Programming/Read Status
CHAPTER 3
NOTE: This chapter provides a detailed description of the FACP programming. For your convenience, a Program-
ming Flowchart has been included in "Screen Options Flowchart" on page 100. It may be helpful to follow along
with the flowchart as this chapter is reviewed.
The MS-9200 is completely field programmable and requires no special software skills. Programming may be
accomplished in one of three ways:
• The Autoprogram Feature - this method is very convenient for quickly bringing the MS-9200 on-line or for
program editing
• Manual Programming or editing, using the MS-9200 keypad
• The Off-Line Programming Feature - this method allows creation of site-specific custom programs using a
DOS-based or Windows-based computer. For programs requiring a large amount of data entry, this method
may be preferred. A PK-9200(W) programming kit may be ordered for this purpose.
When a programmed system is normal with no active alarms, troubles or supervisories, the 'SYSTEMS ALL
NORMAL' screen will be displayed as shown below:
In order to (1) program the system, (2) read system status, (3) print, (4) edit or (5) walktest, the ENTER key must first

ing to program the system, place the SW1 Write Protect switch in the down position. SW1 is located on the lower-
right side of the MS-9200 main circuit board. Refer to the illustration on page 6. If the switch is in the up 'Write
Protect' position while attempting to enter the Programming Mode, the LCD will display the following:
In order to program the system, a valid password must first be entered. Once the correct password is entered, the user
may select Autoprogram or Program Edit. After programming is completed, return switch SW1 to the Write Protect
position.
