To calculate the wire run distance for any gauge wire and any maximum current value, use the following formula: Rmax = 1.25 ohms Imax Amps Distance = Rmax × 1,000 feet 2(wire resistance in ohms per 1,000 feet) Secutron Inc.
The following devices may be connected to the Secur-bus. All devices are supervised. See the section 6.3.7 Entering the Reset Programming Mode on page 48 for information on adding and deleting devices on the Secur-bus. Devices Description MR-2605-T External to control panel. Up to 4 of each device may be connected. MR-2605-AT MR-2806 Mounted inside control panel.
This section describes how the panel functions under various conditions. The choices you make in panel programming will also affect how the panel operates. Please see Chapter 6 MR-2605 System Programming on page 39 for information on how to program the panel, and descriptions of each of the programming options.
If the Silence Trouble button is pressed, the buzzer turns off. Subsequent troubles will resound the trouble buzzer. Note: If there is no trouble present in the system then pressing the Silence Trouble button will result in a 1 second error tone. Secutron Inc.

1 second error tone. If any trouble or zone has a state change during lamp test, the lamp test will be cancelled and the panel will return to normal operation. Secutron Inc.
The panel deactivates the trouble relay upon any system trouble. The panel activates the trouble relay upon the restoral of all system troubles. 5.10.3 Supervisory Relay (available with the MR-2605-R3 Relay Expander only) The panel activates the supervisory relay upon any supervisory zone alarm. The panel deactivates the supervisory relay upon a successful system reset.
MR-2605 System Programming Programming the MR-2605 System is done using the Silence Trouble, Alarm Silence controls and the indicator LEDs. Programmed operating mode data is stored in non-volatile memory that retains the information if the power to the panel is removed.
3. Press any button. The trouble buzzer is silent, and the zone 1 alarm LED turns on steady. The common trouble LED continues to flash. 4. The panel is now ready to program. Figure 17 Locating the Walk Test Switch Secutron Inc.

Startup of the MR-2605 7.1 Prior to power up • Verify that all field wiring is free of shorts, opens and grounds and that end-of-line devices are connected and are the proper value. • Verify that all modules and internal cables are properly seated in their location.
Verify panel operations and feature selections by initiating alarms and troubles as described above. 7.5 Final Verification • Verify system operation and fault detection as required by the local Authority Having Jurisdiction. • Enable the ‘one-man’ walk test feature to test all the field devices and wiring. Secutron Inc.
Programming Worksheets 8.1 Entering the Installer Programming Mode Please see Chapter 6 MR-2605 System Programming on page 39 for complete instructions. Note: All zone alarms must be reset prior to entering the Installer Programming Mode. While the panel is in the Installer Programming Mode, the annunciators will show a trouble condition.
