Main Control Panel Peripheral Bus Settings
NOTE: The main control panel should be set to a number in the range of 10 to 99 when using
repeaters.
This is done by logging onto Engineers Mode and selecting option 9 Panel Details, then select
option 4 PNL Identification, then option 1 Panel Number. The write Enable switch will need to
be on for changes to take place.
To setup the main control panel to use repeaters, log into Engineers Mode and select Option 3 Enable /
Disable, then option 5 peripheral bus and set the peripheral bus to ON.
From the main Engineers Menu select option 11 Peripheral Bus, within this select:
Option 1 PB RDU Supervise. In this option there is a list of 1 – 8 repeaters, (RDUs).
Enable the repeater(s), (RDUs) that are being used and are connected to the panel.
This will enable the panel to monitor the repeaters and report them as missing if there is a cable break
or loss of communications.
When this is done press ESC to go back into option 11 Peripheral Bus. The main control panel should
now be setup for the repeater(s).
Note:
If RDU addresses are enabled that are not on the network the panel will report them as “Missing”.
