Siemens RPM Remote Printer Module, Installation Instructions

Installation Instructions RPM Printer Module Model RPM from Siemens Industry is an HNET module that interfaces a Centronics parallel printer It must located where access to the Fire Safety PRO Modular HNET and the PSC 12 24VDC power output are available 1 Remote Printer Module RPM is required whenever a logging printer is needed It translates HNET messages into a standard Centronics printer interface When used conjunction with the PAL 1 it provides a supervised logging printer meeting the of NFPA 72 Proprietary or UL 1076 Security systems For NFPA 72 Auxiliary or Remote Station applications any UL EDP listed Centronics parallel may be used See notes 2 3 and 4 on Figure 3 RPM also provides an optional Foreign System Interface FSI The FSI allows building systems to monitor the status of the FireFinder XLS Desigo Fire Safety PRO Modular system The FSI connects to Ports 1 3 on the RPM connection can be either RS 232 Ports 1 or 3 or RS 485 Port 2 Only one FSI per RPM is allowed The FireFinder XLS Desigo Fire Safety Modular PRO Modular system supports a maximum of two simultaneous FSI With two simultaneous FSI connections the following combinations are Two Local FSI connections or one Global and one Local FSI connection A of two Global FSI connections are supported in an XNET network Each Global connection must originate from its own XLS Desigo Fire Safety Modular PRO Modular node Use of the RPM for FSI is not supported for Desigo DMS WAN applications of the PAL 1 includes paper out paper jam printer off line power off and printer disconnected be connected to the HNET either Style 4 or Style 7 diagnostic LEDs to indicate failure of the HNET or the CPU It also a power on indicator a reset switch in the event that the RPM requires a hardware be mounted on any smooth surface within 6 feet of the PAL 1 Foreign System Interface FSI connection not supported for Desigo DMS WAN supports Local single system or Global multiple systems operation

switch Refer to Figure 2 for the of the switch The address for the RPM must be the same as the address for it in the Zeus Programming Tool To increment each digit of the address the button above the desired digit to decrement each digit press the below the desired digit The range of allowable addresses is from 001 to leading zeros must be used the RPM is located at the end of the HNET network Style 4 only the termination must be set to ON Otherwise it must be set to OFF 3 The RPM Terminal Block Covers terminal block covers are provided with the RPM Each comes as two separate a lower bracket which has a inch conduit opening and a cover Attach the bracket to each end of the RPM using four of the 10 nuts provided in the hardware kit Reserve the covers and the remaining hardware until the RPM is and wired the RPM to either the wall or desk where the PAL 1 is located Use the four holes in the lower bracket or EDP LISTED PRINTER VAC Hz SUPPLIED WITH RPM LIMITED The maximum distance from the RPM to the PAL 1 is 6 feet The two modules must be in the same room For NFPA 72 Local Auxiliary and Remote Station configurations connect the output of the RPM to any EDP listed printer The printer must support the EPSON FX command set For NFPA 72 Proprietary of UL 1076 configurations use printer SIEMENS Model PAL 1 a UL listed for fire Centronics parallel printer The printer is supervised for AC loss off line paper out paper jam and connection to the RPM After loading the paper in the PAL 1 printer turn off the power and follow the steps below While pressing the LOAD PARK button turn on the power to the PAL 1 printer Keep pressing the LOAD PARK button for 5 seconds Release the LOAD PARK button The current setting will print When printing is completed the ON LINE indicator will be lit If the ON LINE indicator is not lit press the ON LINE button 4 The Printer To The RPM Industry Inc Infrastructure 315 033270 13 18 AWG min 12 AWG max Power limited to NFPA72 NEC
