    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-E: ALARM VERIFICATION Alarm verification provides MPC-6000/MPC-7000/RND-2 with a way to verify an alarm from area type addressable smoke detectors connected to intelligent loops (FDLC). This feature reduces the incidence of false alarms. Only detectors that do not contain an integral alarm verification feature can be used.

  • Page 79: Appendix-F: Application Specific Detection

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-F: APPLICATION SPECIFIC DETECTION Application Specific Detection (ASD) allows the system designer to program an 8713 detector’s sensitivity, pre-alarm threshold, and other alarm-related parameters using English descriptions of the detector's environment (application). This eliminates the need for detailed knowledge of smoke detector terminology and operation.

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-G: TESTING/MAINTENANCE If the system is connected to the fire department, etc., or actuates an internal system, disarm the appropriate outputs before servicing to prevent actuation. Notify the fire department and personnel at your facility that a System test is being performed so that any alarm sounding can be ignored during the test.

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL The sounder operates as follows: SOUNDER Normally OFF – indicates that the system is in supervisory mode or all events in the system have been acknowledged. ON (steady) – indicates that at least ONE unacknowledged alarm is present in the system.
  • Page 83 MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL The events are displayed one at a time and cycle through a circular list once the first event or last event message is reached.

  • Page 84: Appendix-I: Output Features

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-I: OUTPUT FEATURES Output ON- and OFF- Time Delays Each output device has a selection for ON time delay and OFF time delay when it is installed in the configuration. The ON time delay refers to the delay in which the output will activate after the reception of its activation command.
  • Page 85 MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL The initiation of fan restart usage device during stand-by will annunciate a supervisory event that clears as soon as the input device reverts back to its stand-by state.

  • Page 86: Appendix-J: Pas/Pre-Signal

    (typically a non-audible device) and starts a delay timer. When the delay timer elapses, the timeout group it is associated with is initiated and activates its audible outputs. The timeout group and delay timers are configurable. Refer to the MPC-6000/-7000/RND-2 Programming Manual, P/N 315-049403FA, for procedures in programming these features.
  • Page 87 MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Pre-Signal When an alarm causing device in a Pre-Signal input group is initiated, the alarm condition is reported at the panel. Its timeout group outputs are not activated until the programmed investigation delay has elapsed regardless of annunciation of subsequent alarms and acknowledgement of alarms (see figure below).

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-K: DIAGNOSTIC LEDS The LEDs on the following boards are used for diagnostic purposes only. MPC6-MB / MPC6-MB2 DS3 – ON, indicates Low battery voltage or No battery detected. DS2 – ON, indicates High Battery voltage detected.

  • Page 89: Appendix-L: Dact Information Overview

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-L: DACT INFORMATION OVERVIEW The DACT (Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter) is an optional module for the MPC-6000, MPC-7000 and RND-2 control panels that allows transmission of event information to a remote receiver at a monitoring station using a dial-up modem connection.
  • Page 90 MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL To configure an event to be reported to Account 1 and Account 2, set it to Must report on both. If the event needs to be reported to either Account 1 or Account 2, set it to Can report on both.

  • Page 93: Appendix-M: Network Overview

    MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL APPENDIX-M: NETWORK OVERVIEW The purpose of this section is to provide a general understanding of the network portion of this system. Basic Networking Principles The MPC networking system allows up to 99 panels or nodes to be connected in a network.
  • Page 94 They may be programmed with either the configuration tool or the firmware. A maximum of 255 network links may be used. Refer to the MPC-6000/MPC-7000/RND-2 Programming Manual, P/N 315-049403FA, for a detailed description of network links. When using a DACT, network links must be programmed for input groups to report to the DACT.
  • Page 95 This option can only be configured in MPC-6000/-7000 networked panels. There are two programming options for Global Accept, “Yes” and “No”. • Setting this option to “Yes” allows a Networked panel (MPC-6000/-7000) to be silenced, acknowledged and reset from the RND-2.

    (typically longer than 24 hours). The printers are used strictly for diagnostic purposes only. MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 printer connection Diagnostic printers are connected to the MPC-6000/ -7000 panels through terminal TB4 of its main board using an RS232 DB25 serial cable (serial cable is not provided). See Figure 1 below.
  • Page 97 MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL MPC-6000/-7000 panels can also be connected to a computer running terminal emulation software using an RS232 DB9 serial cable. Terminal emulation software is a communication program that is designed to emulate various types of text terminals configured to be connected through a modem or directory over a serial port.
