REINITIALIZE FSLC DEVICES
This menu item is typically used when replacing a
defective SLC device while keeping the existing Fire system in operation (thus al-
lowing the Fire system to continue to protect life and property). This selection is
intended to ensure valid communication and correct operation for each Fire SLC
device in the system.
When initiated, power is removed from the GEMC-FW-SLC bus (the common path-
way that connects all of the Fire SLC devices), then power to the GEMC-FW-SLC
bus is restored. Each device's pre-existing configuration (stored within each de-
vice) is retained. To ensure each device's ability to respond to the Fire SLC circuit
board, each Fire SLC device "type" is retrieved from each device by the GEMC-FW
-SLC circuit board (this process takes about 20 seconds, depending on the number
of devices). The retrieval of each SLC device "type" indicates each device's ability
to respond to the Fire SLC circuit board; for each successful retrieval, the GEMC-
FW-SLC instructs each device to use its pre-existing configuration.
FULL FSLC INITIALIZATION
Use this selection when you wish to re-establish a "starting" condition for all Fire
SLC devices in the system,
without
the need for the system to remain in operation.
To ensure all devices are operating correctly, this selection clears all memory from
each Fire SLC device in the system, verifies communication with the Fire SLC cir-
cuit board, and restores each device's programming by sending data stored within
the Fire SLC board memory back to each device.
Note:
This re-initialization pro-
cess may take up to 1.25 hours to complete, depending on the number of SLC de-
vices in the system.
Note:
When a Full FSLC Initialization is performed and the
control panel is in "Disable Remote Reporting" mode, Remote Reporting will be en-
abled.
A full Fire SLC device initialization is also available in PCD-Windows Quickloader
download software. In the PCD-Windows Quickloader toolbar, click
Panel History
,
Status History
, and click the "
Fire SLC Init
" button.
