3.6.4 Loop Setup
Loop Setup allows the programmer to configure the SLC Loop(s) for NFPA Style 4, 6
or 7 wiring and to select the protocol for each loop. Pressing 1 while viewing
Programming Screen #2 will cause the following screen to be displayed:
1=LOOP 1
2=LOOP 2
Press 1 while viewing the Loop Selection Screen to configure Loop1 or 2 to configure
Loop 2. The following screens will appear for each loop.

1=STYLE

2=PROTOCOL
3.6.4.1 Style
To program the SLC Style for the selected loop, press 1 for Style, while viewing
Loop Setup Screen. In the preceding example, the control panel is programmed for
Style 4 SLC wiring as indicated by the 4 to the right of Style in the display. To
change the wiring style, press 1 to toggle the display to read Style 6. Each press of
the 1 key will cause the display to toggle between Style 4 and Style 6. Note that,
when programming the Loop Style, the programmer can only select between Style 4
and Style 6. To program a system for Style 7 wiring, the programmer must select the
Loop Setup for Style 6. Style 7 wiring is the same as Style 6 with the added
requirement that each addressable device on the loop must have a pair of isolator
modules, one on each side.

3.6.4.2 Loop Protocol

Loop Protocol refers to the SLC loop mode of operation. At the present time, the
only mode available is CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) which is used for the
older legacy addressable devices such as the M300 Series modules and detectors.
Note that the legacy devices can operate only in CLIP mode while the newer
devices are compatible with all modes. Pressing 2 while viewing the Loop Setup
Screen will have no effect on programming at this time.
Device Addressing
It is important to note that the MS-9600 addressable device capacity is 159 detectors
and 159 control/monitor modules per SLC loop. Since older legacy addressable
devices cannot be set to addresses above 099, the newer series devices must be used
when addresses 100 to 159 are to be installed. It is permissible to mix old and new
devices on the same loop.
