User Button Alternate Functions
Passcode Access
The user interface has an option that requires users to
enter a security code before the front panel functions
become active. All passcodes must be 4 digits in length
using numbers 1 through 9 (0 cannot be used).
Passcodes may only be changed using PipeIQ software.
PipeIQ is also capable of locking out buttons individually,
so that certain buttons may be accessed without a
passcode, if desired.
The default passcode is ‘1111’.
The TEST button enters digits, the
MODE
/
RESET
button
is used to enter the unlock mode and the ISOLATE
button increments the current digit.
To enter the passcode mode, press and hold the
MODE
/
RESET
button for 8 seconds - the first segment
on the flow indicator first illuminates yellow, then green.
When the segment illuminates green, release the
MODE
/
RESET
button. The first segment on the airflow
display blinks green, indicating the device is ready to
accept the first digit.
To enter the passcode, use the ISOLATE and TEST
buttons, shown in Figure 10.
The ISOLATE button is used to increment the current
digit. As the current digit is incremented the segments of
the Particulate Bar Graph illuminate accordingly.
To complete entry of the digit, press the TEST button. As
each digit is entered the airflow segment illuminates solid
green and the next segment begins to flash, indicating
the next digit is ready to be entered. After the 4th digit is
entered, the Fault indicator illuminates green, if the
passcode was accepted and remains green as long as
the detector is “unlocked”. If the passcode was not
accepted, the Fault indicator illuminates amber for 3
seconds then the device returns to its previous state.
Once the passcode is accepted, the locked out button(s)
become active. After 45 seconds of inactivity the Fault
indicator begins to blink green. After an additional 15
seconds the detector re-locks the button(s) and returns to
Normal operation.
Note: If the RESET button is chosen as a locked button,
and a Reset is initiated, the device requires the
passcode to regain access to the RESET button.
The FAAST 8100 has two types of addressing
capabilities. In addition to the IP Address, the FAAST
system can also have a local address that is assigned
through the configuration software. The address can be
between 1 and 255. This address can be accessed from
the user interface by pressing and holding the RESET
button for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds, the first segment
on the airflow display illuminates amber, shown in Figure
10, indicating the device is in address blink mode.
Release the RESET button and the device shows the 3
digit number assigned by lighting the particulate bar
graph with the appropriate number of segments for each
digit. The current digit displayed is indicated by the 3 left
most indicators on the air flow graph. The first digit is the
100’s and illuminates for 2 seconds. Next, the tens digit
illuminates for 2 seconds, followed by the ones digit
illuminating for 2 seconds. If one of the numbers is zero,
then no lights will illuminate for that number on the
particulate graph.
The device then returns to Normal operating mode.
The FAAST 8251BPI can output its’ 3-digit address
through the user interface. This can be accessed from
the user interface by pressing and holding the MODE
button for 3 seconds. After 3 seconds the first segment
on the airflow display turns amber indicating the device is
in Address Blink mode. Release the MODE button and
the device gives the 3-digit address by lighting the
particulate bar graph the appropriate number of
segments for each digit. The current digit displayed is
indicated by the 6 left-most indicators on the airflow
graph. The first 3 segments are the loop.
