1.4 Programming Manual
Installing IRC-3 Data Entry Program
Dual Floppy Disk Systems
Caution: A floppy disk-based system is NOT recommended for
compiling and downloading large databases. A hard disk-based system
is required for optimum performance.
Note: The DOS system disk must be in drive A: (when using a dual
floppy based system) OR the COMMAND.COM file must be on your
disk containing the IRC-3 program to correctly perform all necessary
functions in the data entry program.
1. Insert the 3½” disk into drive B: of your computer.
2. At the DOS prompt, type:
B: <Enter>
3. At the DOS prompt, type:
IRC3 <Enter>
The IRC-3 program will automatically detect the type of monitor your
system has installed. If you have a monochrome monitor installed but
your PC emulates a color monitor, the program will come up in the
color mode. In this case you may wish to force the program into the
monochrome mode for a clearer display. This is done by entering in the
following at the DOS prompt:
IRC3 -m <Enter>
Hard Drive Systems
1. At the DOS prompt, type:
MD IRC3 <Enter>
to create a subdirectory on your computer’s hard disk for the data
entry program.
2. At the DOS prompt, type:

Programming Manual 1.7
Program/System Limits
As in all computer based systems, the IRC-3 network has a finite limit
to the number of items that can be stored in its memory. The network
achieves optimum use of available database memory storage because
each CM1, CM1N, and CM2N panel stores system responses to off
normal conditions of its zones in its own memory. This section provides
you with a method of estimating (calculating) the total memory
requirements of each panel in the network.
The maximum number of zone responses in a CM1N or CM1 is 576,
which includes responses from the ACP, annunciators, and IRC-1
panels. If the number of zone responses in a CM1N exceeds 576, a
CM2N (address = 62) can be added as a data buffer to hold an
additional 576 zone responses. In a single-enclosure system using a
CM1/CM2 configuration, when calculating memory requirements for
the CM1, you must take into account all of the zones on the system
because the CM2 does not have any memory capacity for zone
responses.
Each CM1(N) or CM2N module must be calculated for memory size. It
is most important that the CM1(N) be calculated because its database
information is used to coordinate activity for the entire network as well
as holding its own zone response database. The CM1(N), therefore,
requires the largest database memory space. The CM1(N), as well as
the CM2N modules, have 32K bytes of EEPROM memory available for
database storage. This 32K bytes is a finite limit of each control module
in the network.
The first worksheet will step you through the calculation of memory
usage in a CM1 or CM1N. The second worksheet will step you through
the calculation of memory usage in a CM2N. The CM2 does not
contain memory for zone responses, actions, etc., and therefore does not
require a memory calculation.
Additional System Considerations
Sequences active at any one time: = 256 steps
One step is a [time delay][action] group.
Example: [time delay][action] è[time delay][action] = 2 steps
"AND" statements programmed: = 256 items
An item is the total number of entries on all of the "AND" statements.
Outputs active at any one time: = 1024 An output is a relay or LED.
Disabled devices/zones (incl. status zones), messages, actions and/or
sequences at any one time: = 832
Device/zone is either a standard zone, sensor, or module.
Time controls active at any one time: = 255
Patrol numbers maximum per patrol list: = 255
Maximum number of active patrol lists (at any one time): = 1
Maximum number of external panel addresses per network: = 28
(CM1NX = 52)

Maximum number of actions specified multi-resident: = 100
Maximum number of "AND" statements specified multi-resident: = 100
Maximum number of time controls specified multi-resident: = 100
Maximum number of sequences specified multi-resident: = 100
Number of messages waiting: = 127
CM1(N) Memory Calculation
Step #1
In this step, you must calculate the total number of items
(zones/devices) that may have their responses reside in the CM1 or the
CM1N panel. The responses for zones/devices that are physically
installed in the CM1(N) as well as zones in the ACP, RASP, and IRC-1
panels are stored in the CM1(N) EEPROM memory. Panels such as the
IRC-1, ACP, RASP, and the CM2 do NOT contain provisions for on-
board database memory storage and must therefore use the CM1(N)'s
memory.

CM1(N) Modules (M500MF/CF, M501MF) = __________

Step #2
This step calculates the total memory requirement of the CM1(N).
Defined Items Total Quantity
Total # of Items in Directory = (e) x 4 = _____
Average # of Entries/Actions =____ x (b) x 4 = _____
Average # of Entries/Zones =____ x (a) x 4 = _____
Average # of Entries Sequences =____ x (c) x 4 = _____
Average # of Entries/Time Controls =____ x (d) x 4 = _____
Message Calculation = (a) x 44 = _____
Total (maximum 32,000) = _____
Notes
This 32K maximum memory size is more than sufficient for most
installations. If, after a careful calculation of the CM1(N) memory size,
it is apparent that the 32K byte limit is exceeded, some of the burden of
database storage may be placed on the CM2N panels. This may be
accomplished in either of two ways:
1. Use fewer actions and place the output activations, etc. directly in
the CM2N zone responses.
2. Limit the CM1(N) to only a single ZAS Card. In cases where a
CM1(N) and a CM2N are in the same enclosure, place one of the
ZAS Cards in the CM2N.
CM2N(D) Memory Calculation
Step #1
In this step, you must calculate the total number of items (zones) that
may have their responses reside in each CM2N(D) in the system. The
responses for zones that are physically installed in the CM2N minus any
priority response zones are counted in this step.
Defined Items Total Quantity
CM2N(D) Standard Zones = __________
CM2N(D) Modules (M500MF/CF, M501MF) = __________
CM2N(D) Sensors (1551F, 2551F, 5551F) = __________

Programming Manual 1.11
System Addressing
Each physical IRC-3 enclosure may have multiple panel addresses
depending upon the type and position of option cards in the control
modules CM1, CM1N, CM2, CM2N(D), or RMDP-1N. References are
made throughout this manual to the term "PANEL". A “panel” for the
purposes of programming is a unit of addressing that contains up to 96
inputs and 96 outputs. A "panel" is NOT an enclosure, but is a unit that
is polled by the computer and is capable of reporting up to 96 inputs
and controlling up to 96 outputs. The list below indicates the number of
panel addresses per equipment type:
Panel Addressing
Equipment Type Panel Addresses Required
IRC-1 1
ACP 1 (firmware set at #41)
ACP-6 3 (firmware set at #41, 42, 43)
FCCA 1 (firmware set at #41)
FCCA-4 2 (firmware set at #41, 42)
FCCA-6 3 (firmware set at #41, 42, 43)
GDP 1 (firmware set at #42)
SAN (Serial Annunciators) 1 per CPU Card
REM (Matrix Annunciators) 4
CM1(N) 4 (firmware set at #01, 02, 03, 04)
CM2(N)(D) 1 to 4 (depending upon cards installed)
The examples that follow illustrate addressing parameters of the
CM2(N) panels.
Notes
1. The CM1(N) always uses the first four addresses in the system (01,
02, 03, 04). The addressing of the zones and the relays in the
CM1(N) follow the examples below as illustrated for the
CM2(N)(D).
2. For CM1NX or RMDP-1NX, the maximum number of remote panel
addresses is 52. The limit of 32 electrical drops on the RS-485 and
10 electrical drops on the fiber optic or 20mA communications line
still applies.
