RDU (CONTINUED)
The RZDU MCP can be mapped to a FIP zone by entering a zone number.
Transmitting Zone Names to an RDU
F3200 V2.03 software or later and RDU V2.01 software or later allow the downloading of
zone and module relay names to connected RDUs using the comms link to the RDU. This is
initiated from the SET menu described in Section 6.2.1. A password is required to initiate
this command.
To save the zone names at an RDU, it must have its database write protect link in the write
enable position.
After the command is initiated the FIP will send up to 8 zone names to the RDUs every 2
seconds. The current zone number being sent is displayed on the LCD. The CLEAR key
may be used to terminate the process at any time. The FIP will send the names of up to 64
alarm zones and 64 module relays.
The F3200 FIP (all software versions) will also send the name of a zone to an RDU
whenever an FFCIF alarm is generated for that zone. If programmed to, the RDU will save
the zone name received with an FFCIF alarm event into its database.
Some RDUs support software write protection of their database, which allows them to have
their database write protect link permanently left in the write enable position and thus receive
the new zone names from the F3200.
