Optional Integrated Printer - Secutron MR-2900 Installation Manual

For NFAPA Style 7 connection of the network, port 1 of node 1 is connected to port 2 of node 2. Port 1 of
node 2 is connected to port 2 of node 3. Port 1 of node 3 is connected to port 2 of node 4. Therefore, in
general, port 1 of node N is connected to port 2 of node N+1. The last node of the network is handled
differently.
For example, assume the system has a total of 30 nodes. In this case, the last node of the system is node
30. Port 1 of node 30 is connected to port 2 of node 1. Using this pattern the entire system would be
connected according to NFPA Style 7 for SLC connections.
Notes:
• Synchronized NAC devices can only function properly when driven by synchronization modules
provided by the NAC device manufacturer. Please consult compatibility list within this manual.
• Follow the instructions provided with the synch modules for proper interconnection of these
synch modules to the panel and to the NAC circuits.
• Synchronization across the network is not provided. Synchronization can only be done on a per
sync module basis. Therefore, only NAC circuits connected to sync modules on the same node
can be synchronized.
• Addressable NAC circuits cannot be synchronized.

1.11 Optional Integrated Printer

The MR-2900 Control Unit can be ordered integrated with the MR-2920 Printer. The MR-2920 Printer is a
20 column thermal printer. The Control Unit and Printer come in a larger cabinet
(MR-2973) with the Printer in a compartment adjacent to the Control Unit. A compartment for 12 Ah
batteries is located below the Control Unit and Printer.
The printer uses thermal paper. A Paper Advance button is on the right side of the Printer Compartment
Cover. If the paper runs out, the printer stops printing. To start printing after installing paper, hold the Paper
Advance button for a few seconds. Paper Out is reported to the Control Panel.
The Terminal Board, Power Supply Board and Toroid are in the main compartment of the back box in the
same locations as they are in the regular back box. The backbox dimensions for the BB-2920B enclosure
are 22 1/16" Wide x 27 ½" High x 5½" Deep. The outer door dimensions are 24 3/8" Wide x 29 1/2 High x
1 ¼" Deep.
