INSTALLING THE REMOTE HAZARD UNIT
(RHU)
1. Install each RHU using the following steps:
a. Make all conduit connections into the RHU enclo-
sure.
b. Pull all system wiring through the installed conduit
into the enclosure.
c. Mount the RHU Power Supply and PCB/Display
Assembly into the enclosure.
d. Connect AC supply to RHU as described in Para-
graph 7-3.2.3. Close circuit breaker to supply AC
power. The only troubles should be a "Un-regis-
tered" trouble and a battery fault.
e. If any other troubles are shown by the RHU, power
it down and make any alterations to the Device
hardware to remove any trouble/alarm events (e.g.,
fit any missing End-of-Line (EOL) Resistors).
f.
Open AC circuit breaker (i.e., power down the
RHU).
g. Verify the integrity of the field wiring. Check for
grounds, shorts, opens, polarity and voltages.
h. Complete all required system wiring connections
(except for the Release Circuits and Data Com-
munications) to screw terminals on the printed cir-
cuit board using Paragraph 7-3.3 and the system
installation drawings prepared by the supplier for
the specific installation.

Close circuit breaker to supply AC power.
j.
Check that the newly connected field devices ap-
pear to be functioning. No new troubles should be
indicated by the RHU.
2. Establish RS-485 Data Communication between the
RHU and the MCP by performing the following steps:
a. Open the MCP and RHU AC circuit breakers (i.e.,
power down both units).
b. Set the network address of the RHU (see Appen-
dix E for details) with the 3-position dip switch la-
beled SW2 (see Appendix E for the location of
SW2). Note that while each RHU must be assigned
a unique network address, an RHU and an RDU
may have the same address number.
c. Connect the RS-485 Data Communication wiring
between the RHU and the MCP as described in
Paragraph 7-3.3.5. it is recommended that the
