Section 7: Programming Overview; Jumpstart Auto-Programming; 1: Input Points; 2: Output Points - Honeywell 6820 Manual

This section of the manual is intended to give you an overview of the programming process. Please read this section of the manual carefully,
especially if you are programming the control panel for the first time.
The JumpStart Auto-programming feature automates many programming tasks and selects default options for the system. JumpStart should
be at least once when you are installing the system. See Section 7.1 for details. After you run JumpStart, you may need to do some additional
programming depending on your installation. Section 8 of this manual covers manual programmable options in detail.
Programming the panel can be thought of as a three part process. You must program:
• Network options. This affects how all panels in the network work together. (see Section 6 for details).
• System options. These are options that affect general operation of the panel. (see Section 8.6 for details).
• Options for input points and zones. These are primarily options that control the detection behavior of devices. (see Section 8.3 and
Section 8.5 for details).
• Options for output points and groups. This includes selecting characteristics for output groups and mapping output circuits to output
groups. (see Section 8.4 for details).

7.1 JumpStart Auto-Programming

The JumpStart Auto-Programming feature allows for faster system setup. When you run JumpStart AutoProgramming, the panel searches
for expanders and SLC devices not currently in the system. The new devices are added in their default configuration. At the end of the Jump-
Start you can choose to not accept the new devices and go back to the configuration you had before. JumpStart saves the installer from hav-
ing to program options for each device. Depending on the application, the installer may need to make some changes after JumpStart
completes.
See Section 7.1.3 for complete details about running JumpStart.
7.1.1 Input Points
The first JumpStart on the panel in default configuration will determine the number and type of input points (detectors or contact monitor
modules) on each SLC loop. JumpStart Auto-Programming assigns the correct detector type (heat, ionization or photoelectric), so the
installer does not need to edit the 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.
The first JumpStart AutoProgramming creates one zone (Zone 1) and assigns all input points to Zone 1. Zone 1 is mapped to Output
Group 1.
7.1.2 Output Points
The 6820 JumpStart creates three output groups. The 6820EVS with amplifiers will create four output groups. The output circuits are
assigned as follows:
Configured as Notification and assigned to Group 1.
Circuits 1-6
Circuit 7 (Relay 1)
Circuit 8 (Relay 2)
Amplifier Circuits
Addressable output points (Relay modules)
point) and assigned to Group 1.
NOTE: Relay output is constant even if the zone activating the relay is programmed with an output pattern.
7.1.3 Running JumpStart Auto-Programming
Run JumpStart Auto-Programming 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 or run JumpStart again at a later time.
JumpStart will keep user options, such as names, for devices already installed. Follow instructions in Section 7 for configuration.
To run JumpStart AutoProgramming, follow these steps.
1. Login to the panel and access the main menu.
2. Select 7 for Panel Programming.
3. Select 6 for JumpStart AutoProgramming.
4. The message "The system will be shut down during JumpStart." Press ENTER to accept.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. When the message "Configuring System Done" displays, press any key to continue.
