  • Page 23: Programming

    4 PROGRAMMING The RAD-16LS is fully field programmable. No special programming tools are required. The programming information for the RAD-16LS is stored in an Electrically Erasable Prom. The information stored on this chip is retained even in the event of loss of power.

  • Page 24: Setting Box Number (Function 1)

    RAD-16LS INSTALLATION AND USER MANUAL To program a function once it has been selected, press the “TEST” button (SW1 through SW8 must be in the down position). The RAD will beep once. The “BATTERY FAULT” LED will go “OFF” and the “WATCHDOG” LED will come “ON.” The box is now in the programming sequence for the selected function.

  • Page 25: Panel Options 1 (Function 3)

    After programming all 16 zones, press “TEST” to save all tones and return to function selection mode. Function 2 is not used if the Digitize 99 Zone or King Fisher IRAC radio format are selected. Function 2 pertains to the Eagle Signal or King Fisher Radio Format only.

  • Page 27: Radio Box Format (Function 5)

    SW7 sets the number of zones that can be transmitted together in a radio transmission. The Digitize 99 zone format allows up to five zone to be transmitted per radio transmission. Placing SW7 in the Up position will allow five zones to be sent at one time.

  • Page 37: Theory Of Operation

    5 THEORY OF OPERATION ALARM INPUT The RAD-16LS contains sixteen separate alarm input channels. Each zone has a single bi- color led that can light either red for Alarm or yellow for Trouble. MICROPROCESSOR The RAD-16LS is a microprocessor based unit and contains a reusable EPROM to store the program and operating data.

  • Page 38: Controls

    “ANT”. 5.5.2 The FM transmitter is crystal controlled and frequency modulated. The FM transmitter plugs directly into the main board of the RAD-16LS. The antenna is plugged into the transmitter using the connector marked “ANT”. CONTROLS 5.6.1...

  • Page 39: Ac Power

    BYPASS - If a zone is bypassed, the associated LED for that zone will flash yellow. GROUND FAULT - If the RAD-16LS detects a Ground Fault on zone inputs, all of the zone LEDs will flash yellow.

  • Page 40: Standby Power Operation

    Standby Power Operation is also indicated by a flashing POWER LED. When a low battery condition is detected, the RAD-16LS will transmit this to the receiving console during a daily test transmission or whenever a radio transmission is made (determined by the radio format selected).

  • Page 41: Testing

    Using the table below, test all alarm and trouble initiating devices for each zone. Test each zone bypass switch by pushing switch to the “BYPASS” position and actuate an alarm. If working properly, the LED should light red indicating an alarm but the RAD-16LS should not transmit the alarm.
  • Page 42 RAD-16LS INSTALLATION AND USER MANUAL Hold down the “CLEAR/SILENCE” and “TEST” buttons simultaneously then press and release the “RESET” button. If the jumper is inserted correctly, the “COMM LINK” LED and all of the alarm LEDs will illuminate. The radio transmitter is now transmitting carrier.
