4.2.5
Table 4-1 shows the normal settings for the PARC-3 transponder and receiver
addresses of each PARC-3 on a loop. Under normal conditions the switch settings
shown are the “default” settings of the MX-2000 or the DCU Data Collection Unit, and
the switches in each PARC-3 are set to match.
4.2.6
A system is normally laid out so that the first four zones come from the first
PARC-3, zones 5 through 8 come from the second PARC-3, and so on through the 40
zones of the first loop. This convention is required when using the DCU. It also
minimizes the need to rearrange the zone configuration with the MX-2000, but is not
required.
4.2.7
Table 4-1 shows the settings for the 10 PARC-3 transponders, the zones
associated with each PARC-3 transponder, and the settings for the PARC-3 switches
that are associated with those zones. Most systems can be set up using this standard
set of PARC-3 switch settings. These settings are repeated on loops two and three. The
configuration can be changed on site, if necessary, to facilitate variations in zoning.
4.2.8
Table 4-1 contains space on the right hand side for recording the locations of
your PARC-3 units. Copy and retain Table 4-1 for as-built information.
4.2.9
Table 4-1 contains a column lVpp voltage. This measurement will be
made at each PARC-3 and recorded during system start up and testing.
