Operator
Interface
The Model RCP-1 Panel uses LEDs and
KEYs as its primary means of display-
ing status information and controlling
the system. It allows the occupants to
monitor the status of the Model RCP-1
Panel and its circuits.
The LEDs are located along the left
and right sides of the Operator Inter-
face (Figure 3). Three KEYs are located
along the lower edge of the Operator
Interface.
LEDs
•
ALARM LEDs
A flashing red LED adjacent to the
SPRINKLER (IDC1) indicates an
alarm.
•
TROUBLE LEDs
A flashing yellow Trouble LED for one
of the IDCs, NACs, or RACs indi-
cates the presence of a circuit break
or ground within a system point, or
somewhere in the wiring between the
control panel and one of its points.
•
SUPERVISORY LED
A flashing yellow SUPERVISORY LED
indicates a problem with the condi-
tion of the sprinkler system controls
or normal status (for example, closed
valve position for Main Control Valve,
closed valve position for System
Control Valve, or high air condition).
•
SYSTEM TROUBLE LED
When a TROUBLE condition occurs,
the SYSTEM TROUBLE LED flash-
es until accepted. When accepted, it
changes from flashing to steady.
•
AC POWER LED
When lit steady, the Green AC
POWER LED indicates that the Elec-
tronic Control of the Model RCP-1
Panel is receiving AC power that is
within the specified range.
If the LED is not lit and the Panel is
still functioning, the Electronic Con-
trol is using battery power to oper-
ate. The cause for loss of AC Power
should be determined and correct-
ed. The system is in a normal stand-
by condition when only the Green AC
POWER LED is ON.
•
SYSTEM RELEASED LED
The Red SYSTEM RELEASED LED
turns on steady when the RAC circuit
is activated. Activation of the RAC cir-
cuit energizes the Solenoid Valve to
permit water to enter the sprinkler
system piping. RAC1 is utilized, and
RAC2 is spare.
•
EARTH FAULT LED
The Yellow EARTH FAULT LED turns
on steady when there is a wiring fault
from circuit to Earth.
•
Lamp (LED) Test
A lamp (LED) test can be performed
by pressing and holding the AC-
CEPT SIGNAL KEY for a duration
of five seconds. Performing a lamp
test lights all LEDs on the system
and verifies that all system LEDs are
functioning.
