Required Setup Sequence
It is necessary to follow the correct setup sequence for the controller to function correctly:
Before proceeding ensure that the installed Detector Nodes have the required I/O configuration. This
can be amended using IGD’s Android Service App if required. Ensure there are no duplicate
addresses on each operational cable highway.
1
. If more then one hub card is present perform a
HUB FIND
. If there is only one hub this stage can
be ignored. If the system has more than one hub card then the
Map
option will display how the system
has found and installed hubs
2
. Perform a
SENSOR FIND
. This will setup the correct sensor channel configuration and correct
number of channels. Sensors will be allocated to channel numbers based on the lowest sensor
address being allocated to the first available channel number and then sequentially thereafter. Note
that the channel sequence can be adjusted afterwards using the
Re-order
function, to group sensors
if required. Use the
Sensor Comms test
function to check for correct communication.
3
. Perform a
RELAY FIND
, this will set up the correct number of system relays. Note that the relay
sequence cannot be moved around in the same manner that the sensors can and MUST be
programmed in the sequence they are found. If relays are moved around after a FIND then the alarm
relay setup will still work but relay diagnostics will not perform correctly. The reason for this is that the
diagnostic routines will expect relay addresses to be grouped, correlating to their devices. For
example an 8 way relay card may number 110 to 118 but an annunciator may only be using one relay
address. Mixing the single relay address into the sequence of an 8 way relay card will stop the
diagnostic routine displaying and operating correctly. Use the
relay comms test
function to check for
correct communication.
Relay Test
can be used to turn the installed relays on and off individually. This
provides a method to test that the correct external devices are wired and function correctly to the
expected system relay.
4. Use the
Alarm Relays
function to determine what triggers each system relay.
5. Check through
System Options
to ensure all required global settings are correct.
