port to send frames from to reach all other panels through the fewest number of panels. Since networks will generally have all communications links running at the same baud rate, this is generally the shortest time as well.

If there is a break in the communications (see Figure 2 ), the panel that can not pass the message on will send it back the way it came.

This will cause the frame to go the long way around the network. If there are two breaks in the network loop, the frame is again reversed at the second break. When it is received by the originating panel after this second Figure 2: Single Network Break turn around, the frame is considered to be orphaned and destroyed. This generates a Network Reboot Required trouble. This will be passed on to all other panels. The reason the orphan frame is destroyed is to prevent unexpected operation when the network is finally repaired, such as a panel starts ringing its bells because of an alarm from the previous day.

3

MR-2900 Programming Manual

Broadcast Frames

Broadcast frames deal with information that affects the entire network. When a broadcast frame is created by a panel or annunciator, it is sent out both network communications ports. Each unit in turn will receive the broadcast in one port, act upon it and pass it on out the other port. Upon reaching the unit that generated the broadcast frame, that unit then disposes of it. This means that under normal circumstances, all units will receive a broadcast twice and act upon it twice.

If there is a break in a communications link (see Figure

2 ) the broadcast will be disposed of by the unit unable to pass it on.

In the situation where a unit has been removed from the loop (see

Figure 3 ), the broadcast will be passed only from com2 to com1 at the jump. In Figure 3 , panel 5 will pass the broadcast to panel 3, but panel 3 will not pass the broadcast on to panel 5 since it is supposed to be communicating to panel 4.

Figure 3: Panel Removed From Network

1.3 Addressable Devices

The MR-2900 can use analog/addressable devices. There are two general types of devices: sensors and modules. The following devices are supported:

Modules

MRI-M500M Monitor module

MRI-M501M Mini monitor module

MRI-M502M Monitor module for conventional 2-wire smoke detectors

MRI-M503M Micro monitor module (EN54 listed only)

The MRI-M500M, MRI-M500DM, MRI-M501M, MRI-M502M and MRI-M503M monitor modules all appear the same to the MR-2900. This allows for the easy substitution of devices. The

MRI-M501M and MRI-M503M modules are intended for mounting inside the back box of a conventional contact device. The MRI-M500M, MRI-M500DM and MRI-M502M require back boxes for mounting.

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The MRI-M500DM dual monitor module has two Class (Style) B input circuits. The first input uses the address dialled into the module and the second uses that address plus 1. That is, if the dials are set for address 34, the monitor modules to be programmed into MHI are at addresses 134 and

135.

The MRI-M502M monitor module can be used for monitoring up to 20 System Sensor two-wire smoke detectors. The module requires a separate 24 VDC supply to power the smoke detectors.

Also, some external means of resetting the power must be provided since the module cannot reset the detectors. This can be accomplished with one of the general purpose relays of the MR-2900.

Do not assign any relates to the relay in the MHI database. Also, the relay must be assigned a non-zero duration with the LCD menu. Then the relay will operate whenever the Reset hot key is pressed when it has nothing else to reset (neither LED is flashing).

The MRI-M500S control module can be used to control a supervised output, such as a bell or strobe circuit. The control module monitors the circuit wiring and troubles will be reported. The module will require a separate 24 VDC supply for the controlled circuit. When programming the database in MHI, be sure to program the control module correctly. Choose any “Control ( str )” option other than “Control (Relay)” for the MRI-M500S module. The MR-2900 will not operate a control module if the supervised circuit is shorted. Also there are options in MHI that affect the

MRI-M500S control module but not the MRI-M500R relay module.

The MRI-M500R relay provides two Form C relays. Choose “Control (relay)” for the MRI-M500R module. There are options in MHI that affect the MRI-M500R relay module that do not affect the

MRI-M500S control module.

The MRI-M500X isolator module is used to prevent wiring faults from affecting the entire circuit. It divides the addressable circuit into sections. The isolator has separate IN and OUT wiring. A short on one side of the isolator will not be seen on or affect the other side. Isolator modules do not use addresses. The isolator relies on a voltage threshold to determine whether it should be isolating or not. This voltage threshold is around 6.5V. All isolators in a system are in isolated mode on system power up. If there is an excess of current draw, the isolator will not close. When the short is removed, the isolator module will automatically close the circuit again. The LED on the isolator module will turn on when the module is in isolated mode, otherwise it will flash periodically. System

Sensor recommends no more than 25 devices between isolator modules since the inrush current of the devices may mimic a short condition preventing the isolator from closing. MRI-3251 detectors have an inrush current of up to 10 times that of other devices, thus only two can be placed between isolators.

The sensors all use bases for mounting. Besides the standard plain bases, there are also relay bases, isolator bases and a sounder base. The available bases are:

MRI-B501

MRI-B501B

Flangeless base for all sensors

Flanged base for MRI-x551 sensors

MRI-B210LP Flanged base for MRI-x251 sensors, low profile

MRI-B501BH Sounder base for all sensors

MRI-B501BHT sounder base, temporal

MRI-B524BI Isolator base for MRI-x551 sensors

MRI-B224BI Isolator base for MRI-x251 sensors, low profile

MRI-B524RB Relay base for MRI-x551 sensors

MRI-B224RB Relay base for MRI-x251 sensors, low profile

The relay and sounder bases are activated by the sensor LED. When this LED stays on for more than 10 seconds, the base will activate. This requires that the MR-2900 have the LED mode set to

FLASH. This is done through the LCD Menu by choosing PROGRAM/ADDRESSABLE/

LED MODE/FLASH. The MR-2900 will only turn on the LEDs of up to 5 devices

1

per addressable

1. BRK programs dated before 2 April 1999 limit the number of LEDs to 3.

5

MR-2900 Programming Manual circuit to prevent excess current flow. While the panel will continue to respond to further alarms from the circuit, the panel will not turn on additional LEDs. The MRI-B501BH and MRI-B501BHT sounder bases require a separate 24 VDC supply for operation. If the polarity of this supply is reversed for more than 10 seconds, the sounder base will activate.

Isolator bases function the same as isolator modules. The sensor plugged into the base is connected to the IN wiring to the base. The isolator is between the sensor and the OUT wiring.

While both sensors and modules have rotary dials that allow for addresses from 00 to 99, modules add 100 internally to the address programmed, thus using the address range 100 to 199. Since sensors and modules come from the factory addressed as 00, we do not allow that address to be used for an installed device. Address 0 is used for indication of wiring faults on the addressable circuit.

Device Faults

The following troubles (with condition code letter) can be reported by or for addressable devices:

• Missing (M): A device listed in the database is not reporting back when polled by the panel. For a new installation, this is generally indicative of devices that have been misaddressed. This error can also occur if there are any wiring faults.

• Illegal (I): A device is reporting on an address that the database shows as unused. For a new installation, this is generally indicative of devices that have been mis-addressed. For illegal sensors, since there is no programming available, if an alarm condition is detected, the MR-2900 will operate all its bell circuits.

1

In a network system, only the local panel will activate its bells. The MR-2900 will always ignore illegal modules.

• Wrong Type (U): This occurs if the device is not the type expected for the address. For example, the database lists an address to have a ion smoke detector, but a photo smoke detector has reported for the address. This error will also be used if the panel cannot determine the type of the device. If the device goes into alarm, the panel will operate normally.

• Trouble (T): Sensors: The device is defective and needs to be replaced.

2

Modules: The extended circuit from the module has a wiring fault. Note: Control modules that supervise their output circuit will not be operated if the output circuit is shorted

3

.

• Duplicate (D): This means that two devices are using the same address. The MR-2900 does a check every hour for duplicate devices. If either device goes into alarm, the panel will operate normally. Note: Due to the method used to detect duplicate devices, it is possible for a single device to appear as duplicate devices. Generally, the device will need to be replaced.

MR-2919 Class A Input Module

The MR-2919 Class A Addressable Input Module uses two input circuits, out on the odd numbered circuit and in on the following even numbered circuit, for example: out on circuit 9 and in on circuit

10. Both circuits are powered by the panel from a single source, so that there is no internal isolation between the circuits. This means that a short across one circuit will affect the other circuit.

6

1. BRK programs dated before 18 February 1999 always ignore illegal sensors.

2. BRK programs dated before 9 March 1999 do not report sensor troubles.

3. BRK programs dated before 10 September 1999 do not operate control modules if in any fault.

MR-2900 Programming Manual

1.4 Releasing Service

The eight output circuits are available for releasing service through programming. The MRI-M500S control module can also be programmed for releasing. Releasers can be programmed to be normally On (Continuous) or normally Off (Momentary). Continuous releasers will be turned off by a loss of AC power as well as by input. There can be three types of inputs to start operation:

Normal, Fast and Cross-Zoned. There are also Abort and Halt features available. Releaser operation is subject to both a delay and a duration time. These are all programmed in the database.

Normal operation of a releaser is as follows:

1.

An Alarm input causes the start of the releaser delay.

2.

After the delay time, the releaser is activated for the duration time.

3.

After the duration time, the releaser is returned to its normal state.

After this sequence of operation, the releaser will have to be reset before it will operate again.

The inputs that activate and control releaser operation are as follows:

• Normal Input: Causes the selected releaser to start its normal operating sequence.

• Fast Input: Causes the selected releaser to operate immediately, ignoring any delay time and will over-ride the Halt function (see below). The releaser will run for its standard duration.

• Cross-Zoned Input: These inputs allow for multiple inputs to be required before the releaser is activated. Inputs are assigned either to the “A-side” or “B-side”. If an alarm is received from both an A-side and a B-side detector, the releaser will start its normal operation.

• Halt Input: This will cause the selected releaser not to operate. The releaser will have to be reset before it will operate normally again. The Fast Input will over-ride the Halt function

(see above). Note: If used, this type of input must be controlled access to maintain UL listing.

• Abort Input: This will cause the selected releaser to stop running its timer once it reaches

10 seconds. The timer will stay at 10 seconds until the Abort input is restored. The timer will then resume.

Restrictions on Releaser Programming

1.

Cross-zoning and Fast operation require the use of the MR2 program and MHI.

2.

Normal, Cross-zoned and Fast inputs can be any of Alarm, Pull Station, Waterflow or

Supervisory functions.

3.

Abort and Halt functions cannot be assigned to Smoke Detector circuits or Smoke Detector and Contact Device circuits.

4.

All inputs affecting a releaser must be wired to the same panel as the releaser. This means that inputs from remote panels in a network cannot affect releasers.

7

MR-2900 Programming Manual

1.5 Resetting 4-Wire Detectors

4-wire detectors can be reset by using one of the function relays on the panel. The relay is not programmed for any use, that is, it is unassigned. The next requirement is that a non-zero duration be programmed for it (see the section Outputs Dialog ). A duration of zero disables this function.

Once this is done, wire the power for the device as shown in Figure 4 . A third party power supply can be used instead of the

Aux Power as shown Whenever the

System Reset operator key is pressed when neither LED is flashing, will cause the relay to operate for the duration programmed.

MR-2900 Programming Manual

2.0 Editing MHI Databases

2.1 General Comments

The editing of a system is done through a series of input windows. Editing starts with the System

Level and progresses to the Panel Level, then to the Input Level, and finally to the Relate Level.

The Main Menu and option speed keys are not available while editing/viewing the system. While editing is being done, the word OPEN is displayed in the Status Bar. This is to remind the user that the system database is open and that the computer should not be turned off. If the computer is turned off while the database is open, it may become corrupted.

If the current database has been previously verified and you select Edit, a requester will be displayed confirming your request to edit the database. If No is chosen, then the database is displayed in View mode. Editing the database will change the database to a non-verified state and will change the Last Edit Date.

Prior to an editing session, the database will be automatically backed up. This back up copy will have the same name as the original database, but will incorporate a .BAK extension. If a database becomes corrupted, delete it and rename its .BAK backup file to have a .DBA extension. This will restore the database to the state prior to the last editing session .

Note: When upgrading from a version 17 (or earlier) system, a number of items that were programmed at the panel are now included in the database. See the file UPGRADE.TXT for a complete description of these changes. Follow these instructions to obtain the required information before upgrading your firmware :

1.

Connect your computer to the panel and open the Terminal window

2.

Select the Printer screen in the Terminal: press

14

<Tab>

3.

You should note that the title bar of the Terminal window displays the text "File logging in progress...". If this does not appear, press the button Log On .

4.

In the terminal window, type the following command:

99?

5.

The panel's configuration settings will be listed in the Terminal window and it will also be saved in the file: LOG_CONT.TXT, located in your program directory

6.

Close the Terminal window

7.

You may now view the contents of the file using any standard word processor or text editor

8.

You must perform the above procedure for ALL panels in your system

Panel Types

There are a number of different types of panels that may be programmed. These are the ones covered:

• MR-2900 (mb2931) Fire Panel: This is an MR-2900 Control Panel using the MR-2931 motherboard. This panel accepts all input circuit modules and has four Class A or eight

Class B power-reversing output circuits. These output circuits can be programmed to be used as either bells or releaser type circuits. This is the standard board for the MR-2900.

These panels can be used in a network configuration.

• MR-2900 (mb2921) Fire Panel: This is an MR-2900 Control Panel using the MR-2921 motherboard. It is identical to the MR-2900 (mb2931) in hardware capability, but does not support all software features. This panel type is no longer produced.

• MR-2900 (mb2901) Fire Panel: This is an MR-2900 Control Panel using the MR-2901 motherboard. This panel accepts conventional input circuit modules only and has four bell circuits and four releaser type circuits. These circuits use different circuitry and cannot have their function changed. These panels can be used in a network configuration. This panel type is no longer produced.

• MR-2100/MR-2200 Fire Panel: Can be used in a network configuration with MR-2900 control panels.

9

MR-2900 Programming Manual

• MR-2400 Fire Panel: Not discussed in this manual.

• MR-2944 Annunciator: It includes the memory required to have a database loaded into it.

This allows for less information to be sent on the network. An optional 4x20 LCD can be included. This annunciator has two communications ports. This allows the annunciator to reside in the network loop. It uses the MR-2910 Network Board. One of the network ports can be disabled. This results in the annunciator having to be linked to a Control Panel.

With one of the ports disabled, the annunciator can not be in the network loop.

• MR-2934 Annunciator: It is identical to the MR-2944 in operation. It has the network communications built onto the board instead of using the MR-2910 Network Board. This annunciator is no longer produced.

• MR-2924 Annunciator: It is similar to the MR-2944 in operation. It does not have any onboard database memory, so messages are sent from the control panels. It has the network communications built onto the board instead of using the MR-2910 Network Board. This annunciator is no longer produced.

• MR-2914 Annunciator: It is similar to the MR-2924 except as follows: (a) the optional

LCD is 2x20; (b) there is only one network communication port. These annunciators are linked to a Control Panel and can not reside in the network loop. This annunciator is no longer produced.

Notes:

1.

The MR-2614 and MR-2644 Annunciators can be attached to the MR-2900 panel. They are considered an extension of the panel by MHI and do not change how these panels interface with other annunciators.

2.

All products no longer produced will be supported by MHI for existing systems.

2.2 System Window

The System Window (see

Figure 5 ) allows editing of all system level options, as well as detailing other system wide information.

The Title Bar of the window will show whether editing or viewing of the database is being preformed and the name of the current database.

The text in the top left corner provides information about the database. The top line gives the date and time the database was last edited.

The next line states whether

Figure 5: System Window the current contents have been verified or not; and whether the database has been compressed or not.

The options Bell System, Subsequent Alarm, Resound, Evac and Waterflow all affect how the notification appliance circuits (NAC), hereafter referred to as bells, react to alarm conditions.

Bell System is a drop down list for selecting how the bells and strobes will operate. This includes both the panel outputs and any control modules programmed for bell or strobe operation. This sets the base operation for the entire network. If coded bells are required, the bell codes are defined for each input individually. The following options are available:

10

MR-2900 Programming Manual

• Alert: A First Stage alarm activates the selected bells in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or Second Stage Inhibit Hot Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the panel will progress to Second Stage. Second stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

• Evac: A First Stage alarm will activate selected bells in Evacuation mode. Second Stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode. There is no timeout from First to Second Stage.

• Alert/Evac: A First Stage alarm activates the selected bells in Evacuation mode and all other bells on the panel in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or Second Stage Inhibit Hot

Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the system will progress to Second Stage.

Second Stage will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

• Staged: The 1st alarm will activate selected bells in Alert mode. If the Signal Silence or

Second Stage Inhibit Hot Key is not pressed before the NAK timeout, the selected bells are switched to Evacuation mode and the next bells, ie the ones with the next higher number, are activated in Alert mode. This sequence is repeated until all bells are in

Evacuation mode. When the highest numbered bell circuit switches to Evacuation mode, all bell and strobe circuits on the panel will be turned on in Evacuation mode. For example, if the alarm activates Bells 1 and 4, after the NAK timeout, Bells 1 and 4 are switched to

Evacuation mode and Bells 2 and 5 are set to Alert mode. A 2nd alarm will activate all bells in Evacuation mode.

Notes:

1.

Bells must be assigned consecutive bells circuits with no Releasers assigned in between Bells. For example: circuits 1, 2, 3, 4 can be assigned as Bells but not circuits

1, 2, 4, 5 with circuit 3 a Releaser.

2.

Control modules cannot be programmed as bell or strobe if the Staged Bell system is used.

Subsequent Alarm controls how Alert, Evac and Alert/Evac type bell systems behave when a new alarm is received while one is still active. 1st Stage has the panel repeat the First Stage operation.

2nd Stage has the panel go immediately to Second Stage operation.

Resound controls how the panels handle the automatic resounding of silenced bells when a new alarm is received. There are two modes:

• Local: Each panel will resound only its own silenced bells when a new alarm is received.

This would be used when panels in a network are in different buildings, such as a campus.

• Global: All panels in a network will resound silenced bells when a new alarm condition is received on any panel in the network. This is used when the panels are all in the same building, such as a large plant.

Evac controls whether the bell system Evacuation Mode sounds Steady (continuously) or uses a

Temporal pattern as specified in ANSI S3.41 and ISO 8201 Audible Emergency Evacuation Signal .

The pattern used ½s On, ½s Off, ½s On, ½s Off, ½s On, 1½s Off repeated.

Waterflow controls if bells can be silenced if they are started by a waterflow type input. If Non-

Silenceable is chosen, bell circuits activated by a waterflow input cannot be silenced until the device has restored.

Language chooses English (default), French or Hungarian characters to be used in messages.

See Appendix C Languages of the Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor for a description of the letters supported and the method of entering them.

Alarm List Sequence controls which end of the Alarm List is shown automatically. If First is chosen, the first (oldest) item in the alarm list will be shown. If Last is chosen, the last (newest) item in the alarm list is shown. Regardless of order, alarms always take precedence in being shown. Another way to think of it is that First shows where the fire started while Last shows where the fire has gotten to.

11

MR-2900 Programming Manual

Disconnects controls which panels the Signal Disconnect, Relay Disconnect, Releaser Disconnect and Common Disconnect hot keys affect.

• Local: The Disconnect hot keys affect only the panel they are on.

• Global: The Disconnect hot keys affect all the panels in the network. This means that if a

Disconnect key is pressed on any panel, all panels in the system will be affected.

The System Message is a text entry box for defining a message used to identify the system. The message is three lines by twenty characters long. It is printed at the top of printouts and shown on some service terminal screens, but only seen on the LCD in the STATUS/IDENTIFICATION menu.

The System Banner is a 20 character message that is used as a banner for the Main Menu of the

LCD. The default banner is “Modul-R by Secutron”.

The Enforce Local LED Rules check box forces an LED on an input's panel be related. Normally an LED anywhere in the system is all that is required. Note: The common LEDs of any panel are based upon the zone LEDs that are displayed by the panel, not based upon the inputs to the panel.

The Allow Complex Releaser Definitions check box enables extended functionality of releaser circuits and control modules programmed for releasing. This allows for Fast (no delay) operation of a releaser and for AND function using A and B side inputs to a releaser. See section 1.4 Releaser

Programming for details.

The Enforce Group Association checking check box enables MHI to check to see if a group association has been included in the relates of inputs. This option must be enabled when using an

MR-2806-MR Dialer.

The Observe Daylight Savings Time check box enables or disables the automatic changing of the clock for Daylight Savings Time. If enabled, the system will move 1 hour ahead the first Sunday of

April and fall back 1 hour the last Sunday of October (North American dates).

The Pre-alarm Buzzer , when enabled, will cause a tone to sound when a smoke detector circuit is in the auto-verify process or an addressable device is in alarm during the Retard period. The tone used is a triple beep every second.

Master ID defines which panel in a network will act as the Master panel. Only control panels may be chosen as the Master panel. The Master panel synchronizes the date and time on all panels and annunciators at 3:30am everyday.

Alarm List Mode sets the way the Alarm List messages are displayed on fire panels in the system.

Annunciators will always receive messages as marked in the database. There are three modes of displaying messages:

• Local: Each fire panel shows only Alarm List entries that are for that panel only.

• Global: Each fire panel shows Alarm List entries for itself and all other panels and annunciators.

• Master: The master fire panel shows the Alarm List entries for all panels and annunciators while all other fire panels show only their own Alarm List entries.

Common Relays controls what signals affect the common alarm, common supervisory and common trouble relays of each panel. The are two settings:

• Local: The common relays of a panel follow the events of events on that panel only.

• follow Alarm List Mode: The common relays of a panel will react to both events of the panel and any events listed in its Alarm List.

12

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The System Window has the following push buttons on the right hand side:

• Exit: Closes the System Window and, if editing, saves the database. At this time, a requester will ask if the database should be Verified. A database has to verify without errors before it can be downloaded.

• Panels: Displays the Panel Window. If the system has no panels defined, the Add Panel

Box is displayed to obtain the first control panel for the system.

• Switches: Displays the Switches Window. This window determines which devices are attached to the switches and the timers associated to each switch. See section 2.3 for the

Switches Window .

• Groups: Displays the Groups Window. This window is used to define groups of relates.

See section 2.4 for the Groups Window .

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section Verify of the Modul-R Human

Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

• Settings: Defines the Verify warnings to disable and/or errors to reduce to warnings for the current database. Not all warnings/errors can be disabled/reduced. The use of this is not recommended, but provided for special circumstances.

2.3 Switches Window

The Switches Window (see

Figure 6 ) allows for the setting of the On/Off (Day/

Night) switches. There are

16 system wide switches available. All panels in the network will keep track of its portion of the devices related to each switch.

Relays, LEDs and control modules will follow the On/

Off state of the switch they are related to. Addressable sensors will use Day sensitivity while the switch is on and Night sensitivity while the switch is off. The timers are used to have the

Figure 6: Switches Window switch change state at set times each day. Switches can also be operated manually at the panel. If the Switch is associated to a Hot Key, the Hot Key will then operate the switches. Changing a switch manually at one panel will affect all panels in the network.

Notes:

1.

Each addressable detector can only be related to a single switch.

2.

Relays, LEDs and control modules controlled by more than one switch will stay on as long as any switch operating them is on.

The title bar of the window will always list the currently highlighted switch.The Switches Table shows all 16 possible switches and highlights the current one. Select any one to make it the current switch. List entries will show the message RELATES FOUND for switches that have related devices.

13

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The HH:MM (Timer) entries control the times that the switch will change state. An even number of times must be entered, ie. each on must have a corresponding off. All times are entered using 24 hour notation, eg: one minute after midnight=0:01, noon=12:00, 3 PM=15:00, 4 AM=4:00, etc. A time of 0:00 is considered as not used. If an action at midnight is desired set the time to 0:01, one minute after midnight; or 23:59, a minute before midnight. MHI will sort the times into ascending order after the Switches Window is closed.

The Start Mode - On check box determines if the first time listed should turn the switch On or Off. If it is not checked, the first time turns the switch off. If it is checked, the first time turns the switch on.

The on and off indication beside each time entry will change to reflect what each time in the sorted list will do.

Use switch as Custom Hot Key allows the switch to be manually controlled by the Hot Keys. A hot key can be assigned to turn the switch on and another to turn it off. These keys will be marked as

HK in the Switches Table.

Description is a 20 character message that describes the Switch usage. This is useful in that the switch now has a description of its usage that is easier to understand when assigning Switches to

Hot Keys.

There are five push buttons on the right side:

• Exit: Close the Switches Window and return to the System Window.

• Reset: This will remove all relates and all times for the currently highlighted switch.

• Relate: Shows the Relate Window. Items marked *on* will be operated/controlled by the switch.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 for Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.4 Groups Window

The Groups Window (see

Figure 7 ) is used for creating and editing the

Groups of relates. The Title

Bar will show the current group.

This dialog allows you to setup "Groups" which are composed of a text description/message and relates. Groups are a method of establishing zone representations. They are also used to program zone information for the Dialler

(see the Zone Data section).

A zone representation may include a message and/or a

Figure 7: Groups Window group of Relates. Inputs (ie. circuits and/or devices) may relate to a Group or number of Groups and thus acquire all Relates that are referenced by them. Inputs can also adopt a Group message.

Making a change to a Group will affect all inputs (circuits and devices) related to the Group. This feature can significantly speed up the creation of medium to large size systems as well as simplify changes. Up to 250 groups may be defined.

14

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The use of Groups greatly simplifies the changes made to a database. For example, if a new door is installed that has to be unlocked during a fire alarm, the control module that unlocks the door is simply added to a Group. This single change is then automatically picked up by any inputs that are related to the Group. Since this number could be hundreds, the use of the Groups makes databases easier to maintain and decreases the likelihood of mistakes when items are added.

Note: Though any relationship can be selected for inclusion into a group, an input that references the group must be able to accommodate the group’s relates. For example, if a group includes relates to Bell or Strobe output, associating this group to a Supervisory type input will generate an error during verification because this type of input cannot operate Bells or Strobes. It may be advantageous to separate groups in these cases.

The Group List shows all the defined groups along with their message (if any) and if there are any relates defined for the group. The current group will be highlighted. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another group.

The Message/Description allows you to enter a message describing the Group. You are allowed space for 3 lines by 20 characters. If desired, this message may be adopted by a circuit or device by checking the Use Grp Msg check-box and specifying this Group ID.

The following push buttons are defined:

• Exit: Close the Groups Window and return to the previous window.

• Add Group: This defines a new group ID. The new group can have any number between

1 and 250. There is no need for the groups to be sequentially numbered or to start at 1.

• Delete Group: This will remove the group from the list. You will be asked if you want to have references to the group automatically removed.

• Reset Group: This will remove all relates for the currently highlighted group.

• Change ID: This allows the group ID to be changed. MHI will automatically change all references to use the new ID. A gauge will be displayed to show the progress of the change.

• Relate: Shows the Relate Window. Items marked *on* will be operated by inputs related to the group.

• Copy Relates: Copies the relates and/or message from an input point to the current group (see Figure 23 ). The values of the panel, circuit and device are required. Most conventional circuits use a device number of 0 (zero). Press Copy to copy the information.

• Map: Displays and updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the Modul-

R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, you will be given the option to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R Human Interface Database

Editor .

MR-2900 Programming Manual

2.5 Panel Window

The Panel Window (see Figure 8 ) allows editing of all panel level options. It defines the hardware mounted in the panel and the functionality of the programmable outputs. The programming controls provided will change to reflect the capabilities of the currently selected panel. The Title

Bar will describe the currently highlighted panel or annunciator.

The Panel Window has the following push buttons along the right side:

• Exit: Close the

Panel Window and return to the

System Window.

• Add Panel: Add another panel to the system. A dialog box will be displayed. The default options are to use the next available panel ID and to select an

MR-2900 panel.

You will also be asked if you want

Figure 8: Panel Window

MHI to automatically set the Next ID. If allowed, this panel will have the next higher numbered panel as its Next ID and the panel with the next lower number will be set to have this panel as its Next ID. If the new panel is the highest numbered panel, it will use the lowest numbered panel as its Next ID.

• Delete: Remove the current panel from the system. All programming for that panel will be lost. Any of the panel's outputs that are referenced will become invalid and will be removed by the next verify.

• Input Circuits: Display the Circuits Window. See section 2.6

• Internal Circuits: Display the Internal Circuit Window. See section 2.7.

• More Info: This displays a dialog box listing basic information about the panel including the date the database was last downloaded into a panel, the number of times downloaded, etc.

• Change Type: Displays a dialog box to change the type of the current panel. This makes it easier to correct mistakes when creating a database and to update the database if a panel type is changed in the field. Only certain type changes are allowed.

Note: This can have far reaching effects on a system. Any information that is no longer valid with the new panel type will be lost.

• Change ID: Displays a dialog box for changing the ID of the current panel. MHI will automatically change all references to use the new ID. This process could take a long time for a large database. A gauge will be displayed to show the progress of the change.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, you will be given the option to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R Human Interface Database

Editor.

The Panel List is located in the top left corner of the window. It lists all the panels, both Control and

Annunciator, that are defined in the system. The highlighted entry in the List is the one that is currently being edited. Its description is also shown in the title bar of the Panel Window. If a

16

MR-2900 Programming Manual different panel is selected, all the controls in the window will change to reflect this. Use the

<Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another panel.

The Message is located to the right of the Panel List. This is a 3 line by 20 character message that is associated with the Panel. This message will be displayed in Alarm Lists with signals that are generated by this panel. It will also be included in any print-outs generated by the Master Panel of the system. This message should include enough information that it will identify the panel and its location to fire or service personnel.

The Outputs area lists the function of the outputs of the panel. Use the Outputs Button to show the

Outputs Dialog (see the Outputs Dialog section) which allows for the programming of the Outputs and the relays.

The Options button displays the Options Dialog (see the Options Dialog section). This allows for the programming of the various panel options, such as Hot Keys, bell timers, etc.

The Next ID is located to the left of the push buttons at the top of the Panel Window. It is not displayed for single panel systems. It is used to define the ID of the next panel in the network loop.

Specify the panel ID of the panel to be connected to the COM 1 terminals of the current panel. See

Links for notes on programming systems that contain MR-2914 Annunciators or single-port

MR-2944, MR-2934 or MR-2924 Annunciators. Note: For MR-2924 Annunciators, this value is used by the Verify only. Each MR-2924 must be field programmed with the correct Next ID.

Links is used to enter the IDs of single port annunciators that are connected to COM 1 of the

MR-2900 panel. Any of the following can be used in this manner, the MR-2914, or the MR-2944,

MR-2934 or MR-2924 (with one comport disabled). These annunciators do not reside in the network loop, but are branches off of it.

Port 3 Connect sets the purpose of the Port 3 general communications port. If the operating program loaded does not support the selected setting, a wrong port 3 program trouble will be generated by the panel. The options are:

• none: Port 3 is not used.

• Digital Protocol 1: Sets Port 3 to use the old protocol to the SE 2000.

• Digital Protocol 2: Sets Port 3 to use the new protocol to the SE 2000.

• PC Connect: Sets Port 3 to use the GRID program interface.

• Voice Evac. System: Sets Port 3 to communicate with the MV-2700 voice evacuation panel.

• Annunciator Connect: Sets Port 3 to communicate with the Dialler, MR-2614 or MR-

2644 annunciators, or city tie module.

The MR2614 Connect is marked to enable supervision of an MR2614 annunciator. You can select the number of LEDs, up to 72 zones, which are considered an extension of the panel itself.

Choose the number of LED zones using the Local Ann. LED Cnt drop down box. This means that

MR-2900 panels will display up to 96 zones instead of 24, with zones 25 to 96 being zones 1 to 72 of the annunciator. Though up to eight MR-2614s can be attached to the panel, each one will show the same information.

17

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The IDs button displays all possible IDs of the MR-2614 and MR-

2644 annunciators (see Figure 9 ) as well as the MR-2801B-MR and Dialler. Check the IDs that will be connected to the system. If the MR2614 Connect box is checked, IDs for MR-2614 annunciators must also be checked. When the MR-2806-MR is enabled, a button will appear next to that option called Dialer

Settings (see the section on Dialer Options for a description of the dialer options).

Hot Key Routing is a set of radio buttons for setting the other panels or annunciators to be controlled by the current panel. To have no other panels affected by the current panel, mark Local .

To have the current panel affect all other panels on the network, mark Global . To choose only some panels, mark Custom . A text entry box entitled route panel ids is then displayed. Enter the

Figure 9: IDs

Supervised panel IDs to be controlled separated by commas, eg. “2, 3, 4".

Each ID listed will receive Hot Key commands from the current panel whenever its Hot Keys are pressed.

Note: MR-2924 and MR-2914 annunciators do not use this setting. They are field programmed.

Annunciators have the following unique controls for programming (see

Figure 10 ).

The LCD check box is located immediately left of the buttons. It indicates whether or not the annunciator has an alphanumeric LCD. This setting is used by MHI only to determine if the Message

Receive check box should be shown for the annunciator in the Relate

Window. This value is not sent to the annunciator.

Figure 10: Annunciator Panel Window

LED Count is located directly below the LCD check box. This defines the number of LED zones the annunciator will be using. A count of zero will disable the Hot LEDs and Common LED.

Hot LED is located directly below the LED Count drop down. This value defines the first of four

LED zones the annunciator will use for internal functions. Any of the zones can be chosen with the requirement that there are four consecutive zones available. Entering a zone of 0 will disable the hot key zones. These will reflect the current status of the annunciator and the panel(s) it sends commands to.

18

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The LEDs have the following meaning when flashing:

Zone n alarm: Acknowledge available Zone n+2 alarm: 2nd Stage Inhibit available

Zone n supervisory: Reset available (green) Zone n+2 supervisory Future use

Zone n trouble: Reset available (yellow)

Zone n+1 alarm: Signal Silence active

Zone n+2 trouble Future use

Zone n+3 alarm Future use

Zone n+1 supervisory: Signal Silence available

Zone n+1 trouble: 2nd Stage Inhibit active

Zone n+3 supervisory Future use

Zone n+3 trouble Power On

Notes:

1.

The Power On LED refers to the 24 VDC to the annunciator, not to any AC source.

2.

MR-2924 and MR-2914 annunciators must be field programmed to have a Hot LED.

Common LED is located directly below the Hot LED setting. This is the LED zone the annunciator will use for common alarm, supervisory and trouble indication. It is a summation of the zone LEDs of the annunciator. Any LED zone may be used. The zone chosen will not be available for general annunciation. Entering a zone of 0 will disable the common zone. Note: MR-2924 and MR-2914 annunciators must be field programmed to have a Common LED.

Ports is located below the Common LED setting. It is not displayed for MR-2914 Annunciators.

This option enables (double) or disables (single) the COM 1 network port. If both ports are enabled, the Next ID text box will become available (see above for a description of Next ID ).

Note: MR-2924 Annunciators must be field programmed for COM 1 port operation.

Outputs Dialog

The Outputs Dialog (see Figure

11 ) allows for the programming of the panel’s outputs and function relays.

The Outputs section is a list box that is used to select the output to program. Once the output is selected, it is programmable for the following output types:

• Bell: This is a standard signalling circuit. It sounds in Alert or Evacuation mode as required. It does not sound codes.

• Strobe: This signalling circuit for use with strobes. They are non-

Figure 11: Output Dialog silenceable and will be turned on continuously for both Alert and Evacuation mode operation. Strobe circuits cannot be silenced until the system is reset (unless the Strobe

Duration timer is programmed – see the Options Dialog section for Strobe Duration ).

• Coded Bell: This signalling circuit will sound out the code for any input that operates it and then silence. It does not sound in Alert or Evacuation mode.

• Continuous Releaser (C. Releaser): This type of releaser remains on until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then turned off after the Delay until the panel is reset. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds. Warning: Continuous releasers are also turned off when there is an AC power fail or when the panel is in its power up cycle.

19

MR-2900 Programming Manual

• Momentary Releaser (M. Releaser): This type of releaser is inactive until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. The releaser is then not activated until after the

Delay time. The releaser is turned off after the Duration time, or the activating zone and panel are reset. Momentary releasers function normally during an AC power fail. The

Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds and the Duration can be up to 1800 seconds. 1800 seconds is 30 minutes. A Duration of zero (0) will cause the releaser to stay on until it is reset.

Note: Releaser type circuits can only be activated by inputs on the same panel.

• Auxiliary Power (AuxPwr): This turns on the Output continuously to supply power for auxiliary devices, such as annunciators. If a Duration time is given for the Auxiliary Power circuit, the circuit will be powered off for that number of seconds (from 1 to 30) when the panel Reset key is pressed with neither of its LEDs flashing. This allows for the reset of 4 wire detectors. A duration time of 0 prevents this operation. Auxiliary Power circuits will be turned off by the panel while it is in its power up cycle.

• Follow Supervisory (follow Supv): The output will sound when there is any supervisory condition present on the panel. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the circuit.

• Follow Trouble (follow Trbl): The output will sound when there is any trouble condition present on the panel. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the circuit.

The Output Class drop down box is for MR-2900 (mb2931) and MR-2900 (mb2921) panels only.

This selects whether there are eight Class B outputs (MR-2926 Terminal Board) or four Class A outputs (MR-2925 Terminal Board).

Relay Delay is the times that the relay waits before activating. A delay of 0 causes instant operation. This can be from 0 to 60 seconds.

Relay Duration affects the time the relay is activated. For relays operated from inputs, it is the minimum time the relay will operate. The relay must stay on for this length of time before it can be reset. This is for equipment that must remain off a length of time before it can be started up again.

If no input operates the relay, it is available for the reset of 4 wire devices. If the duration is not 0

(zero), then the relay will activate for the duration time when the Reset hot key is pressed with neither of its LEDs flashing. The duration can be from 0 to 300 seconds (5 minutes).

Options Dialog

The Options Dialog (see

Figure 12 ) allows for the programming of the panel and annunciator options. These settings will affect the current panel only.

Buzzer Mode sets when the panel buzzer will sound.

Normal causes the buzzer to sound for supervisory and trouble conditions. All causes the buzzer to sound for all conditions. MR-2934, MR-

2924 and MR-2914

Annunciators always use All .

to meet NFPA 72 requirements, section 1-5.4.7

Bypass Priv.

sets the privilege level required to set circuit and device bypasses, and manual control of relays, control modules and switches. This privilege can be set to Level 2 (default) or

Level 1.

Disconnect sets the privilege level required for the Disconnect and Test Mode Hot Keys. These can be set to Level 1 (default) or Level 0. If Level 0 is chosen, the Disconnect Hot Keys can be operated without a passcode being entered into the panel.

Banner Mode dictates what the top line of the Main Menu of the LCD will be. There are four modes of operation:

• Status Ind.: This mode displays the lines SYSTEM NORMAL and SYSTEM OFF

NORMAL.

• Panel Ban.: This mode displays the 20 characters of text entered into the text box that appears below the drop down while this mode is selected.

• System Ban.: This mode displays the text defined by the System Banner.

• Equip. Desc.: This mode allows the panel to display its own identification text.

The AC Fail is the delay before the panel will report that it has lost AC power. The panel itself will go into AC Fail mode to conserve power immediately upon losing AC. This delay is the length of time before the panel generates the trouble condition. This can be set from 0 to 1800 minutes (30 hours). If a time of 0 minutes is entered, the panel will use a 10 second delay. Note: Most installations will require a time of 1 minute (default) to meet required codes and standards. For panels connected to UL listed monitoring stations, normally a time of 6 to 12 hours (360 to 720 minutes) is required.

Fan Delay sets the number of scans between the reset of each Control Module (relay) on an addressable circuit. This allows for the staggered restart of fans when the system is reset. This option can be enabled or disabled on each addressable circuit as required. It has no affect on

Control Modules (supervising).

Bell Inhibit is the length of time the bells must sound before they can be silenced. This time can be from 0 to 120 seconds. Coded bells will always sound out their complete code and then stop.

Bell Timeout is the length of time the panel will stay in First Stage operation before automatically progressing to Second Stage. This can be set from 2 to 10 minutes. Most codes do not allow this time to exceed 5 minutes. Check with local codes and the authority having jurisdiction for the allowable limits for this time. Both the Second Stage Inhibit and Signal Silence will prevent this timeout from occurring.

Bell Cutoff is the length of time the bells will sound before they are automatically silenced by the panel. A time of 0 disables this feature. The cutoff can be set from 5 to 30 minutes. If the cutoff is used, it must be longer than the Bell Timeout .

Coded Bell Speed sets the time interval between the bits of the codes. This speed can be 1, ¾, ½ or ¼ second. The time between digits is three times this speed. The time between rounds is seven times this speed.

Maintenance Margin sets the gap between the maintenance threshold and the alarm threshold for addressable sensors. If the sensor stays between these two values for the Maintenance Retard time, the panel will report a Maintenance Alert trouble for the sensor. The margin can be set from 0 to 500, with 0 giving no warning and 500 giving the earliest warning.

Maintenance Retard is the number of consecutive scans the addressable sensor has to stay between the maintenance and alarm thresholds to generate the Maintenance Alert trouble. This retard can be from 5 to 50 scans. Scan time can vary from 2.5 to 5 seconds with usual values from

3.5 to 4 seconds.

Smoke Detector Reset Time sets the time the MR-2900 will power off conventional 2-wire smoke detectors to reset them. This time can be from 1 to 20 seconds. Current smoke detectors only need the default value of 1 second. Older smoke detectors may need a longer time to reset.

21

MR-2900 Programming Manual

Strobe Duration Time sets the time that strobe circuits will operate when activated when operated along with coded bells. The timer starts when the coded bells start. At the end of the timer, the strobes are silenced. A time of 0 (zero) disables the automatic silence. This value can be from 10 to 510 seconds.

Enable Disconnect & Test Timeout enables or disables disconnect timeouts. If the timeouts are disabled, Relay Disconnect, Releaser Disconnect, Signal Disconnect, Common Disconnect and

Test Mode must all be manually ended. If enabled, these functions will be automatically ended after four hours.

Trbl/Supv Output Auto Silence enables or disables the automatic silencing of the Follow Trouble and Follow Supervisory outputs during a fire condition. If enabled, the Follow Trouble and Follow

Supervisory outputs will automatically sound again once the fire bells and strobes have been silenced.

Suppress Missing Signals allows for the suppression of device missing signals for a loop that has a short or ground fault condition. If enabled, the panel will only report the short or ground fault condition, but not the missing device messages. Note: This feature requires that the BRK program be dated 9 September 1999 or later (version 17.20 or later).

Hot Keys are a set of drop down boxes that control the functions of the operator keys on the front of the panel. There are 2 keys, each with yellow and green LED (some keys may have red instead of yellow LEDs). The LEDs are used to display function status. There are fixed placement function keys as shown in Figure 14 . The default layout is shown in Figure 13 . The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid (unavailable) key is pressed. The panel will record every key press in the history.

MR-2900 Programming Manual

Dialer Configuration 1

The Dialer Configuration 1 dialog

(see Figure 16 ) contains the First

Communicator Options, Second

Communicator Options and

International Options.

The Communications option determines if the dialer will communicate to the central station.

When Enabled is selected, the dialer will communicate all events as programmed. When Disabled is selected, the dialer will not communicate any events.

Figure 16: Dialer Configuration 1

The TLM One/Two Check options determine whether the dialer will test for telephone line faults on line one and line two respectively.

The Third Phone # can be programmed for two different modes of operation. When Alternate

Dialing Enabled is selected, the dialer switches between the first and third numbers after each dialing attempt, until the maximum number of dialing attempts have been made to each number.

When Third Number Backup is enabled, the dialer will use the third number only if all attempts to communicate to the first number fail. If all attempts to communicate to the third number also fail, a failure to communicate trouble will be generated. When Disabled is selected, the third telephone number is not used.

The Dialing option has three different options for pulse or DTMF dialing. If All attempts Pulse is selected, the dialer will always use pulse (rotary) dialing. If All attempts DTMF Dialing is selected, the dialer will always use DTMF dialing. If 4 attempts DTMF then Pulse is selected, the dialer will use DTMF dialing for the first four attempts. If unsuccessful, the dialer will switch to pulse dialing for the remaining attempts.

The SIA Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send automatic reporting codes, or use the reporting codes that are programmed in the Zone Data and Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic SIA Reporting Codes.

The SIA Max Events option sets the maximum number of events the dialer will send for one SIA transmission. When 20 per Round is selected, SIA sends a maximum of 20 events per round.

When 8 per Round is selected, SIA sends maximum of 8 events per round.

The Contact ID Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send automatic reporting codes, or use the values that are programmed in the Zone Data and Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic Contact ID Reporting Codes.

The Test Transmission Line option determines how the dialer chooses a telephone line to send the automatic test transmission. If Alternate is selected, the dialer will alternate between using lines 1 and 2 for transmissions, regardless of telephone line troubles. If Available is selected, the dialer will use Line 1 for test transmissions. If a trouble exists on Line 1, the dialer will switch to Line 2.

When the Force Dialing option is set to enabled, if the first attempt by the panel to call the monitoring station fails, on every subsequent attempt the panel will dial regardless of the presence of dial tone. When Disabled is selected, the panel will not dial the programmed telephone number if dial tone is not present.

When the Busy Tone Detection option is enabled, if busy tone is detected, the dialer will disengage the phone line and try to place the call again following the delay between dialing attempts. When

Disabled is selected, the dialer will use the standard dialing procedure for every attempt.

26

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The Pulse Make/Break Ratio option is for panels in international applications. When 40/60 is selected, the pulse dialing make/break ratio is the 40/60, and when 33/67 is selected it is 33/67.

The Handshake option determines the handshake used for BPS transmissions. When 1600 Hz is selected, the dialer responds to a 1600 Hz handshake. When Standard is selected, the dialer responds to the handshake designated by the format selected (1400 or 2300 Hz).

The ID Tone can be set to 1300Hz or 2100 Hz. The panel will emit a tone at the selected frequency for 500 ms every 2 seconds when it places a call to indicate that it is a digital equipment call, not voice. When Disabled is selected, this feature will not be used.

Dialer Configuration 2

The Dialer Configuration 2 screen (see Figure 17 ) contains the Swinger Shutdown

Variables, Other Options and

Test Transmission options.

The Swinger Shutdown options determine the maximum number of zone and trouble events that the dialer will transmit in one day. The alarm or trouble will still be displayed on the panel and logged in the archive, but the dialer will not transmit the event. There are individual counters for Zone

Alarm and Restore, Zone

Supervisory and Restore, Zone

Trouble and Restore and Maintenance Trouble and Restore. This feature will be reset at midnight.

To disable the feature, program 000.

The Test Transmission Time of Day determines when the automatic test transmission will occur.

The entry is four digits (HH:MM). To disable the feature, program the time as [9999].

The Test Transmission Cycle determines the number of days between test transmissions. This is automatically set so that tests are performed daily and may not be varied.

The TLM Trouble Delay controls the number of telephone line monitoring checks required before a telephone line trouble is generated. The dialer checks the telephone connection at 10-second intervals.

The Maximum Dialing Attempts to Each Phone Number is the number of attempts that the dialer will make to each telephone number before generating a fail to communicate trouble. The default setting is 5 attempts.

Post Dial Wait for Handshake is the amount of time the dialer will wait for a valid initial handshake from the receiver after dialing the programmed telephone number.

2.6

Circuits and Devices Windows

The Circuits Window (see

Figure 21 ) allows for the defining of conventional and addressable input circuits. The Devices

Window (see Figure 22 ) allows for the defining of addressable devices, and for the smoke and contact type inputs of the Smoke

Detector + N/O Contact

Device circuit. These two windows are nearly identical. Most controls on one are found on the other with the few exceptions

Figure 21: Circuits Window noted. The current Circuit or Device is shown in the Title Bar of the window.

The Circuit List is located in the top left corner of the window. It is shown on the Circuits Window only. This lists any defined circuits for the current panel. Each circuit shows the circuit number, type of circuit and function if applicable. The highlighted circuit is described in the title bar of the

Circuits Window. Unused circuits are shown using three dashes. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another circuit. The <Up> and <Down> Arrow keys change the current circuit. The <Right> and <Left> Arrow keys will change the type of the current circuit. The <Plus> and <Minus> keys will change the function of the current circuit.

The Circuit Type Selector is located below Circuit List on the left hand side. It is shown on the

Circuit Window only. It is a drop down box used to assign the current circuit type. If the circuit is unused, select not assigned. Only options supported by the Input Circuit Modules programmed for the current panel will be assignable.

29

MR-2900 Programming Manual

The Device List is located in the top left corner of the window. It is shown on the Devices Window only. It lists any defined addressable devices for the current addressable circuit, the two entries for a dual end-of-line circuit, and the separate smoke detector and n/o contract device for a Smoke Detector + N/O

Contact circuit. For addressable devices, the type of device and its function are shown for each one. Unused addresses are shown with three dashes. Use the <Backspace> key in order to

Figure 22: Devices Window quickly re-position the current selection to another device. The <Up> and <Down> Arrow keys change the current device. The <Right> and <Left Arrow> keys will change the type of the current device. The <Plus> and <Minus> keys will change the function of the current device.

Note: Both devices listed for Dual end-of-line and Smoke Detector + N/O Contact circuits must be defined.

The Device Type Selector is located below Device List on the left hand side. It is shown on the

Device Window only. It is used to assign the current device type. For addressable circuits, it displays sensors for addresses 1 to 99 and modules for addresses 101 to 199. If the address is unused, select not assigned. The following module types are available:

• Monitor (Class B): This is a standard monitor module using Class B (Style B) wiring and an end-of-line resistor. This must be chosen for MRI-M500DM, MRI-M501M and MRI-

M503M modules.

• Monitor (Class A): This is a standard monitor module using Class A (Style D) wiring. This can be used only with the MRI-M500M and MRI-M502M modules.

• Control (supervising): This programs the MRI-M500S as a generic signalling circuit. It can be turned on by alarm or supervisory inputs. It will remain on until the system is reset.

• Control (relay): This is used for programming the MRI-M500R relay module.

• Control (Bell): This programs the MRI-M500S as a standard signalling circuit. It will turn on continuously when activated by an alarm. It will turn off when Signal Silence is pressed.

It does not sound codes.

• Control (Strobe): This programs the MRI-M500S as a signalling circuit for use with strobes. It will be turned on continuously for both Alert and Evacuation mode operation until the system is reset (unless the strobe duration is programmed – see the Options

Dialog section for Strobe Duration ).

• Control (C-Releaser): This programs the MRI-M500S as a continuous releaser. It will remain on until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. After the Delay, the releaser is turned off until the panel is reset. The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds.

• Control (M-Releaser): This programs the MRI-M500S as a momentary releaser. It is inactive until an alarm is received on a zone activating the releaser. After the Delay , the releaser is activated. The releaser is turned off after the Duration time, or the activating zone and panel are reset. Momentary releasers function normally during an AC power fail.

The Delay can be from 0 to 180 seconds and the Duration can be up to 1800 seconds.

1800 seconds is 30 minutes. A Duration of zero (0) will cause the releaser to stay on until it is reset.

The Function Type Selector is used to program the function of the current input point. The following function types are available:

30

MR-2900 Programming Manual

• Alarm: This is a generic fire input. Displays **ALARM** in the Alarm List when activated.

• Pull Station: This is a fire input similar to Alarm. The differences are it displays **PULL

STATION** in the Alarm List and may not have a retard time programmed.

• Waterflow: This is a fire input similar to Alarm except that it displays **WATERFLOW** in the Alarm List. Bell circuits can be made non-silenceable for waterflow type inputs (see section 2.2 System Window ).

• Supervisory: This is used for such inputs as Low Water Pressure, Sprinkler Shut Off

Valve Closed, etc.

• Halt: This causes the related releaser outputs to not operate. The supervisory LED will be turned on by activation of this type of input. See section 1.4 Releaser Programming .

• Abort: This causes the related releaser outputs to have their associated timers to be stopped. The timers will start to run again when the input goes back to normal. The supervisory LED will be turned on by activation of this type of input. See section 1.4

Releaser Programming .

• Monitor: This is used to monitor the action of items such as dampers, door, fans, etc. The supervisory LED is used. Monitor inputs can operate relays and control modules.

• Non-reporting: This is a non-latching type of input. They can only operate LEDs, function relays and control modules. The supervisory LED will be operated. Outputs operated by a

Non-reporting input cannot be also operated by another type of input or switch.

• Trouble: This function type is used for various circuit types and for control modules.

Trouble type inputs operate LEDs only, no other outputs are allowed. This function type is assigned by MHI automatically.

The Message is located in the middle of the top of the window. This 3 line by 20 character text message is displayed or printed for all signals originating from the current input point. Circuit types that use devices will have a default message created for them when defined. This message can be changed.

The Use Grp Msg check box is used if the input point is to use a group message. A text entry box will appear when the box is checked. Enter the ID of the group message to be used. Only one ID can be entered. If a group message is being used, it will be displayed in the Message area, but the message cannot be altered.

There are a number of options that can be used for each input circuit or device. Not all options apply to all inputs. MHI will only show those options that are currently usable. The following options are available:

• Retard: This is the amount of time the input must stay in an alarm state before it is treated as a valid alarm. This option is not valid with Pull Station function type inputs nor for

Conventional Smoke Detector inputs. Conventional circuits are programmed for seconds of delay time. Addressable devices are programmed for a number of additional consecutive scans that must be in alarm before the panel will accept the alarm. The duration of a scan varies between 2.5 and 5 seconds. Note: It is the responsibility of the person writing the database to ensure that the retard time chosen does not exceed any limits allowed by code.

It is possible to generate long retard times that are in the two to three minute range if a large number of scans is chosen. For example, UL states that the system cannot take more than 50 seconds to report a waterflow condition.

One has to ensure that the total delay of the waterflow detector and the input combined does not exceed 50 seconds.

• Verify: Select to have Conventional Smoke Detector inputs verified. Verification causes the smoke detector to be reset. If the detector goes into alarm again within the verification time, the alarm is considered valid.

• Enable Fan Delay: Controls the staggered turning off of Control Modules (relay). If checked, Control Modules (relay) on this circuit will be turned off in sequence, from the lowest address to the highest address, at a rate set by the Fan Delay option in the Panel

31

MR-2900 Programming Manual

Options Dialog, when Reset is pressed on the panel. The operation of Control Modules

(supervising) is not affected by this setting.

• Disable Maintenance Alert: Disables the addressable smoke or heat sensor from reporting Maintenance Alert. Maintenance Alert is defined by the device staying at almost alarm threshold for an extended period of time. This is usually an indication that a smoke sensor requires cleaning. Heat sensors in high temperature areas may need the

Maintenance Alert disabled to limit nuisance troubles. Standard room temperature (20°C) will not cause a Maintenance Alert on a heat detector.

• Code Bells: Checking this option will cause only selected coded bells to sound coded signals

1

. If coded bells are used the following options are then also shown:

-- No Restore: If checked, the panel will not sound the Code again when the input restores. If not checked, the panel will sound a single round of the Code when the input restores

-- Code: This is the sequence that will be sounded when an alarm is received on this input. It can be up to 4 digits long. Hexadecimal digits are used, thus each digit can be from 1 to F, where A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14 and F=15.

-- Round: This is the number of times the Code will be repeated. It can be between 1 and

4 times for no restore inputs, and between 2 and 4 for restore inputs.

• Night Sens.

and Day Sens.: Selects the Alarm threshold sensitivity for addressable smoke sensors. Heat sensors always use Normal sensitivity. Increased sensitivity will cause alarms at lower levels of smoke. Sensors not attached to a switch always use the

Night Sensitivity. Sensors attached to a switch will use Night Sensitivity while the switch is

Off and Day Sensitivity while the switch is On. Night Sensitivity must always be equal to or more sensitive than the Day Sensitivity.

• Manual Restart: Check this to require that the control module not be reset by System

Reset but by Manual Restart . Use of this option will require that there be a Manual Restart function key assigned to the panel.

The push buttons located on the right hand side are:

• Exit: Closes the window and returns to the previous window.

• Devices: Opens the Devices Window for the current circuit (Circuits Window only).

• Copy: Copies the circuit/device information, relates and message from another input to the current input

(see Figure 23 ). The current input does not have to be defined. Relates cannot be copied between conventional and addressable input points. The

Panel ID, Circuit ID and Device ID (not always shown) list the circuit/device to be copied from.

Marking Transfer Main Definition will copy the listed circuit/device type and function to the current circuit/ device. Note: Not all inputs can be copied to all other possible inputs. Marking Transfer Relates will copy the relates from the listed circuit/device relates to the current one. This may cause some invalid relates. Marking Transfer Message will cause the message to be copied. Marking Transfer Devices (if shown) will copy any device definitions that the listed

Figure 23: Copy Dialog

Box circuit contains. These devices will copy messages and relates as based on those settings above.

1. Regular bells will only sound their respective Alert or Evac tones regardless of the settings chosen in this area.

32

MR-2900 Programming Manual

There is no check at this time as to the validity of the values copied. Unexpected results can occur if care is not taken.

For each database that is created, a warning about using copy is shown. Marking the check box in the warning will stop the box from appearing again for the database.

This option can help speed up the creation of a database. By completely defining one input, these values can be copied to all other inputs, making any minor changes that are required after the copy.

• Relate or Trbl Relate: Opens the Relate Window for the current circuit or device. This allows for the programming of outputs, LEDs, relays and control modules to be operated when the input goes into alarm. The Relate button will display all output types that are available depending on the function type of the input. The Trbl Relate button will display only LEDs that can be related. Note: All panel outputs and control modules to be operated must be defined before they can be included in the relates of an input.

• Map: Displays and/or updates the Map Window. See section 2.8 Map Window of the

Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor .

• Verify List: Displays the Verify List. If there is no Verify List, a requester will appear asking whether you wish to perform a verification. See section 2.6.5 Verify of the Modul-R

Human Interface Database Editor for a full description of the Verify List and its uses.

2.7 Internal Circuits Window

The Internal Circuits Window (see

Figure 24 ) allows for the programming of outputs, LEDs, etc. for the various internal circuits (functions) of the

Control Panel. Internal circuits 0, 72,

73, 74, 75, 81, 82, and 96 are fire alarm functions while all others are trouble functions. All internal circuits have specific meanings and are stored in the archive of the panel. MR-2944 and

MR-2934 annunciators only use internal circuits 51 and 52. See

Appendix 45) Condition Codes and

Zone Numbers for a list of all the internal circuits.

Some of the internal circuits are:

Figure 24: Internal Circuits Window

• Internal Circuit 0, General

Alarm : This is the General Alarm function. General Alarm can be received from an annunciator or from an SE 2000. It can be assigned to one of the Hot Keys of control panels. General Alarm causes all the bells and strobes on the panel to operate in

Evacuation mode. Any additional outputs, LEDs, etc. that require operation are programmed using the Relate button.

• Internal Circuit 51, Comlink #1 Supervision: This is used for communications errors on

COM1 port of the panel or annunciator.

• Internal Circuit 52, Comlink #2 Supervision: This is used for communications errors on

COM2 port of the panel or annunciator.

• Internal Circuit 71, Network Ground Fault : This indicates one of the COM1 wires is shorted to ground.

• Internal Circuit 81, 1st Stage Alarm: This circuit is activated if the bells and strobes are activated in first stage by an alarm input. Any additional outputs, LEDs, etc. that require

33

2.8 Relate Window

The Relate Window (see Figure

25 ) allows for the relating of inputs, switches and groups to outputs, LEDs, relays, etc. These relationships are used by the panel to determine which outputs to operate for alarm and trouble states. Inputs can operate bells/ strobes, LEDs, relays, control modules on any panel in the system and continuous/ momentary releasers on the same panel. Switches can operate relays, LEDs, control modules on any panel in the system and control the day/night sensitivity

Figure 25: Relate Window change of any addressable detector on any panel. The title bar describes the current input point/switch/group and current output panel or annunciator.

Groups is a comma separated list of all the groups that the point is to use for relates. Up to ten groups can be listed. These groups are assigned to the point itself and does not change as the current output panel changes. Relates that are part of the groups are not shown in the Relate

Window but can be shown on the Map Window if so desired.

The Panel List is a list-box located in the top left corner of the window. It lists all the panels, both

Control and Annunciator, that are defined in the system along with their panel message. The highlighted entry in the list is the one that is being related to by the current input. When a different panel is selected, all the controls in the window will change to reflect this. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another panel.

The Outputs List shows the programmable outputs of the panel. It is not shown for annunciators. It lists all outputs, along with their definition and current state. The states are *on* for selected, blank for not selected, act if they are activated by default, and n/a for not available. A blank definition is for unused outputs. Bell and Strobe outputs can only be selected for Fire Alarm type inputs. If

Complex Releasers are enabled, releasers can have three other states: Fast which operates the releaser immediately regardless of any delay that is programmed in; *A* or *B* which allow for

AND logic. The releaser will not operate until both an A and a B input have been activated. Use the

<space> key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections. Use the

<Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another output.

The Relays List shows the general purpose function relays of the panel. It is not shown for annunciators. Each is listed by number and state. The states are *on* for selected and blank for not selected. Use the <space> key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another relay.

The LEDs List shows the LED zones available on the panel or annunciator. This will not be shown if the panel has no LEDs. Each is listed by number and state. The states are *on* for selected, blank for not selected and n/a for not available. Use the <space> key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections. Use the <Backspace> key in order to quickly re-position the current selection to another LED. The actual number of LED zones varies depending upon the panel or annunciator.

The Device List shows the addressable devices that can be related to the current point. For system inputs and groups, it is displayed only if there are any control or relay modules defined for

35

MR-2900 Programming Manual the panel; for switches, it is displayed if there are any addressable detectors, or any control or relay modules defined. Each entry shows the devices’s address (panel. circuit.device), its state and its device message. The states are *on* for selected and blank for not selected. If Complex

Releasers are enabled, control modules programmed for releasers can have three other states:

Fast which operates the releaser immediately regardless of any delay that is programmed in; *A* or *B* which allow for AND logic. The releaser will not operate until both an A and a B input have been activated. Devices that are not available or are invalid are not shown. Use the <space> key or double click on the entry to cycle between available selections.

The Evac check box is an option for Fire Alarm type inputs only. Selecting this option will cause all

Bells and Strobes for this panel to operate in Second Stage (Evacuation) mode. If selected, Bell and Strobe type outputs for this panel will not be selectable. This will not affect the Bell and Strobe selection of other panels.

The Msg Receive check box is an option for annunciators with LCDs only. If marked, this annunciator will receive messages about this input point to display in its Alarm List. If not marked, the annunciator will not receive messages about this input point to display in its Alarm List.

The push buttons, located on the right side of the window, are:

3.0 LCD Programming

3.1 General Comments

A number of items are programmed through the LCD and keypad. This is called the LCD menu. All options are under the PROGRAM option on the Main Menu of the panel. The Main Menu can be recalled to the LCD by pressing <Home> .

Note: The only item that must be programmed from the LCD menu is the Panel ID. This must be done before the database is downloaded.

There are multiple levels of program access. Privilege Level 0 is the base level of operation.

Privilege Level 1 allows access to privileged Hot Key functions and limited programming. Privilege

Level 2 allows programming of almost all system parameters. Higher Privilege Levels are reserved for Secutron's own use and are not discussed here. Certain functions can be assigned to different privilege levels. These functions default to the higher of the two privilege levels.

While programming through the LCD menu, the panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid key is pressed. Programming is done through a series of menus and requester screens. The menus present options to display other menus, show information, or request information (see Figure 26 ). Menus have a ">" or "<" next to the description of each item.

Use the arrow keys on the keypad to move the cursor and press <Enter> to select. In Figure 26 , pressing <Enter> will bring up the Program Menu.

MR-2900 Programming Manual

5.0 Appendix B: Stand-by Battery Calculation

5.1 General

Batteries are designed and manufactured for a specific use. "Standby" is one of these uses. They are rated according to their ability to deliver a steady current for 20 hours ("20 Hour Rating"). A 10

Ah battery is unable to deliver 10 A for 1 hour, however it will deliver ½ A (500 mA) for 20 hours. A car battery is designed to deliver "cranking" power for a short time, (a few hundred Amps for a few minutes). Unfortunately, fire alarm control panels need both of these characteristics, that is, driving a heavy bell load for a relatively short time, at the end of a 24 hour standby current drain. This protection necessitates certain over sizing.

Regardless of the standby calculation and tables, the battery must be at least 150% of the bell load. e.g. A 4 A total bell load necessitates at least 6 A hour battery (in terms of 20 hour rating).

Note: The MR-2900 Control Panel is capable of driving a bell load of 8 A maximum. This restriction must be considered when laying out a bell system.

The standard battery options available for the MR-2900 Control Unit are: a) 4 Ah internal, b) 7 Ah, c) 10 Ah, d) 24 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, e) 38 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet, f) 48 Ah external in a separate battery cabinet (not UL listed).

The components of the MR-2900 Control Panel and other devices have the following typical current draws:

6.0 Appendix C: Service Terminal

The MR-2900 Control Unit, MR-2909 Addressable Input Module and MR-2919 Addressable Input

Module will display information and accept commands via the service terminal port. The information includes initiating circuit configuration, current status of bell, relays, etc., diagnostic information, the archive, etc. The commands allow for the selection of the information to view, limited programming and basic operation. Certain Control Unit commands are available only at certain privilege levels. Units will beep once when a valid character is received and three times if an invalid character is received. If a command is not finished within about 10 seconds, the unit will beep three times and will lose any information sent.

The service terminal program provides the information on a number of different screens. When the terminal is first connected, it will be viewing whatever screen was the last viewed. To view Screen

0, which lists all the screens that are available, press

0

<Tab> . Press <Delete> to refresh the screen. Press the <Tab> key to view the next screen. See below for a complete description on the

<Tab> key commands. Certain Control Unit screens are available only at higher privilege levels.

The service terminal of the addressable modules, if any installed, is available through the Control

Unit's service terminal.

6.1 Control Unit

Screens

The Control Unit uses 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit for communication over the serial port. The default baud rate is 9600 bps.

All screens have a common status line across the top. It shows, from left to right, the current time, the current date, the current privilege level, the panel number, the current screen number and name. All available screens are listed and described below along with any key commands valid only on that screen. To view a particular screen, enter n <Tab> where n is the screen number.

7.0 Appendix D: Table of Reporting Codes

The following tables contain automatic Contact ID and SIA format reporting codes.

Contact ID: The first digit (in parentheses) will automatically be sent by the control. The second two digits are to indicate specific information about the signal. For example, if zone 1 is a fire zone, you could program the event code as [1A]. The central station would receive the following:

*FIRE* - FIRE ALARM - 1 where the “1” indicates which zone went into alarm.

SIA Format – Level 2: The SIA format used in this product follows the Level 2 specifications of the

SIA Digital Communication Standard – October 1997. This format will send the account code along with its data transmission. The transmission would look similar to the following at the receiver:N

Ri00 FA 01

N = New Event

Ri00 = System Event

FA = Fire Alarm

01 = Zone 1

MR-2900 Operator’s Manual

1.0 Unit Operation

The operation of the MR1 and MR2 programs are almost identical. This chapter applies to both programs. Those functions that are different are noted.

1.1 Power Up Sequence

The power up sequence of the panel is started in the following ways: power is applied to the panel; the hard reboot button at the top of the Inner Door is pressed; a Network Reboot command is issued; or the panel has a fault that triggers the internal watch-dog.

The LCD will first display "INITIALIZING MEMORY PLEASE WAIT". The panel will not respond to key presses or to zone activity. Once this step is done the panel will start to beep (buzzer does not sound after a Network Reboot). Press Acknowledge to silence the panel.

Panels running the MR2 program will display the message "LOADING DATABASE PLEASE

WAIT". At this time, the panels will respond to key presses, but not to input circuit conditions.

Note: Since the LCD menu is unavailable, any keys requiring a privilege level other than zero to be active will be unavailable.

When the initialization is complete, the Main Menu will be displayed on the LCD. At this time the panel is fully operational.

1.2 Types of Inputs

There are a number of types of inputs that can be used in the system. Each has different uses and limitations. They are:

• Alarm: This type of input is the normal inputs to the system from smoke detectors, heat detectors, etc. They are required to activate bells and/or strobes, as well as an LED. They can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, as well as releasers on the same panel. It displays **ALARM** in the Alarm List.

• Pull Station: This type of input is for pull stations. They are required to activate bells and/ or strobes, as well as an LED. They can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, as well as releasers on the same panel. This type cannot have a retard time. It displays **PULL STATION** in the Alarm List.

• Waterflow: This type of input is for water flow detectors. They are required to activate bells and/or strobes, as well as an LED. They can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, as well as releasers on the same panel. This type displays

**WATERFLOW** in the Alarm List. Through programming, Waterflow type alarms can make the bell circuits they activate to be non-silenceable.

• Supervisory: This type of input is for items such as Shut-Off valves and Pressure sensors for sprinkler systems. They are required to operate an LED. They cannot operate bells/ strobes but can optionally operate relays and control modules in a network, and releasers on the same panel.

• Halt: This type of input can only stop the operation of a releaser type output on the same panel. An LED is required for annunciation of the Halt function. It will use the supervisory

LED. Note: Use of this type of input must be limited access to maintain UL listing.

• Abort: This type of input can only hold the operation of a releaser type output on the same panel. This Abort function maintains the current state of the releaser. The delay timer will continue to run until 10 seconds are left. The releaser will resume normal operation as soon as the input restores. An LED is required for annunciation of the Abort function. It will use the supervisory LED.

• Monitor: This type of input used to monitor the action of items such as dampers, door, fans, etc. The supervisory LED is used. Monitor inputs can operate relays and control modules.

1

MR-2900 Operator’s Manual

• Non-Reporting: These are non-latching inputs. They are also referred to as Non-Fire.

There is no requirement that these inputs cause any action whatsoever. They use the supervisory LED for annunciation. They can operate only relays and control modules. The

LEDs, relays and control modules will follow the non-reporting input's status. The LEDs, relays and control modules operated by non-reporting inputs cannot also be operated by

Fire, Supervisory, Abort or Halt type inputs.

1.3 Status Display

The status display is the top-right section of the front panel. It is visible through the front door. It consists of the common alarm LED, common supervisory LED, common trouble LED, AC power

LED, and the clock.

The common alarm (red) and supervisory (amber or yellow) LEDs will flash with any new alarm or supervisory signal. The common trouble (yellow) LED will flash with any new zone trouble or a new panel trouble, such as low battery, bell trouble, etc. The common LEDs will react to all panel inputs plus to most conditions it displays from other panels. The AC power (green) LED is lit if AC power is on. If the AC power has failed, the common LEDs will blink slowly instead of staying on steady.

The clock shows the current time in 24 hour format. The flashing colon shows that the panel is functioning correctly. If the AC power is off, the time is not displayed but the colon continues to flash. The entire clock display flashes if the time has not been set after a Hard reboot of the panel; also if the time is not set, the panel will show a common trouble. If any memory error occurs

(Program Checksum Error, Database Mismatch, FIFO Overflow, etc.) the clock will display 4 dashes instead of the time. The buzzer will also beep rapidly to indicate the memory error. The clock will also display 4 dashes if any configuration parameter is changed which requires a Hard reboot.

1.4 Zone LEDs

The zone LEDs are along the left side of the front panel. They are visible through the front door.

Each zone has an alarm (red), supervisory (yellow or amber), and trouble (yellow) LED. The alarm and supervisory LEDs will turn on as required by the inputs. The trouble LED will light for either an input trouble condition, a ground fault or if there is a bypass present. Use the LCD and keypad

(see section 1.8 below) to determine the exact condition. A new condition is shown by a flashing

LED. After the Acknowledge button (see section 1.6 below) has been pressed, the LED will be lit steadily.

Note: If the buzzer is sounding on the panel, Acknowledge will silence the buzzer, but not latch the

LEDs. Press Acknowledge again to latch the LEDs.

For panels running the MR1 program, each set of zone LEDs corresponds to the input circuit. For panels running the MR2 program, each set of zone LEDs is programmed via the database to represent whatever logical zoning is required.

1.5 Buzzer

The buzzer gives audible indication of any new conditions in the panel. It may sound in any of four modes. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the buzzer. ( Acknowledge will need to be pressed again to latch flashing LEDs.)

The four buzzer modes are:

• Steady: This indicates any new fire alarm conditions. This mode can be disabled in the database.

• Fast: This indicates any critical failures that must be attended to. These failures can include, but are not limited to memory overflow, network reboot required, database mismatch, etc. The pattern in 50ms on/off.

2

MR-2900 Operator’s Manual

• Medium: This indicates any new supervisory conditions. The pattern is 200ms on/off.

• Slow: This indicates any new trouble conditions. The pattern in 500ms on/off.

1.6 Operator Keys

These are located below the Status Display. They are not visible through the front door. There are

Figure 1: Default Key Assignments Figure 2: Fixed Key Assignments

12 keys, each with a yellow and green LED (some keys may have red instead of yellow LEDs).

The LEDs are used to display function status. The individual keys are located under the rectangles marked PRESS, not under the key description. The key assignments are fixed for MR1 programs

(see Figure 1 ). For MR2 programs, the keys are assigned by the database. There are fixed placement function keys as shown in Figure 2 . The default layout is the same as for the MR1 program. The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed and beep three times if an invalid

(unavailable) key is pressed. The panel will record every key press in the history.

The keys and their functions are as follows:

Key Action

Acknowledge Silences the buzzer and acknowledges new troubles and alarms. If the buzzer is on, Acknowledge will silence it. If the buzzer is not on, any flashing LEDs will become steady. The green LED will flash when there is something to acknowledge.

Signal

Silence

Silences the bells. The green LED will flash when Signal Silence is available. There may be a silence inhibit before the bells can be silenced if they are activated by an

Alarm condition. The yellow LED flashes when the bells have been silenced. The bells will reactivate if a subsequent Alarm is received by the panel.

Press System Reset to reset the smoke detectors. The yellow LED also flashes if the ground fault relay is activated. Press System Reset to deactivate the ground fault relay to check for restores and additional ground faults. If ground faults remain, the relay will be re-activated after 5 to 30 seconds.

Pressing System Reset with no LEDs flashing will operate any relays that are not used by the system and deactivate any Aux Power outputs. The time they remain open is determined by the Duration time programmed. If the Duration is 0, the relay or Aux Power output will not operate.

Notes:

1.

The system cannot be reset until all circuits and devices are reset.

2.

If both LEDs are flashing, the green LED function has precedence.

3.

The green LED will remain flashing after System Reset is pressed until addressable devices have had their LEDs reset.

Prevents the automatic operation of second stage operation. This applies only to panels with ALERT or STAGED type bell systems. For ALERT systems, pressing the Second Stage Inhibit will prevent the panel from going into second stage. For

STAGED systems, it will prevent the system from going to the next stage. Second

Stage Inhibit has no effect on an EVAC type bell system. The green LED will flash when Second Stage Inhibit is available, and the yellow LED will flash when it has been activated.

Activates all the bell circuits, both regular and coded, in Alert mode. Press a second time to have all bell circuits sound in Evacuation mode. Press a third time to end the

Fire Drill. The yellow LED will flash while the Fire Drill is happening. The Fire Drill cannot be performed if the bells are already activated, or if AC power is off. The

Fire Drill is automatically ended if an alarm condition occurs.

Places panel into test mode. Press again to return to normal mode. The yellow LED will flash while in test mode. This function can be set to Privilege Level 0 or 1. It follows the Disconnect privilege level (set in MHI). During test mode, the remote annunciator zone LEDs becomes non-latching for the zone(s) under test. The common indicators, bells, relays and releasers are not activated and no commands are sent to other units and no signal is sent out of Port 3. Test signals can be archived or not as required.

Before beginning testing, the circuits/devices to be tested must be selected. All unselected circuits/devices will operate normally. Be sure that the panel is in test mode. To select circuits/devices, select PROGRAM from the Main Menu on the

LCD. The arrow keys move the cursor and the <Enter> key selects the item. Then select INITIATING CIRCUITS for MR1 programs, or ADDRESSABLE or

CONVENTIONAL for MR2 programs. Then select TEST. For conventional circuits, each zone will then be presented in turn for selection. Select either TEST or

NORMAL. For addressable devices, enter the device circuit and address for each device to be tested. <Clear> will return to the previous menu. While in Test Mode, any conventional smoke detectors activated on the test circuits will be automatically reset after 30 seconds.

When test mode is ended, all zones and devices selected for testing automatically return to normal operation.

Note: There is no Ground Fault isolation while Test Mode is active.

Disables sounding of the bells. The buzzer beeps every 2 seconds while the bells are disabled. This beeping is suppressed while a privileged level is entered in the panel. Press Signal Disconnect again to re-enable the bells. The yellow LED will flash while the bells are disabled. Signal Disconnect is not available if the bells are already activated. This function can be set to Privilege Level 0 or 1.

Disables the relays or a City Tie Module (MRCTYB). When a MRCTYB module is disconnected, a trouble will be reported to the city and then any subsequent signals will not be reported until the card is re-enabled. When the relays are disabled, the yellow LED flashes. If no relays are selected for disabling, Common Disconnect is unavailable. This function can be set to Privilege Level 0 or 1.

Initiates the general evacuation sequence. All bells are activated in Evacuation mode, selected function relays are activated and selected releaser circuits are activated and municipal alarm relay is activated. The red LED will flash when activated. Press System Reset to cancel the General Alarm. Note: General Alarm is recorded in the panel archive.

Stops the operation of all releaser type outputs on the panel. The green LED flashes when the key is available and the yellow LED flashes when it has been pressed.

Change the state of the software switch n between Auto and On. The yellow LED will flash while the switch is forced On. The green LED will flash whenever the switch is on, either automatically or forced. Switches can affect relays, control modules and LEDs. This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2.

Change the state of the software switch n between Auto and Off. The yellow LED will flash while the switch is forced Off. The green LED will flash whenever the switch is off, either automatically or forced. Switches can affect relays, control modules and LEDs. This function can be set to Privilege Level 1 or 2.

This will cause the programmed control modules to reset after the system has been reset in general. This is an MEA (New York City) requirement.

Releaser Disconnect, Relay Disconnect, Signal Disconnect, Common Disconnect, and Test Mode can be made to time out automatically after 4 hours. Releaser Disconnect, Relay Disconnect,

Signal Disconnect, Test Mode, and Common Disconnect all use the same privilege level.

1.7 Alarm List

The Alarm List contains all the current Alarms, Supervisory Conditions and Troubles. Each panel can be configured for one of three modes of operation: In Local mode, each panel only logs events generated from devices that are directly connected to it. For example, a trouble generated on

Panel #1 will not be reflected in the alarm list of Panel #2. Each archive only stores locally generated events. In Master mode, the panel defined as the master collects all network data and maintains an alarm list of all events generated in every panel. If set to Global, every panel displays all other panel’s events.

In all modes, the first/last entry of highest priority will be shown, instead of the Main Menu, if there are any entries in the Alarm List. Alarms are the highest priority, Supervisory Conditions are the

2nd priority and Troubles the 3rd priority and Non-reporting signals are the lowest priority. The

LCD back light will turn on if any new entry is received. The back light will automatically turn off in

5 minutes (30 seconds if no AC) if there is no activity.

Note: A panel that does not have extended RAM memory will not show an Alarm List.

Each entry in the Alarm List consists of one screen for MR1 programs and one to three screens for

MR2 programs. Each entry will include an event screen giving a short description of the event.

MR2 programs will add device and panel message screens as required.

To view additional entries in the Alarm List when an entry is showing, press the <Scroll> ( <A> ) key on the keypad. This will display the next/previous entry of the highest priority showing the device message, if any, otherwise the event screen is shown. Press <Scroll> again to view the next/previous entry. Use the <Up Arrow> and <Down Arrow> to rotate between screens of the event. One can also look at the next entry using the <Right Arrow> or the previous one with the

<Left Arrow> . A summary screen will be shown when all entries have been shown. To view the summary screen directly, press <Clear> at any time.

For more control in viewing the Alarm List, when the summary screen is showing press <Enter> .

Options for viewing All, Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble and Non-Reporting entries are provided.

Display can begin with the First or Last entry. Once viewing the events, one can look at the next one using the <Right Arrow> or the previous one with the <Left Arrow> . <Enter> will act as either <Left Arrow> or <Right Arrow> , whichever was pressed last. <Up Arrow> and

<Down Arrow> will rotate between pages of the event.

While viewing entries in the Alarm List, the currently displayed input can be Bypassed by pressing the <Bypass> ( <B> ) key on the keypad. This will cause the panel to consider the input to be in a normal condition.

Note: Bypass is a privileged function. A passcode will have to be entered in the system before a

Bypass will be accepted.

1.8 LCD and Keypad

The LCD and keypad are located below the Operator

Keys. The display may or may not be visible through the front door. The keypad is not visible through the front door. They are used to view the status of the panel, to view the latest events, to set the date and time and to enter a privilege passcode. The panel will beep once when a valid key is pressed, and three times if an invalid or unavailable key is pressed. The LCD back light will turn on if any key is pressed. The back light will automatically turn off in 5 minutes (30 seconds if no AC) if there is no activity.

Information is presented to the user through a series of menus and information screens. The menus present options to display other menus, show information, or request information. The panel displays the Main Menu under normal conditions. If a privilege level has been entered, it will be displayed in the Main Menu as well instead of the time. Menus have a ">" or "<" next to the description of each item. Use the arrow keys on the keypad to move the cursor and press

<Enter> to select. <Clear> returns to the previous menu without changing any information and

<Home> returns to the Main Menu without changing any information.

The Main Menu has the following selections:

• Status: Displays the current status of various parts of the panel. The following options are available:

-- More: Displays the next screen of menu options. When the last screen of the menu is displayed the next screen will be the first one again.

-- Misc. Trouble: Displays any troubles with the bells, releasers, AC power, batteries, etc., that are not shown elsewhere. Only sections in trouble will be displayed. Press

<Enter> to go to the next screen. See section 2.2 for a list of all possible messages.

-- Alarm List: Displays the Alarm List under manual control. See Alarm List above, Using the Keypad.

-- Addressable: This menu has the following options:

Select: Displays the current status of a single device. The device address is entered into the screen saying "circuit or circuit.device". If only a circuit number is entered, the first

7

MR-2900 Operator’s Manual programmed device on that circuit will be displayed. If <Enter> is pressed without any entry, the first addressable device will be displayed. <Clear> will remove any values entered. If there is no value entered, <Clear> will return to the Status Menu. If the selected device is not in the database, the next device in the database is shown.

The display shows the device address in the top left corner and the current condition codes in the top right corner (see section 2.2 for a description of the condition codes).

The second line shows the headings for the third line, which contains the analog values sent from the device. Press <Enter> to view the next device or <Clear> to get the address input screen.

Print Sensors: Prints the analog value for every addressable smoke and thermal detector. This is the value of the detector at the time the command is issued.

-- Conventional or Initiating Circuits: Displays the type, and alarm, trouble and ground fault status of each of the 24 input zones (conventional zones only). Once viewing the initiating circuit status, one can choose to look at the next circuit or the previous circuit.

<Clear> will return to the Status Menu.

The display shows:

Line 1: zone number and zone type

Line 2: factory diagnostic information

Line 4: alarm 1, alarm 2, trouble and ground fault status. Alarm 2 is used by Dual

EOLR circuits and by contact devices on Smoke Detector and Contact Device circuits. Smoke detector circuits that have alarm verification will display the number of failed verifications.

-- Print Database: This function is restricted to Level 1. Print the current configuration

(values entered through the LCD menu) and downloaded database of the panel to a printer connected to the panel's printer port. The printer port is at the bottom of the main assembly and is the one on the right.

-- Print Archive: This function is restricted to Level 1. Prints all or part of the history. A selection menu is presented to select which kinds of events to print. The choices are:

All, Alarms, Supervisory, Trouble, Monitor, Bypass and Non-reporting.

Each entry consists of one or two lines. The information provided on the first line, from the left, is:

1. Event Number

2. Time (24 Hour Clock)

3. Date (MM/DD/YY Format)

4. Condition Code and Zone Number (see section 2.1)

5. Description

A second line will be printed for addressable devices if a message exists in the database.

This history is sent to the printer port(s) and to the service terminal port if Screen 1 is active. Screen 1 of the service terminal is a copy of all items sent to the printer port.

• Archive: The archive is a list of the last 900 events (approx.). These include all signals, programming changes, time/date changes, etc., that have occurred. Test signals may or may not be recorded but "Test On" and "Test Off" are. The archive is not lost when there is a loss of both AC and battery power. Each entry includes a short description of the event, and the date and time of occurrence for events occurring at or to the panel. There may be

8

MR-2900 Operator’s Manual a second screen including information from the database. You can start by looking at either the last event (newest) or the first event (oldest). When viewing the events, scroll to the next one using the <Right Arrow> or the previous one with the <Left Arrow> .

<Enter> will act as the last <Left> or <Right> arrow key pressed. <Up Arrow> and

1.9 Silent Walk Test

The Silent Walk Test allows for single person testing of the system. This is done by providing an audio output that can be used by a radio with a microphone input. The system will produce tones through the audio output jack to give the inspector a positive indication of system behaviour. The audio jack should be connected to the Mic In or Line In of a radio. Ensure that the radio is set to automatically broadcast whenever a signal is sent to it. Alarm and supervisory conditions produce a 1500 Hz tone, trouble conditions produce a 1000 Hz tone and ground conditions produce a 500

Hz tone. Two short pulses are given for a new condition and one long pulse for a restore. Tones are generated for input circuits only. The output circuits are not part of the walk test.

To activate the walk test, first connect the radio to the audio output jack. Then activate the walk test by pressing the Test Mode key. The yellow LED next to Test Mode will flash while the Test

Mode is active. Conventional circuits and addressable devices will need to be chosen for testing.

While selected for testing, circuit and devices will not activate relays, control modules, bells, releasers or send signals to monitoring stations on port 3. Any LEDs assigned to the test inputs will follow the circuit or device state. See the section on the Test Mode key on page 5 for more information on Test Mode. All circuits and devices not chosen for testing will operate as normal.

If a printer is attached to the printer port, a print-out of all events received by the Unit can be obtained for cross-referencing with the test procedures. Test signals will be marked as such in the print-out.

Message Description

EEPROM failure not enough EEPROM to save addressable settings wrong database version or database mismatch no database for this panel

The memory chip containing the configuration information is not working correctly. It will need to be erased. This requires a Level 9 passcode.

Erasing the EEPROM will lose ALL information in the EEPROM. This includes the configuration information, the panel serial number and the archive. Be sure to record this information before you erase the

EEPROM. Contact a service representative for help and a Level 9 passcode.

The panel has a 64k EEPROM and is running an MR2 program. The addressable device bypasses and the manual operation of control modules requires a 256k EEPROM for the settings to be retained when the panel is rebooted. Note: This will not cause a common trouble on the panel.

program mismatch The version number stored in the EEPROM is different from the version number in the program. Either reload the old program or erase the

EEPROM. Erasing the EEPROM requires Privilege Level 9. Erasing the

EEPROM will lose ALL information in the EEPROM. This includes the configuration information, the panel serial number and the archive. Be sure to record this information before you erase the EEPROM. Contact a service representative for help and a Level 9 passcode.

hardware mismatch The hardware listed in the database does not match the hardware listed in the panel. Correct the database and reload.

no database loaded The panel does not have a database in memory. Load a database into the panel.

The database is the incorrect version for the operating program running.

2.4 Planning Your Installation

This system should be installed and serviced by qualified fire alarm installation professionals.

As a minimum, the following points should be considered to ensure that the installation will be successful and proceed without delay.

• Consult with your local AHJ to ensure that the overall system will meet all requirements.

Have your plans reviewed and approved as required.

• Review the electrical specifications, mounting and wiring instructions in this manual and in the manuals of all connected modules and devices.

• Using the chart in this manual, calculate the standby battery size that will meet the standby time required. Include all components that will draw current from the standby battery when the panel is in the ‘standby’ mode.

• Determine the location of the control panel, all initiating and indicating devices and remote modules and mark them on your system layout plan.

• Using the charts in this manual, determine the wire gauge and wire run distances for the connected components. (initiating devices, indicating devices and ‘secur-bus’ connected components.)

• Review the programming section of this manual and determine the operating characteristics required of the initiating zones, indicating zones and common panel features.

* Current noted assumes ONE initiating zone is in alarm. The “Max. Alarm Current” assumes all zones are in alarm.

** Values shown are for all relays set for activation on ‘Alarm’. Each relay set for activation on

‘trouble’ is normally energized and on ‘AC fail’ will draw 0 mA.

2.7 Standby Battery calculation chart

All components that draw current from the panel while it is in the ‘standby’ mode (AC OFF) must be considered for the standby battery calculation. All components that draw current while in the

‘Alarm’ mode must be considered for the alarm battery calculation.

1.

The control panel will always draw the currents as shown in the chart.

2.

Typically the alarm current is calculated assuming only one initiating zone is in alarm. If it is required that more than one zone be considered, add 60 mA per zone in the Alarm column. Consult the smoke detector manufacture’s installation sheet to determine the standby current of these devices. Write that number in the ‘current per device’ column then multiply that number by the number of devices on the zone. Repeat for each zone.

3.

Consult the Notification Appliance installation sheet to determine the current draw for each device connected to the NAC. For each NAC, calculate the total current in alarm and put that number (mA) in the ‘Alarm’ column. Note: each NAC can supply 1.5 Amps max.

4.

For each added module in the system, multiply the number of modules times the module

‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ currents and write those totals in the ‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ columns.

5.

Add up all the current drawn from the AUX+ output in the standby and alarm mode and put those totals in the ‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ columns.

6.

Add up all the currents in the ‘standby’ column and the ‘Alarm’ column.

7.

Convert the ‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ currents from mA to Amps. (divide mA by 1000)

8.

Write in the ‘standby’ time required. (24 or 60 Hr.)

9.

Multiply the ‘standby’ Amps times the ‘standby’ time to get the ‘standby’ Amp-Hr. required.

10. Write in the ‘alarm’ time required in hours. (5 min. = .08 Hr.)

11. Multiply the ‘alarm’ Amps times the ‘alarm’ time to get the ‘alarm’ Amp-Hr required.

12. Add the ‘standby’ Amp-Hr. to the ‘alarm’ Amp-Hr. for the total Amp-Hr. required.

13. Multiply the total Amp-Hr. times 1.20 for the minimum Amp-Hr. battery required to support the system for the selected ‘standby time and the selected ‘alarm’ time.

Secur-bus Capacitance

Maximum wire capacitance for proper operation of the Secur-bus is 90 nF (nanofarad). Typical wire capacitance for 22 awg quad cable is 20 nF per 1,000 feet. Thus, for 22 awg quad cable, the maximum wire run distance is ((90/20)× 1,000) = 4,500 feet . Other types of wire have different capacitance values. Consult the wire manufacturer’s data sheets for typical capacitance values.

Please note that shielded wire has a much higher capacitance value and distances are severely reduced.

The following devices may be connected to the Secur-bus. All devices are supervised. See section for adding and deleting devices on the Secur-bus.

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

5.0 Panel Operation

5.1 Operating Sequences

This section describes how the panel functions under various conditions. The choices you make in panel programming will also affect how the panel operates. Please see “6.0 Programming the

MR-2602 System” on page 23 for information on how to program the panel, and descriptions of each of the programming options.

5.2 General Zone Fire Alarms

Zone alarms have priority over all other annunciation. When an alarm occurs, the following happens:

• The corresponding zone alarm LED begins flashing, the common alarm LED turns on steady, and the alarm relay turns on.

• If a trouble was present on that zone then the zone trouble LED turns off. If the trouble buzzer is audible then it also turns off.

• The NACs sound in a steady or temporal pattern, depending on the option selected (see

“NAC Temporal/Steady Programming - Section 1 (‘NAC1’ LED on steady)” on page 28).

• If enabled, the silence inhibit timer begins counting down (see “Signal Silence Inhibit

Timer” on page 29). If the silence inhibit timer is enabled, the panel cannot be silenced for

60 seconds following the first fire alarm. Subsequent fire alarms do not restart or extend this timer. While the signal silence inhibit timer is counting down, if the Silence Alarm button is pressed the panel will sound a 1 second ‘error tone’ on the common trouble buzzer.

• The NACs remain on until silenced with the Silence Alarm button, or if the automatic alarm silence is enabled, until the thirty minute bell timer runs out (see “Automatic Signal

Silence” on page 29). If the automatic silence timer is enabled, the panel will automatically silence the NACs 30 minutes after the last fire alarm. Each zone alarm will restart the timer, giving a full 30 minutes after the last alarm before the NACs are silenced.

• Once the NACs are silenced the signals silenced LED turns on and any flashing zone alarm LEDs turn on steady. The common trouble LED and trouble relay also turn on and, if the NACs have been silenced automatically , the buzzer will sound at a rate of ½ second

ON/OFF.

Note: A manual signal silence will not initiate the trouble buzzer. Only the common trouble

LED and signals silenced LED are turned on.

• Any additional zone alarms that occur while the panel is in alarm will reset the auto alarm silence timer and turn on the NACs, but the panel will not restart the 60 second silence inhibit timer.

• The zone alarm LEDs, common alarm LED and alarm relay will remain on steady until a system reset is performed.

5.3 Waterflow Alarms

If the Waterflow Silence option is turned off (see “Silence Waterflow Alarms” on page 30), when a waterflow zone (type 03) initiates an alarm the NACs cannot be silenced until all waterflow zones are returned to normal. If all waterflow zones return to normal after the 30 minute automatic signal silence timer has expired, then the panel will silence the NACs.

If the Waterflow Silence option is turned on, then an alarm on a waterflow zone is treated like any other fire alarm.

Waterflow alarms may be delayed by 60 seconds to prevent false alarms from surges in the sprinkler system. The delay is common to all zones programmed as ‘waterflow’, type 03 zones. If the delay is not used, all waterflow alarms will be instant.

17

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

5.4 Supervisory Zone Alarms

When an alarm occurs on a supervisory zone (type 04), the corresponding zone supervisory LED begins flashing. The common supervisory LED and supervisory relay (supervisory relay is optional) turn on steady, and the buzzer turns on steady. If there was a trouble on that zone, the zone trouble LED turns off. The buzzer remains on until the trouble silence button is pressed.

Once the buzzer is silenced any flashing zone supervisory LEDs turn on steady. The zone supervisory LEDs, common supervisory LED and supervisory relay remain on steady until a system reset is performed.

Subsequent Fire Supervisory

After silencing a fire supervisory, a subsequent fire supervisory from another zone will resound the trouble/supervisory buzzer and the new zone supervisory LED flashes until the Silence Trouble button is pressed.

Supervisory / Trouble Priority

If a supervisory zone has a trouble and it goes into alarm, the zone trouble LED is extinguished until that zone is restored and the panel has been reset. The common trouble LED will remain on steady until all supervisory alarms have been restored and the panel reset. All other ‘common’ trouble indicators will operate normally.

Supervisory / Fire Alarm Priority

The supervisory zone LED, the common supervisory LED and the buzzer (in the steady supervisory mode) function normally whether there is a fire alarm present or not.

5.5 Trouble Operation

When a trouble occurs, if there is a corresponding trouble LED it turns on steady. The common trouble LED and the trouble relay also turn on. If no alarm is present on the system, the buzzer will sound at a rate of ½ second ON/OFF. The buzzer and trouble LEDs will remain on until the trouble is restored. If the Silence Trouble button is pressed, the buzzer turns off. Subsequent troubles will resound the trouble buzzer.

If there is no trouble present in the system then pressing the Silence Trouble button will result in a

1 second error tone.

Please see the following table for a list of system faults that will initiate a trouble.

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

5.6 System Reset Operation

To reset the system, press the ‘Reset System’ button. The panel will remove all power from the zones and the switched auxiliary relay for 10 seconds. During this 10 second period, the buzzer will beep twice every 2 seconds.

The panel can only be reset if:

• the NACs have been silenced

• the supervisory buzzer has been silenced

• and all waterflow zones are restored (only applies if the Silence Waterflow option is turned off - see “Silence Waterflow Alarms” on page 30).

If the panel is not in a condition to be reset, when the ‘Reset System’ button is pressed the panel will sound a 1 second error tone on the buzzer.

After the 10 second reset period, the panel will turn off the zone LED for any zones that have been restored. If one or more zones is still in alarm after the reset period, the panel will activate the

NACs as programmed. If there are no alarms but one or more Supervisory zones is still ‘offnormal’ after the reset period, the panel will sound the trouble buzzer in the Supervisory mode. If there are no alarms or supervisory conditions but a trouble is present in the panel after the reset period, the panel will sound the trouble buzzer. After the reset period, LEDs for any alarms, supervisory off-normal or trouble conditions will be on.

5.7 Lamp Test

The lamp test will check all of the panel and annunciator LEDs. To do a lamp test, press and hold the Lamp Test button. All the LEDs will flash.

A lamp test will only work if the NACs are not active and the supervisory buzzer is not active. If a lamp test is unsuccessful the buzzer will sound a 1 second error tone. If any trouble or zone has a state change during lamp test, the lamp test will be cancelled and the panel will return to normal operation.

20

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

5.8 Walk Test (Installer function only)

To do a walk test, all zone alarms, troubles and relays must be in their normal state. You can program the walk test to be either audible or silent (see “Audible Walk Test” on page 29).

5.9 NAC operation

See also “NAC Temporal/Steady Programming - Section 1 (‘NAC1’ LED on steady)” on page 28, and “NAC Auto-silence and Strobe Programming - Section 2 (‘NAC2’ LED on steady)” on page 29 for more information.

Class ‘B’ operation selections:

• Steady (default) – On alarm the NAC will turn on steady. It will turn off on either a manual or automatic signal silence.

• Temporal 3 – On alarm the NAC will turn on with the temporal 3 pattern and turn off on either a manual or automatic signal silence.

• NAC2 Strobe – On alarm NAC2 will turn on steady. It will not turn off on a manual or automatic signal silence. NAC2 set in this mode will only turn off on system reset if all zone fire alarms are restored. Only NAC2 can be set in this mode.

Class ‘A’ operation selections

If the panel NACs are set for class ‘A’ operation then there is only one NAC. In this configuration the NAC output can only be set for steady or temporal using the NAC1 programming options For class ‘A’, the NAC2 Strobe option is not available.

5.10 Relay Function

Alarm Relay

The panel activates the alarm relay upon any (non-supervisory) zone alarm. The panel deactivates the alarm relay upon a successful system reset.

Trouble Relay

The panel deactivates the trouble relay upon any system trouble. The panel activates the trouble relay upon the restoral of all system troubles.

Supervisory Relay (available with the MR-2602-R3 Relay Expander only)

The panel activates the supervisory relay upon any supervisory zone alarm. The panel deactivates the supervisory relay upon a successful system reset.

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

6.0 Programming the MR-2602 System

6.1 How to Program the MR-2602

You can program the panel using the controls and indicator LEDs. There are no DIP switches to set for programming.

Once programmed, the operating modes selected are maintained in non-volatile memory that will retain the programmed information even if all power is removed from the panel.

Entering the Programming mode

All zone alarms must be reset prior to entering the programming mode. While the panel is in programming mode, the annunciators will show a trouble condition.

1.

Remove the lower front cover and locate the ‘Walk Test Switch’ behind the control panel

PCB, as shown below.

2.

Press and hold the Walk Test Switch for two seconds. The common trouble buzzer and common trouble LED turn on and pulse ½ second on/off.

3.

Press any button. The trouble buzzer is silent, and the zone 1 alarm LED turns on steady.

The common trouble LED continues to flash.

4.

The panel is now ready to program.

Programming the Panel

The control panel has six different programming sections, which are shown in the table below. The

Panel Status LEDs indicate which programming section you are currently in.

23

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

When you first enter programming mode, the panel will be at zone programming (section 0). Each programming section has one or more programming sub-sections (e.g. section 0 has sub-sections for zones 1 through 5). Use the Silence Trouble and Silence Alarm buttons to enter your programming choices:

1.

Each sub-section in a section will have 2 or more programming settings, indicated by the panel Zone Supervisory and Zone Trouble LEDs. To scroll through the programming settings, press the Silence Alarm button. Please see “6.2 Programming Section Descriptions” on page 25 for descriptions of each section and settings, and the LED indications for each setting.

2.

When the LEDs show the setting you want for a sub-section, move to the next programming sub-section by pressing the Silence Trouble button. The panel will save the indicated settings when you exit the programming mode or go to the next programming section.

3.

When you have programmed all the sub-sections in a section, the panel will move to the next programming section when you press the Silence Trouble button.

Pressing Silence Trouble will advance forward through each programming sub-section, and each section.

Example: in the Zone 1 programming sub-section, pressing Silence Alarm will scroll through each zone type setting (null zone, instant zone, auto-verify zone, etc.). When the panel shows the zone type you want for zone 1, press Silence Trouble to move on to Zone 2 programming.

Exiting the Programming Mode

When you come to the end of all the programming sections, press Silence Trouble to exit the programming mode.

To exit programming mode at any other point in the panel programming, press and hold the Walk

Test switch for two seconds.

If 5 minutes elapse without any button presses, the panel will automatically exit the programming mode. During the final 60 seconds before the exit, the panel will sound a warning tone on the buzzer. Press any button to cancel the auto-exit and resume programming.

After you exit the programming mode, the panel performs a system reset for 10 seconds, during which the buzzer sounds double beeps. When the beeping stops the panel returns to normal operating mode and all programming choices are stored in memory.

24

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

6.2 Programming Section Descriptions

Zone Programming (Section 0)

In this zone programming section, the panel uses the zone alarm, supervisory, and trouble LEDs to indicate the programming as follows:

Zone type 00 – Null zone (Not used)

The zone is not used. The zone is not supervised, alarms and troubles are ignored. The end-of-line resistor is not required.

Zone type 01 – Instant alarm for 2-wire smoke detectors and contact devices

Zone type 01 does not differentiate between 2-wire smoke detectors, contact devices, or 4-wire smoke detectors. When a

2-wire smoke detector, 4 –wire smoke detector or contact device goes into alarm:

1.

The panel goes into alarm without any delay. If an instant zone goes into alarm, any auto-verify sequence in progress on another zone will be immediately cancelled and both zones will indicate an alarm condition.

25

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

Zone type 02 - Auto-Verify for 2-wire smoke detectors

Zone type 02 can distinguish between 2-wire smoke detector activation and contact activation. This allows you to have manual pullstations and smoke detectors on the same 2-wire zone. With this zone type, smoke detector activation starts the auto-verify sequence, and a contact closure (pullstation activation) initiates an immediate alarm.

When a 2-wire smoke detector on an auto-verify zone goes into alarm:

1.

Power is removed from the zone for 25 seconds to reset the smoke detector(s).

2.

After the verification period starts (power removed) if any contact device on that zone is activated, the verification sequence is cancelled, and the panel goes into immediate alarm.

3.

Power is restored to the zone at the end of the 25 second reset period.

4.

For the next 95 seconds, any smoke detector or contact device that goes into alarm will cause the panel to immediately go into alarm, activate the NACs, the visual indicators and the common alarm relay.

5.

If during the total verification period (120 sec.), any other zone on the panel goes into alarm, the verification sequence is cancelled and the panel immediately goes into alarm.

6.

If two auto-verify zones activate simultaneously, both verification sequences are cancelled and the panel immediately goes into alarm.

When a contact alarm initiating device (pullstation) on an autoverify zone goes into alarm:

1.

The panel immediately goes into alarm. Any auto-verification sequence that may be active will be cancelled.

26

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

Zone type 03 – Waterflow zone

This zone type is intended for waterflow alarm initiating contact devices only. Do not mix other alarm initiating devices on this zone. You can set the panel to include a fixed timer that will delay all ‘Waterflow’ type zone alarms for 60 seconds.

CAUTION: Do not use the waterflow delay timer when:

• The monitored Waterflow alarm actuating devices have a built-in delay of 30 seconds or more. The overall maximum waterflow alarm initiation delay allowed is 90 seconds.

(NFPA A-5-6.2 – 1996 edition)

• The sprinkler system includes ‘ON/OFF’ type sprinkler heads. Such sprinkler heads can cycle on and off within 30 seconds thus preventing an alarm from being registered.

When the contact on a Waterflow alarm initialing device is activated:

1.

If the waterflow delay is not used, the control panel will go into alarm instantly.

2.

If the waterflow delay is used, the waterflow timer will start on the first waterflow alarm. Subsequent waterflow alarms will not restart the 60 second timer.

Once the 60 second time expires, if any waterflow zones are still in alarm, the panel will initiate an immediate alarm. If all waterflow zones have restored at the end of the 60 seconds, an alarm will not be initiated.

Zone type 04 – Supervisory zone

When the contact on a Supervisory device is initiated:

1.

The control panel will immediately indicate the Supervisory

“off-normal” condition.

2.

The zone supervisory LED (yellow) will flash, the common

‘supervisory’ LED will come on steady and the common trouble buzzer will sound steadily. Pressing the ‘trouble silence’ switch will silence the buzzer and the zone supervisory LED will stop flashing and turn on steadily.

3.

Fire supervisory zones are latching and can only be restored when the initiating device is restored and a system reset is performed.

27

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

Zone type 05 – Auto-verify for four-wire smoke detectors

This zone type is intended for the alarm initiating contacts from

4-wire smoke detectors only and provides the ability to autoverify alarms from those smoke detectors.

CAUTION: Do not mix alarm initiating or supervisory initiating devices on the same zone with 4-wire smoke detector alarm initiating contacts.

When a 4-wire smoke detector on an auto-verify zone goes into alarm:

1.

The panel open circuits the ‘SCOM’ line, removing power from all 4-wire smoke detectors in the system.

2.

At the end of the 25 second reset period, power is restored to the zone and to all 4-wire smoke detectors. For 95 seconds following the reset period, if any smoke detector on that zone is still in alarm, the panel will activate the NACs as programmed, the visual indicators and the common alarm relay.

3.

If during the total verification period (120 seconds), any other zone on the panel goes into alarm, the verification sequence is cancelled and the panel immediately goes into alarm. If two auto-verify zones activate simultaneously, both verification sequences are cancelled and the panel goes into alarm without any delay.

NAC Temporal/Steady Programming - Section 1 (‘NAC1’ LED on steady)

You can individually program both NAC1 and NAC2 to sound in either a temporal or steady pattern. By default, both NAC outputs are programmed as steady.

Temporal

The NAC1 will sound the Temporal/ANSI Fire Pattern: 0.5

seconds ON, 0.5 seconds OFF, 0.5 seconds ON, 0.5 seconds

OFF, 0.5 seconds ON, 1.5 seconds OFF, repeat.

The NAC2 will sound the Temporal/ANSI Fire Pattern: 0.5

seconds ON, 0.5 seconds OFF, 0.5 seconds ON, 0.5 seconds

OFF, 0.5 seconds ON, 1.5 seconds OFF, repeat.

Steady

The NAC1 will sound continuously.

The NAC2 will sound continuously.

28

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

NAC Auto-silence and Strobe Programming - Section 2 (‘NAC2’ LED on steady)

Automatic Signal Silence

If Automatic Signal Silence is enabled, 30 minutes after the last fire alarm on the system, the panel restores the NACs to normal

(alarms are silenced).

If another alarm occurs after the NACs are silenced, the panel will restart the timer for another 30 minute period.

If Automatic Signal Silence is disabled, the panel will not silence the NACs automatically.

NAC2 Strobe

If this option is enabled, on alarm, NAC2 turns on steady and does not turn off on automatic signal silence, or when the

Silence Alarm button is pressed. When NAC2 is set to this mode, it can only be turned off when all zone fire alarms are restored, and the system is reset. Only NAC2 can be set to this mode.

If this option is disabled, the panel will restore NAC2 to normal following an automatic signal silence (see Automatic Signal

Silence, above), or following a press of the ‘Silence Alarm’ button.

Silence Inhibit and Walk Test Programming - Section 3 (‘Battery’ LED on steady)

Signal Silence Inhibit Timer

If the Signal Silence Inhibit Timer is enabled, when the first alarm is activated, the panel will begin a 60 second countdown. During this 60 seconds, users will not be able to turn off the NACs by pressing the Silence Alarm button. The timer is started on the first alarm only and is not restarted on subsequent alarms.

If the Signal Silence Inhibit Timer is disabled, users will be able to turn off the NACs at any time, by pressing the Silence Alarm button.

If NAC2 is set as a strobe, users will never be able to turn off

NAC2 using the Silence Alarm button. See “NAC2 Strobe” on page 28.

Audible Walk Test

You can set the One Man Walk Test to be either audible or silent.

If the One Man Walk Test is set for audible, then the following will occur:

• On a fire or Supervisory alarm/restoral the bells will pulse

ONCE

• On a zone or system trouble/restoral, except ground fault, the bells will pulse TWICE

• On any ground fault/restoral the bells will pulse THREE times.

If the One Man Walk Test is set for silent, the bells will not sound during the walk test.

29

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

Waterflow Programming - Section 4 (‘Ground Fault’ LED on steady)

Delay Waterflow Alarms

If the Waterflow Alarm Delay option is turned on, the panel will start a 60 second timer when the first Waterflow zone goes into alarm. The panel will not restart the timer on subsequent

Waterflow zone alarms. When the timer expires, if any waterflow zone is still in alarm, the panel will immediately go into alarm. If any other type of fire zone goes into alarm during the waterflow delay countdown, the panel will immediately go into alarm in response to that zone.

If the Waterflow Alarm Delay option is turned off, alarms on

Waterflow zones will cause an immediate alarm in the panel.

Silence Waterflow Alarms

If the Silence Waterflow Alarms option is turned on, Waterflow zones can be silenced whether the zones are physically restored or not.

If the Silence Waterflow Alarms option is turned off, Waterflow zones cannot be silenced until they are physically restored. This applies to both automatic signal silence, and the Silence Alarm button. If there is a trouble on a Waterflow zone following the alarm and alarm restore, the zone can be silenced.

Auto-Verify Programming - Section 5 (‘Signals Silence’ LED on steady)

If the Auto Verify Fault is Alarm option is turned on, the following will occur:

• if a zone initiates an auto-verify sequence and returns from power down in the trouble state, the system will treat this as an ALARM condition and assume that the circuit has been forced open by fire. Please see “Zone Programming (Section

0)” on page 25 for more information on auto-verify zones.

If the Auto Verify Fault is Trouble option is turned on, the following will occur:

• if a zone initiates an auto-verify sequence and returns from power down in the trouble state, the system will treat this as an TROUBLE condition. Please see “Zone Programming

(Section 0)” on page 25 for more information on auto-verify zones.

7.0 Startup of the MR-2602

7.1 Prior to power up

• Verify that all field wiring is free of shorts, opens and grounds and that end-of-line devices are connected and are the proper value.

• Verify that all modules and internal cables are properly seated in their location.

• Verify that all metal components are bonded to the incoming ground. Should measure zero ohms between any metal part and the incoming ground wire.

• Verify that the polarity between the panel and connected devices is correct.

7.2 Power up sequence

• Connect the battery FIRST. The panel will not power up on the battery alone.

• Apply AC power. The panel will power up as follows:

• The panel goes into the Reset mode immediately. This lasts for 10 seconds and the trouble buzzer will beep during the reset period.

• After the reset period ends, the buzzer goes silent, the green AC indicator should be ON and all other LEDs should be OFF.

• If any LED other than the AC LED is ON then there is a fault in the system. Troubleshoot and repair the fault before proceeding.

• If the battery is not fully charged, the battery fault LED will come on after about 2 minutes.

Verify that the battery is connected properly and if it is, it may take up to 24 hours to recharge the batteries. Once the battery is charged, the battery fault LED will go OFF.

7.3 Default Operation

• On first power up, all programmable features will be in the default mode.

• Do a ‘Lamp Test’ to verify that all the indicators function.

• It is suggested that an initial verification of operation be done before the panel is programmed. Verify that each zone will go into alarm and that each NAC operates the

Notification Appliances and that the zone alarm indicator(s) function. Each zone is defaulted as an instant ‘fire alarm’ and each NAC is defaulted for ‘steady’ output on alarm.

An Alarm, Silence, Reset cycle will also verify that the push-button function properly.

• Verify that each zone indicates a trouble on a zone open and that a ground fault on the extended conductors is properly indicated.

7.4 Programming the Panel

• Program the panel for the operational features desired. (section 6)

• Record your configuration choices for future reference. (section 8)

• Verify panel operations and feature selections by initiating alarms and troubles as described above.

7.5 Final Verification

• Verify system operation and fault detection as required by the local Authority Having

Jurisdiction.

• Enable the ‘one-man’ walk test feature to test all the field devices and wiring.

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not

43

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most products contain software. With respect to those products, does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time.

Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the

Local Authority Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

44

MR-2602 Installation & Operator’s Manual

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

1.4 System Verification

The complete fire alarm system must be verified for proper installation and operation when:

• the initial installation is ready for inspection by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction;

• any system component is added, changed or deleted;

• any programming changes are made;

• system wiring has been altered or repaired;

• system failure due to external influences such as lightning, water damage or extended power outages has occurred.

1.5 Standby Power

The MR-2605 provides standby battery support for lead-acid rechargeable batteries. The required capacity of the standby batteries must be calculated using the charts and tables within this manual for the period as required by national or local codes and standards. Even though the calculation table within this manual includes a safety margin, lead-acid batteries commonly used for standby can have variable capacity as a result of age and ambient conditions. Periodic inspection for damage and the batteries’ ability to support the attached equipment is highly recommended.

2.4 Planning Your Installation

This system should be installed and serviced by qualified fire alarm installation professionals.

As a minimum, the following points should be considered to ensure that the installation will be successful and proceed without delay.

• Consult with your local AHJ to ensure that the overall system will meet all requirements.

Have your plans reviewed and approved as required.

• Review the electrical specifications, mounting and wiring instructions in this manual and in the manuals of all connected modules and devices.

• Using the chart in this manual, calculate the standby battery size that will meet the standby time required. Include all components that will draw current from the standby battery when the panel is in the ‘standby’ mode.

• Determine the location of the control panel, all initiating and indicating devices and remote modules and mark them on your system layout plan.

• Using the charts in this manual, determine the wire gauge and wire run distances for the connected components. (initiating devices, indicating devices and ‘secur-bus’ connected components.)

• Review the programming section of this manual and determine the operating characteristics required of the initiating zones, indicating zones and common panel features.

** Values shown are for all relays set for activation on ‘Alarm’. Each relay set for activation on

‘trouble’ is normally energized and on ‘AC fail’ will draw 0 mA.

2.7 Standby Battery calculation chart

All components that draw current from the panel while it is in the ‘standby’ mode (AC OFF) must be considered for the standby battery calculation. All components that draw current while in the

‘Alarm’ mode must be considered for the alarm battery calculation.

1.

The control panel will always draw the currents as shown in the chart.

2.

Typically the alarm current is calculated assuming only one initiating zone is in alarm. If it is required that more than one zone be considered, add 60 mA per zone in the Alarm column. Consult the smoke detector manufacture’s installation sheet to determine the standby current of these devices. Write that number in the ‘current per device’ column then multiply that number by the number of devices on the zone. Repeat for each zone.

3.

Consult the Notification Appliance installation sheet to determine the current draw for each device connected to the NAC. For each NAC, calculate the total current in alarm and put that number (mA) in the ‘Alarm’ column. Note: each NAC can supply 1.5 Amps max.

4.

For each added module in the system, multiply the number of modules times the module

‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ currents and write those totals in the ‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ columns.

5.

Add up all the current drawn from the AUX+ output in the standby and alarm mode and put those totals in the ‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ columns.

6.

Add up all the currents in the ‘standby’ column and the ‘Alarm’ column.

7.

Convert the ‘standby’ and ‘alarm’ currents from mA to Amps. (divide mA by 1000)

8.

Write in the ‘standby’ time required. (24 or 60 Hr.)

9.

Multiply the ‘standby’ Amps times the ‘standby’ time to get the ‘standby’ Amp-Hr. required.

10. Write in the ‘alarm’ time required in hours. (5 min. = .08 Hr.)

11. Multiply the ‘alarm’ Amps times the ‘alarm’ time to get the ‘alarm’ Amp-Hr required.

12. Add the ‘standby’ Amp-Hr. to the ‘alarm’ Amp-Hr. for the total Amp-Hr. required.

13. Multiply the total Amp-Hr. times 1.20 for the minimum Amp-Hr. battery required to support the system for the selected ‘standby time and the selected ‘alarm’ time.

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

To calculate the wire run distance for any gauge wire and any maximum current value, use the following formula:

Rmax = ohms 1.25

Imax

Amps

Distance = Rmax × 1,000

2(wire resistance in ohms per 1,000 feet) feet

Secur-bus Capacitance

Maximum wire capacitance for proper operation of the Secur-bus is 90 nF (nanofarad). Typical wire capacitance for 22 awg quad cable is 20 nF per 1,000 feet. Thus, for 22 awg quad cable, the maximum wire run distance is ((90/20)× 1,000) = 4,500 feet . Other types of wire have different capacitance values. Consult the wire manufacturer’s data sheets for typical capacitance values.

Please note that shielded wire has a much higher capacitance value and distances are severely reduced.

The following devices may be connected to the Secur-bus. All devices are supervised. See the section Reset Section Programming on page 31 for information on adding and deleting devices on the Secur-bus.

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

5.0 Panel Operation

5.1 Operating Sequences

This section describes how the panel functions under various conditions. The choices you make in panel programming will also affect how the panel operates. Please see “6.0 Programming the

MR-2605 System” on page 24 for information on how to program the panel, and descriptions of each of the programming options.

5.2 General Zone Fire Alarms

Zone alarms have priority over all other annunciation. When an alarm occurs, the following happens:

• The corresponding zone alarm LED begins flashing, the common alarm LED turns on steady, and the alarm relay turns on.

• If a trouble was present on that zone then the zone trouble LED turns off. If the trouble buzzer is audible then it also turns off.

• The NACs sound in a steady or temporal pattern, depending on the option selected (see

“Steady” on page 29).

• If enabled, the silence inhibit timer begins counting down (see “Silence Inhibit and Walk

Test Programming - Section 3 (‘Battery’ LED on steady)” on page 30). If the silence inhibit timer is enabled, the panel cannot be silenced for 60 seconds following the first fire alarm.

Subsequent fire alarms do not restart or extend this timer. While the signal silence inhibit timer is counting down, if the Silence Alarm button is pressed the panel will sound a 1 second ‘error tone’ on the common trouble buzzer.

• The NACs remain on until silenced with the Silence Alarm button, or if the automatic alarm silence is enabled, until the thirty minute bell timer runs out (see “NAC Auto-silence and

Strobe Programming - Section 2 (‘NAC2’ LED on steady)” on page 29). If the automatic silence timer is enabled, the panel will automatically silence the NACs 30 minutes after the last fire alarm. Each zone alarm will restart the timer, giving a full 30 minutes after the last alarm before the NACs are silenced.

• Once the NACs are silenced the signals silenced LED turns on and any flashing zone alarm LEDs turn on steady. The common trouble LED and trouble relay also turn on and, if the NACs have been silenced automatically , the buzzer will sound at a rate of ½ second

ON/OFF.

Note: A manual signal silence will not initiate the trouble buzzer. Only the common trouble

LED and signals silenced LED are turned on.

• Any additional zone alarms that occur while the panel is in alarm will reset the auto alarm silence timer and turn on the NACs, but the panel will not restart the 60 second silence inhibit timer.

• The zone alarm LEDs, common alarm LED and alarm relay will remain on steady until a system reset is performed.

5.3 Waterflow Alarms

If the Waterflow Silence option is turned off (see “Auto-Verify Programming - Section 5 (‘Signals

Silence’ LED on steady)” on page 31), when a waterflow zone (type 03) initiates an alarm the

NACs cannot be silenced until all waterflow zones are returned to normal. If all waterflow zones return to normal after the 30 minute automatic signal silence timer has expired, then the panel will silence the NACs.

If the Waterflow Silence option is turned on, then an alarm on a waterflow zone is treated like any other fire alarm.

18

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Waterflow alarms may be delayed by 60 seconds to prevent false alarms from surges in the sprinkler system. The delay is common to all zones programmed as ‘waterflow’, type 03 zones. If the delay is not used, all waterflow alarms will be instant.

5.4 Supervisory Zone Alarms

When an alarm occurs on a supervisory zone (type 04), the corresponding zone supervisory LED begins flashing. The common supervisory LED and supervisory relay (supervisory relay is optional) turn on steady, and the buzzer turns on steady. If there was a trouble on that zone, the zone trouble LED turns off. The buzzer remains on until the trouble silence button is pressed.

Once the buzzer is silenced any flashing zone supervisory LEDs turn on steady. The zone supervisory LEDs, common supervisory LED and supervisory relay remain on steady until a system reset is performed.

Subsequent Fire Supervisory

After silencing a fire supervisory, a subsequent fire supervisory from another zone will resound the trouble/supervisory buzzer and the new zone supervisory LED flashes until the Silence Trouble button is pressed.

Supervisory / Trouble Priority

If a supervisory zone has a trouble and it goes into alarm, the zone trouble LED is extinguished until that zone is restored and the panel has been reset. The common trouble LED will remain on steady until all supervisory alarms have been restored and the panel reset. All other ‘common’ trouble indicators will operate normally.

Supervisory / Fire Alarm Priority

The supervisory zone LED, the common supervisory LED and the buzzer (in the steady supervisory mode) function normally whether there is a fire alarm present or not.

5.5 Trouble Operation

When a trouble occurs, if there is a corresponding trouble LED it turns on steady. The common trouble LED and the trouble relay also turn on. If no alarm is present on the system, the buzzer will sound at a rate of ½ second ON/OFF. The buzzer and trouble LEDs will remain on until the trouble is restored. If the Silence Trouble button is pressed, the buzzer turns off. Subsequent troubles will resound the trouble buzzer.

Note: If there is no trouble present in the system then pressing the Silence Trouble button will result in a 1 second error tone.

Please see the following table for a list of system faults that will initiate a trouble.

5.6 System Reset Operation

To reset the system, press the ‘Reset System’ button. The panel will remove all power from the zones and the switched auxiliary relay for 10 seconds. During this 10 second period, the buzzer will beep twice every 2 seconds.

The panel can only be reset if:

• the NACs have been silenced

• the supervisory buzzer has been silenced

• and all waterflow zones are restored (only applies if the Silence Waterflow option is turned off - see “Auto-Verify Programming - Section 5 (‘Signals Silence’ LED on steady)” on page 31).

If the panel is not in a condition to be reset, when the ‘Reset System’ button is pressed the panel will sound a 1 second error tone on the buzzer.

After the 10 second reset period, the panel will turn off the zone LED for any zones that have been restored. If one or more zones is still in alarm after the reset period, the panel will activate the

NACs as programmed. If there are no alarms but one or more Supervisory zones is still ‘offnormal’ after the reset period, the panel will sound the trouble buzzer in the Supervisory mode. If there are no alarms or supervisory conditions but a trouble is present in the panel after the reset period, the panel will sound the trouble buzzer. After the reset period, LEDs for any alarms, supervisory off-normal or trouble conditions will be on.

5.7 Lamp Test

The lamp test will check all of the panel and annunciator LEDs. To do a lamp test, press and hold the Lamp Test button. All the LEDs will flash.

A lamp test will only work if the NACs are not active and the supervisory buzzer is not active. If a lamp test is unsuccessful the buzzer will sound a 1 second error tone. If any trouble or zone has a state change during lamp test, the lamp test will be cancelled and the panel will return to normal operation.

21

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

5.8 Walk Test (Installer function only)

To do a walk test, all zone alarms, troubles and relays must be in their normal state. You can program the walk test to be either audible or silent (see “Audible Walk Test” on page 30).

1.

To walk test the panel press the Walk Test button. The common trouble LED flashes and the buzzer sounds one short beep. The panel will be in walk test mode for one hour, or until you press the Walk Test button again.

5.9 NAC operation

See also “Steady” on page 29, and “NAC Auto-silence and Strobe Programming - Section 2

(‘NAC2’ LED on steady)” on page 29 for more information.

Class ‘B’ operation selections:

• Steady (default) – On alarm the NAC will turn on steady. It will turn off on either a manual or automatic signal silence.

• Temporal 3 – On alarm the NAC will turn on with the temporal 3 pattern and turn off on either a manual or automatic signal silence.

• NAC2 Strobe – On alarm NAC2 will turn on steady. It will not turn off on a manual or automatic signal silence. NAC2 set in this mode will only turn off on system reset if all zone fire alarms are restored. Only NAC2 can be set in this mode.

Class ‘A’ operation selections

If the panel NACs are set for class ‘A’ operation then there is only one NAC. In this configuration the NAC output can only be set for steady or temporal using the NAC1 programming options For class ‘A’, the NAC2 Strobe option is not available.

5.10 Relay Function

Alarm Relay

The panel activates the alarm relay upon any (non-supervisory) zone alarm. The panel deactivates the alarm relay upon a successful system reset.

Trouble Relay

The panel deactivates the trouble relay upon any system trouble. The panel activates the trouble relay upon the restoral of all system troubles.

Supervisory Relay (available with the MR-2605-R3 Relay Expander only)

The panel activates the supervisory relay upon any supervisory zone alarm. The panel deactivates the supervisory relay upon a successful system reset.

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

6.0 Programming the MR-2605 System

6.1 How to Program the MR-2605

You can program the panel using the controls and indicator LEDs. There are no DIP switches to set for programming.

Once programmed, the operating modes selected are maintained in non-volatile memory that will retain the programmed information even if all power is removed from the panel.

Entering the Programming mode

All zone alarms must be reset prior to entering the programming mode. While the panel is in programming mode, the annunciators will show a trouble condition.

1.

Remove the lower front cover and locate the ‘Walk Test Switch’ behind the control panel

PCB, as shown below.

2.

Press and hold the Walk Test Switch for two seconds. The common trouble buzzer and common trouble LED turn on and pulse ½ second on/off.

3.

Press any button. The trouble buzzer is silent, and the zone 1 alarm LED turns on steady.

The common trouble LED continues to flash.

4.

The panel is now ready to program.

Programming the Panel

The control panel has six different programming sections, which are shown in the table below. The

Panel Status LEDs indicate which programming section you are currently in.

24

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

When you first enter programming mode, the panel will be at zone programming (section 0). Each programming section has one or more programming sub-sections (e.g. section 0 has sub-sections for zones 1 through 5). Use the Silence Trouble and Silence Alarm buttons to enter your programming choices:

1.

Each sub-section in a section will have 2 or more programming settings, indicated by the panel Zone Supervisory and Zone Trouble LEDs. To scroll through the programming settings, press the Silence Alarm button. Please see “6.2 Programming Section Descriptions” on page 26 for descriptions of each section and settings, and the LED indications for each setting.

2.

When the LEDs show the setting you want for a sub-section, move to the next programming sub-section by pressing the Silence Trouble button. The panel will save the indicated settings when you exit the programming mode or go to the next programming section.

3.

When you have programmed all the sub-sections in a section, the panel will move to the next programming section when you press the Silence Trouble button.

Pressing Silence Trouble will advance forward through each programming sub-section, and each section.

Example: in the Zone 1 programming sub-section, pressing Silence Alarm will scroll through each zone type setting (null zone, instant zone, auto-verify zone, etc.). When the panel shows the zone type you want for zone 1, press Silence Trouble to move on to Zone 2 programming.

Exiting the Programming Mode

When you come to the end of all the programming sections, press Silence Trouble to exit the programming mode.

To exit programming mode at any other point in the panel programming, press and hold the Walk

Test switch for two seconds.

If 5 minutes elapse without any button presses, the panel will automatically exit the programming mode. During the final 60 seconds before the exit, the panel will sound a warning tone on the buzzer. Press any button to cancel the auto-exit and resume programming.

After you exit the programming mode, the panel performs a system reset for 10 seconds, during which the buzzer sounds double beeps. When the beeping stops the panel returns to normal operating mode and all programming choices are stored in memory.

25

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

6.2 Programming Section Descriptions

Zone Programming (Section 0)

In this zone programming section, the panel uses the zone alarm, supervisory, and trouble LEDs to indicate the programming as follows:

Zone type 00 – Null zone (Not used)

The zone is not used. The zone is not supervised, alarms and troubles are ignored. The end-of-line resistor is not required.

Zone type 01 – Instant alarm for 2-wire smoke detectors and contact devices

Zone type 01 does not differentiate between 2-wire smoke detectors, contact devices, or 4-wire smoke detectors. When a 2-wire smoke detector, 4 –wire smoke detector or contact device goes into alarm:

The panel goes into alarm without any delay. If an instant zone goes into alarm, any auto-verify sequence in progress on another zone will be immediately cancelled and both zones will indicate an alarm condition.

26

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Zone type 02 - Auto-Verify for 2-wire smoke detectors

Zone type 02 can distinguish between 2-wire smoke detector activation and contact activation. This allows you to have manual pullstations and smoke detectors on the same 2-wire zone. With this zone type, smoke detector activation starts the auto-verify sequence, and a contact closure

(pullstation activation) initiates an immediate alarm.

When a 2-wire smoke detector on an auto-verify zone goes into alarm:

1.

Power is removed from the zone for 25 seconds to reset the smoke detector(s).

2.

After the verification period starts (power removed) if any contact device on that zone is activated, the verification sequence is cancelled, and the panel goes into immediate alarm.

3.

Power is restored to the zone at the end of the 25 second reset period.

4.

For the next 95 seconds, any smoke detector or contact device that goes into alarm will cause the panel to immediately go into alarm, activate the NACs, the visual indicators and the common alarm relay.

5.

If during the total verification period (120 sec.), any other zone on the panel goes into alarm, the verification sequence is cancelled and the panel immediately goes into alarm.

6.

If two auto-verify zones activate simultaneously, both verification sequences are cancelled and the panel immediately goes into alarm.

When a contact alarm initiating device (pullstation) on an auto-verify zone goes into alarm:

1.

The panel immediately goes into alarm. Any auto-verification sequence that may be active will be cancelled.

27

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Zone type 03 – Waterflow zone

This zone type is intended for waterflow alarm initiating contact devices only. Do not mix other alarm initiating devices on this zone. You can set the panel to include a fixed timer that will delay all ‘Waterflow’ type zone alarms for 60 seconds.

CAUTION: Do not use the waterflow delay timer when:

• The monitored Waterflow alarm actuating devices have a built-in delay of 30 seconds or more. The overall maximum waterflow alarm initiation delay allowed is 90 seconds. (NFPA A-5-6.2 –

1996 edition)

• The sprinkler system includes ‘ON/OFF’ type sprinkler heads.

Such sprinkler heads can cycle on and off within 30 seconds thus preventing an alarm from being registered.

When the contact on a Waterflow alarm initialing device is activated:

1.

If the waterflow delay is not used, the control panel will go into alarm instantly.

If the waterflow delay is used, the waterflow timer will start on the first waterflow alarm. Subsequent waterflow alarms will not restart the 60 second timer.

2.

Once the 60 second time expires, if any waterflow zones are still in alarm, the panel will initiate an immediate alarm. If all waterflow zones have restored at the end of the 60 seconds, an alarm will not be initiated.

Zone type 04 – Supervisory zone

When the contact on a Supervisory device is initiated:

1.

The control panel will immediately indicate the Supervisory “offnormal” condition.

2.

The zone supervisory LED (yellow) will flash, the common

‘supervisory’ LED will come on steady and the common trouble buzzer will sound steadily. Pressing the ‘trouble silence’ switch will silence the buzzer and the zone supervisory LED will stop flashing and turn on steadily.

3.

Fire supervisory zones are latching and can only be restored when the initiating device is restored and a system reset is performed.

28

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Zone type 05 – Auto-verify for four-wire smoke detectors.

This zone type is intended for the alarm initiating contacts from 4-wire smoke detectors only and provides the ability to auto-verify alarms from those smoke detectors.

CAUTION: Do not mix alarm initiating or supervisory initiating devices on the same zone with 4-wire smoke detector alarm initiating contacts.

When a 4-wire smoke detector on an auto-verify zone goes into alarm:

1.

The panel open circuits the ‘SCOM’ line, removing power from all

4-wire smoke detectors in the system.

2.

At the end of the 25 second reset period, power is restored to the zone and to all 4-wire smoke detectors. For 95 seconds following the reset period, if any smoke detector on that zone is still in alarm, the panel will activate the NACs as programmed, the visual indicators and the common alarm relay.

3.

If during the total verification period (120 seconds), any other zone on the panel goes into alarm, the verification sequence is cancelled and the panel immediately goes into alarm. If two autoverify zones activate simultaneously, both verification sequences are cancelled and the panel goes into alarm without any delay.

NAC Temporal/Steady Programming - Section 1 (‘NAC1’ LED on steady)

You can individually program both NAC1 and NAC2 to sound in either a temporal or steady pattern. By default, both NAC outputs are programmed as steady.

Temporal

The NAC1 will sound the Temporal/ANSI Fire Pattern: 0.5 seconds ON,

0.5 seconds OFF, 0.5 seconds ON, 0.5 seconds OFF, 0.5 seconds ON,

1.5 seconds OFF, repeat.

The NAC2 will sound the Temporal/ANSI Fire Pattern: 0.5 seconds ON,

0.5 seconds OFF, 0.5 seconds ON, 0.5 seconds OFF, 0.5 seconds ON,

1.5 seconds OFF, repeat.

Steady

The NAC1 will sound continuously.

The NAC2 will sound continuously.

NAC Auto-silence and Strobe Programming - Section 2 (‘NAC2’ LED on steady)

Automatic Signal Silence

If Automatic Signal Silence is enabled, 30 minutes after the last fire alarm on the system, the panel restores the NACs to normal (alarms are silenced).

If another alarm occurs after the NACs are silenced, the panel will restart the timer for another 30 minute period.

If Automatic Signal Silence is disabled, the panel will not silence the

NACs automatically.

29

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

NAC2 Strobe

If this option is enabled, on alarm, NAC2 turns on steady and does not turn off on automatic signal silence, or when the Silence Alarm button is pressed. When NAC2 is set to this mode, it can only be turned off when all zone fire alarms are restored, and the system is reset. Only NAC2 can be set to this mode.

If this option is disabled, the panel will restore NAC2 to normal following an automatic signal silence (see Automatic Signal Silence, above), or following a press of the ‘Silence Alarm’ button.

Silence Inhibit and Walk Test Programming - Section 3 (‘Battery’ LED on steady)

Signal Silence Inhibit Timer

If the Signal Silence Inhibit Timer is enabled, when the first alarm is activated, the panel will begin a 60 second countdown. During this 60 seconds, users will not be able to turn off the NACs by pressing the

Silence Alarm button. The timer is started on the first alarm only and is not restarted on subsequent alarms.

If the Signal Silence Inhibit Timer is disabled, users will be able to turn off the NACs at any time, by pressing the Silence Alarm button.

If NAC2 is set as a strobe, users will never be able to turn off NAC2 using the Silence Alarm button. See “Silence Inhibit and Walk Test

Programming - Section 3 (‘Battery’ LED on steady)” on page 30.

Audible Walk Test

You can set the One Man Walk Test to be either audible or silent. If the

One Man Walk Test is set for audible, then the following will occur:

• On a fire or Supervisory alarm/restoral the bells will pulse ONCE

• On a zone or system trouble/restoral, except ground fault, the bells will pulse TWICE

• On any ground fault/restoral the bells will pulse THREE times.

If the One Man Walk Test is set for silent, the bells will not sound during the walk test.

Waterflow Programming - Section 4 (‘Ground Fault’ LED on steady)

Delay Waterflow Alarms

If the Waterflow Alarm Delay option is turned on, the panel will start a 60 second timer when the first Waterflow zone goes into alarm. The panel will not restart the timer on subsequent Waterflow zone alarms. When the timer expires, if any waterflow zone is still in alarm, the panel will immediately go into alarm. If any other type of fire zone goes into alarm during the waterflow delay countdown, the panel will immediately go into alarm in response to that zone.

If the Waterflow Alarm Delay option is turned off, alarms on Waterflow zones will cause an immediate alarm in the panel.

30

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Silence Waterflow Alarms

If the Silence Waterflow Alarms option is turned on, Waterflow zones can be silenced whether the zones are physically restored or not.

If the Silence Waterflow Alarms option is turned off, Waterflow zones cannot be silenced until they are physically restored. This applies to both automatic signal silence, and the Silence Alarm button. If there is a trouble on a Waterflow zone following the alarm and alarm restore, the zone can be silenced.

Auto-Verify Programming - Section 5 (‘Signals Silence’ LED on steady)

If the Auto Verify Fault is Alarm option is turned on, the following will occur:

• if a zone initiates an auto-verify sequence and returns from power down in the trouble state, the system will treat this as an

ALARM condition and assume that the circuit has been forced open by fire. Please see “Zone Programming (Section 0)” on page 26 for more information on auto-verify zones.

If the Auto Verify Fault is Trouble option is turned on, the following will occur:

• if a zone initiates an auto-verify sequence and returns from power down in the trouble state, the system will treat this as an

TROUBLE condition. Please see “Zone Programming (Section

0)” on page 26 for more information on auto-verify zones.

7.0 Startup of the MR-2605

7.1 Prior to power up

• Verify that all field wiring is free of shorts, opens and grounds and that end-of-line devices are connected and are the proper value.

• Verify that all modules and internal cables are properly seated in their location.

• Verify that all metal components are bonded to the incoming ground. Should measure zero ohms between any metal part and the incoming ground wire.

• Verify that the polarity between the panel and connected devices is correct.

7.2 Power up sequence

• Connect the battery FIRST. The panel will not power up on the battery alone.

• Apply AC power. The panel will power up as follows:

• The panel goes into the Reset mode immediately. This lasts for 10 seconds and the trouble buzzer will beep during the reset period.

• After the reset period ends, the buzzer goes silent, the green AC indicator should be ON and all other LEDs should be OFF.

• If any LED other than the AC LED is ON then there is a fault in the system. Troubleshoot and repair the fault before proceeding.

• If the battery is not fully charged, the battery fault LED will come on after about 2 minutes.

Verify that the battery is connected properly and if it is, it may take up to 24 hours to recharge the batteries. Once the battery is charged, the battery fault LED will go OFF.

7.3 Default Operation

• On first power up, all programmable features will be in the default mode.

• Do a ‘Lamp Test’ to verify that all the indicators function.

• It is suggested that an initial verification of operation be done before the panel is programmed. Verify that each zone will go into alarm and that each NAC operates the

Notification Appliances and that the zone alarm indicator(s) function. Each zone is defaulted as an instant ‘fire alarm’ and each NAC is defaulted for ‘steady’ output on alarm.

An Alarm, Silence, Reset cycle will also verify that the push-button function properly.

• Verify that each zone indicates a trouble on a zone open and that a ground fault on the extended conductors is properly indicated.

7.4 Programming the Panel

• Program the panel for the operational features desired. (section 6)

• Record your configuration choices for future reference. (section 8)

• Verify panel operations and feature selections by initiating alarms and troubles as described above.

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not

45

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most products contain software. With respect to those products, does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time.

Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the

Local Authority Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

46

MR-2605 Installation and Operator’s Manual

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

MR-2944 Installation and Operator’s Manual

1.0 Technical Information

1.1 General

The MR-2944 Annunciator Driver is capable of controlling up to 576 LEDs, as 192 zones of 3

LEDs each (Alarm, Supervisory, Trouble), for use with columnar or graphic annunciators. Two optional LCD displays are available, an 80 character (4 x 20) display the same size as the

MR-2900 LCD display and a larger display twice that size. Both can be used to display text messages.

The MR-2944 uses the MR-2910 Network Communications Board for network interface. The

MR-2944 can use all variants of the MR-2910 board. The MR-2944 may also use the MR-D1010R

Fiber Optic Modem for connecting a fiber network between panels.

The MR-2944 uses the AN4 program for connection to MR-2900 and MR-2100/2200 networks and the AN4A program for connection to MR-2400 panels. All programs are nearly identical in operation, but the AN4A program may not be used to create a fiber optic network.

The LEDs are interfaced to the Annunciator Driver using the MR-2902 Annunciator Strip, the

MR-2622 Annunciator Strip or the MR-2915 LED Driver.

Communication to the MR-2900 Control Unit is over a proprietary DCLR (Style 7) network. There are two communications ports (COM1 and COM2). These ports are identical to the network ports on the MR-2900 Control Unit. Wiring for standard network communications is not polarity sensitive. RS-232 network communications is polarity sensitive.

1.2 MR-2915 LED Driver

The MR-2915 LED Driver drives up to 24 LEDs. There is a 50 pin connector for connection to a wire-wrap socket. The LEDs would be connected to the wire-wrap legs of the socket.

1.3 MR-2902 Annunciator Strip

The Annunciator Strip contains 24 sets of zone indicating LEDs. Individual LEDs are provided to display alarm, supervisory and trouble conditions by zone. The LED functions, from the left, are:

Alarm (red), Supervisory (yellow or amber) and Trouble (yellow).

1.4 MR-2622 Annunciator Strip

The Annunciator Strip contains 8 sets of zone indicating LEDs. Individual LEDs are provided to display alarm, supervisory and trouble conditions by zone. The LED functions, from the left, are:

Alarm (red), Supervisory (yellow or amber) and Trouble (yellow).

2.0 Installation

2.1 Mounting

These mounting instructions apply only to annunciators that come complete with cabinet.

1.

Choose a suitable location for mounting.

2.

Mark placement of mounting screws using template. Make sure that the template is level.

3.

Drill holes, install plugs (if necessary) and top two screws.

4.

Hang the cabinet on screws and pull down to ensure a snug fit. The cabinet should be level.

5.

Install bottom screw(s) and tighten all screws.

6.

Connect network and power wiring. Operator key wiring and LED wiring, if any, is done at the factory. Power can be taken from the MR-2900 or MR-2400 Fire Alarm Control Unit or an external 24VDC source. An external source must be UL/ULC listed for use with fire alarm systems.

Note: For use with MR-D1010R Fiber Optic Modem, power must be supplied by a regulated, power-limited 24 VDC power supply that is UL-listed for Fire Protective Signalling Service.

2.2 Wiring

Note: Operator key and LED wiring is required only for units that do not come complete in a cabinet.

Power

The Annunciator panel requires 24 VDC for operation from a power limited source. This shall be provided from either the AUX 1 or AUX 2 auxiliary power connections on the Fire Alarm Control

Panel. The 24 VDC is connected to the +24 terminal (positive) and the GND terminal (negative).

See Figure 1 for terminal locations. Note: Annunciator must be powered from panel or from a regulated, power-limited power supply listed for Fire Protective Signalling Service (or any other power supply for which compatibility has been verified by UL).

Network to MR-2900

Network wiring for communications to the MR-2900 is connected to the terminal pairs marked

C1+/C1- and C2+/C2- (see Figure 1 ). The wiring is not polarity sensitive. COM1 (C1+/C1-) is connected to COM2 the next panel in the network loop. Ensure that the Annunciator is

3

MR-2944 Installation and Operator’s Manual programmed to communicate with the next panel or that COM1 is disabled as required in the downloaded database. COM2 (C2+/C2-) is connected to the previous panel in the network loop.

Figure 1: Wiring Diagram

Notes:

1.

If the annunciator is programmed for two port operation, both communications ports must be connected even if there is only one other unit in the system.

2.

If the annunciator is programmed for single port operation, only COM2 (C2+/C2-) is connected.

3.

COM1 and COM2 are power-limited and supervised.

4.

For information on connecting a fiber optic network, please refer to the MR-D1010R Fiber

Optic Module’s Installation Manual (579-565).

Network to MR-2400

Network wiring for communications to the MR-

2400 is connected to the terminal pairs marked

C2+/C2- (see Figure 2 ). The wiring is polarity sensitive. COM1 (C1+/C1-) is not used.

Notes:

1.

Ensure the MR-2944 is running the

AN4A operating program.

2.

COM2 is power-limited and supervised.

Operator Keys

Figure 2: MR-2400 Wiring

All operator keys are wired between an X and a Y terminal. A key switch may be placed in series with the Y2 terminal to make certain operator

4

MR-2944 Installation and Operator’s Manual keys limited access (see Figure 3 ). The figure is typical only; any, all or none of the operator keys can have the key switch used.

LEDs

The MR-2902 Annunciator Strip, MR-2622 Annunciator Strip and the

MR-2915 LED Driver are connected to the Annunciator by ribbon cables (see Figure 1 ). The eight connectors on the Annunciator are labelled P1 to P8. P1 is for zones 1 to 24, P2 for zones 25 to 48, etc.

Each MR-2622 and MR-2915 controls 8 zones. Up to 3 MR-2622s or

MR-2915s can be chained together to provide up to 24 zones per chain. Each MR-2622 will require a jumper for addressing (see below). No jumpers are set on the MR-2915 for addressing purposes.

Note: Do not use P11 for LEDs. This will cause damage to both the

MR-2944 and the LED driver.

The MR-2915 LED Driver has a 50 pin connector for connection to the LEDs. The LEDs are wired to a 50 pin socket which the MR-2915 plugs into. The pin-outs are shown in Figure 4 . Note: All LEDs share a common positive.

MR-2622 Jumper Settings

The jumpers for setting the octet are located just below the ribbon cable connector (see Figure 5 ). There are three pairs of holes.

Figure 3: Operator

Key Wiring (Typical)

Soldering a wire jumper across the required pair will set the MR-2622 to be the first, second or third octet. There is a trace on the board jumpering the pair for the first octet. This will need to be cut if the board is for the second or third octet.

3.0 Operation

3.1 LEDs

There are 192 LED zones available on the Annunciator, each zone consisting of Alarm (red),

Supervisory (amber) and Trouble (yellow) LEDs. The LEDs will flash if a new condition is received.

If the buzzer is sounding, press Acknowledge to silence the buzzer. Press Acknowledge (again) to latch the LEDs. Once the condition is restored, the LED can be turned off by pressing Reset . If global commands are enabled, these operator keys will be broadcast to the network, causing all units to respond to the operator keys. An asterisk will appear at the end of the LCD display line showing the current time if any of the LEDs can be reset. If the Alarm List is being displayed, the current time will not be displayed.

If the MR-2944 has a memory or configuration error, the buzzer will sound every 2 seconds. This also occurs while loading a database.

If LEDs are programmed, the table below shows the meaning for each LED when flashing. The

Power On LED flashes when the annunciator first starts operating and stays steady after the

Acknowledge key is pressed.

LED Meaning LED Meaning

Zone 1 alarm Acknowledge available Zone 3 alarm 2nd Stage Inhibit available

Zone 1 supervisory Reset available (green) Zone 3 supervisory Manual Restart available

Zone 1 trouble

Zone 2 alarm

Reset available (yellow) Zone 3 trouble

Signal Silence active Zone 4 alarm future use future use

Zone 2 supervisory Signal Silence available Zone 4 supervisory future use

Zone 2 trouble 2nd Stage Inhibit active Zone 4 trouble Power On

If a common LED is programmed, it will show the sum of all the Zone LEDs that are on. The common LED will also indicate troubles that are local to the Annunciator only. The Hot LEDs have no effect on the common LED.

Lamp Test flashes the LEDs in sequence. Pressing Lamp Test repeatedly will cycle through: alarm

LEDs, supervisory LEDs, trouble LEDs, and Lamp Test off. The test will automatically end if any new condition is received, or after 5 minutes. The lamp test cannot be performed if AC power is off.

3.2 Buzzer

The buzzer gives audible indication of any conditions in the panel. It may sound in any of four modes. Pressing Acknowledge will silence the buzzer. ( Acknowledge will need to be pressed again to latch flashing LEDs.)

The four buzzer modes are:

Steady: This indicates any new fire alarm conditions. This mode can be disabled in the database.

Fast: This indicates any critical failures that must be attended to. These failures can include, but are not limited to memory overflow, network reboot required, database mismatch, etc. The pattern in 50ms on/off.

Medium: This indicates any new supervisory conditions. The pattern is 200ms on/off.

6

MR-2944 Installation and Operator’s Manual

Slow: This indicates any new trouble conditions. The pattern in 500ms on/off. Through programming, a new trouble condition can be made to not sound the buzzer again for a time after it has been silenced. This time can be set from 15 to 255 seconds. By default, the buzzer will sound for all new troubles.

3.3 Operator Keys

There are 16 operator key inputs. The operator keys can be programmed in the database to be either local or global. If the operator keys are local, they affect the MR-2944 Annunciator only. If the operator keys are global, they will be broadcast over the network, causing all units on the network to respond to the operator key. The operator keys are laid out in a 4 by 4 matrix as follows:

Notes:

1.

These operator keys are both Local and Global.

2.

These operator keys are Global only.

3.

All other operator keys are Local only.

4.

Through the downloaded database, global keys can be programmed to affect only certain panels.

If global commands are enabled, all operator keys that have global ability will be broadcast to the network. All units on the network will respond as if the operator key was pressed at the unit itself, except it will not beep. The annunciator will always send the global commands, even when they are not valid at the Annunciator. The LCD back light will turn on if a operator key is pressed. The back light will automatically turn off in 5 minutes if there is no activity.

3.4 Alarm List

The Alarm List contains all the current Alarms, Supervisory Conditions and Troubles. The Alarm

List will hold entries as requested by other panels in the network. The first/last entry of highest priority will be shown, instead of the time display, if there are any entries in the Alarm List. Alarms are the highest priority, Supervisory Conditions are the 2nd priority and Troubles the 3rd priority,

Monitor Conditions are 4th priority and Non-reporting signals are the lowest priority. The Alarm List will turn on the LCD back light when a new entry is received. The back light will automatically turn off in 5 minutes if there is no activity.

To view additional entries in the Alarm List when an entry is showing, press the Scroll key. This will display the next/previous entry of the highest priority showing the device message, if any, otherwise the event screen is shown. Press Scroll again to view the next/previous entry. Use the

Details key to rotate between screens of the event.

There are two display modes of operation:

• First: Displays the first entry of highest priority and then each next entry as requested.

• Last: Displays the last entry of highest priority and then each previous entry as requested.

7

MR-2944 Installation and Operator’s Manual

There are two reset modes of operation:

• Automatic: Entries are removed from the Alarm List as soon as the condition restores.

• Manual: Entries that can be removed from the list have the condition code shown with a "-

" instead of a "+". Press Reset to remove these entries from the Alarm List.

The event screen of an entry shows one of two forms:

1) Line 1: time, sequence number, and Condition

4.0 Programming

4.1 General

The Annunciator Unit's service terminal is accessed through the 9-pin RS-232 serial port located on the bottom of the MR-2944 Driver Board. The programming cable uses pins 2, 3 and 5 straight through from DB9 male to DB9 female plugs. The serial port works at 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity.

When programming the Annunciator for the first time, the only item that MUST BE

PROGRAMMED from the service terminal is the Annunciator's network ID (default value is 101).

The network ID is shown on the top line of every screen to identify the panel being serviced. To change the panel's ID, first go to screen 16 by entering the command 16<Tab>. Set Privilege Level

2 by entering (code)<Ctrl-V> where code is the Level 2 passcode (default 2222). To set the ID enter the command id N, where id is the network ID of the Annunciator, a number between 1 and

254.

All other required programming is taken from the database generated by the Modul-R Human

Interface program (MHI). Downloading the database into the MR-2944 annunciator is automatically handled by MHI. See the Modul-R Human Interface Database Editor for details on downloading databases.

Non-required programming controlling the operation of the Alarm List and the communications parameters of the primary network port (if used) are set using the service terminal.

There are three operating programs for the MR-2944. The AN4 program is used for communications to an MR-2900 network. The AN4A program is used for communications to an

MR-2400. The AN4N program is used for communications to an MR-2900 when there is no database requirement for the annunciator – essentially, this operating program forces the MR-

2944 to behave like it’s predecessor, the MR-2924 (which could not accept a database). The program loaded will be shown on Screen 2 of the service terminal. If the incorrect program is loaded, MHI can be used to send the correct one. See the Modul-R Human Interface Database

Editor for details on sending operating programs.

4.2 Service Terminal Screens

All screens have a common status line showing the current time, a diagnostic number, the annunciator's ID number and the screen number and name. Screens will also list keyboard commands related to the screen's information. Some commands require a privilege level set before they can be used.

Standby Power

The MR-2100/MR-2200 Fire Panel provides standby battery support for lead-acid rechargeable batteries. The required capacity of the standby batteries must be calculated using the charts and tables within the MR-2100/MR-2200 Installation Manual for the period as required by national or local codes and standards. Even though the calculation table within the MR-2100/MR-2200

Installation Manual includes a safety margin, lead-acid batteries commonly used for standby can have variable capacity as a result of age and ambient conditions. Periodic inspection for damage and the batteries’ ability to support the attached equipment is highly recommended.

Figure 4: Dialer Settings Button

4.2 Dialer Settings

The Dialer Settings dialog allows for the programming of various communications options.

The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Telephone Numbers can be up to 32 digits. Special digits may be used to perform the following functions:

• HEX (B)-simulates the [*] key

• HEX (C)-simulates the [#] key

• HEX (D)-forces the panel to search for dial tone

• HEX (E)-forces the panel to pause for 2 seconds

• HEX (F)-end of telephone number marker

Note: A Hex D is required before the number, example: D9054704070

The 1st and 2nd Account Codes identify the system to the central station when a communication is sent. The code can be programmed for up to four digits. The first and third telephone number transmit the first account code. The second telephone number transmits the second account code.

The 1st and 2nd Format setting affects the type of communication that the dialer sends to the central station.

There are seven formats available including 4 BPS formats, Contact ID, SIA and a pager format.

The Dialer Settings window has the following push buttons along the right side:

• Exit: Close the Dialer

Settings window and return to the IDs window.

• Configuration 1: Display the Dialer Configuration 1 screen.

• Configuration 2: Display the Dialer Configuration 2 screen.

• Zone Data: Display the Zone Data screen.

• Maintenance/Common: Display the Dialer Maintenance and Common Reporting Codes screen.

Dialer Configuration 1

The Dialer Configuration 1 dialog contains the First Communicator Options, Second

Communicator Options and International Options. The Communications option determines if the dialer will communicate to the central station. When Enabled is selected, the dialer will communicate all events as programmed. When Disabled is selected, the dialer will not communicate any events.

The TLM One/Two Check options determine whether the dialer will test for telephone line faults on line one and line two respectively.

The Third Phone # can be programmed for two different modes of operation. When Alternate

Dialing Enabled is selected, the dialer switches between the first and third numbers after each dialing attempt, until the maximum number of dialing attempts have been made to each number.

When Third Number Backup is enabled, the dialer will use the third number only if all attempts to communicate to the first number fail. If all attempts to communicate to the third number also fail, a failure to communicate trouble will be generated. When Disabled is selected, the third telephone number is not used.

The Dialing option has three different options for pulse or

DTMF dialing. If All attempts

Pulse is selected, the dialer will always use pulse (rotary) dialing. If All attempts DTMF

Dialing is selected, the dialer will always use DTMF dialing.

If 4 attempts DTMF then Pulse is selected, the dialer will use

DTMF dialing for the first four attempts. If unsuccessful, the dialer will switch to pulse dialing for the remaining attempts.

The SIA Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer

Figure 6: Dialer Configuration 1 will send automatic reporting codes, or use the reporting codes that are programmed in the Zone Data and Maintenance/

Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic SIA Reporting

Codes.

The SIA Max Events option sets the maximum number of events the dialer will send for one SIA transmission. When 20 per Round is selected, SIA sends a maximum of 20 events per round.

When 8 per Round is selected, SIA sends maximum of 8 events per round.

The Contact ID Rep. Codes option determines whether the dialer will send automatic reporting codes, or use the values that are programmed in the Zone Data and Maintenance/Common reporting codes sections. See Appendix D for a list of the automatic Contact ID Reporting Codes.

Pager Format.

Events will be communicated to a pager when using this format. When programming a pager telephone number, extra digits must be used in order for the feature to function properly. Program two hexadecimal digits 'E' at the end of the number (4 second pause).

The panel will attempt to call the pager one time. After dialing the digits in the telephone number

7

MR-2100/2200 Installation Manual the panel will send the account number and reporting code followed by the [#] key (Hex [C]). There is no ringback when using Pager format. The panel has no way of confirming if the paging attempt was successful. Do not use hexadecimal C in a reporting code when using pager format. In most cases the digit C will be interpreted as a [*], which will terminate the page before it has finished.

Example: D19787319876EE

The Test Transmission Line option determines how the dialer chooses a telephone line to send the automatic test transmission. If Alternate is selected, the dialer will alternate between using lines 1 and 2 for transmissions, regardless of telephone line troubles. If Available is selected, the dialer will use Line 1 for test transmissions. If a trouble exists on Line 1, the dialer will switch to Line 2.

When the Force Dialing option is set to enabled, if the first attempt by the panel to call the monitoring station fails, on every subsequent attempt the panel will dial regardless of the presence of dial tone. When Disabled is selected, the panel will not dial the programmed telephone number if dial tone is not present.

When the Busy Tone Detection option is enabled, if busy tone is detected, the dialer will disengage the phone line and try to place the call again following the delay between dialing attempts. When

Disabled is selected, the dialer will use the standard dialing procedure for every attempt. The

Pulse Make/Break Ratio option is for panels in international applications. When 40/60 is selected, the pulse dialing make/break ratio is the 40/60, and when 33/67 is selected it is 33/67.

The Handshake option determines the handshake used for BPS transmissions. When 1600 Hz is selected, the dialer responds to a 1600 Hz handshake. When Standard is selected, the dialer responds to the handshake designated by the format selected (1400 or 2300 Hz).

The ID Tone can be set to 1300Hz or 2100 Hz. The panel will emit a tone at the selected frequency for 500 ms every 2 seconds when it places a call to indicate that it is a digital equipment call, not voice. When Disabled is selected, this feature will not be used.

D i a l e r Configuration 2

The Dialer Configuration 2 screen contains the Swinger Shutdown Variables, Other Options and

Test Transmission options. The Swinger Shutdown options determine the maximum number of zone and trouble events that the dialer will transmit in one day. The alarm or trouble will still be displayed on the panel and logged in the archive, but the dialer will not transmit the event. There are individual counters for Zone Alarm and Restore, Zone Supervisory and Restore, Zone Trouble and Restore and Maintenance Trouble and Restore. This feature will be reset at midnight. To disable the feature, program 000.

The Test Transmission Time of Day determines when the automatic test transmission will occur.

The entry is four digits, military 24 hour format (HH:MM). To disable the feature, program the time as [9999]. The Test Transmission Cycle determines the number of days between test transmissions.

8

MR-2100/2200 Installation Manual

The TLM Trouble Delay controls the number of telephone line monitoring checks required before a telephone line trouble is generated. The dialer checks the telephone connection at 10-second intervals. The Maximum

Dialing Attempts to Each

Phone Number is the number of attempts that the dialer will make to each telephone number before generating a fail to communicate trouble. Post

Dial Wait for Handshake is the amount of time the

Figure 7: Dialer Configuration 2 dialer will wait for a valid initial handshake from the receiver after dialing the programmed telephone number.

The Call Directions dialog contains the options that determine which telephone numbers will be used to communicate events. There are five different types of events that can each be sent to telephone number one or telephone number two. The event types are

Fire Zone Alarm/Restore,

Supervisory Zone Alarm/

Restore, Zone Trouble/Restore,

Maintenance Trouble/Restore and Test Transmissions.

The Zone Data dialog (Figure 9) contains zone definitions and

Figure 8: Call Directions reporting codes that the dialer will use to communicate events.

The Groups List is a list of all currently defined groups. Each line entry includes the Group ID and its message/description. Click on the desired group in order to program it.

The Definition specifies the identifier of the alarm or trouble being sent to the central station. The zone types that are available are Fire, Sprinkler, Heat, Water and Untyped.

5.0 Appendix A: Table of Reporting Codes

The following tables contain automatic Contact ID and SIA format reporting codes. For more information on reporting formats.

5.1 Contact ID

The first digit (in parentheses) will automatically be sent by the control. The second two digits are programmed to indicate specific information about the signal.

For example, if zone 1 is an fire zone point, you could program the event code as [1A]. The central station would receive the following:

*FIRE* - FIRE ALARM - 1 where the “1” indicates which zone went into alarm.

5.2 SIA Format – Level 2 (Hardcoded)

The SIA communication format used in this product follows the Level 2 specifications of the SIA

Digital Communication Standard – October 1997. This format will send the account code along with its data transmission. The transmission would look similar to the following at the receiver:

N Ri00 FA 01

N = New Event

Ri00 = System Event

FA = Fire Alarm

01 = Zone 1

7.0 Warranty and Warning Information

7.1 Warning

Please Read Carefully

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system end-users of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation.

If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

• Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

• Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

• Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

15

MR-2100/2200 Installation Manual

• Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

• Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority Having

Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

• Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

MR-2614 Annunciator

Installation Instructions

1.0 General Information

The basic MR-2614 Annunciator has 8 zones consisting of a red alarm

LED and a yellow trouble LED. There are four common LEDs for alarm

(red), supervisory (yellow), trouble (yellow) and power (green). There are four switch inputs that are used as follows: 1) Reset, 2) Signal

Silence (this function is not UL listed), 3) Acknowledge, 4) Local Lamp

Test. There can only be one basic annunciator attached to the FACP.

The enhanced Annunciator, MR-2614EH, has all the features of the basic MR-2614 and also includes yellow supervisory LEDs for each of the 8 zones, connections for off-board LEDs and a service terminal port. The off-board LEDs allow for Zones 1 to 72 or a graphic annunciator; zones 1 to 8 are repeated for convenience of graphic annunciation. The MR-2902 Annunciator Strip, MR-2622 Annunciator

Strip and the MR-2915 LED Driver are connected to the Annunciator by ribbon cables. The three connectors on the Annunciator are labelled

P1 to P3. Each connector handles 24 zones with each zone having 3

LEDs, alarm, supervisory and trouble. P1 is for zones 1 to 24, P2 is for zones 25 to 48 and P3 is for zones 49 to 72. The MR-2902

Annunciator Strip handles 24 zones. Each MR-2622 and MR-2915 controls 8 zones. Up to 3 MR-2622s or MR-2915s can be chained together to provide up to 24 zones per chain. Each MR-2622 will require a jumper for addressing. No jumpers are set on the MR-2915 for addressing purposes. The service terminal allows for addressing the annunciators so that multiple annunciators can be connected to the

FACP. Each annunciator will display the same information. There can be up to 8 MR-2614EHs per FACP, or one basic MR-2614 and up to 7

MR-2614EHs per FACP.

For graphic annunciators, the off-board LEDs are interfaced to the MR-

2614 using the MR-2915 LED Driver, which drives up to 8 zones of 3

LEDs each. There is a 50 pin connector for connection to a wirewrap socket. The LEDs would be connected to the wire-wrap legs of the socket.

MR-2622 Jumper Settings

The MR-2622 LED strip provides 8 zones of 3 LEDs (alarm, supervisory, trouble) each. These can be used as the first (1 to

8), second (9 to 16) or third (17 to 24) octet of a set of 24 zones. The first octet also does zones 25 to 32 and zones 49 to 56, the second octet also does zones 33 to 40 and zones 57 to 64, and the third octet also does zones 41 to 48 and zones 65 to 72 depending on which set of 24 they are connected to. The jumpers for setting the octet are located just below the ribbon cable connector (see Figure 8). There are three pairs of holes. Soldering a wire jumper across the required pair will set the

MR-2622 to be the first, second or third octet. There is a trace on the board jumpering the pair for the first octet. This will need to be cut if the board is for the second or third octet.

3.0 Programming

The MR-2614EH annunciator is programmed through the service terminal connection at the bottom of the board, marked P4. This connection is a special 4 pin connector. The MR-2614EH uses serial communication of 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.

Normally, programming is required only when there is more than one

MR-2614EH being used.

There are three program settings for the MR-2614EH, the ID number, the use of supervisory LEDs and the flash mode of LEDs. Under normal circumstances, only the unit ID will need to be programmed.

The other two settings are handled by the factory.

The commands available for programming are:

<Del>

(id)N

1 S

0 S

0 F

1 F

Redraw the programming screen. This screen will show the current settings and the programming commands.

Set the ID of the MR-2614EH. This can be from 1 to 8.

The default value is 1. This value will need to be changed only if there are more than one MR-2614EH being used.

The MR-2614EH uses separate alarm and supervisory

LEDs for each zone.

The MR-2614EH will map supervisory signals to the alarm

LED for each zone.

The MR-2614EH will flash LEDs when a new signal is received.

The MR-2614EH will not flash the LEDs when a new signal is received. This is for future usage.

MR-2300 Series LED Version Installation and Operation Manual

Conventions

Circuits

Refers to an actual electrical interface for Initiating (Detection) and Indicating (Signal) or Relays.

Zone

Is a logical concept for a Fire Alarm Protected Area, and will consist of at least one Circuit.

Often the terms Zone and Circuit are used interchangeably, but in this Manual the term Circuit is used.

Display Points

There is a display point associated with every initiating and indicating circuit of the MR-2300 LED Series fire panel.

For an initiating circuit there are two LEDs for every display point: one single color (amber) and one dual color (red/ amber). For an indicating circuit there is only one LED: one single color (amber), for every display point.

Wiring Styles

Initiating and indicating circuits are Class B (Style B and Y). Changing the initiating circuits to Class A requires an

MR-2300-A adder board which will convert SIX initiating zones from Class B (Style B) circuits to Class A (Style D).

This is done without penalizing the number of circuits, which remains the same as in Class B (Style B). Changing the indicating circuits to Class A requires an MR-2300-NC4 adder board which will convert FOUR indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z) or an MR-2300-NC2 adder board which will convert TWO indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z).

There are no jumpers or cables to set on this module, just wiring from the converter (wires are fixed here) to the

Main Fire Alarm Board.

Initiating circuits must be wired from the MR-2300-A module to the Main Fire Alarm board. For example, Initiating circuit 1 positive (red) and negative (black) wires are connected to the positive and negative terminals (respectively) of Initiating circuit 1 on the Main Fire Alarm Board. From the MR-2300-A converter Initiating circuits are wired out to the devices from the positive and negative terminals marked DET OUT and the circuit return wires are brought back to the converter module to positive and negative terminals marked DET RET.

To convert all 12 initiating circuits of the Fire Alarm Panel, two of these MR-2300-A Input Class A Converter Adder

Modules are required.

Supervised Auxiliary Power (regulated)

Supervised auxiliary power is used to power the remote annunciators and smart relay modules. This filtered circuit is supervised therefore a short will disconnect the power through the relay until the “RESET” key is pressed. This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/500mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

25

Field wiring

Auxiliary Power (unregulated)

This unregulated supply is not supervised. This supply is rated at 24VDC/1.7A max. If there is a short on this circuit, the auxiliary power does not recover automatically when the short is removed. The main power must be disconnected, then reconnected and the panel reset to re-establish the auxiliary power supply.

System Checkout

Before turning the power “ON”

To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the main

AC supply.

1. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.

2. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.

3. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged in properly.

4. Check all jumpers and switches for proper setting.

5. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.

6. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe).

7. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.

Power-up procedure

After completing the System Checkout procedures outlined above,

8. Power up the panel. The "AC-ON" green LED and the “Common Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound. Press the “System Reset” button. Since the batteries are not connected, the trouble buzzer should sound intermittently and the common trouble LED should flash.

9. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity: the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-).

All indicators should be OFF except for normal power "AC ON" green LED and green LED I47.

Note:

Green LED I47 is illuminated when the system is normal. This LED indicates that the trouble relay is in normal standby condition.

10.Configure the Fire Alarm Control Panel as described in the Configuration section.

Possible Cause

Normally when a circuit trouble occurs, its designated trouble indicator will be illuminated, as well as the common trouble indicator and trouble buzzer. To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop or that the Circuit Disconnect

Switch is in the ON or CLOSED position.

Note: Disconnecting a Circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal position).

Remote Fail will be indicated on the main panel display for any failure reported by, or failure to communicate with a remote annunciator or other remote device.

This panel has a common ground fault detector . To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the chassis or other Earth Ground connection.

Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.

Walk Test

Mode

If the Walk Test LED is illuminated steadily, the system is in Walk Test Mode.

Common

Trouble

If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of the above confirming trouble indicators are on, check the following for possible fault:

• Check for any missing interconnection wiring.

• Check for any Module missing that was part of the Configuration.

• Check for improperly secured cabling.

• Eight Common Buttons (top half of display)

• up to 12 Initiating Circuit Alarm LEDs and 12 Initiating Circuit Trouble LED Indicators

• Four Indicating Circuit LEDs (labeled NAC- Notifying Appliance Circuit)

• up to sixteen disconnect buttons (12 for initiating circuit & four for indicating circuits)

LED Indicators may be Amber, Red, or Green, and may illuminate continuously (steady), or at one of two Flash

Rates.

• Fast Flash (Supervisory) - 120 flashes per minute, 50% duty cycle

• Trouble Flash (Trouble)- 20 flashes per minute, 50% duty cycle

Note that each display is supplied with laser printer printable paper labels for sliding into the plastic label template on the panel. For the Main Display, the paper label is # NP-2005 ; this includes English and French versions.

Note:

There are different labels for Two Stage operation.

Common Indicators

Buzzer

The Buzzer is activated by any of the following events:

Fire Alarm: Steady

Supervisory Alarm: Fast Flash

Trouble: Trouble Flash Rate

If the Buzzer is turned on in response to a Non-Latching Trouble or Supervisory, it will be turned off if the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason for it to be on.

AC ON LED

The green AC ON Indicator will steadily illuminate as long as the main AC power is above minimum level. The indicator turns OFF when the level falls below the power-fail threshold and the panel is switched to standby

(battery) power.

Common Alarm LED

The red Common Alarm Indicator steadily illuminates whenever the panel alarms on any initiating circuit. Activation of the manual General Alarm Button will also turn on the Common Alarm Indicator if the panel is set for Two-stage

Operation. Since all alarms are latched until the panel is reset, the Indicator will remain ON until then.

Common Supervisory LED

The amber Common Supervisory Indicator turns ON steady when there is a Supervisory Alarm in the Panel caused by any Latching or Non-Latching Supervisory Circuit. The Indicator is turned OFF when all Non-Latching

Supervisory Circuits are restored and there are no active Latching Supervisory Circuits. Latching Supervisory

Alarms remain active until the Panel is reset.

Common Trouble LED

The amber Common Trouble Indicator turns ON steady when the panel detects any trouble condition. It turns OFF when all Non-Latching Troubles are cleared.

Remote Trouble LED

The amber Remote Trouble Indicator flashes at the Trouble Flash Rate if there is trouble detected at a City Tie or

DACT, or if there is communication trouble detected with a Remote Annunciator or if a Remote Annunciator reports a local trouble. It is turned off if these conditions go away.

29

Indicators, Controls and Operations

Fire Drill LED

The amber Fire Drill Indicator illuminates steadily while Fire Drill is active.

Acknowledge LED

If the Panel is configured as a two-stage system, the Acknowledge Indicator flashes amber at the Fast Flash Rate while the Auto General Alarm Timer is timing out. The Acknowledge Indicator steadily illuminates when the Alarm

Timer is cancelled by the activation of the Acknowledge or Signal Silence buttons. If the Auto General Alarm Timer times out and puts the Panel into General Alarm, the Indicator turns off.

General Alarm LED

In two-stage operation only, the red General Alarm Indicator illuminates steadily when the General Alarm button is pushed, a General Alarm Initiating Circuit is activated, or the Auto General Alarm Timer times out. Once the General

Alarm Indicator has been turned on it will stay active until the panel is reset.

Walk Test LED

The amber Walk Test Indicator illuminates steadily to indicate that the panel is in Walk Test Mode. If the Panel is left in this mode for over an hour with no operator activity, the panel will return to normal and the Walk Test indicator will turn OFF.

CPU Fail LED

The amber CPU Fail LED Indicator flashes at the Trouble Flash Rate to indicate a microprocessor failure on the main board.

Auxiliary Disconnect LED

The amber Auxiliary Disconnect Indicator flashes at the Trouble Rate when the Auxiliary Disconnect button is pressed. It turns OFF when the Auxiliary Disconnect button is pressed a second time. When ON flashing, the

Auxiliary Disconnect Indicator signifies that the Auxiliary Alarm Relay is disconnected. Depending on the programming the auxiliary disconnect switch can also disconnect the common alarm and supervisory relay, see

Configuration section. When the Auxiliary Disconnect LED is flashing, the trouble buzzer will also sound.

Signal Silence LED

The Signal Silence indicator flashes amber, at the trouble rate, when indication Circuits are Silenced either by the

Signal Silence button, or by the Auto Signal Silence Timer. It is turned off when the Signals are re-sounded by a subsequent Alarm.

Battery Trouble LED

The amber Battery Trouble Indicator flashes at the Trouble Rate when the Battery is either low (below 20.4 VDC) or disconnected.

Ground Fault LED

The amber Ground Fault Indicator flashes at the Trouble Rate when the Ground Fault Detector detects a Ground

Fault on any field wiring. It turns off when the Ground Fault is cleared.

System Reset LED

This indicator is activated for a short time when the RESET key is pressed.

Common Controls

System Reset Button

The System Reset button resets the Fire Alarm Control Panel and all Circuits. In particular, the system reset button

• Resets all Latching Trouble Conditions.

• Resets all Initiating Circuits.

• Resets 4-Wire Smoke Supply.

• Turns off all Indicating Circuits.

• Turns off Signal Silence, ACK & GA Indicators.

• Turns off Fire Drill.

• Stops and resets all Timers.

• Processes inputs as new events.

• Does not affect Aux Disconnect.

Signal Silence Button

Activation of the Signal Silence button when the panel is in alarm turns on the Signal Silence indicator and deactivates any Silenceable Indicating Circuits. Non-Silenceable Circuits are unaffected. Signals will re-sound upon any subsequent alarm. Subsequent operation of signal silence resounds all Silenceable signals. This button does not function during any configured Signal Silence Inhibit Timer period. It also does not function if the Indicating

Circuits are active as the result of a Fire Drill.

In a two-stage system, if the Auto General Alarm Timer has timed out, this button also performs the same function as the Acknowledge button.

32

MR-2300 Series LED Version Installation and Operation Manual

Fire Drill Button

The Fire Drill button activates all Non-Disconnected Indicating Circuits, but does not transmit any Alarms via the

City Tie, Common Alarm Relay or Auxiliary Alarm Relay. Fire Drill activates the signals in the evacuation code programmed. For example in the Temporal Code, the signals will be pulsed ON for 0.5 seconds, OFF for 0.5 seconds in rounds of 3 and then pause for 1.5 seconds and repeat.

Fire Drill is cancelled by pressing the button again, or if the Panel goes into a real alarm.

Acknowledge Button (or Buzzer Silence button for single stage system)

If the Panel is not configured for two-stage operation, this button becomes Buzzer Silence . If the Panel is configured for two-stage operation, activation of the Acknowledge button while the Auto General Alarm Timer is timing (there is an alarm in the panel, but it is still in the first stage), the timer is cancelled and the amber

Acknowledge Indicator illuminates steady, thereby acknowledging the alarm.

General Alarm Button (or Info button for single stage system)

If the Panel is not configured for two-stage operation, this button becomes the Info button. If the panel is configured for two-stage operation, activation of the General Alarm button immediately sends the panel into second stage:

General Alarm. It will also re-activate the signals if they have been silenced during General Alarm. The General

Alarm condition remains active until the panel is reset.

Info

This button is pressed for further event information when using a CFG-300 Service Tool with LCD, otherwise it does nothing.

Auxiliary Disconnect Button

Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button activates the Auxiliary Disconnect function. The Auxiliary Alarm Relay is always disconnected with this button. The Common Alarm Relay, the Common Supervisory relay and all correlated alarm relays may be disconnected as selected through configuration. Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button also causes the Common Trouble LED to illuminate steady, the common trouble relay to send a trouble message and the trouble buzzer to flash at the trouble flash rate. Pressing the Auxiliary Disconnect button again de-activates this function and the system will go back to normal.

Lamp Test Button

Activation of the Lamp Test button causes all front panel Indicators to steadily illuminate and turns the buzzer ON steady. If Lamp Test is active for more than 10 seconds, Common Trouble is activated.

Buzzer Silence Button (or Menu for single stage system)

Activation of the Buzzer Silence button while the Buzzer is sounding silences the Buzzer. The Buzzer will resound if there is a subsequent event. Pressing the button when the Buzzer is not sounding has no effect.

Menu Button

This button is used to select the command menu when a CFG-300 Service Tool with LCD is used, otherwise it does nothing.

Circuit (zone) disconnect buttons

Circuit (Zone) Disconnect pushbuttons are provided for all initiating and indicating circuits on the Fire Alarm Control

Panel. These pushbuttons are located beside their respective indicating LED.

Pressing a Circuit Disconnect pushbutton bypasses the associated circuit and turns on its Trouble Indicator, activating Common Trouble. While a Circuit is disconnected, all changes in status (alarms and troubles) on that circuit are ignored. The panel does not activate disconnected indicating circuits. Circuit Disconnect pushbuttons are toggle switches; therefore, pressing an activated switch a second time will un-bypass (reconnect) the circuit.

Disconnecting an active Latching Initiating Circuit (including Alarms, Water flow Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, General

Alarm, and Latching Supervisory) does not affect its status until the panel is reset. Disconnecting an active Non-

Latching Initiating Circuit (including Non-Latching Supervisory and Trouble-Only) causes them to behave as if the alarm situation has disappeared. Disconnecting an active indicating circuit immediately deactivates the circuit.

33

Indicators, Controls and Operations

When an Initiating Circuit Disconnect pushbutton is returned to the normal state (by pressing it again in order to unbypass the circuit), the panel checks the state of the circuit. If the circuit is active, the Status Indicator flashes for 10 seconds at the Fast Rate without processing the input. If the Circuit is not reconnected by then, it will be processed as a new input.

Disconnect pushbuttons are also used during Walk-Test as described in the System Checkout section.

Common Relays

Common Alarm Relay

The Common Alarm Relay activates when the common alarm sequence is activated. On a two-stage system the relay may be configured to operate either on the first stage or both the first and second stage alarm ( see

Configuration section ) . The common alarm relay is disconnected by aux disconnect if programmed (see

Configuration section). Since all alarm conditions are latched until system reset, the relay will remain ON until the alarm is cleared and the system is reset.

Common Supervisory Relay

The Common Supervisory Relay activates when the common supervisory sequence is activated as the result of an alarm on any un-bypassed latching or non-latching supervisory circuit. The relay is turned OFF if all non-latching supervisory circuits are restored and there are no latching supervisory circuits active. The relay can be disconnected by aux disconnect if programmed (see Configuration section). The relay will function the same way as an alarm relay if the supervisory relay is disabled ( see Configuration section ).

Common Trouble Relay

The Common Trouble relay is activated when the common trouble sequence is activated as the result of the trouble condition being detected on the system. It is turned off when all troubles are cleared.

Note:

Some troubles are latching once they are detected they remain active until system reset. In this case the common trouble indicator will also remain active until system reset. The common trouble is not bypassed by the auxiliary disconnect function.

Auxiliary Alarm Relay

The Auxiliary Alarm Relay functions the same way as the Common Alarm Relay in every respect except that it can be disconnected by auxiliary disconnect with or without other correlated relays if it is programmed to do so (see

Configuration section). When configured ( see Configuration section ), the relay can also be disconnected if signal silence is active and reconnected if signal silence is de-activated.

Circuit Types

Initiating (Detection) Circuit Types

Non-Verified Alarm

A Non-Verified alarm is a “normal” type of alarm that can have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached to it. Activation of any of these devices will immediately result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm

Control Panel. An Alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Verified Alarm

Verified Alarms are verified by a reset and timing procedure, and may include smoke detectors, heat detectors or pull stations. Activation of pull stations or heat detectors will result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm Control

Panel within four seconds. Smoke detectors will be verified for a real alarm within 60 seconds, depending upon the startup time of the devices being used. If four seconds is too long a response time for pull stations, then wire them separately on a Non-Verified Alarm Circuit. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the

Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

34

MR-2300 Series LED Version Installation and Operation Manual

Water Flow Alarm (Water flow Sensors)

Water Flow Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms except that any indicating circuits programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are Non-Silenceable. Also, if Water Flow Retard Operation is enabled, these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Water flow

Alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common

Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note:

Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Sprinkler Alarm (for Sprinkler Flow Sensors)

Sprinkler Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms unless Water flow retard operation is enabled. If Water

Flow Retard Operation is enabled, then these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Sprinkler Alarm is confirmed and processed. An Alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note:

Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

General Alarm

The General Alarm provides remote general alarm for remote key switches. In a two-stage system these inputs perform exactly the same function as the Front Panel or Remote Annunciator General Alarm button. In a single stage system, these inputs act the same as Non-Verified Alarms; however, if Correlations are enabled, General

Alarm Initiating Circuits are correlated to ALL indicating circuits.

Non-Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Circuits)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate. The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will clear

(as long as there are no other Supervisory conditions in the system) and the Circuit Status LED will turn off.

Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Devices)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate. The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will NOT clear.

Monitor

This is a supervised general-purpose non-latching input used mainly for correlating to a relay circuit. No other system condition occurs as a result of its activation (short-circuit), although it is supervised for Trouble (opencircuit).

Trouble-Only

The Trouble-Only circuit monitors a Trouble Condition from an external device. Both open and short circuits generate a non-latching Trouble condition.

Indicating (Signal) Circuits Types

Silenceable Signal

The Silenceable Signal circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during Single-Stage Alarm or Two-Stage General Alarm, or the Alert Code during the alert (first) stage of a two-stage alarm.

Non-Silenceable Signal

The Non-Silenceable Signal Circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the

35

Indicators, Controls and Operations condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during Single-Stage Alarm or Two-Stage

General Alarm, or the Alert Code during the alert (first) stage of a two-stage alarm.

Silenceable Strobe

Silenceable strobes will be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed. For synchronous strobes see supported protocol/devices section. (NB: Strobes do not support any code pattern .

)

Non-Silenceable Strobes

Non-Silenceable Strobes will not be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed. For synchronous strobes see supported protocol/devices section. (NB: Strobes do not support any code pattern .

MR-2300 Series LED Version Installation and Operation Manual

Single Stage Operation

In a single stage system all alarm inputs are treated in a similar manner. Alarm inputs include any of the following:

Non-Verified Alarm, Verified Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, Water flow Alarm, and General Alarm Circuits. If any of these alarm inputs occur when the panel is not already in alarm, the following occurs:

• The Buzzer sounds steadily.

• If Fire Drill is active, it is cancelled.

• The Common Alarm Indicator turns on.

• The Common Alarm, Auxiliary Alarm and all correlated relays will activate if Aux Disconnect is not active.

• The Auto Signal Silence Timer, if configured, starts.

• The Signal Silence Inhibit Timer, if configured, starts.

• All connected relays programmed to the input are activated (provided that Aux Disconnect is not active.)

• Non-disconnected strobes associated with the input are activated.

• Non-disconnected signals associated with the input are activated at the evacuation rate.

Subsequent alarms when the panel is already in alarm cause the following:

• The alert buzzer sounds steadily.

• If Signals have been silenced as a result of the Signal Silence button or the Auto Signal Silence Timer, Signals are resounded as they were before Signal Silence, the Signal Silence Indicator is turned off, and the Auto

Signal Silence Timer, if configured, is restarted.

• Any additional non-disconnected strobes associated with the new input are activated continuously.

• Any additional non-disconnected signals associated with the new input are activated at the evacuation rate.

Two-stage Operation

In a Two-Stage System Alarm inputs are either First Stage (Alert) inputs or Second Stage (General Alarm) inputs.

First Stage inputs include inputs from the following types of circuits: Non-Verified Alarm, Verified Alarm, Sprinkler

Alarm, and Water flow Alarm. Second Stage inputs include Alarms on General Alarm Circuits, activation of the

General Alarm button, or expiration of the Auto General Alarm Timer.

If any of these alarm inputs occur when the panel is not already in alarm, the following occurs:

• The Buzzer sounds steadily.

• If Fire Drill is active, it is cancelled.

• The Common Alarm Indicator turns on.

• The Common Alarm, Auxiliary Alarm and all correlated relays will activate if Aux Disconnect is not active.

• The Auto Signal Silence Timer, if configured, starts.

• The Signal Silence Inhibit Timer, if configured, starts.

• All non-disconnected relays programmed to the input are activated provided that Aux Disconnect is not active.

If the alarm is a Second Stage alarm all connected strobe circuits are activated continuously, all non-disconnected signal circuits are activated at the evacuation rate, and the General Alarm indicator is turned ON. If the alarm is a

First Stage alarm, non-disconnected strobe circuits programmed to that circuit are activated continuously, nondisconnected signal circuits programmed to that circuit are activated with the Alert Code ( see Indicating Circuit

Types section ) the Auto General Alarm Timer, if configured, starts, and the Acknowledge Indicator starts flashing.

Subsequent First Stage alarms when the panel is already in alarm cause the following:

• The Buzzer sounds steadily.

• If Signals have been Silenced as a result of the Silence button or the Auto Signal Silence Timer, Signals are resounded as they were before Signal Silence, the Signal Silence Indicator is turned off, and the Auto Signal

Silence timer, if configured, is restarted.

• If the panel is not already in General Alarm, additional non-Disconnected Signals programmed to the new input are activated with the Alert Code (see Indicating Circuit Types, in previous section).

37

Indicators, Controls and Operations

• If the panel is not already in General Alarm and if the Acknowledge Indicator is ON steady, indicating that the

Auto General Alarm Timer has been acknowledged, the timer is restarted and the Acknowledge LED is extinguished.

A Second Stage Alarm (General Alarm) when the panel is already in alarm causes the following:

• The Buzzer is sounded steady.

• All non-disconnected signals are activated at the evacuation rate.

• If the Signal Silence Indicator is ON, it is turned OFF and the Auto Signal Silence Timer, if configured, is restarted.

• The Acknowledge Indicator if ON, is turned off.

Alarm inputs are latching, which means that they remain active until system reset. Note that if the System is configured for Correlations , any Second Stage/General Alarm (caused by the Auto General Alarm Timer, the

General Alarm button on the Front Panel or Remote Annunciator, or by a General Alarm Initiating Circuit) condition activates ALL Indicating Circuits, whether they are Correlated or not.

38

MR-2300 Series LED Version Installation and Operation Manual

Supported Protocols/Devices

Synchronous Strobes

The synchronous strobe models that are supported by the MR2300 panel Secutron models MRL-ST and MRA-HS.

A separate compatibility list is available for different supported models.

Strobes can be configures as normal (e.g. not synchronized or any of the above; see configuration section). Any selection made is system-wide (e.g. whatever is selected applies to all the circuits in the system, configured as strobes).

“Signal silence” action on strobes

The “signal silence” action on strobes depends upon the configuration. The following describes the signal silence action on non-silenceable and silenceable strobes.

Non Silenceable strobe

If the output zone is configured as Non-Silenceable Strobe and if the “signal silence” is active on the panel while the strobes are active, the horn should be silenced. If the signal is active again the panel will activate the horn again.

Silenceable strobe

If the output circuit is configured as Silenceable Strobe, and if the “signal silence” is active on the panel, both the horn and strobe are completely turned off by turning off the output circuit. Re-activating the “signal silence” will turn them on again.

Note:

Please see the strobes manufacturer’s data for details.

System Sensor’s i

3

Devices

The MR-2300 fire control panel supports System Sensor’s i

3

devices. Only the two wire smoke detectors are supported on the i

3

zone, which are 2W-B and 2WT-B. Model 2WT-B features a build in fixed temperature (135F /

57.2C) thermal detector and is capable of sensing a freeze condition i.e. if the temperature is below 41F / 5 C.

The zones should be programmed to i

3

devices to be considered as i

3

zone (see configuration section). If the zone is not programmed as i

3

zone and i

3

devices are connected to the zone, it is simply treated as a regular zone. The panel is capable of detecting multiple troubles; if different devices have different troubles on the same zone, all troubles will be reported. The following troubles are reported for the i

3

devices.

i 3 zone Troubles

The following troubles can be reported for a zone configured as i

zone:

• Open circuit trouble

• Communication trouble

• Out of sensitivity: defective or dirty device

• Freeze trouble

39

Supported Protocols/Devices

- W a l k t e s t a c t i v e -

A l a r m : 0 0 T r b : 0 0

The activation of any initiating circuit that has been selected for a walk test will cause the Audible Indicating Circuits

(not Strobes) to activate briefly for a number of short bursts corresponding to the selected circuit number. If the first selected circuit is activated, the indication circuits will sound for one burst. If the second selected circuit is activated, the indication circuits will sound for two bursts, and so on. This means that if, for example, circuits 1, 3 and 5 were selected for the walk test, they would sound with one, two and three bursts respectively. The burst interval is half a second on and half a second off. After the sounding pattern has been sent on the indicating circuits, the initiating circuit is reset and tested again. If it is still active (in alarm) the pattern will be re-sent. Trouble on any initiating circuit selected for the walk test activates the indicating circuits continuously for five seconds. Activation of a circuit will also cause the alarm count to increase while the trouble on the initiating circuit will cause the trouble count to increase.

Alarm Verification and Water flow Alarm Retard Operations are disabled on circuits being walk tested. All circuits not selected for the walk test continue to function normally. If a circuit was disconnected before the walk-test mode was entered and is not selected for the walk-test, it remains disconnected while the walk test is active. Walk test operation is disabled if the Fire Alarm Control Panel is in alarm or goes into alarm while the walk test is active.

Notes:

• If a UDACT is used with the system, all walk-test events will be reported to the monitoring agency. The monitoring agency should be instructed to ignore reported events during the walk-test.

• IF THERE IS NO ACTIVITY FOR ONE HOUR, THE SYSTEM WILL RETURN TO NORMAL

OPERATION.

Pressing, “ENTER” after selecting “Exit“ from the menu will return the panel to normal LCD operation.

CFG-300 LCD Service tool operation

If an LCD service tool is connected to the panel, you will only be able to view the latest message–you cannot scroll through them. In order to see all of the messages, you must enter the programming menu and see the event logs.

The logs are arranged so that the most recent message is shown first. Listed below are the different kinds of messages that can be displayed on the LCD service tool.

Zone messages

Point annunciation is indicated on the LCD. There are no separate queues for “TROUBLE”, “ALARM”,

“SUPERVISORY” and “MONITOR”; instead there is only one queue that indicates all the events. The respective

TROUBLE, ALARM, SUPVISORY and MONITOR LEDs will be flashing if at least one of the given types is in the queue.

The LCD service tool will only show the first alarm or trouble. If a trouble happens first and then an alarm, the alarm will be displayed. Any further events will change the total number of events, shown in the right hand corner of the

LCD display. The order of priority is alarm, supervisory, trouble and monitor.

Example 1 (detection circuit):

Event “ 01/09 ” 01 of 09, “ OPEN TRB ” on physical “ Z-01 ” at “ EAST LOBBY ENTRANCE ”. Press the INFO key to show the process type as “ VERIFIED ALARM ” and the event occurred on “ 2003/04/04 ” at “ 18:01 TUESDAY ”.

MR-2300 Series LED Version Installation and Operation Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not

75

Warranty & Warning Information be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

MR-2300 Series LCD Version Installation and Operation Manual

Conventions

Circuits

Refers to an actual electrical interface for Initiating (Detection) and Indicating (Signal) or Relays.

Zone

Is a logical concept for a Fire Alarm Protected Area, and will consist of at least one Circuit.

Often the terms Zone and Circuit are used interchangeably, but in this Manual the term Circuit is used.

Events

There are events associated with every initiating, indicating and common circuit of the fire panel displayed via the

LCD.

Wiring Styles

Initiating and indicating circuits are Class B (Style B and Y). Changing the initiating circuits to Class A requires an

MR-2300-A adder board which will convert SIX initiating zones from Class B (Style B) circuits to Class A (Style D).

This is done without penalizing the number of circuits, which remains the same as in Class B (Style B). Changing the indicating circuits to Class A requires an MR-2300-NC4 adder board which will convert FOUR indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z) or an MR-2300-NC2 adder board which will convert TWO indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z).

There are no jumpers or cables to set on this module, just wiring from the converter (wires are fixed here) to the

Main Fire Alarm Board.

Initiating circuits must be wired from the MR-2300-A module to the Main Fire Alarm board. For example, Initiating circuit 1 positive (red) and negative (black) wires are connected to the positive and negative terminals (respectively) of Initiating circuit 1 on the Main Fire Alarm Board. From the MR-2300-A converter Initiating circuits are wired out to the devices from the positive and negative terminals marked DET OUT and the circuit return wires are brought back to the converter module to positive and negative terminals marked DET RET.

To convert all 12 initiating circuits of the Fire Alarm Panel, two of these MR-2300-A Input Class A Converter Adder

Modules are required.

Note:

This module has built in Active End-of-Line resistors and so the fire alarm system should be configured to enable Active End-of-Line. See Configuration section.

Four-Wire Smoke Power (regulated)

4-wire smoke power is provided for 4-wire smoke detectors. This filtered supply is supervised, therefore a short will disconnect the power through the relay until the “RESET” key is pressed. This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/

300mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

Supervised Auxiliary Power (regulated)

Supervised auxiliary power is used to power the remote annunciators and smart relay modules. This filtered circuit is supervised, therefore a short will disconnect the power through the relay until the “RESET” key is pressed. This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/500mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

Auxiliary Power (unregulated)

This unregulated supply is not supervised. This supply is rated at 24VDC/1.7A max. If there is a short on this circuit, the auxiliary power does not recover automatically when the short is removed. The main power must be disconnected, then reconnected and the panel reset to re-establish the auxiliary power supply.

26

MR-2300 Series LCD Version Installation and Operation Manual

System Checkout

Before turning the power “ON”

To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the main

AC supply.

1. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.

2. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.

3. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged in properly.

4. Check all jumpers and DIP switches for proper setting.

5. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.

6. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe).

Power-up procedure

After completing the System Checkout procedures outlined above,

7. Power up the panel. The "AC-ON" green LED and the “Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound. Press the “System Reset” button. Since the batteries are not connected, the trouble buzzer should sound intermittently and the common trouble LED should flash.

8. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity: the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-).

All indicators should be OFF except for normal power "AC ON" green LED and green LED I47.

Note:

Green LED I47 is illuminated when the system is normal. This LED indicates that the trouble relay is in normal standby condition.

9. Configure the Fire Alarm Control Panel as described in the Configuration section.

Battery Trouble

Common Trouble

Normally when a circuit trouble occurs, the common trouble indicator will illuminate and trouble buzzer will sound. To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop (as displayed on the LCD) or that the circuit has not been disconnected (or bypassed).

Disconnecting a Circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal position).

Remote Fail will be indicated on the main LCD display for any failure reported by, or failure to communicate with a remote annunciator or other remote device.

This panel has a common ground fault detector . To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the chassis or other Earth Ground connection.

Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.

If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of the above troubles exist, check the following for a possible fault:

Check for any missing interconnection wiring.

Check for any Module missing that was part of the Configuration.

Check for improperly secured cabling.

INFO

The Main Display Panel on the Main Fire Alarm Control Board consists of:

• 5 common LED Indicators (under the LCD display)

• 5 Common Buttons (column left of key pad)

LED Indicators may be Amber, Red, or Green, and may illuminate continuously (steady), or at one of two Flash

Rates.

• Fast Flash (Supervisory) - 120 flashes per minute, 50% duty cycle

• Trouble Flash (Trouble) - 20 flashes per minute, 50% duty cycle

28

MR-2300 Series LCD Version Installation and Operation Manual

Common Indicators

Buzzer

The Buzzer is activated by any of the following events:

Fire Alarm: Steady

Supervisory Alarm: Fast Flash

Trouble: Trouble Flash Rate

If the Buzzer is turned ON in response to a Non-Latching Trouble or Supervisory, it will be turned OFF if the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason for it to be ON.

AC ON LED

The green AC ON Indicator will illuminate steadily as long as the main AC power is above minimum level. The indicator turns OFF when the level falls below the power fail threshold and the panel is switched to standby (battery) power.

Alarm LED

The red Alarm Indicator will illuminate whenever the panel detects an alarm condition on any initiating circuit. Since all alarms are latched until the panel is reset, the Indicator will remain ON until then.

Supervisory LED

The amber Supervisory Indicator turns ON steady when there is a Supervisory Alarm in the Panel caused by any

Latching or Non-Latching Supervisory Circuit. The Indicator is turned OFF when all Non-Latching Supervisory

Circuits are restored and there are no active Latching Supervisory Circuits. Latching Supervisory Alarms remain active until the Panel is reset.

Trouble LED

The amber Trouble Indicator flashes at the Trouble Flash Rate when the panel detects any trouble condition. It turns

OFF when all Non-Latching Troubles are cleared.

CPU Fail LED

The amber CPU Fail LED Indicator flashes at the Trouble Flash Rate to indicate a microprocessor failure on the main board.

Common Controls

System Reset Button

The System Reset button resets the Fire Alarm Control Panel and all circuits. In particular, the system reset button does the following:

• Resets all Latching Trouble Conditions

• Resets all Initiating Circuits

• Resets 4-Wire Smoke Supply

• Turns off all Indicating Circuits

• Turns off Signal Silence

• Turns off Fire Drill

• Stops and resets all Timers

• Processes inputs as new events

• Does not affect Aux Disconnect

29

Indicators, Controls and Operations

Signal Silence Button

Activation of the Signal Silence button when the panel is in alarm deactivates any Silenceable Indicating Circuits.

Non-Silenceable Circuits are unaffected. Signals will resound upon any subsequent alarm. Subsequent operation of signal silence resounds all Silenceable signals. This button does not function during any configured Signal Silence

Inhibit Timer period (see Configuration section). It also does not function if the Indicating Circuits are active as the result of a Fire Drill.

Fire Drill Button

The Fire Drill button activates all Non-Disconnected (un-bypassed) Indicating Circuits, but does not transmit any

Alarms via the City Tie, Common Alarm Relay or Auxiliary Alarm Relay. Fire Drill activates the signals in the evacuation code programmed. For example in the Temporal Code, the signals will be pulsed ON for 0.5 seconds,

OFF for 0.5 seconds in rounds of 3 and then pause for 1.5 seconds and repeat.

Fire Drill is cancelled by pressing the button again, or if the Panel goes into a real alarm.

Lamp Test Button

Activation of the Lamp Test button causes all front panel Indicators to steadily illuminate and turns the buzzer ON steady. If Lamp Test is active for more than 10 seconds, Common Trouble is activated. The Lamp Test will also show the panel type and software version on the LCD display if the button is held for at least 3 seconds.

Buzzer Silence Button

Activation of the Buzzer Silence button while the Buzzer is sounding silences the Buzzer. The Buzzer will resound if there is a subsequent event. Pressing the button when the Buzzer is not sounding has no effect.

Common Relays

Common Alarm Relay

The Common Alarm Relay activates when a general alarm sequence is activated. Since all alarm conditions are latched until system reset, the relay will remain ON until the alarm is cleared and the system is reset. The common alarm can be disconnected by aux disconnect (use Command Menu #12, as switch) if programmed to do so (see

MR-2300 Config/Features 5 and 7).

Common Supervisory Relay

The Common Supervisory Relay activates when the common supervisory sequence is activated as the result of an alarm or any un-bypassed latching or non-latching supervisory circuit. The relay is turned OFF if all non-latching supervisory circuits are restored and there are no latching supervisory circuits active. The relay can be disconnected by aux disconnect (use Command Menu as switch) if programmed (see Configuration section). This Common

Supervisory Relay will function the same way as a Common Alarm relay if programmed to (see MR-2300 Config/

Feature 12).

Common Trouble Relay

The Common Trouble relay is activated when the common trouble sequence is activated as the result of the trouble condition being detected on the system. It is turned off when all troubles are cleared.

Note:

Some troubles are latching once they are detected they remain active until system reset. In this case the common trouble indicator will also remain active until system reset. The common trouble is not bypassed by the auxiliary disconnect function.

Auxiliary Alarm Relay

The Auxiliary Alarm Relay functions the same way as the Common Alarm Relay in every respect except that it can be disconnected by auxiliary disconnect (via Command Menu/Item 12 which acts like a switch) with or without correlated relays if it is programmed to do so (see Configuration section). When configured (see Configuration section) , the relay can also be disconnected if signal silence is active and reconnected if signal silence is deactivated.

30

MR-2300 Series LCD Version Installation and Operation Manual

Circuit Types

Initiating (Detection) Circuit Types

Non-Verified Alarm

A Non-Verified alarm is a “normal” type of alarm that can have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached to it. Activation of any of these devices will immediately result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm

Control Panel. An Alarm condition causes the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Verified Alarm

Verified Alarms are verified by a reset and timing procedure, and may include smoke detectors, heat detectors or pull stations. Activation of pull stations or heat detectors will result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm Control

Panel within four seconds. Smoke detectors will be verified for a real alarm within 60 seconds, depending upon the startup time of the devices being used. If four seconds is too long a response time for pull stations, then wire them separately on a Non-Verified Alarm Circuit. An alarm condition causes the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Water Flow Alarm (Water flow Sensors)

Water Flow Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms except that any indicating circuits programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are Non-Silenceable. Also, if Water Flow Retard Operation is enabled, these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Water flow

Alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note:

Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Sprinkler Alarm (for Sprinkler Flow Sensors)

Sprinkler Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms unless Water flow retard operation is enabled. If Water

Flow Retard Operation is enabled, then these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Sprinkler Alarm is confirmed and processed. An Alarm condition causes the

Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note:

Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Non-Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Circuits)

An activation on these circuits will cause the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate. The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will clear (as long as there are no other

Supervisory conditions in the system) and the Circuit Status LED will turn off.

Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Devices)

An activation on these circuits will cause the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate. The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will NOT clear.

Monitor

This is a supervised general-purpose non-latching input used mainly for correlating to a relay circuit. No other system condition occurs as a result of its activation (short-circuit), although it is supervised for Trouble (opencircuit).

Trouble-Only

The Trouble-Only circuit monitors a Trouble Condition from an external device. Both open and short circuits generate a non-latching Trouble condition.

Indicating (Signal) Circuits Types

Silenceable Signal

The Silenceable Signal circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced

31

Indicators, Controls and Operations either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during alarm.

Non-Silenceable Signal

The Non-Silenceable Signal Circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during alarm.

Silenceable Strobe

Silenceable strobes will be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed. For synchronous strobes see supported protocol/devices section. (NB: Strobes do not support any code pattern .

)

Non-Silenceable Strobes

Non-Silenceable Strobes will not be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed. For synchronous strobes see supported protocol/devices section. (NB: Strobes do not support any code pattern .

Fire Alarm Operation

In a basic system set up all alarm inputs are treated in a similar manner. Alarm inputs include any of the following:

Non-Verified Alarm, Verified Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, and Water flow Alarm. If any of these alarm inputs occur when the panel is not already in alarm, the following occurs:

• The Buzzer sounds steadily

• If Fire Drill is active, it is cancelled

• The Common Alarm Indicator turns on

• The Auxiliary Common Alarm Relay activates if Aux Disconnect is not active

• The Auto Signal Silence Timer, if configured, starts

• The Signal Silence Inhibit Timer, if configured, starts

• All connected relays programmed to the input are activated (provided that Aux Disconnect is not active)

• Non-disconnected strobes associated with the input are activated

• Non-disconnected signals associated with the input are activated at the evacuation rate

Subsequent alarms when the panel is already in alarm cause the following:

• The alert buzzer sounds steadily

• If Signals have been silenced as a result of the Signal Silence button or the Auto Signal Silence Timer, Signals are resounded as they were before Signal Silence, the Signal Silence Indicator is turned off, and the Auto

Signal Silence Timer, if configured, is restarted

• Any additional non-disconnected strobes associated with the new input are activated continuously

• Any additional non-disconnected signals associated with the new input are activated at the evacuation rate

Supported Protocols/Devices

Supported Protocols/Devices

Synchronous Strobes

The synchronous strobe models that are supported by the MR-2300 panel include Secutron models MRL-ST and

MRA-HS. A separate compatibility list is available for different supported models.

Strobes can be configures as normal (e.g. not synchronized or any of the above; see configuration section). Any selection made is system-wide (e.g. whatever is selected applies to all the circuits in the system, configured as strobes).

“Signal silence” action on strobes

The “signal silence” action on strobes depends upon the configuration. The following describes the signal silence action on non-silenceable and silenceable strobes.

Non Silenceable strobe

If the output zone is configured as Non-Silenceable Strobe and if the “signal silence” is active on the panel while the strobes are active, the horn should be silenced. If the signal is active again the panel will activate the horn again.

Silenceable strobe

If the output circuit is configured as Silenceable Strobe, and if the “signal silence” is active on the panel, both the horn and strobe are completely turned off by turning off the output circuit. Re-activating the “signal silence” will turn them on again.

Note:

Please see the strobes manufacturer’s data for details.

System Sensor’s i

3

Devices

The MR-2300 fire control panel supports System Sensor’s i

3

devices. Only the two wire smoke detectors are supported on the i

3

zone, which are 2W-B and 2WT-B. Model 2WT-B features a build in fixed temperature (135F /

57.2C) thermal detector and is capable of sensing a freeze condition i.e. if the temperature is below 41F / 5 C.

The zones should be programmed to i

3

devices to be considered as i

3

zone (see configuration section). If the zone is not programmed as i

3

zone and i

3

devices are connected to the zone, it is simply treated as a regular zone. The panel is capable of detecting multiple troubles; if different devices have different troubles on the same zone, all troubles will be reported. The following troubles are reported for the i

3

devices.

i 3 zone Troubles

The following troubles can be reported for a zone configured as i

3

zone:

• Open circuit trouble

• Communication trouble

• Out of sensitivity: defective or dirty device

• Freeze trouble

Note:

Refer to How to Use the Keypad to Program the MR-2300 on page 39 for detailed instructions on making menu selections.

Walk-Test allows an installer to verify the initiating circuit wiring in a system. When walk test is selected, the following screen confirms the operation:

P e r f o r m t h e w a l k t e s t ? Y

Press the “ENTER” key to activate the walk test and the “CANCEL” key to cancel the walk test. The next screen will allow zones to be selected for walk test. Use the “UP” and “DOWN” keys to scroll through the zones and use the

“LEFT” or ‘RIGHT” keys to select a zone. Press the “ENTER” key when you are done with all the selections.

The activation of any initiating circuit that has been selected for a walk test will cause the Audible Indicating Circuits

(not Strobes) to activate briefly for a number of short bursts corresponding to the selected circuit number. If the first selected circuit is activated, the indication circuits will sound for one burst. If the second selected circuit is activated, the indication circuits will sound for two bursts, and so on. This means that if, for example, circuits 1, 3 and 5 were selected for the walk test, the indicating circuits would sound with one, two and three bursts respectively. The burst interval is half a second ON and half a second OFF. After the sounding pattern has been sent to the indicating circuits, the initiating circuit is reset and tested again. If it is still active (in alarm) the pattern will be re-sent. Trouble on any initiating circuit selected for the walk test activates the indicating circuits continuously for five seconds.

Activation of a circuit will also cause the alarm count to increase while the trouble on the initiating circuit will cause the trouble count to increase.

Alarm Verification and Water flow Alarm Retard Operations are disabled on circuits being walk tested. All circuits not selected for the walk test continue to function normally. If a circuit was disconnected before the walk-test mode was entered and is not selected for the walk-test, it remains disconnected while the walk test is active. Walk test operation is disabled if the Fire Alarm Control Panel is in alarm or goes into alarm while the walk test is active.

Notes:

• If a UDACT is used with the system, all walk-test events will be reported to the monitoring agency. The monitoring agency should be instructed to ignore reported events during the walk-test.

• IF THERE IS NO ACTIVITY FOR ONE HOUR, THE SYSTEM WILL RETURN TO NORMAL

OPERATION.

Warranty & Warning Information

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side

72

MR-2300 Series LCD Version Installation and Operation Manual of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

Introduction

Introduction

Secutron’s MR-2320 Series Pre-Action/Deluge and Agent Release Control Panel performs the function of fire suppression in a wide variety of applications. It is capable of being used in an agent release sprinkler system or in a pre-action or deluge sprinkler system. It can be used in single-hazard or dual-hazard applications with or without cross-zoning. The panel includes common alarm, supervisory, and trouble relays, and provides regulated and unregulated auxiliary power along with four-wire smoke power. It supports auxiliary relays and a city tie module. The auxiliary relays are based on a hazard area status. The MR-2320 has six input zones and four output zones, allowing for flexibility in most single- and dual-hazard applications for both deluge and agent releasing applications.

Panel Type

The panel can function as an agent release panel or as a pre-action/deluge panel, depending on which of the available fixed configurations are chosen from the main programming menu.

Deluge sprinkler system

In deluge sprinkler system open-valve sprinkler heads terminate to a water supply that is controlled by a single valve. When the system detects fire, it automatically opens the valve via a releasing circuit, allowing the water to flow through all the sprinkler heads. Deluge sprinkler systems are useful for applications in which simultaneous discharge of water through every sprinkler is required.

Pre-action sprinkler system

In a pre-action sprinkler system close-valve sprinkler heads are connected to pipes that are supervised for air pressure. The pipes terminate directly to a water supply. Pre-action systems are useful for applications in which the prevention of an accidental discharge of water is required.

Agent release system

In an agent release system, an extinguishing agent (such as Argon, dry chemical, CO 2 , Halon, etc.) is automatically released upon fire detection. An abort function is added to prevent the false release of the extinguishing agent.

Overall Features

• Basic unit has six Class B (Style B) initiating circuits, which may be configured as Class A (Style D) using input

Class A converter adder modules. Each initiating circuit is pre-configured as Alarm, Supervisory (Latching or non-latching), water-flow, Manual Release Switch, Abort Switch or Manual Release/Abort combination, depending upon the selected pre-programmed configuration. There are two LEDs per circuit, one for Trouble

(amber), and one dual color (amber/red) LED for Supervisory (amber) and Alarm (red).

• Basic unit has 4 power limited class B (style Y) output circuits. Output circuits 1 & 2 are indicating circuits while output circuits 3 & 4 are releasing circuits (circuit 4 can work as an indicating circuit in some situations; check the Pre-Programming Modes section on page for details). Each indicating circuit process type is pre-configured and can be silenceable. The signal rates depend on the selected pre-programmed configuration.

• A pushbutton associated with each initiating, indicating and releasing circuit can individually bypass the circuit.

• Configurable Signal Silence Inhibit and Auto Signal Silence Timers.

• Subsequent Alarm, Supervisory, and Trouble operation.

• Four wire reset-able smoke power supply: 22.3V DC regulated, 300mA maximum.

• Relay Contacts for Common Alarm, Common Supervisory, Common Trouble, and Auxiliary Alarm Relay

(disconnectable).

• RS-485 Interface for MR-2300 Series Remote Multiplex Annunciators and Smart relay Module.

• Optional Modules for additional Relay Circuits, City Tie and Polarity Reversal Signaling.

• Extensive transient protection.

• Easy configuration of the panel using LCD service tool (CFG-300).

• Releasing circuit protection from false alarm by disconnecting the battery if the voltage falls below 19V.

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

Conventions

Circuits

Refers to an actual electrical interface for initiating (detection), indicating (signal), and releasing.

Zone

Is a logical concept for a Fire Alarm Protected Area, and will consist of at least one Circuit.

Often the terms Zone and Circuit are used interchangeably, but in this Manual the term Circuit is used.

Display Points

There is a display point associated with every initiating and indicating circuit of the MR-2320 LED Series fire panel.

For an initiating circuit there are two LEDs for every display point: one single color (amber) and one dual color (red/ amber). For an indicating circuit there is only one LED: one single color (amber), for every display point.

Wiring Styles

Initiating and indicating circuits are Class B (Style B and Y). Changing the initiating circuits to Class A requires an

MR-2300-A adder board which will convert SIX initiating zones from Class B (Style B) circuits to Class A (Style D).

This is done without penalizing the number of circuits, which remains the same as in Class B (Style B). Changing the indicating circuits to Class A requires an MR-2300-NC2 adder board, which will convert TWO indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z). Releasing circuits (Z) are Class B (Style B) only.

The Alarm Transmit signal to the MR-2300-PR can be programmed to turn OFF when signal silence is active. This allows the City Tie Box to be manually reset. On subsequent alarms the silenceable signals will resound and the

City Tie Box will be retriggered. See configuration of Alarm Xmit-Sil on page for more information.

The Trouble Transmit signal to the MR-2300-PR can be programmed to delay AC power fail for 0, 1 or 3 hours if this is the only system trouble. See Pwr Fail Dly Tmr configuration on page for more information.

Abort and Manual Release Switch Wiring

Wiring for the abort and manual release switches is shown in Figures 10 and 11 . Depending on the selected mode, the Abort and Manual release switches can either be on different circuits or they both can be on the same circuit.

When on separate circuits, DET5 is used for the Abort switch and DET6 is used for the manual release switch.

When on the same circuit, DET 5 Abort/Manual release combination is for hazard area 1, while DET6 Abort/Manual release combination is for hazard area 2. When an Abort/Manual release combination is used, ensure that the

Manual release switch is always before the Abort switch. Also ensure that there is a current limiting resistor (MP-

1500R/W) between the Manual release and Abort switch for differentiating between the two switches.

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

System Checkout

Before turning the power “ON”

To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the main

AC supply.

1. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.

2. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.

3. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged in properly.

4. Check all jumpers and switches for proper setting.

5. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.

6. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe).

7. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.

The best way to check out a panel first is to not connect any field wiring. Power up the panel with an end of line. The panel should be free of trouble. Then connect one circuit at one time. If a trouble occurs, correct the fault then continue the field wiring.

Power-up procedure

After completing the System Checkout procedures outlined above,

8. Power up the panel. The "AC ON" green LED and the “Common Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound. Press the “System Reset” button. Since the batteries are not connected, the trouble buzzer should sound intermittently and the common trouble LED should flash.

9. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity: the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-).

All indicators should be OFF except for normal power "AC ON" green LED and green LED I4 (below the

TROUBLE relay at left bottom of board).

Note: Green LED I4 is illuminated when the system is normal. This LED indicates that the trouble relay is in normal standby condition.

10.Configure the Fire Alarm Control Panel as described in the Configuration section.

Possible Cause

To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop or if the Circuit

Disconnect Button is active. Notes: (1) Bypassing a detection circuit or signal circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal status); (2) Bypassing a releasing circuit will cause a supervisory signal.

Remote Trouble will be indicated on the main panel display for any failure reported by, or failure to communicate with a remote annunciator or other remote device.

This panel has a common ground fault detector . To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the chassis or other Earth Ground connection.

Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.

If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of the above confirming trouble indicators are on, check the following for possible fault:

• Check for any missing interconnection wiring.

• Check for any Module missing that was part of the Configuration.

• Check for improperly secured cabling.

Input Circuits Bypass Switch

These bypass switches are used to bypass the input circuit. Bypass is a toggle switch which will bypass and unbypass in a sequence whenever the switch is pressed. When the input circuit is bypassed a trouble is generated and the system will not respond to any trouble or alarm on the bypassed input circuit. If the bypassed input circuit is active and the Bypass Switch is pressed for un-bypassing, the Alarm LED will flash at the fast rate for 10 seconds.

During these 10 seconds, pressing the Bypass Switch can bypass the active input circuit again. After 10 seconds, the bypassed alarm will be processed.

28

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

Output Circuits Bypass Switch

The output circuit bypass switches bypasses the NAC circuit and the releasing circuit. The switch is a toggle switch and pressing it again, will un-bypasses the output circuit the trouble LED turns off.

Common Controls

System Reset Button

The System Reset button resets the Fire Alarm Control Panel and all Circuits. In particular, the system reset button

• Resets all Latching Trouble Conditions

• Resets all Initiating and Releasing Circuits

• Resets 4-Wire Smoke Supply

• Turns off all Indicating Circuits

• Turns off Signal Silence Indicator

• Stops and resets all Timers

• Processes inputs as new events

• Does not affect Aux Disconnect

Signal Silence Button

Activation of the Signal Silence button when the panel is in alarm turns on the Signal Silence indicator and deactivates any Silenceable Indicating Circuits. Non-Silenceable Circuits are unaffected. Signals will re-sound upon any subsequent alarm. Subsequent operation of signal silence resounds all Silenceable signals. This button does not function during any configured Signal Silence Inhibit Timer period.

Auxiliary Disconnect Button

Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button activates the Auxiliary Disconnect function. The Auxiliary Alarm Relay is always disconnected with this button. The Common Alarm Relay, the Common Supervisory relay and all correlated alarm relays may be disconnected as selected through configuration. Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button also causes the Common Trouble LED to illuminate steady, the common trouble relay to send a trouble message and the trouble buzzer to flash at the trouble flash rate. Pressing the Auxiliary Disconnect button again de-activates this function and the system will go back to normal.

Lamp Test Button

Activation of the Lamp Test button causes all front panel Indicators to steadily illuminate and turns the buzzer ON steady. If Lamp Test is active for more than 10 seconds, Common Trouble is activated.

Buzzer Silence Button

Activation of the Buzzer Silence button while the Buzzer is sounding silences the Buzzer. The Buzzer will resound if there is a subsequent event. Pressing the button when the Buzzer is not sounding has no effect.

Circuit (zone) disconnect buttons

Circuit (Zone) Disconnect pushbuttons are provided for all initiating indicating, and releasing circuits on the Fire

Alarm Control Panel. These pushbuttons are located beside their respective indicating LED.

Pressing a Circuit Disconnect pushbutton bypasses the associated circuit and turns on its Trouble Indicator, activating Common Trouble. Pressing a releasing circuit disconnect pushbutton bypasses the associated releasing circuit and turns on its LED, activating common supervisory. While a Circuit is disconnected, all changes in status

(alarms and troubles) on that circuit are ignored. The panel does not activate disconnected indicating circuits.

Circuit Disconnect pushbuttons are toggle switches; therefore, pressing an activated switch a second time will unbypass (reconnect) the circuit.

Disconnecting an active Latching Initiating Circuit (including Alarms, Water flow Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, General

Alarm, and Latching Supervisory) does not affect its status until the panel is reset. Disconnecting an active Non-

Latching Initiating Circuit (including Non-Latching Supervisory and Trouble-Only) causes them to behave as if the alarm situation has disappeared. Disconnecting an active indicating circuit immediately deactivates the circuit.

29

Indicators, Controls and Operations

When an Initiating Circuit Disconnect pushbutton is returned to the normal state (by pressing it again in order to unbypass the circuit), the panel checks the state of the circuit. If the circuit is active, the Status Indicator flashes for 10 seconds at the Fast Rate without processing the input. If the Circuit is not re-bypassed by then, it will be processed as a new input.

Circuit Types

Initiating (Detection) Circuit Types

Non-Verified Alarm

A Non-Verified alarm is a “normal” type of alarm that can have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached to it. Activation of any of these devices will immediately result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm

Control Panel. An Alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Water Flow Alarm (Water flow Sensors)

Water Flow Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms except that any indicating circuits programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are Non-Silenceable. Also, if Water Flow Retard Operation is enabled, these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Water flow Alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm

LED to illuminate red.

Note: Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Non-Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Circuits)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate.

The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will clear (as long as there are no other Supervisory conditions in the system) and the Circuit Status LED will turn off.

Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Devices)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate.

The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will NOT clear.

Abort Switch

When the hazard area is in alarm (pre-discharge) state and the release timer is running, the activation of the corresponding Abort Switch will pause the releasing timer. The release process is held while the Abort Switch is pressed. Releasing the Abort Switch will resume the releasing timer and the corresponding hazard area goes into

Alarm (pre-discharge) state again. The value of the release timer after Abort Switch is released depends on the type

30

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual of Abort Delay in the configuration. When the release timer expires, the corresponding releasing circuit is activated.

When the panel is in normal condition, activation of the Abort Switch will cause a trouble signal and the corresponding zone amber LED turns on at slow flash rate.

Manual Release Switch

Activation of the Manual Release Switch of a hazard area will activate the corresponding releasing circuit. If the corresponding Manual Release Delay is non-zero, the releasing circuit will be activate after the Manual Release

Delay expires.

Combination of Abort Switch and Manual Release Switch

This type of circuit is the combination of both Abort Switch and Manual Release Switch. This combination always applies to the same hazard area. A short condition on the circuit is a Manual Release Active and a current limit condition is an Abort Switch Active.

Indicating (Signal) Circuits Types

Silenceable Signal

The Silenceable Signal circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or automatically.

Non-Silenceable Signal

The Non-Silenceable Signal Circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the evacuation code pattern that is configured by the user. For more information on evacuation codes, refer to Evacuation Codes on page.

Silenceable Strobe

Silenceable strobes will be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed.

Non-Silenceable Strobes

Non-Silenceable Strobes will not be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed.

Operating the Panel

Operating the Panel

Panel Operation During Various Hazard States

The escalating hazard zone states include Idle, Alert, Alarm and Release. They are defined based on the status of

Hazard Area input zone(s), correlated Abort Switch and Manual Release Switch.

Hazard Idle

• No correlated alarm zone active.

• Release Timer is not started.

• Manual Release Delay Timer is not started.

• Abort Switch is off.

• Manual Release Switch is off.

• Corresponding NAC circuit is off.

• Releasing circuit(s) is off.

Hazard Alert (or equivalently first Alarm in Cross-zoned Application)

• The panel enters the Hazard Alert state when

• a single alarm comes in for a cross-zoned hazard. For non cross-zoned hazard area, a single alarm will put hazard into Hazard Alarm state directly.

• the Abort Switch becomes active during Hazard Alarm state, so that the hazard area state downgrades from

Hazard Alarm to Hazard Alert.

• Release Timer is not started.

• Manual Release Delay Timer is not started.

• Correlated NAC circuit(s) turns on at alert rate.

Hazard Alarm (pre-discharge, or equivalently second Alarm in Cross-zoned Application)

• The panel enters the Hazard Alarm state when

• it detects the confirming alarm for hazard area (single alarm active for the non cross-zoned system, or 2nd alarm active in the cross-zoned system), or

• Manual Release Switch is active.

• Release Timer (RT) is started when the panel enters Hazard Alarm state after by detecting the 2nd alarm in cross-zoned hazard or 1st alarm in non cross-zoned hazard.

• Manual Release Delay Timer is started when the panel enters Hazard Alarm state by detecting the correlated

Manual Release Switch active.

• Releasing circuit(s) will be activated after the Release Timer or Manual Release Timer expires.

• Corresponding NAC(s) turns on at alarm rate.

• During Hazard Alarm State, when the release timer is running and the Abort Switch turns on, the hazard area state will change from Hazard Alarm to Hazard Alert. Release Timer is held and the corresponding NAC sounds the Alert rate. If the Abort Switch is released, the hazard state will go back to Hazard Alarm and the Release

Timer resumes running. The value of release timer depends on Abort Delay Type. The corresponding NAC sounds Alarm rate again.

Hazard Release

• Panel enters Hazard Release when the Release Timer or Manual Release Timer expires. The correlated releasing circuit is activated.

• NAC code for Hazard Release state is steady.

52

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

General Panel Operation

• Activation of Manual Release Switch starts the Manual Release Delay Timer. The expiration of Manual-release

Delay Timer (MDT) activates the releasing circuits consequently. Manual Release Switch overrides the Abort

Switch always and Manual-release Timer (MDT) always overrides Release Timer (RT).

• When the manual release switch is active and the panel is in the Hazard Alarm (pre-discharge) state, Abort

Switch cannot override the Manual Release Switch. Only the System Reset key can interrupt and reset the panel and hazard area.

• System Reset will reset all circuits, including releasing circuits.

• The supervisory circuit can be optionally indicated on NAC-2 circuit. The NAC code of supervisory circuit should be different from those of Hazard Alert or Hazard Alarm. By default, when the NAC code for Hazard Alert is

Temporal, the NAC code for supervisory circuit is 20 BPM or verse visa. This configuration change is automatically done by the panel. If NAC code for alert is chosen other than 20 BPM and Temporal, Supervisory

NAC code will remain unchanged during the configuration.

• In some pre-programmed modes, the Alert Rate and the Alarm Rate are configured the same. So the action of

Abort Switch does not change the NAC rate.

• AB/MR is the combination of Manual Release Switch and Abort Switch in the Agent Release panel. Short condition means Manual Release active. Current Limit means Abort Switch active.

• To avoid the conflict of different NAC code on the same circuit, the priority of signals are defined as, Water-flow alarm has the highest priority, then hazard cadence. The supervisory signal has the lowest priority.

• Soak Timer sets the time period how long the releasing circuits should be active. Upon the expiration of soak timer, the releasing circuits will be shut off. Setting of 0 second means the releasing circuits will be turned on without timer running. They will be shut off upon system reset.

• Abort function is not applicable in pre-action and deluge application.

• Expiration of Release Timer-1 change Hazard Area 1 state to Release. Both RAC-1 and RAC-2 turn on. NAC-2 sounds steady.

• Activation of Z-6 in any situation changes Hazard Area 1 state into Alarm. NAC-1 turns on steady, NAC-2 turns on at 120BPM. The manual release delay timer 1 (MDT-1) is started. Upon the expiration of MDT-1, Hazard

Area 1 state changes to Release. RAC-1 and RAC-2 are activated. NAC-1 and NAC-2 turns on steady.

• When Hazard Area 1 state is in Alarm, if Z-5 is pressed, Release Timer-1 is held and NAC-2 rate changes from

120BPM to Temporal. After releasing of Z-5, Release Timer-1 resumes running and NAC-2 goes back to

120BPM. Release Timer -1 value depends on Abort Delay Type.

• Activation of Z-3 turns both NAC-1 and NAC-2 on steady.

• Activation of Z-4 can be indicated on NAC-2 at 20BPM, if enabled.

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not

81

Warranty & Warning Information be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

Introduction

Introduction

Secutron’s MR-2320 Series Pre-Action/Deluge and Agent Release Control Panel performs the function of fire suppression in a wide variety of applications. It is capable of being used in an agent release sprinkler system or in a pre-action or deluge sprinkler system. It can be used in single-hazard or dual-hazard applications with or without cross-zoning. The panel includes common alarm, supervisory, and trouble relays, and provides regulated and unregulated auxiliary power along with four-wire smoke power. It supports auxiliary relays and a city tie module. The auxiliary relays are based on a hazard area status. The MR-2320 has six input zones and four output zones, allowing for flexibility in most single- and dual-hazard applications for both deluge and agent releasing applications.

Panel Type

The panel can function as an agent release panel or as a pre-action/deluge panel, depending on which of the available fixed configurations are chosen from the main programming menu.

Deluge sprinkler system

In deluge sprinkler system open-valve sprinkler heads terminate to a water supply that is controlled by a single valve. When the system detects fire, it automatically opens the valve via a releasing circuit, allowing the water to flow through all the sprinkler heads. Deluge sprinkler systems are useful for applications in which simultaneous discharge of water through every sprinkler is required.

Pre-action sprinkler system

In a pre-action sprinkler system close-valve sprinkler heads are connected to pipes that are supervised for air pressure. The pipes terminate directly to a water supply. Pre-action systems are useful for applications in which the prevention of an accidental discharge of water is required.

Agent release system

In an agent release system, an extinguishing agent (such as Argon, dry chemical, CO 2 , Halon, etc.) is automatically released upon fire detection. An abort function is added to prevent the false release of the extinguishing agent.

Overall Features

• Basic unit has six Class B (Style B) initiating circuits, which may be configured as Class A (Style D) using input

Class A converter adder modules. Each initiating circuit is pre-configured as Alarm, Supervisory (Latching or non-latching), water-flow, Manual Release Switch, Abort Switch or Manual Release/Abort combination, depending upon the selected pre-programmed configuration. There are two LEDs per circuit, one for Trouble

(amber), and one dual color (amber/red) LED for Supervisory (amber) and Alarm (red).

• Basic unit has 4 power limited class B (style Y) output circuits. Output circuits 1 & 2 are indicating circuits while output circuits 3 & 4 are releasing circuits (circuit 4 can work as an indicating circuit in some situations; check the Pre-Programming Modes section on page for details). Each indicating circuit process type is pre-configured and can be silenceable. The signal rates depend on the selected pre-programmed configuration.

• A pushbutton associated with each initiating, indicating and releasing circuit can individually bypass the circuit.

• Configurable Signal Silence Inhibit and Auto Signal Silence Timers.

• Subsequent Alarm, Supervisory, and Trouble operation.

• Four wire reset-able smoke power supply: 22.3V DC regulated, 300mA maximum.

• Relay Contacts for Common Alarm, Common Supervisory, Common Trouble, and Auxiliary Alarm Relay

(disconnectable).

• RS-485 Interface for MR-2300 Series Remote Multiplex Annunciators and Smart relay Module.

• Optional Modules for additional Relay Circuits, City Tie and Polarity Reversal Signaling.

• Extensive transient protection.

• Easy configuration of the panel using LCD service tool (CFG-300).

• Releasing circuit protection from false alarm by disconnecting the battery if the voltage falls below 19V.

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

Conventions

Circuits

Refers to an actual electrical interface for initiating (detection), indicating (signal), and releasing.

Zone

Is a logical concept for a Fire Alarm Protected Area, and will consist of at least one Circuit.

Often the terms Zone and Circuit are used interchangeably, but in this Manual the term Circuit is used.

Display Points

There is a display point associated with every initiating and indicating circuit of the MR-2320 LED Series fire panel.

For an initiating circuit there are two LEDs for every display point: one single color (amber) and one dual color (red/ amber). For an indicating circuit there is only one LED: one single color (amber), for every display point.

Wiring Styles

Initiating and indicating circuits are Class B (Style B and Y). Changing the initiating circuits to Class A requires an

MR-2300-A adder board which will convert SIX initiating zones from Class B (Style B) circuits to Class A (Style D).

This is done without penalizing the number of circuits, which remains the same as in Class B (Style B). Changing the indicating circuits to Class A requires an MR-2300-NC2 adder board, which will convert TWO indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z). Releasing circuits (Z) are Class B (Style B) only.

All these pins comes with red and black wires which are connected to the detection circuit on the main fire alarm board. Red is positive and black is negative mounting hole for

#6-32 screws

There are no jumpers or cables to set on this module, just wiring from the converter (wires are fixed here) to the

Main Fire Alarm Board.

Initiating circuits must be wired from the MR-2300-A module to the Main Fire Alarm board. For example, Initiating circuit 1 positive (red) and negative (black) wires are connected to the positive and negative terminals (respectively) of Initiating circuit 1 on the Main Fire Alarm Board. From the MR-2300-A converter Initiating circuits are wired out to the devices from the positive and negative terminals marked DET OUT and the circuit return wires are brought back to the converter module to positive and negative terminals marked DET RET.

Cut this jumper for Trouble transmission of supervisory. When this jumper is cut and a supervisory trouble occurs, the designated terminals will transmit a

"zero volts" or "open" circuit. Please note that in normal condition, the terminals polarity is read exactly as labeled on the circuit board.

The Alarm Transmit signal to the MR-2300-PR can be programmed to turn OFF when signal silence is active. This allows the City Tie Box to be manually reset. On subsequent alarms the silenceable signals will resound and the

City Tie Box will be retriggered. See configuration of Alarm Xmit-Sil on page for more information.

The Trouble Transmit signal to the MR-2300-PR can be programmed to delay AC power fail for 0, 1 or 3 hours if this is the only system trouble. See Pwr Fail Dly Tmr configuration on page for more information.

Abort and Manual Release Switch Wiring

Wiring for the abort and manual release switches is shown in Figures 10 and 11 . Depending on the selected mode, the Abort and Manual release switches can either be on different circuits or they both can be on the same circuit.

When on separate circuits, DET5 is used for the Abort switch and DET6 is used for the manual release switch.

When on the same circuit, DET 5 Abort/Manual release combination is for hazard area 1, while DET6 Abort/Manual release combination is for hazard area 2. When an Abort/Manual release combination is used, ensure that the

Manual release switch is always before the Abort switch. Also ensure that there is a current limiting resistor (MP-

1500R/W) between the Manual release and Abort switch for differentiating between the two switches.

Four-Wire Smoke Power (regulated)

Four-wire smoke power is provided for four-wire smoke detectors. This filtered supply is supervised therefore a short will disconnect the power and the common trouble is active. The power is reconnected after the 'RESET' key is pressed. This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/300mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

Supervised Auxiliary Power (regulated)

Supervised auxiliary power is used to power the remote annunciators and smart relay modules. This filtered circuit is supervised therefore a short will disconnect the power and the common trouble is active. The power is reconnected after the 'RESET' key is pressed. This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/500mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

23

Field Wiring

Auxiliary Power (unregulated)

This regulated supply is not supervised. This supply is rated at 24VDC FWR/1.7A max. If there is a short on this circuit, the auxiliary power does not recover automatically when the short is removed. This power supply must be disconnected, then reconnected and the panel reset to re-establish the auxiliary power supply.

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

System Checkout

Before turning the power “ON”

To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the main

AC supply.

1. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.

2. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.

3. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged in properly.

4. Check all jumpers and switches for proper setting.

5. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.

6. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe).

7. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.

The best way to check out a panel first is to not connect any field wiring. Power up the panel with an end of line. The panel should be free of trouble. Then connect one circuit at one time. If a trouble occurs, correct the fault then continue the field wiring.

Power-up procedure

After completing the System Checkout procedures outlined above,

8. Power up the panel. The "AC ON" green LED and the “Common Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound. Press the “System Reset” button. Since the batteries are not connected, the trouble buzzer should sound intermittently and the common trouble LED should flash.

9. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity: the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-).

All indicators should be OFF except for normal power "AC ON" green LED and green LED I4 (below the

TROUBLE relay at left bottom of board).

Note: Green LED I4 is illuminated when the system is normal. This LED indicates that the trouble relay is in normal standby condition.

10.Configure the Fire Alarm Control Panel as described in the Configuration section.

Trouble

Possible Cause

To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop or if the Circuit

Disconnect Button is active. Notes: (1) Bypassing a detection circuit or signal circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal status); (2) Bypassing a releasing circuit will cause a supervisory signal.

Remote Trouble will be indicated on the main panel display for any failure reported by, or failure to communicate with a remote annunciator or other remote device.

This panel has a common ground fault detector . To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the chassis or other Earth Ground connection.

Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.

If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of the above confirming trouble indicators are on, check the following for possible fault:

• Check for any missing interconnection wiring.

• Check for any Module missing that was part of the Configuration.

• Check for improperly secured cabling.

Switches and Common Indicators

The MR-2320 Series panel is a six-zone panel with four output circuits. The circuits are arranged in the following configuration:

Zone 1 Input circuit

Zone 2 Input circuit

Zone 3 Input circuit

Zone 4 Input circuit

Zone 5 Manual Release/Abort switches combination or individual switch

Zone 6 Manual Release/Abort switches combination or individual switch

Out 1

Out 2

Releasing circuit 1

Releasing circuit 2 or NAC3 in some applications

Zone 1 to Zone 4

• Alarm LED (red) turns on steady when an alarm is detected

• Supervisory LED (amber) turns on steady when the circuit is active

• Trouble LED (amber) turns on at slow flash rate when in trouble or bypassed

Zone 5 and Zone 6

• Alarm LED & Trouble LED The zone type and LED behavior varies upon the configuration. Steady when turned on.

Out1 and Out2 (NAC circuits)

• Trouble LED (amber) turns on at slow flash rate when in trouble or bypassed

Out3 and Out4 (Releasing circuits)

• Trouble LED (amber) turns on steady when the circuit is bypassed turns on at slow flash rate when in trouble

Input Circuits Bypass Switch

These bypass switches are used to bypass the input circuit. Bypass is a toggle switch which will bypass and unbypass in a sequence whenever the switch is pressed. When the input circuit is bypassed a trouble is generated and the system will not respond to any trouble or alarm on the bypassed input circuit. If the bypassed input circuit is active and the Bypass Switch is pressed for un-bypassing, the Alarm LED will flash at the fast rate for 10 seconds.

During these 10 seconds, pressing the Bypass Switch can bypass the active input circuit again. After 10 seconds, the bypassed alarm will be processed.

28

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

Output Circuits Bypass Switch

The output circuit bypass switches bypasses the NAC circuit and the releasing circuit. The switch is a toggle switch and pressing it again, will un-bypasses the output circuit the trouble LED turns off.

Common Controls

System Reset Button

The System Reset button resets the Fire Alarm Control Panel and all Circuits. In particular, the system reset button

• Resets all Latching Trouble Conditions

• Resets all Initiating and Releasing Circuits

• Resets 4-Wire Smoke Supply

• Turns off all Indicating Circuits

• Turns off Signal Silence Indicator

• Stops and resets all Timers

• Processes inputs as new events

• Does not affect Aux Disconnect

Signal Silence Button

Activation of the Signal Silence button when the panel is in alarm turns on the Signal Silence indicator and deactivates any Silenceable Indicating Circuits. Non-Silenceable Circuits are unaffected. Signals will re-sound upon any subsequent alarm. Subsequent operation of signal silence resounds all Silenceable signals. This button does not function during any configured Signal Silence Inhibit Timer period.

Auxiliary Disconnect Button

Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button activates the Auxiliary Disconnect function. The Auxiliary Alarm Relay is always disconnected with this button. The Common Alarm Relay, the Common Supervisory relay and all correlated alarm relays may be disconnected as selected through configuration. Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button also causes the Common Trouble LED to illuminate steady, the common trouble relay to send a trouble message and the trouble buzzer to flash at the trouble flash rate. Pressing the Auxiliary Disconnect button again de-activates this function and the system will go back to normal.

Lamp Test Button

Activation of the Lamp Test button causes all front panel Indicators to steadily illuminate and turns the buzzer ON steady. If Lamp Test is active for more than 10 seconds, Common Trouble is activated.

Buzzer Silence Button

Activation of the Buzzer Silence button while the Buzzer is sounding silences the Buzzer. The Buzzer will resound if there is a subsequent event. Pressing the button when the Buzzer is not sounding has no effect.

Circuit (zone) disconnect buttons

Circuit (Zone) Disconnect pushbuttons are provided for all initiating indicating, and releasing circuits on the Fire

Alarm Control Panel. These pushbuttons are located beside their respective indicating LED.

Pressing a Circuit Disconnect pushbutton bypasses the associated circuit and turns on its Trouble Indicator, activating Common Trouble. Pressing a releasing circuit disconnect pushbutton bypasses the associated releasing circuit and turns on its LED, activating common supervisory. While a Circuit is disconnected, all changes in status

(alarms and troubles) on that circuit are ignored. The panel does not activate disconnected indicating circuits.

Circuit Disconnect pushbuttons are toggle switches; therefore, pressing an activated switch a second time will unbypass (reconnect) the circuit.

Disconnecting an active Latching Initiating Circuit (including Alarms, Water flow Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, General

Alarm, and Latching Supervisory) does not affect its status until the panel is reset. Disconnecting an active Non-

Latching Initiating Circuit (including Non-Latching Supervisory and Trouble-Only) causes them to behave as if the alarm situation has disappeared. Disconnecting an active indicating circuit immediately deactivates the circuit.

29

Indicators, Controls and Operations

When an Initiating Circuit Disconnect pushbutton is returned to the normal state (by pressing it again in order to unbypass the circuit), the panel checks the state of the circuit. If the circuit is active, the Status Indicator flashes for 10 seconds at the Fast Rate without processing the input. If the Circuit is not re-bypassed by then, it will be processed as a new input.

Circuit Types

Initiating (Detection) Circuit Types

Non-Verified Alarm

A Non-Verified alarm is a “normal” type of alarm that can have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached to it. Activation of any of these devices will immediately result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm

Control Panel. An Alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Water Flow Alarm (Water flow Sensors)

Water Flow Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms except that any indicating circuits programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are Non-Silenceable. Also, if Water Flow Retard Operation is enabled, these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Water flow Alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm

LED to illuminate red.

Note: Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Non-Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Circuits)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate.

The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will clear (as long as there are no other Supervisory conditions in the system) and the Circuit Status LED will turn off.

Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Devices)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate.

The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will NOT clear.

Abort Switch

When the hazard area is in alarm (pre-discharge) state and the release timer is running, the activation of the corresponding Abort Switch will pause the releasing timer. The release process is held while the Abort Switch is pressed. Releasing the Abort Switch will resume the releasing timer and the corresponding hazard area goes into

Alarm (pre-discharge) state again. The value of the release timer after Abort Switch is released depends on the type

30

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual of Abort Delay in the configuration. When the release timer expires, the corresponding releasing circuit is activated.

When the panel is in normal condition, activation of the Abort Switch will cause a trouble signal and the corresponding zone amber LED turns on at slow flash rate.

Manual Release Switch

Activation of the Manual Release Switch of a hazard area will activate the corresponding releasing circuit. If the corresponding Manual Release Delay is non-zero, the releasing circuit will be activate after the Manual Release

Delay expires.

Combination of Abort Switch and Manual Release Switch

This type of circuit is the combination of both Abort Switch and Manual Release Switch. This combination always applies to the same hazard area. A short condition on the circuit is a Manual Release Active and a current limit condition is an Abort Switch Active.

Indicating (Signal) Circuits Types

Silenceable Signal

The Silenceable Signal circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or automatically.

Non-Silenceable Signal

The Non-Silenceable Signal Circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the evacuation code pattern that is configured by the user. For more information on evacuation codes, refer to Evacuation Codes on page.

Silenceable Strobe

Silenceable strobes will be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed.

Operating the Panel

Operating the Panel

Panel Operation During Various Hazard States

The escalating hazard zone states include Idle, Alert, Alarm and Release. They are defined based on the status of

Hazard Area input zone(s), correlated Abort Switch and Manual Release Switch.

Hazard Idle

• No correlated alarm zone active.

• Release Timer is not started.

• Manual Release Delay Timer is not started.

• Abort Switch is off.

• Manual Release Switch is off.

• Corresponding NAC circuit is off.

• Releasing circuit(s) is off.

Hazard Alert (or equivalently first Alarm in Cross-zoned Application)

• The panel enters the Hazard Alert state when

• a single alarm comes in for a cross-zoned hazard. For non cross-zoned hazard area, a single alarm will put hazard into Hazard Alarm state directly.

• the Abort Switch becomes active during Hazard Alarm state, so that the hazard area state downgrades from

Hazard Alarm to Hazard Alert.

• Release Timer is not started.

• Manual Release Delay Timer is not started.

• Correlated NAC circuit(s) turns on at alert rate.

Hazard Alarm (pre-discharge, or equivalently second Alarm in Cross-zoned Application)

• The panel enters the Hazard Alarm state when

• it detects the confirming alarm for hazard area (single alarm active for the non cross-zoned system, or 2nd alarm active in the cross-zoned system), or

• Manual Release Switch is active.

• Release Timer (RT) is started when the panel enters Hazard Alarm state after by detecting the 2nd alarm in cross-zoned hazard or 1st alarm in non cross-zoned hazard.

• Manual Release Delay Timer is started when the panel enters Hazard Alarm state by detecting the correlated

Manual Release Switch active.

• Releasing circuit(s) will be activated after the Release Timer or Manual Release Timer expires.

• Corresponding NAC(s) turns on at alarm rate.

• During Hazard Alarm State, when the release timer is running and the Abort Switch turns on, the hazard area state will change from Hazard Alarm to Hazard Alert. Release Timer is held and the corresponding NAC sounds the Alert rate. If the Abort Switch is released, the hazard state will go back to Hazard Alarm and the Release

Timer resumes running. The value of release timer depends on Abort Delay Type. The corresponding NAC sounds Alarm rate again.

Hazard Release

• Panel enters Hazard Release when the Release Timer or Manual Release Timer expires. The correlated releasing circuit is activated.

• NAC code for Hazard Release state is steady.

52

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

General Panel Operation

• Activation of Manual Release Switch starts the Manual Release Delay Timer. The expiration of Manual-release

Delay Timer (MDT) activates the releasing circuits consequently. Manual Release Switch overrides the Abort

Switch always and Manual-release Timer (MDT) always overrides Release Timer (RT).

• When the manual release switch is active and the panel is in the Hazard Alarm (pre-discharge) state, Abort

Switch cannot override the Manual Release Switch. Only the System Reset key can interrupt and reset the panel and hazard area.

• System Reset will reset all circuits, including releasing circuits.

• The supervisory circuit can be optionally indicated on NAC-2 circuit. The NAC code of supervisory circuit should be different from those of Hazard Alert or Hazard Alarm. By default, when the NAC code for Hazard Alert is

Temporal, the NAC code for supervisory circuit is 20 BPM or verse visa. This configuration change is automatically done by the panel. If NAC code for alert is chosen other than 20 BPM and Temporal, Supervisory

NAC code will remain unchanged during the configuration.

• In some pre-programmed modes, the Alert Rate and the Alarm Rate are configured the same. So the action of

Abort Switch does not change the NAC rate.

• AB/MR is the combination of Manual Release Switch and Abort Switch in the Agent Release panel. Short condition means Manual Release active. Current Limit means Abort Switch active.

• To avoid the conflict of different NAC code on the same circuit, the priority of signals are defined as, Water-flow alarm has the highest priority, then hazard cadence. The supervisory signal has the lowest priority.

• Soak Timer sets the time period how long the releasing circuits should be active. Upon the expiration of soak timer, the releasing circuits will be shut off. Setting of 0 second means the releasing circuits will be turned on without timer running. They will be shut off upon system reset.

• Abort function is not applicable in pre-action and deluge application.

How the Panel Works in Mode 1

• Activation of either Z-1or Z-2 turns NAC-1 on steady. Hazard Area 1 state changes from Idle into Alert. NAC-2 turns on at Temporal.

• Activations of both Z-1 and Z-2 change the Hazard Area1 state from Alert into Alarm. NAC-1 turns on steady.

NAC-2 turns on at 120BPM. Release timer-1 (RT-1) is started.

• Expiration of Release Timer-1 change Hazard Area 1 state to Release. Both RAC-1 and RAC-2 turn on. NAC-2 sounds steady.

• Activation of Z-6 in any situation changes Hazard Area 1 state into Alarm. NAC-1 turns on steady, NAC-2 turns on at 120BPM. The manual release delay timer 1 (MDT-1) is started. Upon the expiration of MDT-1, Hazard

Area 1 state changes to Release. RAC-1 and RAC-2 are activated. NAC-1 and NAC-2 turns on steady.

• When Hazard Area 1 state is in Alarm, if Z-5 is pressed, Release Timer-1 is held and NAC-2 rate changes from

120BPM to Temporal. After releasing of Z-5, Release Timer-1 resumes running and NAC-2 goes back to

120BPM. Release Timer -1 value depends on Abort Delay Type.

• Activation of Z-3 turns both NAC-1 and NAC-2 on steady.

• Activation of Z-4 can be indicated on NAC-2 at 20BPM, if enabled.

MR-2320 Series Installation and Operation Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not

81

Warranty & Warning Information be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

Circuit (Zone) Disconnect Buttons

Circuit (Zone) Disconnect Buttons

Circuit (zone) disconnect buttons are provided for all initiating and indicating circuits on the fire alarm control panel.

These buttons are located beside their respective indicating LEDs.

Pressing a circuit disconnect button disconnects that circuit from the system and turns on its trouble indicator. While a circuit is disconnected, the panel will ignore all changes in the status (alarms and troubles) of that circuit. Circuit disconnect buttons are toggle switches; therefore, pressing an activated button a second time will reconnect the circuit.

Disconnecting an active latching initiating circuit such as alarms, water-flow alarm, sprinkler alarm, general alarm, and latching supervisory does not affect its status until the panel is reset. Disconnecting active non-latching initiating circuits including non-latching supervisory and trouble-only causes them to behave as if the alarm situation has disappeared. Disconnecting an active indicating circuit immediately deactivates the circuit.

When an initiating circuit disconnect button is pressed a second time, the panel checks the state of the circuit. If the circuit is active and will cause a false alarm, the Status LED flashes for ten seconds at the fast flash rate (red for alarm or amber for supervisory) without processing the input. If the circuit is not re-disconnected by then, it will be processed as a new input.

Understanding On-screen Messages

The LCD screen of the fire alarm control panel displays messages regarding system events. System events display on the screen in a queue. Events in this queue are listed on the screen in order of priority: alarms are of highest priority, followed by supervisory, trouble, and monitor conditions. If the same type of event happens more than once

(for example, two trouble conditions occur successively) they will be listed in the order of the most recent event to the least recent event. If an alarm, supervisory, or trouble condition occurs, their respective LED will flash.

Scroll through the events by using the

MR-2306-LD Installation and Operation Manual

Conventions

Circuits

Refers to an actual electrical interface for Initiating (Detection) and Indicating (Signal) or Relays.

Zone

Is a logical concept for a Fire Alarm Protected Area, and will consist of at least one Circuit.

Often the terms Zone and Circuit are used interchangeably, but in this Manual the term Circuit is used.

Display Points

There is a display point associated with every initiating and indicating circuit of the MR-2306 LED Series fire panel.

For an initiating circuit there are two LEDs for every display point: one single color (amber) and one dual color (red/ amber). For an indicating circuit there is only one LED: one single color (amber), for every display point.

Wiring Styles

Initiating and indicating circuits are Class B (Style B and Y). Changing the initiating circuits to Class A requires an

MR-2300-A adder board which will convert SIX initiating zones from Class B (Style B) circuits to Class A (Style D).

This is done without penalizing the number of circuits, which remains the same as in Class B (Style B). Changing the indicating circuits to Class A requires an MR-2300-NC2 adder board which will convert TWO indicating zones from Class B (Style Y) circuits to Class A (Style Z).

There are no jumpers or cables to set on this module, just wiring from the converter (wires are fixed here) to the

Main Fire Alarm Board.

Initiating circuits must be wired from the MR-2300-A module to the Main Fire Alarm board. For example, Initiating circuit 1 positive (red) and negative (black) wires are connected to the positive and negative terminals (respectively) of Initiating circuit 1 on the Main Fire Alarm Board. From the MR-2300-A converter Initiating circuits are wired out to the devices from the positive and negative terminals marked DET OUT and the circuit return wires are brought back to the converter module to positive and negative terminals marked DET RET.

Cut this jumper for Trouble transmission of supervisory. When this jumper is cut and a supervisory trouble occurs, the designated terminals will transmit a "zero volts" or "open" circuit. Please note that in normal condition, the terminals polarity is read exactly as labeled on the circuit board.

The Alarm Transmit signal to the MR-2300-PR can be programmed to turn OFF when signal silence is active. This allows the City Tie Box to be manually reset. On subsequent alarms the silenceable signals will resound and the City

Tie Box will be retriggered. See Configuration and CFG-300 Service Tool on page 32 for more information.

The Trouble Transmit signal to the MR-2300-PR can be programmed to delay AC power fail for 0, 8 or 18 hours if this is the only system trouble. See Configuration and CFG-300 Service Tool on page 32 for more information.

Four-Wire Smoke Power (regulated)

4-wire smoke power is provided for 4-wire smoke detectors. This filtered supply is supervised therefore a short will disconnect the power through the relay until the “RESET” key is pressed. A trouble signal will be generated once there is a short. This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/300mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

Supervised Auxiliary Power (regulated)

Supervised auxiliary power is used to power the remote annunciators and smart relay modules. This filtered circuit is supervised therefore a short will disconnect the power through the relay until the “RESET” key is pressed. A trouble signal will be generated once there is a short.This supply is rated at 22.3VDC regulated/500mA max/1V voltage drop maximum.

Auxiliary Power (unfiltered)

This unfiltered supply is not supervised. This supply is rated at 24VDC FWR/1.7A max. If there is a short on this circuit, the auxiliary power does not recover automatically when the short is removed. The main power must be disconnected, then reconnected and the panel reset to re-establish the auxiliary power supply.

System Checkout

System Checkout

Before turning the power “ON”

To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the main

AC supply.

1. Check that all modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.

2. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.

3. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged in properly.

4. Check all jumpers and switches for proper setting.

5. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.

6. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe).

7. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.

The best way to set up a panel for the first time is to avoid connecting any field wiring at first. To begin set up, power up the panel with an end of line resistor. The panel should be free of trouble. If the panel is free of trouble, connect one circuit at a time, checking for troubles each time. If a trouble occurs at any point during the setup, correct the fault, then continue the field wiring.

Power-up procedure

After completing the System Checkout procedures outlined above,

8. Power up the panel. The "AC-ON" green LED and the “Common Trouble” LED should illuminate, and the buzzer should sound. Press the “System Reset” button. Since the batteries are not connected, the trouble buzzer should sound intermittently and the common trouble LED should flash.

9. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity: the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-).

All indicators should be OFF except for normal power "AC ON" green LED and green LED I4 (located at the left bottom of panel, near the trouble relay).

Note:

Green LED I4 is illuminated when the system is normal. This LED indicates that the trouble relay is in normal standby condition.

10.Configure the Fire Alarm Control Panel as described in the Configuration section.

Troubleshooting

Symptoms

Common Trouble

Possible Cause

Normally when a circuit trouble occurs, its designated trouble indicator will be illuminated, as well as the common trouble indicator and trouble buzzer. To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that particular circuit loop or that the Circuit Disconnect Switch is in the ON or

CLOSED position.

Note: Disconnecting a Circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal position).

Remote Trouble will be indicated on the main panel display for any failure reported by, or failure to communicate with a remote annunciator or other remote device.

This panel has a common ground fault detector . To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the chassis or other Earth Ground connection.

Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble. If battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.

If the Walk Test LED is illuminated steadily, the system is in Walk Test Mode.

If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of the above confirming trouble indicators are on, check the following for possible fault:

• Check for any missing interconnection wiring.

• Check for any Module missing that was part of the Configuration.

• Check for improperly secured cabling.

Indicators, Controls and Operations

Common Indicators

Buzzer

The Buzzer is activated by any of the following events:

Fire Alarm: Steady

Supervisory Alarm: Fast Flash

Trouble: Trouble Flash Rate

If the Buzzer is turned on in response to a Non-Latching Trouble or Supervisory, it will be turned off if the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason for it to be on.

AC ON LED

The green AC ON Indicator will steadily illuminate as long as the main AC power is above minimum level. The indicator turns OFF when the level falls below the power-fail threshold and the panel is switched to standby (battery) power.

Common Alarm LED

The red Common Alarm Indicator steadily illuminates whenever the panel alarms on any initiating circuit. Since all alarms are latched until the panel is reset, the Indicator will remain ON until then.

Common Supervisory LED

The amber Common Supervisory Indicator turns ON steady when there is a Supervisory Alarm in the Panel caused by any Latching or Non-Latching Supervisory Circuit. The Indicator is turned OFF when all Non-Latching

Supervisory Circuits are restored and there are no active Latching Supervisory Circuits. Latching Supervisory

Alarms remain active until the Panel is reset.

Common Trouble LED

The amber Common Trouble Indicator turns ON steady when the panel detects any trouble condition. It turns OFF when all Non-Latching Troubles are cleared.

Remote Trouble LED

The amber Remote Trouble Indicator flashes at the Trouble Flash Rate if there is trouble detected at a City Tie or

DACT, or if there is communication trouble detected with a Remote Annunciator or if a Remote Annunciator reports a local trouble. It is turned off if these conditions go away.

Fire Drill LED

The amber Fire Drill Indicator illuminates steadily while Fire Drill is active.

Walk Test LED

The amber Walk Test Indicator illuminates steadily to indicate that the panel is in Walk Test Mode. If the Panel is left in this mode for over an hour with no operator activity, the panel will return to normal and the Walk Test indicator will turn OFF.

CPU Fail LED

The amber CPU Fail LED Indicator flashes at the Trouble Flash Rate to indicate a microprocessor failure on the main board.

Auxiliary Disconnect LED

The amber Auxiliary Disconnect Indicator flashes at the Trouble Rate when the Auxiliary Disconnect button is pressed. It turns OFF when the Auxiliary Disconnect button is pressed a second time. When ON flashing, the

Auxiliary Disconnect Indicator signifies that the Auxiliary Alarm Relay is disconnected. Depending on the programming the auxiliary disconnect switch can also disconnect the common alarm and supervisory relay, see

Configuration section. When the Auxiliary Disconnect LED is flashing, the trouble buzzer will also sound.

22

MR-2306-LD Installation and Operation Manual

Signal Silence LED

The Signal Silence indicator flashes amber, at the trouble rate, when indication Circuits are Silenced either by the

Signal Silence button, or by the Auto Signal Silence Timer. It is turned off when the Signals are re-sounded by a subsequent Alarm.

Battery Trouble LED

The amber Battery Trouble Indicator flashes at the Trouble Rate when the Battery is either low (below 20.4 VDC) or disconnected.

Ground Fault LED

The amber Ground Fault Indicator flashes at the Trouble Rate when the Ground Fault Detector detects a Ground

Fault on any field wiring. It turns off when the Ground Fault is cleared.

System Reset LED

This indicator is activated for a short time when the RESET key is pressed.

System Reset Button

The System Reset button resets the Fire Alarm Control Panel and all Circuits. In particular, the system reset button

• Resets all Latching Trouble Conditions

• Resets all Initiating Circuits

• Resets 4-Wire Smoke Supply

• Turns off all Indicating Circuits

• Turns off Signal Silence

• Turns off Fire Drill

• Stops and resets all Timers

• Processes inputs as new events

• Does not affect Aux Disconnect

Signal Silence Button

Activation of the Signal Silence button when the panel is in alarm turns on the Signal Silence indicator and deactivates any Silenceable Indicating Circuits. Non-Silenceable Circuits are unaffected. Signals will re-sound upon any subsequent alarm. Subsequent operation of signal silence resounds all Silenceable signals. This button does not function during any configured Signal Silence Inhibit Timer period. It also does not function if the Indicating

Circuits are active as the result of a Fire Drill.

Fire Drill Button

The Fire Drill button activates all Non-Disconnected Indicating Circuits, but does not transmit any Alarms via the

City Tie, Common Alarm Relay or Auxiliary Alarm Relay. Fire Drill activates the signals in the evacuation code programmed. For example in the Temporal Code, the signals will be pulsed ON for 0.5 seconds, OFF for 0.5 seconds in rounds of 3 and then pause for 1.5 seconds and repeat.

Fire Drill is cancelled by pressing the button again, or if the Panel goes into a real alarm.

Auxiliary Disconnect Button

Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button activates the Auxiliary Disconnect function. The Auxiliary Alarm Relay is always disconnected with this button. The Common Alarm Relay, the Common Supervisory relay and all correlated alarm relays may be disconnected as selected through configuration. Activating the Auxiliary Disconnect button also causes the Common Trouble LED to illuminate steady, the common trouble relay to send a trouble message and the trouble buzzer to flash at the trouble flash rate. Pressing the Auxiliary Disconnect button again de-activates this function and the system will go back to normal.

25

Indicators, Controls and Operations

Lamp Test Button

Activation of the Lamp Test button causes all front panel Indicators to steadily illuminate and turns the buzzer ON steady. If Lamp Test is active for more than 10 seconds, Common Trouble is activated. The lamp test for CPU Fail

LED is during power up.

Buzzer Silence Button

Activation of the Buzzer Silence button while the Buzzer is sounding silences the Buzzer. The Buzzer will resound if there is a subsequent event. Pressing the button when the Buzzer is not sounding has no effect.

Circuit (zone) disconnect buttons

Circuit (Zone) Disconnect pushbuttons are provided for all initiating and indicating circuits on the Fire Alarm Control

Panel. These pushbuttons are located beside their respective indicating LED.

Pressing a Circuit Disconnect pushbutton bypasses the associated circuit and turns on its Trouble Indicator, activating Common Trouble. While a Circuit is disconnected, all changes in status (alarms and troubles) on that circuit are ignored. The panel does not activate disconnected indicating circuits. Circuit Disconnect pushbuttons are toggle switches; therefore, pressing an activated switch a second time will un-bypass (reconnect) the circuit.

Disconnecting an active Latching Initiating Circuit (including Alarms, Water flow Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, General

Alarm, and Latching Supervisory) does not affect its status until the panel is reset. Disconnecting an active Non-

Latching Initiating Circuit (including Non-Latching Supervisory and Trouble-Only) causes them to behave as if the alarm situation has disappeared. Disconnecting an active indicating circuit immediately deactivates the circuit.

When an Initiating Circuit Disconnect pushbutton is returned to the normal state (by pressing it again in order to unbypass the circuit), the panel checks the state of the circuit. If the bypassed input circuit is active and the Bypass

Switch is pressed for un-bypassing, the Alarm LED will flash at the fast flash rate for 10 seconds. During these 10 seconds, pressing the Bypass Switch can bypass the active input circuit again. After 10 seconds, the bypassed alarm will be processed.

Disconnect pushbuttons are also used during Walk-Test as described in the System Checkout section.

Common Relays

Common Alarm Relay

The Common Alarm Relay activates when the common alarm sequence is activated. The common alarm relay is disconnected by aux disconnect if programmed (see Configuration section). Since all alarm conditions are latched until system reset, the relay will remain ON until the alarm is cleared and the system is reset.

Common Supervisory Relay

The Common Supervisory Relay activates when the common supervisory sequence is activated as the result of an alarm on any un-bypassed latching or non-latching supervisory circuit. The relay is turned OFF if all non-latching supervisory circuits are restored and there are no latching supervisory circuits active. The relay can be disconnected by aux disconnect if programmed (see Configuration section). The relay will function the same way as an alarm relay if the supervisory relay is disabled ( see Configuration section ).

Common Trouble Relay

The Common Trouble relay is activated when the common trouble sequence is activated as the result of the trouble condition being detected on the system. It is turned off when all troubles are cleared.

Note:

Some troubles are latching once they are detected they remain active until system reset. In this case the common trouble indicator will also remain active until system reset. The common trouble is not bypassed by the auxiliary disconnect function.

26

MR-2306-LD Installation and Operation Manual

Auxiliary Alarm Relay

The Auxiliary Alarm Relay functions the same way as the Common Alarm Relay in every respect except that it can be disconnected by auxiliary disconnect with or without other correlated relays if it is programmed to do so (see

Configuration section). When configured ( see Configuration section ), the relay can also be disconnected if signal silence is active and reconnected if signal silence is de-activated.

Circuit Types

Initiating (Detection) Circuit Types

Non-Verified Alarm

A Non-Verified alarm is a “normal” type of alarm that can have pull stations, smoke detectors, or heat detectors attached to it. Activation of any of these devices will immediately result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm

Control Panel. An Alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Verified Alarm

Verified Alarms are verified by a reset and timing procedure, and may include smoke detectors, heat detectors or pull stations. Activation of pull stations or heat detectors will result in an alarm condition in the Fire Alarm Control

Panel within four seconds. Smoke detectors will be verified for a real alarm within 60 seconds, depending upon the startup time of the devices being used. If four seconds is too long a response time for pull stations, then wire them separately on a Non-Verified Alarm Circuit. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the

Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Water Flow Alarm (Water flow Sensors)

Water Flow Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms except that any indicating circuits programmed to these circuits (all are by default) are Non-Silenceable. Also, if Water Flow Retard Operation is enabled, these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Water flow

Alarm is confirmed and processed. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common

Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note:

Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Sprinkler Alarm (for Sprinkler Flow Sensors)

Sprinkler Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms unless Water flow retard operation is enabled. If Water

Flow Retard Operation is enabled, then these circuits are sampled every one second. If ten samples are active within any 15-second interval, the Sprinkler Alarm is confirmed and processed. An Alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red.

Note:

Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed

120 seconds.

Non-Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Circuits)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate. The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will clear

(as long as there are no other Supervisory conditions in the system) and the Circuit Status LED will turn off.

Latching Supervisory (For Supervisory Devices)

Activation on these circuits will cause the Circuit Status LED and the amber Common Supervisory LED to illuminate. The buzzer will sound at fast rate. If the circuit activation is removed, the Supervisory condition will NOT clear.

27

Indicators, Controls and Operations

Monitor

This is a supervised general-purpose non-latching input used mainly for correlating to a relay circuit. No other system condition occurs as a result of its activation (short-circuit), although it is supervised for Trouble (open-circuit).

Trouble-Only

The Trouble-Only circuit monitors a Trouble Condition from an external device such as an external Audio System.

Both open and short circuits generate a non-latching Trouble condition.

Indicating (Signal) Circuits Types

Silenceable Signal

The Silenceable Signal circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during Single-Stage Alarm.

Non-Silenceable Signal

The Non-Silenceable Signal Circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during Single-Stage Alarm.

Silenceable Strobe

Silenceable strobes will be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed. For synchronous strobes see supported protocol/devices section. (NB: Strobes do not support any code pattern .

Non-Silenceable Strobes

Non-Silenceable Strobes will not be silenced when the “signal silence” key is pressed. For synchronous strobes see supported protocol/devices section. (NB: Strobes do not support any code pattern .

In a single stage system all alarm inputs are treated in a similar manner. Alarm inputs include any of the following:

Non-Verified Alarm, Verified Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, Water flow Alarm, and General Alarm Circuits. If any of these alarm inputs occur when the panel is not already in alarm, the following occurs:

• The Buzzer sounds steadily

Supported Protocols/Devices

Supported Protocols/Devices

Synchronous Strobes

The synchronous strobe models that are supported by the MR-2306 panel include Secutron models MRL-ST and

MRA-HS. A separate compatibility list is available for different supported models (LT-1007).

Strobes can be configured as normal (e.g. not synchronized or any of the above; see configuration section). Any selection made is system-wide (e.g. whatever is selected applies to all the circuits in the system, configured as strobes).

“Signal silence” action on strobes

The “signal silence” action on strobes depends upon the configuration. The following describes the signal silence action on non-silenceable and silenceable strobes.

Non Silenceable strobe

If the output zone is configured as Non-Silenceable Strobe and if the “signal silence” is active on the panel while the strobes are active, the horn should be silenced. If the signal is active again the panel will activate the horn again.

Silenceable strobe`

If the output circuit is configured as Silenceable Strobe, and if the “signal silence” is active on the panel, both the horn and strobe are completely turned off by turning off the output circuit. Re-activating the “signal silence” will turn them on again.

Note:

Please see the strobes manufacturer’s data for details.

System Sensor’s i

3

Devices

The MR-2306 fire control panels support System Sensor’s i

3

devices. Only the two wire smoke detectors are supported on the i

3

zone, which are 2W-B and 2WT-B. Model 2WT-B features a build in fixed temperature (135F /

57.2C) thermal detector and is capable of sensing a freeze condition i.e. if the temperature is below 41F / 5 C.

The zones should be programmed to i

3

devices to be considered as i

3

zone (see configuration section). If the zone is not programmed as i

3

zone and i

3

devices are connected to the zone, it is simply treated as a regular zone. The panel is capable of detecting multiple troubles; if different devices have different troubles on the same zone, all troubles will be reported. The following troubles are reported for the i

3

devices.

i 3 zone Troubles

The following troubles can be reported for a zone configured as i

3

zone:

• Open circuit trouble

• Communication trouble

• High Maintenance and Low Maintenance (Out of sensitivity: defective or dirty device)

• Freeze trouble

MR-2306-LD Installation and Operation Manual

Open circuit trouble

If the loop is broken the panel shows open loop trouble. The panel can still communicate with the devices depending upon where the open occurs.

Z o n e - 1

T r o u b l e O p e n 1 / 1

Communication Trouble

If there is a fault in the line or the line is too noisy, the panel cannot communicate with the devices. The panel shows a communication trouble in this case.

Z o n e - 1

C o m m u n i c . T r b 1 / 1

High Maintenance trouble

A High Maintenance trouble means that one or more units on the i3 zone have exceeded the high sensitivity limit and are vulnerable to false alarms. The unit does not need to be serviced immediately, but should be cleaned out at the earliest possible time.

Z o n e - 1

H - M a i n t T r b 1 / 1

Low Maintenance trouble

A Low Maintenance trouble means that one or more units on the i3 zone have exceeded the low sensitivity limit and their ability to detect smoke is compromised. The unit should be serviced immediately.

Z o n e - 1

L - M a i n t T r b 1 / 1

Freeze trouble

If the device has detected a freeze condition, (e.g. the temperature is below 41F / 5 C) then the panel will show a freeze trouble. Only model 2WT-B is capable of thermal detection; model 2W-B does not indicate any freeze trouble.

Z o n e - 1

F r e e z e T r b . 1 / 1

The LEDs on the i

3

smoke detectors provide a local visual indication of the detector status.

The smoke detector LED status should be confirmed with the panel, since High and Low Maintenance Troubles have the same LED indication on the detector and the only way to distinguish between the two is to use the CFG-

300 Configuration Tool and check the log messages as noted above.

Configuration and CFG-300 LCD Service Tool

There are three methods of configuring the MR-2306 LED Series Fire Alarm Panels:

1. Using the CFG-300 LCD Tool (see further documentation packaged with CFG-300 for configuration information).

2. Using a PC or Lap Top Computer with a UIMA converter module.

3. Using a PC or laptop computer with remote connection (must use fire alarm with built-in UDACT).

The following information for configuring an MR-2306 LED Series Fire Alarm Panel is based on using CFG-300 LCD service tool for configuration.

To access configuration mode using a CFG-300 tool, connect the CFG-300 and then press the Menu button.

The CFG-300 LCD display will display the Main Menu. The function of different buttons on the front panel display is shown in F igure 20, below.

Note:

Refer to How to Use the Keypad to Program the MR-2300 on page 34 for detailed instructions on making menu selections.

Walk-Test allows an installer to verify the initiating circuit wiring in a system. When walk test is selected, the following screen confirms the operation:

P e r f o r m t h e w a l k t e s t ? Y

Press the “ENTER” key to activate the walk test and the “CANCEL” key to cancel the walk test. The next screen will allow zones to be selected for walk test. Use the “UP” and “DOWN” keys to scroll through the zones and use the

“LEFT” or ‘RIGHT” keys to select a zone. Press the “ENTER” key when you are done with all the selections.

- W a l k t e s t a c t i v e -

A l a r m : 0 0 T r b : 0 0

The activation of any initiating circuit that has been selected for a walk test will cause the Audible Indicating Circuits

(not Strobes) to activate briefly for a number of short bursts corresponding to the selected circuit number. If the first selected circuit is activated, the indication circuits will sound for one burst. If the second selected circuit is activated, the indication circuits will sound for two bursts, and so on. This means that if, for example, circuits 1, 3 and 5 were selected for the walk test, they would sound with one, two and three bursts respectively. The burst interval is half a second on and half a second off. After the sounding pattern has been sent on the indicating circuits, the initiating circuit is reset and tested again. If it is still active (in alarm) the pattern will be re-sent. Trouble on any initiating circuit selected for the walk test activates the indicating circuits continuously for five seconds. Activation of a circuit will also cause the alarm count to increase while the trouble on the initiating circuit will cause the trouble count to increase.

Alarm Verification and Water flow Alarm Retard Operations are disabled on circuits being walk tested. All circuits not selected for the walk test continue to function normally. If a circuit was disconnected before the walk-test mode was entered and is not selected for the walk-test, it remains disconnected while the walk test is active. Walk test operation is disabled if the Fire Alarm Control Panel is in alarm or goes into alarm while the walk test is active.

Notes:

• If a UDACT is used with the system, all walk-test events will be reported to the monitoring agency. The monitoring agency should be instructed to ignore reported events during the walk-test.

• IF THERE IS NO ACTIVITY FOR ONE HOUR, THE SYSTEM WILL RETURN TO NORMAL

OPERATION.

CFG-300 LCD Service tool operation

If an LCD service tool is connected to the panel, you will only be able to view the latest message–you cannot scroll through them. In order to see all of the messages, you must enter the programming menu and see the event logs.

The logs are arranged so that the most recent message is shown first. Listed below are the different kinds of messages that can be displayed on the LCD service tool.

Zone messages

Point annunciation is indicated on the LCD. There are no separate queues for “TROUBLE”, “ALARM”,

“SUPERVISORY” and “MONITOR”; instead there is only one queue that indicates all the events. The respective

TROUBLE, ALARM, SUPVISORY and MONITOR LEDs will be flashing if at least one of the given types is in the queue.

The LCD service tool will only show the first alarm or trouble. If a trouble happens first and then an alarm, the alarm will be displayed. Any further events will change the total number of events, shown in the right hand corner of the

LCD display. The order of priority is alarm, supervisory, trouble and monitor.

MR-2306-LD Installation and Operation Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not

65

Warranty & Warning Information be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

MR-2312-S Installation and Operation Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side

7

Warranty & Warning Information of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.

MR-2300-LCD Installation and Operation Manual

Warranty & Warning Information

Warning Please Read Carefully

Note to End Users: This equipment is subject to terms and conditions of sale as follows:

Note to Installers

This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. Failure to properly inform system endusers of the circumstances in which the system might fail may result in over-reliance upon the system. As a result, it is imperative that you properly inform each customer for whom you install the system of the possible forms of failure.

System Failures

This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, such as fire or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Alarm systems of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some reasons for system failure include:

• Inadequate Installation

A Fire Alarm system must be installed in accordance with all the applicable codes and standards in order to provide adequate protection. An inspection and approval of the initial installation, or, after any changes to the system, must be conducted by the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction. Such inspections ensure installation has been carried out properly.

• Power Failure

Control units, smoke detectors and many other connected devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If the system or any device connected to the system operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be fully charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a fire alarm system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended.

• Failure of Replaceable Batteries

Systems with wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition.

•Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices

Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.

•System Users

A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm.

•Automatic Alarm Initiating Devices

Smoke detectors, heat detectors and other alarm initiating devices that are a part of this system may not properly detect a fire condition or signal the control panel to alert occupants of a fire condition for a number of reasons, such as: the smoke detectors or heat detector may have been improperly installed or positioned; smoke or heat may not be able to reach the alarm initiating device, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side

9

Warranty & Warning Information of closed doors; and, smoke and heat detectors may not detect smoke or heat from fires on another level of the residence or building.

• Software

Most Secutron products contain software. With respect to those products, Secutron does not warranty that the operation of the software will be uninterrupted or error-free or that the software will meet any other standard of performance, or that the functions or performance of the software will meet the user’s requirements. Secutron shall not be liable for any delays, breakdowns, interruptions, loss, destruction, alteration or other problems in the use of a product arising our of, or caused by, the software.

Every fire is different in the amount and rate at which smoke and heat are generated. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson.

Even if the smoke detector or heat detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death.

•Alarm Notification Appliances

Alarm Notification Appliances such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If notification appliances are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible notification appliances may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible notification appliances, however loud, may not be heard by a hearingimpaired person.

• Telephone Lines

If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also the telephone lines may be compromised by such things as criminal tampering, local construction, storms or earthquakes.

•Insufficient Time

There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time enough to protect the occupants or their belongings.

•Component Failure

Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component.

•Inadequate Testing

Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be discovered by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested as required by national standards and the Local Authority

Having Jurisdiction and immediately after a fire, storm, earthquake, accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

•Security and Insurance

Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.

IMPORTANT NOTE: End-users of the system must take care to ensure that the system, batteries, telephone lines, etc. are tested and examined on a regular basis to ensure the minimization of system failure.
