Now press the "NO" key and scroll up to "Device Table" and press the "YES" key.

You can now look up the node number within the table to check whether it has been

onlined to the network.

If unsuccessful, check the connections in PO4334, between the panel and the LAN unit

and repeat the above.

The offline fault should clear from the panel.

7. To set up Mimics/Repeaters on the system

Before you can change any slave panels to mimic panels you have to make sure that the

network is communicating with the slave panels.

This is required because messages are sent across the network to configure the mimic

function. It is therefore essential that all nodes are online.

If there are any nodes that are offline this will be stated on the main screen as a fault.

Any offline nodes will need to be re-onlined. In order to do this you can follow the steps

within the previous section: Should a slave panel go offline you can have up to three

mimic/repeater panels on each system. To change panel(s) to have this functionality, at

the master panel enter the Main menu. Scroll down to Fire DB and press the "YES" key.

Now scroll down the Lan Fire DB menu to Mimic and press the "YES" key. Now whilst

within the Mimic menu simply scroll down to the nodes you want to change to Mimics.

Once found press the "YES" key to change their status from 'OFF' to 'ON'.

NOTE: Only change the settings of the "BUS nodes" as the "LAN nodes" are for

nodes with Radio connection. "BUS nodes" are for Hardwired LAN nodes, which

are used for this mimic application.

This process can be followed for up to three nodes.

The selected nodes will now be set as mimics and you can now exit the menu and return

to the main screen.
