INTRODUCTION

The MLR-MX interfaces to the Mobitex network to provide

wireless alarm reception from Sure Signal transmitters.

The MLR-MX’s real-time clock and calendar “stamps” all

information received with the time and date, and all information

may be printed or forwarded to a computer. To ensure security,

adjustment of the clock, calendar and other programming are

protected by password codes.

CPM2

The CPM2 Central Processing Module oversees operation of

the receivers. Along with its built-in keypad and LCD message

screen, the CPM2 features one parallel printer, and two serial

computer interface capability.

DRL-MX

Provides the interface to the Sure Signal CSR (Central Station

Radio) to establish a link on the Mobitex radio. This visual

interface will provide all alarm functionality for the Mobitex

network.

Supervision

The standby battery voltage and connections are supervised.

The Line Cards are also continuously supervised to ensure

uninterrupted communication with the CPM2. Any trouble

conditions are reported on the LCD screens and sent to the

MLR-MX Backplane Connection Diagram

MV3 MV2

P4 P2

R13

R11

R12

printer and the computer.

The DRL-MX Line Card Module verifies communication with

the CPM2. In the event of a malfunction, the operator will be

advised with a visual indicator and the Line Cards will continue

to function. Each line card will continue to receive information,

but will require manual acknowledgement.

The printer is supervised for loss of power, off-line, paper out

and other trouble conditions. The communication link to the

computer through the RS232 port is monitored by the supervisory

“heartbeat” test transmissions.

The DRL-MX supervises the Sure Signal CSR to ensure that the

signal strength and communication are always operational. Should

the unit register low signal strength (>30%) then unit would

display Low Signal Strength.

Compatibility

Central station automation software packages such as:

• M.A.S. • DICE • SIMSII • S.I.S. • GENESIS

Support the MLR-MX Sur-Gard interface.

CPM2 Outputs/Inputs

The CPM2 features four negative-switched outputs (POUT1 is

activated when automation fails), two relay outputs and four

inputs.

This section will outline the procedure for enrolling the Mobitex

radio onto the network. This section will also outline additional

features and functions that are to be added to the MLR-MX in

order for the receiver to operate correctly.

Sure Signal CSR Mounting

The following are guides for help placing a radio unit.

Location of the Antenna

The antenna should be placed in a location that will give a

signal strength of 80 to 100%. This will have to be flushed out

more completely when an antenna kit has been put together.

Location of the Sure Signal CSR Host

The radio host should be mounted on a wall that is away from

directly behind the receivers. As well, the radio host needs to

be within the required distance of the DRL-MX in order to

connect the RS232 cable between the receiver and the radio

host. This mounting location will also require ready access to

the drop through location of the antenna cable. Maximum distance

is 100 feet.

Changing Networks

There may be another network which you wish to use for a

radio that is currently operating, or for other radios that are to

be installed. In order to change the current provider for the

radio that requested the Network List. Once the provider has

set up the service the following steps will have to be followed

in order to change networks. Using the programming mode at

the CPM2, request a Network List. The following steps need to

be followed in order to check the network that is currently

being used, a list of the networks available and the attempt to

change networks.

At the CPM2, enter into programming mode.

Select the line (radio) that needs to be changed from the current

network to a new network.

Network options

•2C: current network request

In the code section, a nonuser number needs to be entered.

The MLR-2E will send a request network name to the radio.

The radio will respond with the current network name.

The printer will then print:

L11- Cantel

L11 is the receiver and line number; Cantel is the current

network.

Note: This network name does not need to be saved in the

MLR-MX.

•2D: request network list - print list to printer

In the code section, a nonzero number needs to be entered.

The MLR-MX will send a request network list to the radio.

The radio will respond with the reply network list.

The printer will then print:

L11- (01) Cantel

L11- (02) Bell

L11- (03) BCBell

L11- (04) SackBell

•2E: change network – enter number of the requested network,

or 00 in order to exit the section without changing the network.

When a nonzero number is entered, the MLR-MX will send

a change to other network to the radio.

The radio will respond with the current network name.

If 00 is entered, the receiver will request the network name

Once the programming mode has been exited, or a network

has been selected, then the network list can be removed

from RAM.

DRL-MX Displays

The two displays that are on the DRL-MX display boards will

be fully utilized. The top display indicates the status of the

Mobitex radio host that is connected to the receiver. The bottom

display will only be used to indicate received signals from Sure

Signal that are using the Mobitex radio network.

Top Display

The top display is used for displaying the host radio MAN, the

radio signal strength, as well as any trouble conditions that

occur during operation. The radio signal strength is taken out

of the radio status.

The following is an example of how the top display will appear,

under normal operation.

5004455 [45%]5004455 [45%]

5004455 [45%]

Network PresentNetwork Present

Network Present

In the example, the radio signal strength is 45%, and the

network was detected when the radio last communicated a

radio status to the receiver.

Bottom Display

The bottom display gives the information of the inbound

transmissions from the Sure Signals. The Sure Signal will be

the account number in decimal, for format type 1, that will be

displayed, and then the SIA event after. Inbound format type

2 will have an account number in the MPAK payload. Also,

the line card that the DRL-MX is assigned as will be displayed.

The following is an example of how a received transmission

will be displayed on the bottom display.

L11-5004454 Nri1L11-5004454 Nri1

L11-5004454 Nri1

In this example, this DRL-MX is receiver 1, line 1 to the CPM2.

The Sure Signal MAN, and account number, is 5004454, and

the event occurred on partition 1, and the event was a [A] key

alarm.

This display will follow the regular options of a line card display

on a regular MLR-MX.

firealarmresources.com

ADDITIONAL TROUBLES FOR THE SURE

SIGNAL CSR

All of the trouble conditions that occur, will be displayed on

the top display, sent to the printer, and sent to the automation

package. The information at the printer and the LCD will be

plain English messages. The output to the automation package

will be SIA, using the account code ‘0000’.

Loss of Radio

The MLR-MX requests a radio status every 5 seconds from the

Sure Signal CSR. If the receiver does not get a radio status back

within 250 msec., the radio will be considered as not connected.

Also, if there is not a radio status 30 seconds after a transmission

is attempted, then the loss of radio trouble will be indicated.

The display will show the following.

Option 24: Scada

The acronym «SCADA» stands for Supervisory Control And Data

Acquisition. This product consists of a package of SCADA receiver

and a CPM2 module. Its function is to transport the alarm data

from a local (satellite) central station to the master central

station reliably by using linked Modems (like the SG-M1) over

leased phone lines. This system is specifically intended for use

with a point to point 300 baud Schedule 3A data line (CANADA),

but can be used with any data lines.

The CPM2 software version 2.3 supports the data transactions

for up to 14 Digital and/or DVACS Compatible lines, but we

strongly suggest a maximum of 8 lines on the remote location

when used within a SCADA configuration. For the alarms output

choices (SYSTEM OPTION [24]) a number corresponding to each

of the line cards, one to fourteen, is indicated on the LCD at

14 positions from left to right as follows:

123456789ABCDE :123456789ABCDE :

123456789ABCDE :

4444444444444444444444444444

44444444444444

Press Enter or Backspace to move the cursor over the digit

corresponding to the line card you wish to change. Enter the

new digit; the CPM2 will display the change on the LCD, and

the cursor will move to the next digit. Change another digit,

as above, if desired, or exit and save the changes by pressing

<Escape>.

The numbers that can be programmed are:

0: no route at all - no printer output, no computer

output. (Not recommended)

1: send computer alarm messages only to the Com#1

(local computer) only.

2: send computer alarm messages only to Master central

through Com#2 for transmission to the SCADA of

the Master Receiver only.

3: send computer alarm messages to Com#1 (local

computer) and next to Com#2 for the SCADA

line card.

4: send computer alarm messages to Com#1 and

Com#2, and send printer alarm messages to Com#2.

Option 25: Printer Control

The Remote Receiver (SCADA) CPM2 sends data to the local

printer in the normal way, which can be enable/disable for

each line at option [25] as follows:

123456789ABCDE:123456789ABCDE:

123456789ABCDE:

1111111111111111111111111111

11111111111111

Programming “1” will enable the local printer report for

this specific line. “0” will disable the local printer for this

specific line.

NOTE: When it routes the data to the serial port Com#2, it

needs to insert the checksum calculation and support the

protocol described in more detail in the MLR2-SCADA manual.
