Network Controllers Manual
Programming Notes
Note:
When using a CM2ND, zones xx94, xx95, AND xx96 are used
by the CM2ND, and can not be assigned to addressable devices.
Example: A CM2ND with start panel address 05 has two ZAS cards
installed. Addresses 0594, 0595, 0596, 0694, 0695, 0696, 0794, 0795,
0796, 0894, 0895, and 0896 are not available for assignment to
addressable devices.
The RESET switch generates a supervisory short on zone xx97, and
sends a supervisory open zone xx96 to the CM1N/FCC.
The ALARM SILENCE switch generates a supervisory short on zone
xx98 and sends a xx95 supervisory open to the CM1N/FCC.
To suppress supervisory open condition messages resulting from the
operation of CM2ND Indicating Appliance Circuits in an alarm
condition, a "<" character must be placed at the beginning of each
Notification Appliance Circuit message located under zone response.
CM2ND reset, alarm silence and power supply zone messages resulting
from reset and alarm silence switch operation are automatically
suppressed.
An FCC PCPU network controller is NOT capable of message routing
to a CM2ND.
Do not route a CM2ND message back to itself or duplicate messages
will appear.
Regenerative Mode
Supervisory short xx97 must be defined to activate action 9002 (Reset)
for CM2NDs to operate in the regenerative mode.
Supervisory short xx98 must be defined to activate action 9004 (Alarm
Silence) for CM2NDs to operate in the regenerative mode.
IRC-3 Network Mode
1. Create a data entry file WITHOUT zones xx95 and xx96 defined.
(xx = CM2ND panel address). Compile and download.
2. Add zones xx95 and xx96 to the file created in step 1, defining them
as sensors set for priority response. Define zone xx95 zone response
as supervisory open activation 9004 (Alarm Silence). Define zone
xx96 zone response as supervisory open SET 00 01 97 if global
resets from the CM2ND are required. (Individual panel reset is
00xx97.) (xx=Panel start address).
3. Save, recompile and download the file to the CM1N (panel #1)
ONLY. This puts the zone responses in the CM1N data base,
however the CM2ND will never know to poll devices xx95 and
xx96.
