INTRODUCTION The Model RPM from Siemens Industry,

Inc., is an HNET module that interfaces

to a Centronics parallel printer. It must

be located where access to the

FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety

Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular HNET

network and the PSC-12 24VDC power

limited output are available.

The RPM is required whenever a logging printer is needed. It translates

the HNET messages into a standard Centronics printer interface. When used

in conjunction with the PAL-1, it provides a supervised logging printer meeting the

requirements of NFPA 72 Proprietary or UL 1076 Security systems. For NFPA 72

Local, Auxiliary or Remote Station applications any UL EDP listed Centronics parallel

printer may be used (See notes 2, 3, and 4 on Figure 3).

The RPM also provides an optional Foreign System Interface (FSI). The FSI allows

other building systems to monitor the status of the FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety

Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular system. The FSI connects to Ports 1-3 on the RPM.

This connection can be either RS-232 (Ports 1 or 3) or RS-485 (Port 2). Only one FSI

connection per RPM is allowed. The FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/

Cerberus PRO Modular system supports a maximum of two simultaneous FSI

connections. With two simultaneous FSI connections the following combinations are

supported: Two Local FSI connections or one Global and one Local FSI connection. A

total of two Global FSI connections are supported in an XNET network. Each Global

FSI connection must originate from its own XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/

Cerberus PRO Modular node. Use of the RPM for FSI is not supported for Desigo

CC/Cerberus DMS WAN applications.

Features RPM features are as follows:

• Supervision of the PAL-1 includes paper out, paper jam, printer off line,

printer power off and printer disconnected.

• Can be connected to the HNET either Style 4 or Style 7.

• Includes diagnostic LEDs to indicate failure of the HNET or the CPU. It also

has a power on indicator.

• Includes a reset switch in the event that the RPM requires a hardware

reset.

• Can be mounted on any smooth surface within 6 feet of the PAL-1.

• Single Foreign System Interface (FSI) connection (not supported for Desigo

CC/Cerberus DMS WAN).

• FSI supports Local (single system) or Global (multiple systems) operation.

Installation Instructions M odel RPM Remote Printer Module INTRODUCTION The Model RPM from Siemens Industry, Inc., is an HNET module that interfaces to a Centronics parallel printer. It must be located where access to the FireFinder-XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular HNET network and the PSC-12 24VDC power limited output are available. Figure 1 RPM Remote Printer Module The RPM is required whenever a logging printer is needed.

OPERATION When a system event occurs, the PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3 (XLS), FCM2041-U2 (Desigo Fire Safety Modular), FCM2041-U3 (Cerberus PRO Modular) sends a print message to the RPM via HNET. The RPM is responsible for printing the message. The RPM contains a buffer to ensure that events that occur at a rate faster than the PAL-1 can print them are not lost. If the FSI option is selected (via Zeus) the same event is sent to the FSI port. This event remains in a buffer until the Foreign System removes it.
PAGE 3
PRE-INSTALLATION Before connecting either the printer, power, FSI or the HNET, the network address must be set for the RPM using the three-position switch. (Refer to Figure 2 for the location of the switch.) The address for the RPM must be the same as the address selected for it in the Zeus Programming Tool. To increment each digit of the address, press the “+” button above the desired digit; to decrement each digit, press the “-” button below the desired digit.

WIRING Remove all system power before installation, first battery then AC. (To power up, connect the AC first, then the battery.) The PAL-1 is connected to the RPM with a standard PC printer cable. This cable is supplied with the RPM. Connect the PAL-1 to the RPM using this cable. The two ends of the cable are different, ensuring proper connection. See Figure 4. The RPM requires 24VDC to operate. This power is available on the PSC-12. See Figure 5 for wiring details. NOTES: 1. 18 AWG min., 12 AWG max. 2.

The PAL-1 requires a standby power source in the event of the loss of primary input power (AC mains). Refer to Figure 9 for the connection of a UPS to meet this requirement. NOTES: 1. All wires 14 AWG min., 600V insulation. 2. Wiring to the printer must be 14 AWG min., 600V insulation in conduit. 3. Use the UPS ICS Lifeline Model 9300057. 4. Standby Power requirements: 120 VAC, 0.6A for 24 hours. 120 VAC UTILITY POWER SOURCE TO HTRI-S/-D/-R INPUT TERMINALS.

Maximum Current 150mA. 6. Optional supervision (selected in Zeus) (2 wire only). 7. Foreign System must be UL EDP or ETI listed. 8. A 120 ohm EOLR is internally connected to Port 2 terminals 1 and 2. 9. Only ONE FSI (RS-232 or RS-485) connection allowed per RPM.
