MPC-6000 / MPC-7000 / RND-2 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
Operation of the ACKNOWLEDGE button within 15 seconds will add a number of seconds (60-
180) to the PAS timer for the purpose of investigation. If the ACKNOWLEDGE button is not
operated within 15 seconds, the additional user-programmed outputs activate.
If the initiating device and the panel are reset before the PAS timer times out, the alarm
sequence is aborted.
During the investigation period, an alarm condition on a device programmed for direct alarm
response will override the PAS timer and activate the additional user-programmed outputs.
See the MPC-6000 / MPC-7000/ RND-2 Programming Manual, P/N 315-049403FA, for
additional details.
 PRE-SIGNAL ALARMS
Activation of an initiating device in an input group programmed for PRE-SIGNAL, activates the
Alarm LED, display, buzzer, system and user-programmed outputs.
The delay of activation of additional user-programmed outputs can be programmed from 60 to
180 seconds. If the system is not reset during this period, these additional user-programmed
outputs will activate.
See the MPC-6000 / MPC-7000/ RND-2 Programming Manual, P/N 315-049403FA, for
additional details.
Do not reset the system until the alarm condition has been cleared. The LCD will indicate the
area in which the alarm was detected. The detector or module associated with the device
initiating the alarm will display a light indicating activation (if applicable).
When the alarm condition has been corrected, return the system to standby operation by
pressing the SYSTEM RESET button.
 ALARMS ON RELEASING ZONES (MPC-6000 ONLY)
Devices that activate the releasing circuits must be assigned to the releasing group via the CIS-4
configuration tool or front panel programming. The releasing group may be configured to activate on
any one alarm, any two alarms, or any one smoke plus any one thermal alarm.
For instance, if the threshold of the group was set at any 2, the following would occur:
The first device activating will put the panel in a releasing group 1
device in that group activates, it will start the pre-discharge timer and put the panel in the pre-discharge
condition. If the threshold were to be set at one, any device in that group activating would immediately
start the pre-discharge timer.
When the pre-discharge timer is activated, the LCD displays the timer as it counts down and the "Pre-
Discharge" LED will be ON-steady.
When the pre-discharge timer expires, the panel goes to the discharge condition and activates the
releasing zones. The "Discharge" LED will be ON-steady.
It is recommended that the releasing group has devices with abort and manual release usages.
