with all the zone names.
The RDU logs an event when it has zone names waiting to be written to flash memory and
logs a second event after it finishes writing the zone names to flash.

TEXT PROGRAMMING WITH A PC
Text names for zones, relays, etc, may be entered from a programming terminal/PC using
the printer port. To program text from a PC, enter program mode using the keypad and LCD
in the usual way and select programming of text.
When the LCD is showing the following text entry menu:
Text 1:Site 2:Zone 3:Relay 4:Anc relay 5:Alarm text 6:Fault text 7:Tandem pwd
the programming terminal/PC connected to the printer/programmer serial port can be used
to enter text. The LCD must remain showing the above menu. Pressing any key on the
RDU front panel keypad will terminate the entry of text from the PC.
To initiate the entry of text, the ENTER key must first be pressed on the programming
terminal/PC. A prompt will then appear as follows.
Enter Znn, An, S, F, P, Q :
The type of text being entered must first be selected by entering one of the options listed,
followed by the ENTER key. Either upper case or lower case z, a, s, f, p or q may be used.
A text name can then be entered followed by the ENTER key.
If PanelX/ Tandem LCD mode is being used (via the local printer/programming port), the
SET/EDIT key can be used (with the text entry menu showing on the display) to enable text
entry mode on the programming terminal. To terminate text entry mode and return to
Tandem LCD mode, type Q ENTER.
1. To enter a zone text name, type: Znnn ENTER where nnn is the zone number (1-528).
2. To enter an ancillary relay name type: An ENTER where n = 1, 2 or 3.
3. To enter the site name type: S ENTER
4. To enter Fault action text type: F ENTER
5. To enter the Tandem LCD password type: P ENTER
If a valid selection is entered, the message: "Enter Text :" will appear. The desired text can
be entered, followed by ENTER. To exit from text entry mode type: Q ENTER or press the
CLEAR key on the keypad.
The DELETE or BACKSPACE keys may be used to delete the last character typed, and the
ESCAPE key may be used to abort the text entry for the selected item. After the ENTER key
is pressed the message "Saved OK" will appear if the text has been saved correctly into
memory.
To load a file of text names from the PC into the RDU, the file should be set up as shown in
the following example. The names may actually be in any order, and it is not necessary to
have a name for every zone or relay, etc.
Ensure that the last name in the file is followed by a carriage return before the end of the file,
i.e., put a blank line at the end of the file. The characters S, Z, etc, must always be in
column 1 and the text names must also start in column 1 of the following line (unless leading
spaces are required, but this is unlikely).
