MOD-PRT-M
Multi Serial Interface for NOTIFIER AM Series Control Panels
FEATURES
Multi‐address interface for NOTIFIER AM Series
control panels (fire and gas); provides a serial output
with 7 wires for printer and four serial output with 3
wires CEI‐ABI/MODBUS suitable for supervision
system connection, as NotiNet 2000 and EuroNet.
Printer output performs 3 printing modes:
on‐line
log
system
INSTALLATION
MOD‐PRT‐M interface is designed and realized to be
installed inside AM Series control panels or nearby
(max. length of serial cables = 15mt). Remove power
supply before proceeding with electrical connection.
FUNCTIONING
MOD‐PRT‐M interface, after AM Series contorl panel
serial connection, acquires data through an alignment.
During this alignment the LED flahses according to
cycle 2 seconds off, 0.1 seconds on (green light); the
print and serial CHANNELs A, B, C and D are blocked.
New programming carried out on AM control panel, if
any, automatically will set a new alignment. Once the
alignment is completed, the interface starts saving
events into non volatile memory – the memory
capacity is 4096 events. MOD‐PRT‐M interface saves
for each serial CHANNEL (printer, serial A, B, C, D) the
ID of the last sent event and in case of communication
stop it restarts from the point of interruption. To
eliminate the spooled events for all the CHANNELs,
push RST button for more than 5 seconds, the LED L1
is switched off for 2 seconds and then it becomes
green lighted.
COMMUNICATION INTERRUPTION WITH AM
CONTROL PANEL
The communication interruption with AM Series
control panel is notified by quick flashing green LED.
Every communication interruption will start a new
MOD‐PRT‐M alignment.
ON‐LINE PRINT
On‐line print is a pre‐set mode of functioning (fixed
green LED). The saved events are sent to the printer,
starting from last printed event, as soon as the printer
CHANNEL is connected.
CEIA660
LOG PRINT
This function mode allows printing the last 1000
events saved into MOD‐PRT‐M. To carry out the log
print, push RST button (with LED L1 fixed green lighted
or quick flashing) for more than 2 seconds until the
LED L1 turns into fixed red lighted, then release the
button and push it again for less than 2 seconds; the
LED L1 turns into quick red flashing and the print
starts.
SYSTEM PRINT
This function mode allows printing the list of sensors
(with related chamber value in %), input and output
modules.
To carry out the system print, push RST button (with
LED L1 fixed green lighted) for more than 2 seconds
until the LED L1 turns into fixed red lighted, then
release the button and push it again for more than 2
seconds until the LED L1 turns into slow yellow
flashing; once the alignment is completed the LED
turns into quick yellow flashing and the print starts
PRINT INTERRUPTION
To interrupt the log or system print and return to on‐
line mode, push RST button, the LED L1 turns into
fixed greed.
When the LED is fixed red or yellow and the print will
not start within 10 seconds, MOD‐PRT‐M interface will
automatically return to on‐line mode and the LED is
fixed green.
CHANNELS A, B, C, D
The serial CHANNELs are transparent.
For each CHANNEL it is possible to select
communication protocol CEI‐ABI or MODBUS and the
connection in 232 or 485.
During MOD‐PRT‐M or CHANNELs alignment every
command is ignored.
The CHANNELs can carry out the alignment
simultaneously.
For any CHANNEL, after the related alignment, only
new event will be sent.
During the alignment the LEDs flash according to cycle
2 seconds off, on, off, on as quick sequence:
Green for CHANNELs A ‐ C
Red for CHANNELs B ‐ D
Yellow for CHANNELs A+B – C+D
