MR-2900 Programming Manual 1.0 Operation and Programming Concepts Warnings: Before Programming 1. All applicable codes and standards should be considered when programming the Control Unit. 2. The Control Unit continues to monitor input circuits and devices and acts according to the current program settings if an alarm is received while it is being programmed.
Page 328
MR-2900 Programming Manual 1.2 Networks General The MR-2900 can be incorporated into a network including other MR-2900 panels, MR-2200 panels and MR-2944 annunciators. Though up to 254 panels and annunciators can be supported by the network, such a network would probably be too large to properly maintain. The network can be setup for single building or multiple building operation.
Page 329
MR-2900 Programming Manual has become available. This will cause the LEDs to continue flashing after the key is pressed until the frame is received to turn off the LED. Time/Date Change This broadcast frame is sent by a panel or annunciator if the time or date is changed. The master panel also will send both a date and time change frame at 3:30am every day to synchronize all the clocks in the network.
Page 330
MR-2900 Programming Manual Broadcast Frames Broadcast frames deal with information that affects the entire network. When a broadcast frame is created by a panel or annunciator, it is sent out both network communications ports. Each unit in turn will receive the broadcast in one port, act upon it and pass it on out the other port. Upon reaching the unit that generated the broadcast frame, that unit then disposes of it.
Page 331
MR-2900 Programming Manual The MRI-M500DM dual monitor module has two Class (Style) B input circuits. The first input uses the address dialled into the module and the second uses that address plus 1. That is, if the dials are set for address 34, the monitor modules to be programmed into MHI are at addresses 134 and 135.

MR-2900 Programming Manual circuit to prevent excess current flow. While the panel will continue to respond to further alarms from the circuit, the panel will not turn on additional LEDs. The MRI-B501BH and MRI-B501BHT sounder bases require a separate 24 VDC supply for operation. If the polarity of this supply is reversed for more than 10 seconds, the sounder base will activate.
Page 333
MR-2900 Programming Manual 1.4 Releasing Service The eight output circuits are available for releasing service through programming. The MRI-M500S control module can also be programmed for releasing. Releasers can be programmed to be normally On (Continuous) or normally Off (Momentary). Continuous releasers will be turned off by a loss of AC power as well as by input.
Page 334
MR-2900 Programming Manual 1.5 Resetting 4-Wire Detectors 4-wire detectors can be reset by using one of the function relays on the panel. The relay is not programmed for any use, that is, it is unassigned. The next requirement is that a non-zero duration be programmed for it (see the section Outputs Dialog).
