Slave Communicator Configuration
CHAPTER 6
Slave Communicator Configuration
The MS-5024UD may be used as a slave communicator to a host or master FACP (fire alarm control panel). All wir-
ing between the master and the slave communicator is supervised. 4.7K ohm End-of-Line resistors should be
connected.
In slave configuration, the five zones become five channels that may be triggered by the relay outputs of any host
FACP. The five channels function as follows:
• Zone/Channel 1 - general alarm
• Zone/Channel 2 - general trouble
• Zone/Channel 3 - may be programmed to match the FACP relay function
• Zone/Channel 4 - supervisory
• Zone/Channel 5 - may be programmed to match the FACP relay function
The factory settings for Zone/Channel 2 alarm and restoral are altered as follows:
• If
0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, B
or
D
is entered for address 16 or 42, the report code for Zone 2 Alarm Code
(address 128 & 252) is 'F' and the Zone 2 Restoral Code (address 156 & 280) is 'E'.
• If
1, A
or
C
is entered for addresses 16 or 42, the report code for Zone 2 Alarm Code (addresses 129-130 &
253-254) is 'FF' and the Zone 2 Restoral Code (addresses 185-186 & 309-310) is 'EF.'
• If
E
is entered for addresses 16 or 42, the report code for Zone 2 Alarm Code and Restoral Code (addresses
130-132 & 254-256) is ‘300.’
The factory settings for Zone/Channel 4 alarm and restoral are altered as follows:
• If
0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, B
or
D
is entered for address 16 or 42, the report code for Zone 4 Alarm Code
(address 130 & 254) is '8' and the Zone 4 Restoral Code (address 158 & 282) is 'E'.
• If
1, A
or
C
is entered for addresses 16 or 42, the report code for Zone 4 Alarm Code (addresses 133-134 &
257-258) is '84' and the Zone 4 Restoral Code (addresses 189-190 & 313-314) is 'E4.'
• If
E
is entered for addresses 16 or 42, the report code for Zone 4 Alarm Code and Restoral Code (addresses
136-138 & 260-262) is ‘200.’
Location 56 must be programmed to a '1' to enable the control panel as a slave communicator.
Note that remote site upload or download is permitted in the Slave Communicator configuration, however, alarm
presignal and verification do not function in Slave mode.
Be certain to connect the slave communicator's primary AC power to the same branch circuit as the host FACP.
