3. Programming
Overview
This section provides detailed instructions for programming the control panel. For your convenience, a
programming flowchart has been included at the end of this chapter (see "Screen Options Flowchart" on
page 55). It may be helpful to follow along with the flowchart as this section is reviewed.
The control panel is completely field programmable and requires no special software skills.
Programming may be accomplished in one of three ways:
• The Autoprogram Feature - this method is very convenient for quickly bringing the control panel
on-line or for program editing.
• Manual Programming or editing, using the control panel keypad.
• The Off-Line Programming Feature - this method allows creation of site-specific custom
programs using a Windows-based computer. For programs requiring a large amount of data
entry, this method may be preferred. You can order the VeriFire CD Medium System
Programming Utility for off-line programming.
When a programmed system is normal with no active alarms, troubles or supervisories, the 'SYSTEMS
ALL NORMAL' screen will be displayed as shown below.
To (1) program the system, (2) read system status, (3) print, (4) edit or (5) Walktest, the
ENTER
key must
first be pressed. After pressing the
ENTER
key, the following screen displays:
Pressing the
1
key will select system Programming, which may only be accomplished by an authorized
user. Before attempting to program the system the SW1 Write Protect switch, located on the lower-right
side of the main circuit board, must be placed in the down position. If the switch is in the up 'Write
Protect' position while attempting to enter the Programming Mode, the following message appears in
the LCD display:
To program the system (Program Level 1 and Program Level 2), you must first enter a valid password.
Once the correct password is entered, you can select Autoprogram or Program Edit. After programming
is completed, return switch SW1 to the Write Protect position.
