  • Page 8: How To Begin

    How To Begin Without a careful and well planned approach to programming, the task of data entry will become unmanageable. The IRC-3 network is very versatile and capable of performing the same function in many different ways. Because of the versatility of this program, a high degree of system understanding and preparation is required to program the system.

  • Page 9: Pc Hardware Requirements

    PC Hardware Requirements All user-defined system data must be entered on an IBM PC-compatible computer and downloaded to the IRC-3 system via an RS-232C serial port. Your PC must be UL EDP listed and have the following: 1. One RS-232C serial communications port.

  • Page 13: Program/System Limits

    Program/System Limits As in all computer based systems, the IRC-3 network has a finite limit to the number of items that can be stored in its memory. The network achieves optimum use of available database memory storage because each CM1, CM1N, and CM2N panel stores system responses to off normal conditions of its zones in its own memory.
