B426 module faults

With a B426 installed, several services become available to the control panel. Any break in the
Ethernet connection to a supervised B426 results in a system fault at the keypads indicating
Open Cable trouble.
If a Domain Name Server (DNS) is available on the network, a failure to resolve an individual
Network Address hostname results in a system fault at the keypads indicating DNS ERROR ##.
The error number represents the communication module and destination combination that
failed. Refer to RPS Help or the control panel's Program Entry Guide for details on
communication module/destination combinations. The keypad shows a failure to resolve the
domain name used for RPS Network Address.
If a B426 fails all communication with the DNS, a system fault indicating Network Module #
Address Error shows on all keypads and the control panel sends a trouble event to the central
stations, if enabled.

Local RPS programming

Use the B426 IP Direct connect feature to locally connect with RPS. This connection method
requires a direct IP connection from the RPS computer to theB426 Ethernet port.
Connecting the B426 to RPS using IP Direct:

Installation and control panel wiring (B426)

Ensure that there is enough power for the module and other powered devices you want
connected to the system.
Refer to On-board outputs, page 58.
Caution!
Remove all power (AC and battery) before making any connections. Failure to do so might
!
result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.

Communication supervision. The control panel supervises the communication path by
polling the central station receiver. If the poll is missed from either side, a communication
fault is declared both at the control panel and the central station receiver.
If the B426 does not use the Ethernet for IP communication, perform Steps 2 and 3. If the
B426 does use the Ethernet for IP communication, power down the B426 and remove the
Ethernet cable that connects it to the network.
Connect the B426 to the RPS computer using the Ethernet ports and a standard Ethernet
cable, and apply power to the B426, if applicable. Within 2 minutes, the RPS computer
assigns an IP address using AutoIP.
In RPS, open the control panel account and click the Connect button. From the Connect
Via drop-down list select IP Direct. Click Connect. Once connected, perform the
necessary tasks, and disconnect when finished.
Reconnect the cable used for IP communication, if applicable.
Set the module address to one using the address switch before you install it in the
enclosure.
Install the module in the enclosure with the control panel or in an adjacent enclosure that
is no more than 1000 ft (305 m) using 18 AWG to 22 AWG (1.02 mm to 0.65 mm) wire
from the control panel.
Use the screws provided with the module to secure the module in the enclosure.
