Programming Overview

This section of the manual is intended to give you an overview of the programming process. Please read this section of the manual care-

fully, especially if you are programming the control panel for the first time.

The JumpStart Autoprogramming feature automates many programming tasks and selects default options for the system. You will run

JumpStart at least once when you are installing the system. See Section 8.1 for details. After you run JumpStart, you may need to do

some additional programming depending on your installation.

Programming the panel can be thought of as a three part process. You must program:

•

System options. These are options that affect general operation of the panel (see Section 9.6 for details).

•

Options for input points and zones. These are primarily options that control detection behavior of devices (see Section 9.5 for

details).

•

Options for output points and groups. This includes selecting characteristics for output groups and mapping output circuits to output

groups (see Section 9.5 for details).

8.1 JumpStart

AutoProgramming

The JumpStart feature allows for faster system setup. When you run JumpStart (immediately after addressing SLC devices), the system

scans devices on all SLC loops and determines device type (for example, ionization smoke detector or heat sensor) and selects some sys-

tem options based on the device type. This saves the installer from having to program options for each device. Depending on the applica-

tion, the installer may need to make some changes after JumpStart completes. See Section 8.1.3 for complete details about running

JumpStart.

8.1.1 Input Points

JumpStart

Autoprogramming will determine the number and type of input points (detectors or contact monitor modules) on each SLC

loop. JumpStart

Autoprogramming assigns the correct detector type (heat, ionization or photoelectric), so the installer does not need to

edit device type for detectors. Any contact monitor modules on the system will be assigned type "Manual Pull." The installer will need

to manually change the switch type if manual pull is not correct.

JumpStart

Autoprogramming creates one zone (Zone 1) and assigns all input points to Zone 1. Zone 1 is mapped to Output Group 1.

After JumpStart

completes, you can re-map to configure a multiple zone/output group system (see Section , "Zone Accessory

Options"). For a general explanation of mapping, see Section 8.2.

8.1.2 Output Points

JumpStart creates three output groups and assigns output circuits as follows:

Circuits 1-4:

Configured as Notification and assigned to Group 1. JumpStart automatically programs Zone 1 to activate Group 1 using constant on

output when an alarm condition occurs.

Circuit 5 (Relay 1):

Assigned to Group 249. JumpStart

condition occurs.

Circuit 6 (Relay 2):

Assigned to Group 250. JumpStart

occurs.

Addressable output points (Relay modules):

All addressable relay devices will be configured as "Output Pt" (general purpose output point) and assigned to Group 1.

NOTE: Relay output is constant even if the zone activating the relay is programmed with an output pattern.

8.1.3 Running JumpStart

Run JumpStart immediately after you have addressed and connected all input devices (detectors, pull stations, and so on) and output

devices (notification appliances, relays, and so on).

NOTE: If you need to install a few devices after you have run JumpStart, you can install them manually. Follow instructions in Section 9 for

configuration.

To run JumpStart, follow these steps.

Press ENTER to view the Main Menu.

From the Main Menu Select 7 for the Program Menu.

From the next menu, select 6 for JumpStart.

When the message, "SLC FAMILY" message appears, select SK or SD; depending on the type of SLC devices the panel is using,

and press ENTER to accept.

A series of messages displays for the next several seconds. JumpStart scans the SLC loops for devices. This can take several

minutes, depending on the number of devices attached.

When the message "Configuring System Done" displays, press any key to continue.

Select one of the following options from the menu that displays
