2.1 DVP-120M General Description
The DVP-120M exhaust fan controller, in conjunction with Macurco™ gas detector, controller, transducers, provides automatic
controls to help maintain an acceptable environment in parking garages or other facilities. The DVP-120M system is designed to
meet specifications for safety in enclosed parking garages, including the Uniform Building Code and OSHA 50ppm CO
requirements. The standard DVP-120M can control up to twelve gas sensors via the 4-20 inputs on Channel 1 – Channel 12 as
well as up to 87 digital addressable sensors via Modbus inputs on the DVP-485. Sensors can be in any combination (i.e. CO, NO
EX, etc.). The DVP-120M is ready for operation after the wiring is complete and the user system configuration is entered.
2.2 DVP-485 Modbus® Adapter
The DVP-485 Modbus® adapter increases the capacity of the DVP-120 from 12 detectors to 99. The DVP-120M is the ModbusEnabled version of the DVP-120 with up to 87 Modbus addressable sensors on three channels of 29 sensors per channel, plus
the original 12 analog 4-20mA sensor channels. System wiring includes 4-20mA current loop and RS-485 serial detector interface
as well as main power connection for the DVP-120M, the fan control and alarm connections from the DVP-120M to the building
ventilation and automation systems. The RS-485 serial interface is from the DVP-120M to the remote detectors. Power to these
detectors is provided by isolated/remote low voltage power supply. See section 2.4 Remote Sensor Connection for more
information regarding remote power supplies.
2.3 MRS-485 Modbus Adapter
The Macurco MRS-485 adapter is an accessory used to convert the 4-20mA analog signal from Macurco 6-Series type detectors
to a digital signal for use with the DVP-120M and other multipoint addressable systems. The Macurco MRS-485 simply plugs into
the back of the detector and a single screw fastens it in place. The MRS-485 accepts the 4-20mA output and is powered from
the same connection as the detector. The MRS-485 mounts to a Macurco 6-Series detector installed on a 4” x 4” electrical box

With the exception of the safety ground, all field wiring is completed via fixed terminal connectors (provided). After wiring,
simply plug the modular connectors into the matching connectors on the printed circuit board (PCB).
Note: It is recommended to always install with wires enclosed within the rigid metallic conduit.
DVP-120M (Analog)
The power and signal connections to the remote mounted sensors should be size AWG18 (minimum) for short runs. Refer to
Table 3-2 for recommended wire gauges. Four conductor cables may be used in all cases since the DVP-120M employs DC
power for remote sensors to help prevent electrical noise from interfering with the sensor output signal.
Do not bundle sensor power and/or signal connections with other AC power cables to prevent electrical interference. If other
AC power connections must be bundled with the DVP-120M sensor cables, the sensor connections should be made with two
twisted pairs of the appropriate gauge, with an overall foil and braid shield. All shields should be terminated at the DVP-120M
end of the cable only. A ground stud is provided near the bottom left corner of the panel.
Note: For more detailed information on Analog connections please see Section 3.2.3 (Remote Sensor Connection) DVP-120M
(Analog) section.
DVP-120M (Digital)
The power connections to the MRS-485 and remote mounted sensors and should be size AWG18 (minimum) for short runs.
Refer to Table 2-2a for recommended wire gauges. The power for the MRS-485 adapter is connected via a two terminal screw
type connector, 12 to 24 VAC or 12 to 24 VDC and no polarity.
The MRS-485 adapter output is wired in the standard 2W-Modbus circuit definition with selectable built-in terminating resistors
at the ends of the RS-485 bus. It is recommended to always use twisted wires to reduce noise and allow for reliable data
communication over greater distances. For best performance use shielded 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair providing a
pair for signal (A & B), common (COM) and shield ground (SHD) connections. Use at least 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair
providing a pair for signal (A & B) and common (COM) connections. The Macurco MRS-485 Modbus output is connected via a
four terminal screw type connector.
Running the Modbus cable adjacent to or in the same conduit with high voltage wires is not recommended as there may be
interference from the high voltages.
3.2.2 Power Connection
The main power cable should be routed into the bottom left conduit entry. Macurco recommends a minimum wire size of
AWG18 and the wire insulator must be rated for 140
AWG. The safety ground wire should be secured to the ground stud at the bottom left of the cabinet with the lock washer and
nut supplied. Use a ring terminal for the ground connection. Refer to Table 2-1 for DVP-120M power connections. The line and
neutral wires should be stripped 1/4 in. (6.5 mm), insert the wire into the wire cavity of the fixed terminal connector. Ensure
that the wire cannot be easily pulled from the connector.

DVP-120M (Digital)
A Modbus over Serial Line Cable should be shielded for best performance. The shield should be connected on each detector at
SHD terminal and connected to a ground terminal or chassis only at one end of the bus. An RS485-MODBUS must use a
balanced pair (for A-B) and a third wire (for the Common). For RS485-MODBUS, Wire Gauge must be chosen sufficiently wide to
permit the maximum length (1000 m or 3281ft). AWG 24 is always sufficient for the MODBUS Data. Category 5 cables may
operate for RS485-MODBUS, to a maximum length of 600 m 1968.5 ft. For the balanced pairs used in an RS485-system, wire
with a characteristic impedance of higher than 100 Ohms may be preferred, especially for 19200 and higher baud rates.
Note: It is recommended to always use twisted wires to reduce noise and allow for reliable data communication over greater
distances. Use at least 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair providing a pair for signal (A & B) and common (COM)
connections.
For best performance use shielded 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair providing a pair for signal (A & B), common (COM)
and shield ground (SHD) connections.

3.2.3.1 Topology
An RS485-MODBUS configuration without repeater has one trunk cable, along which devices are connected, directly (daisy
chaining) or by short derivation cables. The trunk cable, also named “Bus”, can be long. Its two ends must be connected on Line
Terminations. (see Line Termination - End of Line Resistor section). The use of repeaters between several RS485-MODBUS is also
possible.
3.2.3.2 Length
The end to end length of the trunk cable must be limited. The maximum length depends on the baud rate, the cable (Gauge,
Capacitance or Characteristic Impedance), the number of loads on the daisy chain, and the network configuration (2-wire). For a
maximum 9600 Baud Rate and AWG26 (or wider) gauge, the maximum length is 1000m 3281ft. The derivations must be short,
never more than 20m 65.5ft. If a multi-port tap is used with n derivations, each one must respect a maximum length of 40m
131ft divided by n.
3.2.3.3 Grounding
The Common circuit (COM) must be connected directly to protective ground, preferably at one point only for the entire bus.
3.2.3.4 Power Wire
All field wiring is completed via modular connectors (provided). After wiring, simply plug the modular connectors into the
matching connectors on the MRS-485. The power connections to the remote mounted detectors should be size AWG18
(minimum) for short runs. Since Macurco detectors are rated for operation between 12 and 24 VDC or VAC, the voltage drop
between the power supply and the MRS-485 should not be an issue if the recommended power wire gauge guidelines below are
followed. The terminals will accept wire from 16 to 28 AWG. To install a wire, strip back approximately 0.25 in. (6 mm) of

Power Supply
Selection of a UL Listed NEC Class 2 power supply which can power MRS-485 connected to 6-Series detectors.
• MRS-485 is rated 3.25W with detector connected.
• E.g. If there are 12 detectors then the minimum power which the power supply needs to deliver is 12 detectors x 3.25
W/detector = 39W
So, a 24VDC, 60W power supply will work.

3.2.4 Relay Connection
All poles of the three relays are available at the modular connector R1 R2 R3 (see Figure 2- for details). R1 R2 R3 is a 9-position
variant of the high voltage modular connector used for power input. Each terminal can accommodate a wire size 12 to 24 AWG.

To install the wiring for the relays, disconnect the connector from the header on the PCB. Strip the insulation of each wire back
approximately 1/4 in. (6.5 mm), insert the bare wire into the terminal and tighten the screw clamp. Ensure that the wire cannot
easily be pulled from the connector.

3.2.6.1 Analog channels
Macurco sensors with current loop outputs may be used with the DVP-120M. Visit www.macurco.com for information on
compatible Macurco gas transducers. See specific information on other manufacturer’s transducers.
Power connections to Macurco sensors used with the DVP-120M are polarity-insensitive (no polarity), since a bridge rectifier is
connected to the power input terminals. All sensors used with the DVP-120M panel employ screw clamp terminal blocks for
power and signal connections. Polarity of the current loop connections is marked on the printed circuit board of the sensor.
3.2.6.2 Digital Channels
The Macurco MRS-485 Adapter converts the Macurco 6-Series 4-20mA analog output to a digital output for use with the DVP120M and other addressable network systems.
1. Remove the 4-20mA/Power plug from the Macurco 6-Serires gas detector
2. Plug the MRS-485 adapter into the empty socket.
3. Install the provided MRS-485 screw.
4. See the wiring diagram for wire connection.

3.2.6.3 Connection
The Macurco MRS-485 output is connected via a four terminal screw type connector. The MRS-485 adapter is wired in the
standard 2W-Modbus circuit definition with selectable built-in terminating resistors at the ends of the RS-485 bus. The power
for the MRS-485 adapter is connected via a two terminal screw type connector, 12 to 24 VAC or 12 to 24 VDC and no polarity.
Note: Running the Modbus cable adjacent to or in the same conduit with high voltage wires is not recommended as there may
be interference from the high voltages.

3.2.6.4 Line Termination – End of Line Resistor
The MRS-485 and DVP-485 adapters are wired in the standard 2W-Modbus circuit definition with selectable built-in terminating
resistors at the ends of the RS-485 bus. The MRS-485 and DVP-485 adapters provide integral termination for end of line resistors
(EOL). The terminations use 4-pin connector with jumper to select termination: The user selects no termination or one of the
two Modbus line termination options. The MRS-485 and DVP-485 adapters have two-line termination options provided onboard
that should cover most situations.
Figure 3-10 EOL Placement
Place the EOL jumper on one of the following positions:
• N = No termination (default)
• 2 = 120 ohm
• 1 = 100 ohm
REV – 2.2.1 [34-8708-4770-6 ] 17 | Page
Page 17
Determining EOL Use
At the baud rate of 19200 (default baud rate for Macurco MRS-485 and DVP-485) and with cables less than 1,000 ft. in length,
termination resistors are not recommended.
At the baud rate of 19200 and with cables longer than 1,000 ft., termination resistors are recommended.
The value of termination resistors is chosen based on the type of cable used.
• If a RS-485 type of cable is used, then use 120 ohms for the termination resistors.
• If a Cat 5 type of cable is used, then use 100 ohms for the termination resistors.
An RS-485 network requires a 3-wire cable: a twisted pair and a third wire. It is difficult to tell whether shielding is required or
not in a particular system until problems arise, so it is recommended to always use shielded cable.
If a Cat 5 type of cable is used, then use 100 ohms for the termination resistors. Be aware that the most common cable is Cat 5eUTP (unshielded twisted pair) which may work over shorter distances and in less demanding applications with low EMI noise
level (because it is unshielded). Make sure to use a pair for data lines and a third or a pair twisted together for the common
connection.
When using termination resistors use only 2 resistors, one at each end of the RS-485 transmission line (i.e. 1 at the DVP-485 and
1 at the last/farthest MRS-485). Because DVP-485 uses three RS-485 transceiver channels, 2 termination resistors are used for
each RS-485 channel of the network.
Using Other Baud Rates
For any other baud rates calculate when (at what length) termination resistors are required. Calculate the length as 1000 ft.
divided by the ratio between the new baud rate and 19200.
( 19200 ⁄)
For example, if new baud rate is 9600
1000
(9600 19200 ⁄)
1000
=
0.5
= 2000
Use termination resistors when cables are longer than 2000 ft.
For example, if new baud rate is 38400
1000
(38400 19200 ⁄)
1000
=
2
= 500
Use termination resistors when cables are longer than 500 ft.
Note: Other manufactures may have different recommendations on wire length and EOL resistor usage.

3.2.7 DIP Switches and Addressing
Each MRS-485 (and the partner gas detector) must be configured to a unique address. If there are 10 detectors on the serial
line, then 10 unique addresses must be used, one for each detector. To set the address, use the eight DIP switch positions. For
each unit choose the value from 13 to 99 (see chart) and set the eight switches to match the address. UP means ON or 1 and
DOWN means OFF or 0. For example, to configure a unit as address “50”, set switches “2, 5, 6” (see table) to ON or in the up
position (01001100). See page 11 for a list of applicable addresses and dip-switch settings.
Note: Address 1 – 12 are reserved for the twelve analog channels (C1-C12) on the DVP-120M board. Modbus adapters should
be addressed 13 – 99.

3.2.7.1 Normal MRS-485 Operation
The MRS-485 will monitor the 4-20 mA current output of the detector. At power up and during its warm-up period, the 6-Series
detector will communicate its sensor type over the 4-20 current output using a custom protocol. The MRS-485 will automatically
register each 6-Series detector as it is programmed with information about all the detectors to which it can be connected. The
MRS-485 will use this information to determine the gas level sensed by the 6-Series detector by measuring the 4-20 mA currentloop output during normal operation of the detector.
•When the LED is solid GREEN, the operation is normal, the MRS-485 knows the detector type, no errors are detected,
and no MODBUS data are being received or transmitted over the RS-485 line.
•When the LED is GREEN with random bursts of AMBER, the operation is normal and now data are being received or
transmitted over the RS-485 line. The AMBER LED will come on anytime that there is data traffic
NOTE: After complete system installation, verify all sensors (verify sensor address and sensor type) connected to the panel are
detected by the panel and there is not any trouble indication for any of the connected detector. Refer to Section 4.9.3 to scroll
through all sensors detected by the panel.

If the user has not entered any parameters, the system WILL NOT be controlling the ventilation system. The relays WILL NOT
actuate, and the horn and strobe outputs WILL NOT be powered. The power status light will show NORMAL (steady green) and
the system will immediately enter the CONFIGURATION mode, see section 3.2 for details to set the configuration parameters.
If a valid set of configuration parameters have been entered, the panel will wait for all sensors to warm up. During this time, the
display will show a count-down, minutes and seconds, until the end of the warm-up period, (Figure 3-2).
Figure 4-2 Warm-Up display
During the warm-up period, the keypad will be locked. When the warm-up period ends, the LCD will start showing the normal
display.
4.2.1 Status Light Display
The POWER, ALARM/WARNING, SILENCE, RELAY 1, RELAY 2 and RELAY 3 status lights indicate the system status and provide the

The overall system status is visible at a distance via the status lights as described above. More detailed system information is
displayed on the LCD, which can show the status of each relay and sensor. A typical status display is shown in Figure 3-4.
4.3 User Interface
The LCD display is used to show detailed information about the status of the control system and the configuration parameters
to the user. The keypad is used to select the information displayed and to enter the configuration parameters, which are stored
in the DVP-120M memory. The keypad consists of the usual ten-digit keys, four direction keys, plus a MENU key that is used to
access the configuration menu and a HUSH key that will silence the audible alarm indicators. In normal mode, holding the zero
key for three (3) seconds can be used to lock the keypad against accidental (or unauthorized) use. See Section 4.5 for details.
Figure 4-3 Keypad layout
4.3.1 Cursor Keys
In normal mode, (no warnings or alarms indicated), the up and down cursor keys will scroll the display to any configured
sensors’ status. In normal mode, the left and right cursor keys will scroll through the status of each of the relays. When the left
(or right) key is used to scroll to another relay, the display will remove the underlining under the sensor number and underline
the relay number; this indicates that the digit keys can be used to jump directly to a particular relay’s status. When the up or
down key is again used the display will switch back to the digit keys jumping to a particular sensor.
4.3.2 MENU Key
The MENU key has three functions. First, when the system is presenting the normal display, pressing the MENU key will cause
the system to shift to the Configuration Menu. The second function of the MENU key is to return to the next-higher menu level,
e.g. from the sensor configuration menu to the system menu, or from the system menu out to normal mode. If in the middle of

entering a multi-digit parameter, the MENU key also cancels any changes to the parameter. When the MENU key is used to
return to normal mode, any changed configuration parameters are saved in the DVP-120’s memory. The third function of the
MENU key is to change the LCD contrast by holding the MENU key for five (5) seconds, at which point the LCD will prompt for
further activities, see sections 4.4 for more detail.
4.3.3 Hush Key
The HUSH key is only used to silence the audible indicators (internal buzzer and possible external Horn and Strobe devices).
Pressing and releasing the button will silence the internal buzzer. The HUSH button must be held for 3 seconds to silence the
Horn and Strobe devices.
4.4 Normal Status Display
Figure 4-4 Normal System Display
The display shows the day of the week and the time of day, in 24-hour format. It also shows the status of one of the relays, R1 in
this example, and the type and indicated gas concentration of one of the configured sensors, S01 is a CO sensor indicating 5ppm
in this example.
Notice in Figure 3-4 that the digits 0 1 are underlined; this indicates that the digit keys can be used to jump directly to another
sensor’s status. When the first digit is pressed, the display will prompt for the second digit of the target sensor.
Figure 4-5 Sensor Prompt
In this example, the first digit entered was 1. Since the DVP-120 can handle 12 sensors, the first digit for a sensor number is
either 0 or 1. The leading zero must be entered when selecting a sensor less than ten. When the second digit is entered, the
normal display will be restored; showing the type and value for the selected sensor.
As mentioned above, the left and right scroll keys will display the next or previous relay’s status. The display will also change the
underline to indicate that the digit keys (zero, one and two) can be used to jump directly to a particular relay. Since only one
digit is needed to select a relay, the system does it immediately rather than prompting to show the relay.
If the sensor is indicating a gas level that is greater than the alarm or warning levels, the gas reading will alternate with the
words ALARM or WARNING as appropriate. If a sensor fails, a connection is lost or the panel itself detects a failure of its own,
the panel will enter TROUBLE mode and the gas reading will be replaced by the word TROUBLE (the TROUBLE status condition is
discussed in section 3.1.6 below).

channel number.
Figure 4-6 Alarm Display
The display will cycle through all sensors that are signaling alarm levels, at five seconds per display. Pressing any key (except
HUSH) will advance the display to the next sensor that is signaling an alarm level.
If an external horn and/or strobe are connected and configured to signal an alarm condition, they will also sound when an alarm
condition occurs, after a delay if that configuration option is used.
When the HUSH key is pressed, the internal buzzer will be silenced for five (5) minutes. If the horn or strobe turn on delays have
not finished, then they will also be silenced. If the delays have finished the HUSH key must be held for three (3) seconds in order
to silence the horn and strobe.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that alarms have been silenced for five minutes. After any key is
pressed (or five seconds), the display will return to normal mode.

If Relay 1 is configured as an ALARM relay, it will be turned on when an alarm condition is recognized and will be turned off
when all audio indicators have been silenced using the HUSH key.
4.6 Warning Status Display
When any sensor indicates a gas level that is at or above the configured warning level for the sensor, the panel will enter
WARNING mode during which the internal buzzer will sound, the alarm/warning lamp will be amber and the LCD will show the

If the buzzer and/or an external horn and/or external strobe are connected and configured to signal a warning condition, they
will also sound when a warning condition occurs. There is a configurable delay before the horn or strobe will sound, see sections
4.9.5.2 and 4.9.6.2.
When the HUSH key is pressed, the internal buzzer will be silenced for fifteen (15) minutes. If the horn or strobe turn on delays
have not finished, then they will also be silenced. If the delays have finished, the HUSH key must be held for three (3) seconds in
order to silence the horn and strobe.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that warnings have been silenced for fifteen minutes. After any
key is pressed (or five seconds) the display will return to normal mode.

4.7 Trouble Status Display
If a sensor fails, a connection is lost or the panel itself detects a failure of its own, the panel will enter TROUBLE mode during
which the internal buzzer will sound, the power lamp will be yellow and the LCD will display the specific sensor identified.
Possible trouble conditions are:
• Any configured channel has less than 4 mA flowing in the current loop
• A sensor is reporting a trouble condition
• Any configured channel wiring is open.
• Internal controller board problems are detected.
Figure 4-10 Trouble Display
The display will cycle through all trouble indications, at five seconds per display. Pressing any key (except HUSH) will advance
the display to the next trouble indicator.
If an external horn and/or strobe are connected and configured to signal a trouble condition, they will also sound when a
trouble condition occurs, after a delay, if that configuration option is selected.
When the HUSH key is pressed, the internal buzzer will be silenced for eight (8) hours. If the horn or strobe turn on delays have
not finished, then they will also be silenced. If the delays have finished, the HUSH key must be held for three (3) seconds in

4.8 Ventilation Control
The ventilation control function operates independently from the alarm function. It provides the ability to configure the DVP120M for control of one to three zones. Each zone can respond to gas levels indicated by one or more of the sensors, with
configurable turn on and turn off concentrations (rising and falling) for each gas type. Each zone can also be controlled based on
the time of day.
Each zone can be configured to control one, two or all three of the relays and the external horn and strobe if desired. When
more than one zone is controlling a relay it only takes one zone to activate the relay, but all controlling zones must release the
relay before it will turn off.
Each of the relays, horn and strobe has independent turn on delays (to ignore short duration, transient gas signals) and turn off
delays (to ensure minimum run times for fans that must run for internal cooling).
4.8.1 Zone Signal Display
When a zone is controlling the horn or strobe and they are activated, the panel will enter ZONE SIGNAL mode during which the
horn and/or strobe will be turned on and the LCD will show the zone that is signaling.
Figure 4-12 Zone signal Display
The display will cycle through all zones that are controlling the horn or strobe and are signaling, at five seconds per display.
Pressing any key (except HUSH) will advance the display to the next zone that is signaling.
When the HUSH key is held for three (3) seconds, the horn and/or strobe will be silenced for fifteen (15) minutes. When
silenced, the display will show that zone signals have been silenced for fifteen minutes. After any key is pressed (or five seconds)
the display will return to normal mode.

4.9 System Configuration
The configuration menus can be entered from normal mode by pressing the MENU key. While in configuration mode, the user
can review all configuration parameters to check the current operating conditions. As an aid when configuring the control panel,
the first entry in the top menu summarizes the number of sensors and relays that the panel is currently recognizing. Be sure that
the 4-20mA output on each sensor is set to “On”.

Figure 4-14 Hardware Summary
The MENU key is also used to return to a higher-level menu and finally exit the configuration menus back to normal mode.
When exiting from the menu system to normal mode, if any configuration changes have been made, the panel will ask whether
changes are to be saved.
Figure 4-15 Save Configuration Prompt
Pressing the zero (0) key at this point will cancel all changes except time and day of week. Pressing the one (1) will save all
changes to memory, and the changes will then become effective in controlling the ventilation system.
While the DVP-120M is in the configuration mode, alarm and ventilation control functions continue in the background with the
previously set configuration values. In particular, if an alarm condition is detected, the alarm lamp, the buzzer, the horn and the
strobe will operate as configured but the LCD will not display the detailed information. The HUSH key can be used to silence any
alarm, warning or trouble indicators without having to exit the configuration mode. If the MENU key is used to exit the
configuration mode before using the HUSH key, the LCD will display the cause of the audible indicator.
The numeric keys are used to change the particular parameter displayed. The underlined character, or space, on each display
indicates what will be changed by the digit keys.
The left and right cursor keys will enter the particular submenu and scroll through the items of the same type where
appropriate, e.g. enter the Configure Sensors submenu and scroll through the parameter lists for the existing sensors.
The up cursor key scrolls through the menu entries in the order listed here, while the down cursor key scrolls in the reverse
order. Changing the configuration parameters requires the entry of a password before changes can be made. The default
password is 1234. See Figure 4-40 Enter Password for an example of the password prompt.
In many cases the parameter is entered as a string of digits, but some parameters are selected by pressing a single key, e.g.
pressing 1 selects Monday, 2 selects Tuesday, etc.

This menu option is useful for troubleshooting. Normally all sensors register automatically. This shows how many detectors the
panel can discover and how many of them are enabled. You can enable or disable any specific detector address entering this
menu. If any of the detector address is disabled, then the panel will not attempt communication with the corresponding
detector.
Figure 4-26
This menu shows how many detectors have been registered. In this example, the display example shows that panel has
discovered 6 detectors out of maximum possibility of 99. This means 93 more detectors can be connected to the panel.
4.9.2.2 Configure Sensor Type
Sensor Registration
Sensor registration is continuously monitored by the DVP-120M. When the currently selected sensor type agrees with the
stored registration information the DVP-120M will remain in normal mode. When new registration information is detected by
the DVP-120M, for example if a different gas type of Macurco sensor was installed, the following message is displayed:
“Configuration Changed Any key to save” is displayed.

Pressing any key will prompt user to enter the password. Once the valid password is entered the new sensor type is saved. The
program does not allow any other activity unless valid password is entered.
If the DVP-120M is in configuration mode (user is changing the configuration) the registration information is saved in the
background and the message indicating that configuration was changed is delayed until user goes back to normal mode.
Custom Sensor Implementation
Custom sensor types or “wildcards” can be configured with the DVP-120. There are 8 Macurco sensor types and 21 custom
sensor types available. Though the Macurco sensor data cannot be changed, custom sensor parameters can be configured to
define the sensor type:

4.9.4 Configure Relays, Horn & Strobe Submenu
There is a list of parameters for each relay in the system. The left and right cursor keys can be used to move from one relay,
horn or strobe to another and the up and down keys will scroll through the parameters for the particular relay, horn or strobe.
4.9.4.1 Relay Mode
Figure 4-48 Relay Mode
This display example shows that relay 1 is configured to operate in the Normally Off mode. The relay modes are:
• 1 ALARM
• 2 Normally Off (default)
• 3 Normally On
Relay mode 1 is a special case. This mode is only available on relay 1 and dedicates the relay to function as an alarm signal to a
subsequent alarm or monitoring panel. This mode forces the relay to Normally Off mode with no turn on delay or minimum on
time. See Section 3.1.4 for more detail regarding alarms
Fail Safe operation can be implemented by configuring a relay to operate Normally On, and wiring the circuit using the NC
(normally closed) contact. In this way, if the control panel loses power the relay will turn on the controlled device if it still has
power.
4.9.4.2 Relay Turn on Delay
Figure 4-49 Turn on Delay
The default turn on delay is one minute and the maximum allowed value is fifteen minutes. The value is entered in two groups,
2 digits for the minutes and then 2 digits for the seconds. A leading zero must be entered for each group if applicable.
4.9.4.3 Relay Minimum on Time

This display example shows that the horn has been configured to operate with a turn on delay and no minimum on time.
Notice that the horn number, 4, is underlined. This indicates that the digit keys can be used to jump to a particular relay, horn or
strobe. The relays are numbers 1, 2 and 3; the horn is number 4 and the strobe is 5.
4.9.5.2 Horn Turn on Delay

The Default minimum on time is zero and the maximum allowed value is fifteen minutes.
4.9.6 Configure Strobe Submenu
The configuration parameters for the strobe are the same as those for relays. A strobe would not normally require a minimum
on time, but this parameter allows a more versatile configuration.

The default minimum on time is zero and the maximum allowed value is fifteen minutes.
4.9.7 Configure Zones Submenu
The DVP-120 ventilation control can support up to three zones. The zone functionality makes the DVP-120 very flexible. For
example, each zone can be configured to monitor a separate set of four sensors and control a single relay.
Another control scheme uses one zone to monitor all sensors and turn one relay on at a relatively low gas concentration. A
second zone monitors the same sensors and turns on a second relay if the gas concentration reaches a higher level. The third
zone can also monitor the same relays turning the last relay on as a signaling device to a live monitor station, as well as turning
on the external horn and strobe, under the assumption that the ventilation system is not working.
In addition to controlling the relays based on the gas concentration, each zone can have a timed function, e.g. turn on low
volume ventilation fans at 7:00 AM and turn them off at 8:00 PM.
The default Ventilation Controls are:
• Zone 1 controls Relay 1
• Zone 2 controls Relay 2
• Zone 3 controls Relay 3
4.9.7.1 Zone Controls
Figure 4-57 Zone Controls
This display example shows that Zone 1 is configured to control all of the relays plus the horn and the strobe. Each of the relays,
the horn and the strobe can be removed from (or added to) the zones control by pressing the indicated digit key. By default,
Zone 1 will control Relay 1, Zone 2 will control Relay 2 and Zone 3 will control Relay 3.
• Group – Set of Sensors of same type and output within the same zone.

• 3 - Relay 3 added/removed from the zone’s control
• 4 - Horn added/removed from the zone’s control
• 5 - Strobe added/removed from the zone’s control
When controlled by a zone the default horn pattern is continuous, see 3.3.8.7 and the strobe will turn on continuously when a
zone is controlling them.
Each zone can have up to three control groups defined. Each group either monitors a sensor type or implements a timer
function.

4.9.7.9 Multiple Sensor Mode
Figure 4-66 Sensor Mode Selection
When multiple sensors are being monitored by a group, the output decision can be based on either voting, as shown here, or
the average of all sensors in the group. Valid modes are:
• 1 Average
• 2 Voting (default)
When the configuration is Average, the gas concentrations from all sensors in the group are averaged and if the average is
greater than or equal to the rising trip point the zone outputs(s) are activated. When the average is less than or equal to the
falling trip point the zone output(s) are de-activated. If the average is between the two trip points, the outputs remain in their
previous state.
When the configuration is Voting, the number of sensors in the group indicating a value greater than or equal to the rising trip
point is counted. If the count is greater than or equal to the quorum then the zone output(s) are activated. If the count of
sensors indicating less than or equal to the falling trip point is greater than or equal to the quorum the zone output(s) are deactivated. Activating the output(s) is given priority if a group has an equal number of sensors with gas readings greater than or
equal to the rising trip point and sensors with readings less than or equal to the falling trip point.
4.9.7.10 Multiple Sensor Quorum
Figure 4-67 Quorum Entry
It is up to the installer to ensure that the quorum entry is appropriate for the configuration. Valid entries are one to twelve, but
a value greater than the number of sensors being monitored by the group, stops the group from controlling the outputs. The
default quorum value is 1.
4.9.8 Configure Signals Submenu
The DVP-120M can drive the buzzer, horn and strobe with different sound patterns to indicate the severity of the current
conditions. These patterns are selectable by the installer using this group of submenus. Once again, the left and right keys will
scroll through the signal types and the up and down keys will scroll to the signal sources.
4.9.8.1 Alarm Signal Summary
The alarm signals are in response to one or more sensors indicating gas levels at or above the sensors’ configured alarm level.
This display example shows that alarms are signaled by the internal buzzer, the external horn and the strobe.

WARNING
Do not disassemble unit or attempt to repair or modify any component of this instrument. This
affect product performance and void product warranty.
5 Troubleshooting
The DVP-120M is tested at the factory for reliable operation. Most problems can be traced to the set-up of configurable
features and modes, system wiring or trouble with the sensors.
instrument contains no user serviceable parts, and substitution of components may adversely
5.1 System Status Light
The system status light (section 3 Operation) is normally green indicating power is present but will change to yellow whenever
the controlling firmware detects a Trouble condition. Possible trouble conditions are:
• Any configured channel has less than 4 mA flowing in the current loop
• A sensor is reporting a trouble condition
• Any configured channel wiring is open.
• Internal controller board problems are detected.
5.1.1 Input Channel Trouble
Any time the POWER light is yellow, the first thing the technician should consider is that one of the input channels is in trouble.
Reviewing the Sensor Status displays (using the up and down keys), should reveal which channel has a problem since the gas
reading will be replaced with the word TROUBLE. Be sure that the 4-20mA output on each sensor is set to “On”.
5.1.1.1 No Sensor
A common source of a trouble condition is an input channel that is configured for a sensor that does not exist. In this case, the
system expects to see current flowing within the current loop, but there cannot be current if there is no sensor connected.
Either fix the miss-wired sensor, or change the sensor type to NONE, section 3.3.3.2. After returning to normal mode (using the
MENU key), the power light should return to steady green. Be sure that the 4-20mA output on each sensor is set to “On”.
5.1.1.2 Wrong Sensor Type
If all channels are configured properly, another source a trouble condition could be the type of sensor attached to an input
channel. Macurco™ Toxic sensors can indicate high gas concentrations with signals of up to 24 mA in the current loop. However,
a combustible sensor can indicate a trouble condition with a 21-mA signal. Therefore, a toxic sensor connected to channel which
is configured for a combustible sensor can cause a fault indication if the gas concentration is high enough.
5.1.1.3 Sensor Trouble
All Macurco™ Sensors are either supplied with a STATUS lamp that will indicate the health of the device or will display a trouble
condition on the digital display. Macurco sensors may be tested by depressing the TEST button on the sensor printed circuit
board, or (depending on the type of sensor), the button on the interior front panel of the unit. Macurco sensors will step the
output current level from 4 mA to 20 mA over the course of the warm-up period, allowing the technician to determine where
the trouble condition exists. If the sensor is still in a trouble condition, resetting the power may clear the trouble condition.
Remove one of the power wires from the sensor terminal strip causing the sensor to go through a power-up reboot. Be sure
that the 4-20mA output on each sensor is set to “On”.
5.1.1.4 Faulty Wiring
Finally, the wiring between the DVP-120M and the sensor should be investigated. The power input to the sensor should be
investigated at the sensor. Since Macurco sensors are rated for operation between 12 and 24 VDC or VAC, the voltage drop
between the DVP-120M and the sensor should not be an issue if the wiring guidelines in Table 2-2 are followed. A multi-meter
can be inserted to check the current flow within the loop, or a continuity test can be performed on all four wires between the
REV – 2.2.1 [34-8708-4770-6 ] 48 | Page

WARNING
High voltage terminals (120/240 VAC) are located within the DVP-120C, presenting a hazard to
internal circuits. Ensure power is removed from the DVP-120C prior to servicing the unit.
WARNING
DVP-120M may not function effectively below 32°F (0°C) or above 120°F (49°C). Using the
equipment outside of this temperature range may adversely affect product.
DVP-120M and the sensor. Ensure power is removed from the DVP-120M prior to removing the input or output connectors
from the DVP-120M controller board. Be sure that the 4-20mA output on each sensor is set to “On”.
5.1.1.5 Resettable Fuse
Each sensor channel is provided with a PTC-resettable fuse internal to the DVP-120M to protect against over current situations.
To reset a sensor channel, power should be removed from the channel. This can be accomplished by removing power from the
sensor – causing the loop current to go to zero, or by completely removing power from the DVP-120M.
5.1.2 Internal Controller board Trouble
If the sensor status display and investigative efforts reveal no problems with the input channel current loops and channel
configuration, the most likely trouble condition is an internal problem detected by the DVP-120M controller. In this case,
contact the Macurco Technical Service for advice and help.
5.2 Timed Ventilation Problem
When using the timed ventilation mode, the system clock should be checked regularly (at least twice a year). The battery
backed real time clock in the DVP-120M does not adjust for daylight saving time so the spring and fall switch over points are
good choices to check the system clock.
service technicians. Only qualified technicians should open the DVP-120C case and service the
5.3 No Power
The DVP-120M starts up as soon as power is applied to the microcontroller, and the DVP-120M is designed to have power
continuously applied to the unit. An external indication of successful power application to the unit is the immediate operation of
the Status Lamps grouped around the LCD. If the operator does not see immediate response from the status lamps, power
should be checked at AC~
If the correct voltage is noted at AC~, then the internal fuse of the DVP-120M should be investigated. The DVP-120M is
protected from over-current and transient situations by the fuse at F3. AFTER removing power from the DVP-120M, F3 can be
checked by removing the safety cover. If necessary, replace F3 with a 5x20 mm SLO-BLO fuse with a rating of 1 Amp 250V, e.g.
Littelfuse P/N 218001. Be sure to REPLACE THE SAFETY COVER on F3 before re-applying power to the DVP-120M.
5.4 LCD Display Unreadable
It is possible that the LCD is unreadable due to temperature or aging of the control panel. If this is the case the following steps
should rectify the problem:
•Hold the MENU key for three (3) seconds. After three seconds, the power led will turn red. After two additional
seconds, the LCD backlight will also be turned off.
•Press the UP and DOWN cursor keys to change the LCD contrast. Each press of the UP or DOWN cursor key will change
the contrast by a step in that direction. Adjust the contrast for best viewing.
•Press any other key to exit the contrast-setting mode.

5.5 Keypad does not respond
5.5.1 LCD shows KEYS LOCKED
The keypad can be unlocked by holding the zero (0) key for 3 seconds. At this time the backlight will turn on and the display will
return to normal mode. The keypad can again be locked by holding the zero key for 3 seconds, until the display shows KEYS
LOCKED.
5.5.2 After silencing Alarm, Warning or Trouble
LCD continues to show the alarm, warning or trouble message.
It is possible that the horn or strobe have been configured to respond in alarm, warning or trouble conditions, even though
there is no horn or strobe connected (or perhaps they are used for some purpose that is not audible or visible). First, hold the
HUSH key for five seconds, or until the display changes to “ALARM silenced for 5 minutes” or other relevant message. Second,
use the configuration menu to disable the horn or strobe, if they are not being used for some other purpose.
5.6 Power Failure
After any power failure, the user should check the system clock. While system parameters are maintained in memory, the
system clock is backed-up by a limited-capacity button cell battery.
5.7 MRS-485 Modbus Application
The MRS-485 will monitor the 4-20 mA current output of the detector. At power up and during its warm-up period, the 6-Series
detector will communicate its sensor type over the 4-20 current output using a custom protocol. The MRS-485 will automatically
register each 6-Series detector as it is programmed with information about all the detectors to which it can be connected. The
MRS-485 will use this information to determine the gas level sensed by the 6-Series detector by measuring the 4-20 mA currentloop output during normal operation of the detector.
5.7.1 Normal Operation
1. When the LED is solid GREEN, operation is normal, the MRS-485 knows the detector type, no errors are detected, and
no MODBUS data are being received or transmitted over the RS-485 line.
2. When the LED is GREEN with random bursts of AMBER, operation is normal and now data are being received or
transmitted over the RS-485 line. The AMBER LED will come on anytime that there is data traffic.
5.7.2 Unknown Sensor Code
GREEN/OFF Alternating every 500 milliseconds - The MRS-485 doesn’t know the detector type, no MODBUS communications is
in progress and no errors are detected.
To correct this condition:
1. Disconnect the power line from the MRS-485.
2. Disconnect the MODBUS line from the MRS-485.
3. Re-connect the Modbus Line to the MRS-485.
4. Re-connect the power line to the MRS-485.
5.7.3 Error Codes
Solid RED - The MRS-485 detected an error and no MODBUS communications are in progress.
RED with random bursts of AMBER - The MRS-485 detected an error and AMBER is displayed when data are received or
transmitted over the RS-485 line.

8 Appendix B – Quick Setup
IMPORTANT: To properly and effectively program the system you must configure the Sensors, Relays, Zones, and Signals. If the
user has not entered any parameters, the system WILL NOT be monitoring the sensors or controlling the ventilation system. The
relays will be in the not actuated state and the horn and strobe outputs will be off. Be sure that the 4-20mA output on each
sensor is set to “On”.
1. Configure System allows the installer to set the time of day, the day of the week, load the default configuration,
configure custom sensors and change the password.
2. Configure Sensors defines the Sensor type – CO, NO
Alarm Level, Warning Level, and Sensor Range.
3. Configure Relays, Horn and Strobe defines operation as Normally Off or On, Delay Time, Minimum Runtime – this
applies to all three relays as well as the horn and strobe.
Note: The Delay Time default is 1 minute. If the duration of a test procedure or gas exposure is less than 1 minute, the
relays, horns, and strobes may not engage even though the DVP-120M display and the sensors respond. When testing the
system disable the delay (set Delay Time to zero minutes/seconds).
4. Configure Zones defines Sensor Input & Relay/Alarm Output and sets up the sensor Groups (set of sensors of the same
type and output within the same zone) - Sensor type, Sensor Number, Rising Trip point and Falling Trip point
5. Configure Signals defines the output of the Alarm, Warning and Trouble Signals (Buzzer, Horn and Strobe) as On, Off,
Intermittent, Continuous, etc.

→ Configure Group 2 - repeat for up to three groups
When multiple sensors are being monitored as a Group, the DVP-120 output can be based on either sensor Voting (default) or
the Average of all sensor readings in the Group.
When the configuration is Average, the gas concentrations from all sensors in the Group are averaged.
• If the average is greater than or equal to the rising trip point, the zone outputs are activated.
• If the average is less than or equal to the falling trip point, the zone output(s) is de-activated.
• If the average is between the two trip points, the outputs remain in their previous state.
When the configuration is Voting, the number of sensors in the Group indicating a value greater than or equal to the rising trip
point is counted.
• If the count is greater than or equal to the Quorum (the minimum number of sensors votes in a Group needed)
then the zone output(s) are activated.

• If the count of sensors indicating less than or equal to the falling trip point is greater than or equal to the Quorum
the zone output(s) is de-activated.
• If a group has an equal number of sensors with gas readings greater than or equal the rising trip point and sensors
with readings less than or equal to the falling trip point, activating the output(s) is given priority.
It is up to the installer to ensure that the Quorum entry is appropriate for the configuration. Valid entries are from one to
twelve, but a value greater than the number of sensors being monitored by the group stops the group from controlling the
outputs. The default Quorum value is 1; in this case, only 1 sensor vote is needed to control the output.

The table below lists replaceable parts for the DVP Control Panels, parts not listed such as the keypad can only be replaced at
the factory.
CAUTION: Certification on all DVP Panels is based on testing of the complete assembly. Replacing any part in the DVP Assembly
voids the certification and user must remove the ETL label applied on the panel.
*Replacement Lock/Key is for DVP-120, DVP-120M, DVP-120B, and DVP-120C. Lock assembly on the DVP-1200 is part of the
