The Nmc Network - Mircom Fire-Link NMC-100 Series Installation And Operation Manual

Notice that the display has a menu pointer (>). Use the scroll up and scroll down keys to select the desired menu
function then press ENT (Enter) to execute. Use the BCK (Back) button to back up or back out of a menu option
or screen.
Following is a list of display abbreviations:
UP - Scroll Up
DWN - Scroll Down
< - Scroll Left
> - Scroll Right
ENT - Enter (execute or accept)
BCK - Back One Menu Screen
NXT - Next Entry
PRV - Previous Entry
Only the command line function will be indicated in this manual. There will be times when numbers and
characters will need to be entered into the NMC, such as the date, time, VID, etc. If, for example, it is required to
enter the following:
1. 1BE8AF
2. Press the 1 key
3. Press 2 key twice until B appears
4. Press 3 key until E appears, and so on.
When finished, press the ENT key to accept. Use the above keys in the same manner to enter these special
characters:.,!_:- ><_-'()=!/\\@`~#{}$|;% ^&[ ].
NOTE: The 'ENT' key must always be pressed to accept the current value or changes. Even though the
display may show a change in the display field, the changes are not committed until the ENT key is pressed.
When editing, it is not necessary to re-enter the entire value - only individual digits need to be changed. For
example, if 1BE8AF is to be changed to 1BECAF, use the scroll keys <> to scroll to 8, change 8 to C then press
ENT to accept.

2.7 The NMC Network

The NMC and plurality of ISDs form a Master/Slave topology network in and of itself, when connected to the
FACP (regardless of whether the NMC is installed as a Master or Slave to the FACP). The NMC acts as the
Master and the ISDs are the Slaves on the NMC Network. See Figure 7 below.
