10.0 System Configuration
26
10.4 Factory Default Configuration
The system as shipped from the factory is configured with no Adder Modules, and with certain set defaults. The
Default settings are below.
• All Input Circuits are Style B (Class B) Alarms (any Alarm on any input circuit activates all output circuits)
• Indicating Circuits are all Common Alarm and set as Signal, Temporal Code. If shorts exist on any indicating
circuits, then they will not activate on alarms
• All Indicating and Relay correlations are set to Common Alarm activation
• Aux Disconnect will disconnect correlated relays
• Relay Adder(s) activate only on Common Alarm
• System assumes there are no Adder Modules
10.5 Restore To Default / Resize
Restoring the System to the Default Configuration is performed whenever it is desirable to restore the Factory
Default Configuration, and also whenever Circuit Adder Modules (Signal or Relay) are added, removed, or
rearranged.
Restore Defaults - Style B / Class B
• Set Config DIP Switch to 0111 1111 (Restore Defaults).
• Wait 5 seconds.
• Press Select & Confirm Buttons together for 5 seconds.
• Wait 5 seconds.
• Set Config DIP Switch to 0100 0000 (Resize System *).
• Wait 5 seconds.
• Press Select & Red Buttons together for 5 seconds.
• Wait 10 seconds.
10.6 Resize System (Set Adder Module Number & Type)
Resizing the System without performing a full Restore to Defaults may be done if the only change is adding an
Adder Module. It should not be performed other than as part of a full Restore to Defaults, if Adder Modules are
removed, or inserted between existing Modules, otherwise Circuit specific Configuration may be mis-assigned.
For Adder Modules added after existing Modules, in order to Resize
• Set Config DIP Switch to 0100 0000 (Resize System
*
).
• Wait 5 seconds.
• Press Select & Confirm Buttons together for 5 seconds.
• Wait 10 seconds.
The System is now ready for further Configuration, or Configuration Mode may be exited if the Default Settings for
the added Modules are acceptable.

During the Resize (Set Adder Module Number & Type) part of the operation, the Select LED flashes to indicate
how many Display Modules and Adder Modules (including the main board) are found. The Select LED flashes for
the number of Display Modules first, followed by the number of Circuit Adder Modules. If no Adder Modules are
found the LED flashes once for the main board, if one Adder Module is found it flashes twice, etc. For example if a
BPS-1100 system has two Adder Modules, the Select LED will flash once for the Main Display Module, pause, flash
three times (once for the main BPS-1100 board and once for each of the adder modules), long pause and repeat.
Note:
The Select LED indicates how many Adders (plus the main board) are found, not how many the
System is Configured to accept. If the number of Adders found is different from the number the
System is Configured for, the system will be in trouble.
