7 Configuration

AMain Menu

To access the MAIN MENU, press the Enter key and enter the password. The MAIN MENU offers the following eight programming fields:

The cursor to the left of a field on the display indicates that this field is accessible. The arrows in the upper left and right corners indicate that a window is accessible at the left and right of the active window respectively. The keypad’s four arrows serve to move the pointer in the MAIN MENU, and the Enter key is used to access the selected field.

Tx INFO (Programming the Parameters of a Sensor)

Sensor parameters are programmed via several different windows. There is also an additional information window indicating sensor life available for some sensors.

•	Ident	•	Alarm A
•	Com	•	Alarm B
•	Detection	•	Alarm C
•	Display	•	Servicing

The upper right-hand corner of each window indicates the address of the first sensor. When the Tx INFO field is accessed, the pointer is located to the left of the sensor address, thus signifying that the address could be put into editing mode in order to access the parameters of another sensor. The sensor address is put into editing mode using the Enter key, and the address begins to flash when it is editable. The keypad’s Up and Down arrows are used to increment or decrement the address value. Once the correct value is obtained, the Enter key validates the address. The address then leaves the editing mode and stops flashing.

The following windows are accessible with the Left and Right arrows.

Ident (Identification of the Network Component)

1. Tx Info		001
EC-F9	-Ident-
NH3

The identification of the network component is comprised of two parameters: the sensor name and the sensor type. A pre-programmed list of sensors is available for both.

Com (Communication Protocol)

1. Tx Info	001
-COM-
Mdbs RTU 8D 2S NP
9600 bauds

Each sensor’s communication protocol is automatically established by the AirAlertTM96d controller. (See the Network section).

If a sensor is compatible with several protocols, it can be modified by the programmer in accordance with one of the following four choices.

1Vulbus

2Mdbs ASCII 7D 2S NP 9600 bauds

3Mdbs RTU 8D 2S NP 9600 bauds

4Mdbs RTU 1S EP 9600 bauds

Note: For MODBUS equipped sensors, the controller must be put into Vulbus mode to allow configuration. Once configuration is complete, return to MODBUS mode for normal operation. MODBUS sensors should be set at even parity, one bit-stop.

Detection (Definition of the Detection Range and Unit of Measurement)

	1. Tx Info	001

	-Detection-
scale: 0-100.0
unit : ppm

The DETECTION MENU does not appear for an AirAlertTM96d-RM8 relay module or AirAlertTM96d-AP annunciator panel.
