3.2 User Programming
The MS-9050UD is completely field programmable and requires no special software skills. While
programming the MS-9050UD, the fire protection capabilities of the control panel are enabled.
Site-specific programming may be accomplished in three ways:
• Autoprogramming Feature - This is a convenient method for quickly bringing the FACP
addressable SLC devices on-line without the necessity of programming each device
individually. Refer to “Autoprogram” on page 58 for a detailed description of
Autoprogramming
• Manual programming or editing, using the FACP keypad or a PC keyboard
• Off-line Programming and Editing Feature - allows creation and editing of site-specific custom
programs using a Windows-based computer. For programs requiring a large amount of data
entry, this method may be preferred. A PK-CD programming kit can be ordered for this
purpose
The System All Normal screen will be displayed in a programmed system with no active alarms,
troubles or supervisories, as illustrated below:
Read Status and Manual Dial mode can be entered while the panel is in any mode of operation.
Manual Dial mode, however, cannot be entered while the panel is communicating with the Central
Station. If an alarm or supervisory event exists at the panel, the event must be cleared before enter-
ing Programming mode. To access any of the programming or read status features, the Enter or
Mode key must be pressed, which will cause the LCD to display the following:
Pressing 1, while this screen is being displayed, will cause the control panel to enter the Read Sta-
tus Mode which allows the user to view the programmed features and status of the control panel
The Read Status feature is not password protected. Refer to“Read Status” on page 136 for a
detailed description of this feature.
Pressing 2 will select user Programming Mode which may only be accomplished by an authorized
person. After pressing 2, a screen will prompt for a password. After entering the correct password,
the user may select from a list of programming options.
Pressing 3 will select the Manual Dial Mode which allows the user to enter a troubleshoot mode of
operation.
Pressing 4 will select Remote Download which allows the user to enable the remote programming
option. Refer to“Remote Download” on page 150.
Exit Programming, Read Status, and Manual Dial Mode
The programmer can exit any mode by repeatedly pressing the keypad ESC (Escape) key until the
display reads System All Normal. Note that the data which is entered during Programming mode
is not saved until the programmer exits this mode by repeatedly pressing the ‘ESC’ key. If the Reset
key is pressed or power is lost before exiting Programming mode, all data just entered will be lost.
User Programming Levels
There are two user programming levels:
• User Master Program Level 1 is used for programming panel specific data relating to device
types, zoning, messages, control panel functions, etc.
