15 Operating the Engineer’s functions
15.1 Engineer’s Zone/Output Configuration Process:
● Various programmable configuration options associated with the zonal inputs and outputs
can be enabled/disabled by operating the appropriate DIL switch located within the panel
enclosure. These are:
○ Configure zones as delayed zones.
○ Configure zones for use with I.S. barriers/isolators.
○ Configure zones as latching/non-latching fire indication.
○ Configure zones to short circuit fire mode.
○ Configure outputs to be delayed.
Note: Configure Machinery Space Zones feature is not used on the standard Mx-1000 Series
panels.
15.2 Zone or Output Configuration
● 1. Select a programmable configuration mode:
○ Enable the controls on the display, by turning the Access key-switch on the panel
display to the “1” position.
○ If the panel is in the fire alarm condition, silence the alarms and reset.
○ Open the panel door and locate the appropriate DIL switch on the motherboard [Config
Non-latch Zones; Config I.S. Zones; Config Delay Zones; Config Delay O/Ps] and
move the switch actuator to the ON position.
The CONFIG ENABLED LED on the motherboard will illuminate.
The Panel’s System Fault LED will flash and the buzzer will operate.
The Select LED on the front of the display will pulse.
Any standing fire or fault alarm indications and associated outputs will be inhibited.
If active, the indications for evacuation, silence buzzer, delay on or disablement
indications will clear.
The panel will indicate the current status of the selected programmable
configuration mode on the yellow fault/disabled LEDs on the Zones, Sounders, Fire
Routing and Fire Protection outputs.
A steady indication denotes that the zone/output is already configured to the selected
mode.
No indication denotes that the zone/output has not been configured to the selected
mode.
○ Close the panel door to allow access to the buttons on the display.
● 2. Select a zone or output to be configured:
○ On the panel display, press the Select On/Off switch to enable the Select Mode.
The Select LED will become steady and the panel buzzer will silence.
A pulsing indication [cursor] will appear either on the Zone 1 Fault/Disabled LED or
the Sounder Fault/Disabled LED/Test depending upon which configuration DIL
switch is selected.
○ Use the Select ↑ and Select↓ buttons to scroll the cursor indication through the
selectable options:
For zonal configuration, through all zones sequentially in forward [Select↓] or
reverse [Select ↑] sequence starting at zone 1.
