IDR-2P, -2A & -6A Repeaters User Manual
3.2 Powering the Repeater
3.3 Passive Repeaters
17
The IDR repeater obtains 18-32V and 0V dc
supplies either from the fire control panel
auxiliary outputs or, depending upon the IDR
repeater's location, from a local independent
power supply. Connections are made as
described in Section 2.8.1.
It is important to follow the procedure
below when powering-up/down the IDR
repeaters for maintenance and system
upgrades, NOT just when commissioning
the IDR repeater.
To power-up the IDR repeater:
1 Power-up the fire control panel and power-
up any IDR repeaters that use a local
independent supply.
2 Check that the LCD shows the System
Status Normal display (on IDR-6A repeater
a list of available languages is displayed
first; use the repeater's pushbuttons to
select [see Section 4.5.3.1]). You may need
to adjust the contrast (see Section 4).
To power-down the IDR repeater, power down
the fire control panel (including battery
disconnection), then power down any IDR
repeaters that use local independent supplies.
The repeater CAN be powered down first, but
the panel will then report a fault.
Additional information for passive repeaters
only:
You can access test, language and the edit
NORMAL message menu options that
normally require access level 2 (i.e. the
keyswitch on the active repeater set
accordingly) by placing a link (A) across the
keyswitch connector on the Control Board. This
facility is provided only for use by the installer/
commissioner. Remember to remove the link
when you have finished!
