Chapter six: Functions of manual control panel
The system may be externally connected with multiple manual control panels to serve as direct
manual control equipment for users. Each bus manual control panel (2U panel) contains 30
manual control buttons for the control over 30 bus modules. Each of the manual control buttons
has two lights (a REQ. light and a FEEDBACK light) to indicate the state of the module
controlled by it.
Hereunder is an outside view of a manual control panel.

Fig.6-1 Manual Control Panel
Each manual control button needs to occupy a module address, so each manual control panel
needs to occupy 30 continuous bus module addresses. The quantity of the manual control
panels that may be accessed to a fire alarm control panel depends on the quantity of the
interface boards. There are 11 initial positions of the 30 module addresses for selection: 1, 31,
61, 91, 121, 151, 181, 211, 241, 271 and 301. The specific address settings may be determined
by four jumpers JP1, JP2, JP3 and JP4 on the circuit board. When the jumpers jump to the
upper end
, it is “1” (HIGH); when they jump to the lower end, it is “0” (LOW). The corresponding
addresses are given as follows.

User’s Tip:
Each 30 manual control panels are designed to
be a group. During configuration, the manual
control panels should be increased by the
integral multiples of 30.
