MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 PROGRAMMING MANUAL

Introduction

The MPC-6000/7000/RND-2 Fire Alarm Control Panels are completely field programmable. Although programming requires no special software skills, a thorough working knowledge of Fire Alarm Control Panels and devices is assumed. There are two ways to program an MPC-6000/7000/RND-2 fire alarm system control unit from the front panel keypad:

1. Auto Program. Using Auto Program will quickly configure the FACP in a General Alarm configuration.

2. Manual Program. Editing the program manually using the keypad.

Both methods require that the Technician password be entered so that the Technician functions may be accessed. Jump to the Quick Start section if you need to get a system up and running quickly.

Note: All references to the Releasing Application programming options are available on the MPC-6000 panel only.

The Access levels

The MPC-6000/7000/RND-2 system has three functional levels as follows:

•

User Level, no password is required to access these functions.

The Operator Interface

Interface for User and Maintenance Levels

The operator interface for configuring and programming the MPC-6000/7000 uses the 4 line by 20 character LCD display, the M1 through M4 buttons on the left and right of the display and sixteen push buttons at the bottom of the interface. User Level and Maintenance Level utilize the LCD display and the four buttons (two on each side of the display) to navigate and alter the basic operation of the panel. The display will show messages in the four corners of the display that will be adjacent to the four buttons M1 through M4. The message on the display adjacent to the button indicates the action that will occur when the button is pressed. Therefore pressing M1 will cause the function labeled as “Menu 1” to be pressed.

M1 or 1 M3 or A

M2 or * M4 or D

Note: When programming in Technician Level, M1=1 on the keypad, M2=* on the keypad, M3=A on the keypad and M4=D on the keypad.

For example, in the following figure, menu item 1 (Lamp Test) is described as having an

Action of ‘Run Lamp Test’. If the button next to Lamp Test is depressed, Lamp Test will

be performed. Menu item 2 (View History) will cause the first event in the event history to be displayed on the screen.

MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 PROGRAMMING MANUAL

Interface for the Technician Level

When the Technician Level is accessed using the password, the LCD display and the keypad are used to program the panel, and to view the programming if desired. The display acts as a menu and the keypad allows the user to navigate through the menu of functions and change or print the programming. The following figure describes the navigation used in this context:

A-esc: will backup to previous screen

Each menu item is associated with "A", "B", "C", or "D" buttons on the keypad. Pressing

one of these keys will cause the panel to go to the function associated with the button.

For example

Entering Alphanumeric Characters

Entry of alphanumeric data using the keypad is as follows:

•

Each character is entered using a two-keystroke sequence on the keypad.

•

Numerals are entered using the sequence 0x, where x is the numeral to be entered.

•

Letters are entered using 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x sequences, based on the letters appearing

above the numbers on the keypad, where the first digit (1, 2, 3 or 4) is the position of the letter and the second digit is the numerical key on which that letter appears. For example, to enter the letter “A” use the sequence “12”. To enter the letter “N” use the sequence “26”. Exceptions are the letters “Q” and “Z” which do not appear on the keypad. The letter "Q" is entered using the sequence "27", as though "Q" appears on the "7" between "P" and "R". The letter "R" is entered as "37" and "S" as "47". Similarly, "Z" is entered as "49", as though "Z" appears on the "9" key. Punctuation marks are entered using 5x, 6x, 7x, and 8x sequences, as shown below:

CHARACTER SEQUENCE CHARACTER SEQUENCE

<space> 50 > 70

•

Insert and overwrite modes can be toggled using the "C" key.

•

Entering the same letter into a position in overwrite mode will change the case of the letter

(i.e., if a position contains the letter "f", and the user enters "33" in overwrite mode, the "f" will change to "F").

•

A character may be deleted by pressing the “9” key.

•

Pressing the * key will move the cursor back one space; pressing the # key will move the

cursor forward one space.

QUICK START

Automatic programming of a new system

This is the quickest way to get a system operational. After all of the devices, notification appliances and option modules have been programmed and installed, check all wiring for grounds, shorts and opens. Connect SLUs, SRUs, NACs and any other field wiring to the panel.

Automatic programming is selected from the Technician Level. Below are the steps to access the Technician Level.

Autoprgm screen. The display will show all of the addresses being checked as the auto program is performed. This could take several minutes. As each new device is found, the display will allow the installer to chose whether to include the found device. When the autoprogram is finished, the screen will return to the Edit options.

Page 11

MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 PROGRAMMING MANUAL

Step Action Description

Note NOTE #1: The backup configuration will now contain a configuration as follows:

all input points in group #241 (General Alarm). The General Alarm System group is pre-programmed to activate all output zones. Any Remote LCD displays that were connected at the time of Auto Program will also be activated. However remote relay (SRUs) and remote Led modules (SLUs) will not be detected and so will not be in the configuration.

4 At the EDIT BACKUP screen, press “A”

and escape back to TECH LEVEL

screen.

5 Use “C” to get to the next set of functions

and select “validate”.

6 Press the “*” key followed by the "C" key

when prompted. This action will cause the autoprogrammed configuration to be swapped into the primary memory and the panel will be restarted. (You now have as the primary configuration the result of the Auto Program. In other words, a General Alarm system.)

The display will show the starting technician menu.

This will cause the data in the backup configuration to be checked. Correct any errors found before continuing. The panel will reset and reinitialize.

Manual programming of a system

Manual programming is a much more involved operation and requires knowledge of the operation of the system before proceeding. The basic steps to programming a system configuration are as follows:

IMPORTANT NOTE: Special considerations apply to programming an RND-2 panel as

opposed to either an MPC-6000 or MPC-7000 panel. No devices (inputs or outputs), no NACs, no SLUs nor any SRUs can be connected or programmed. Only the MPC-DACT DACT board or the CT-1K City Tie board, the RDC-2 Annunciator and the network may be connected and programmed to an RND-2 panel.

Page 13

MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 PROGRAMMING MANUAL

Programming Concepts

Program Memory

The program memory consists of two components, the PRIMARY (active) configuration and the BACKUP (editable) configuration. The primary configuration is the active

(running) configuration that determines the current function of the FACP. The backup configuration is the configuration that is edited to make changes or additions to the existing active panel program. This allows the program to be edited while the FACP operates normally.

Before the backup configuration is activated, it first must be validated to make sure that the configuration follows the installation rules. The validation process ensures no values or operating parameters are out of limits.

When the edited configuration is activated, all changes are implemented at once by swapping the primary and backup configurations. The backup configuration becomes the primary (running) configuration and the configuration that was running becomes the backup configuration.

NOTE: At this point it is advisable to copy the primary configuration to the backup so that both configurations are identical. There is a copy feature that allows the operato copy the primary configuration to the backup.

one and only one output Zone.

Each relay can have its output behavior configured, i.e., non-silencable, trouble active, supervisory, prealarm, silenceable, trouble silence, supervisory silence.

Remote relays and remote

Monitor modules and detector

base relays can connect to one

and only one output zone.

The MPC-6000 and MPC-7000 programming model

Page 15

MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 PROGRAMMING MANUAL

The basic concept is that loop devices are configured and grouped into input groups. The input groups are set to have a certain behavior and activate output zones. The output devices―whether relay bases, audible bases, NACs, serial LEDs or Serial relays―are configured and connected to Output Zones.

Automatic Programming

Auto-program can be done with a new, non-configured control unit or to augment an existing configuration. Augmenting an existing program adds new points but leaves previously programmed points unaffected. Discrepancies in the configuration will be presented individually for acceptance. Again, auto program writes information into the backup and must be validated before becoming the primary operating configuration.

Auto Program will recognize the types of devices connected and will set up different parameters depending on the devices it finds. The following tables show the settings for the different device types.

Smoke and thermal detectors

Group Type Description

Fire Typical fire group. Activates selected output zones when an event occurs in the

group.

Counting Used for Counting Zone operation. In this mode of operation, at least the number of

devices given on the Activation Threshold screen must be active before the corresponding Output Zones will activate.

Page 34

MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 PROGRAMMING MANUAL

Group Type Description

NFPA 72 National Fire Alarm Code requires the following for Counting Zone:

1) There shall be at least two automatic detectors in each protected space.

2) The alarm verification feature shall not be used.

3) The detectors shall be installed at spacing determined in NFPA 72, when used to initiate fire safety functions or fire extinguishing systems.

4) The detectors shall be installed at a linear spacing not more than 0.7 times the linear spacing determined in NFPA 72, when used to activate public mode notification.

PAS Positive Alarm Sequence group as defined by NFPA. The alarm signal from a device

selected for positive alarm sequence operation will activate selected output zones of the PAS Group. The signal shall be acknowledged within 15 seconds in order to initiate the alarm investigation phase. If the signal is not acknowledged within 15 seconds then selected output zones of the associated Timeout Group will activate. The Timeout Group must be a Fire Group that activates an audible NAC.

The investigation phase (Timer) can be programmed from 60 to 180 seconds. If the system is not reset during this period, the Timeout Group will activate.

If a second PAS alarm occurs during the investigation phase, the selected output zones of the associated Timeout Group will activate.

If PAS is disabled, then the initial alarm signal will activate the selected output zones of the PAS Group and the output zones of the associated Timeout Group.

Pre-Signal Pre-signal as defined by NFPA allows initial Fire Alarm signals to sound only in

department offices, control rooms, fire brigade stations or other constantly attended central locations for which human action is subsequently required to activate general alarm or a feature that allows the control equipment to delay the general alarm by more than 1 minute after the start of alarm processing. If there is a connection to a remote location, the transmission of the alarm signal to the supervising station shall activate upon the initial alarm signal.

On the initial alarm, the selected output zones associated with the pre-signal group will activate. The delay of activation of additional output zones can be programmed from 60 to 180 seconds. If the system is not reset during this period, the output zones of the associated Timeout Group will activate. The Timeout Group must be a Fire Group.

Wild Card

Wild Card zone for non-fire operation allows monitoring of critical functions with logging

or control function. The event will latch and will not reset until the panel is reset. Releasing Group

This group type is the only input group that can activate the releasing circuit. When

this type is selected, the following parameters have to be configured:

- Releasing Group Threshold setting: This sets the threshold to initiate a

Pre-Discharge condition and can be selected from the following: Any 1

alarm, Any 2 alarms, Any 1 smoke detector and Any 1 thermal device.

- Releasing Circuit Activation: This selects the releasing circuit that will

activate when this Group is initiated.

- Releasing Circuit Code Selection: This screen allows the user to select

the type of pre-defined signal for the releasing NAC type to play if the

condition has been met. 1

Alarm, Discharge and Pre-discharge are

defaulted to activate Steady ON.

Output Zone:

This sets the output zones that the releasing group activates. NOTE: Any alarm condition that is initiated from the releasing input group will generate a general alarm condition.

Notes:

1. Zone Coding signals are not allowed to be associated with the Releasing Input Group.

2. When the Releasing Input Group utilizes the predefined signal codes on its releasing NAC outputs, all other Input Group type NAC outputs must be set to Steady On only.

3. Releasing should be enabled before selecting a releasing group.

4. 8701, 8702, 8703 and 8704 devices assigned to “Drill,” “Alert” or “Recall” system groups should have their usage set to supervisory.
