IMPORTANT NOTES!
The main purpose of the Repeater panel is presenting remote indication of fire alarm, fault, trouble, warning and other
type of events, reported from other fire alarm panels (IRIS and SIMPO series) or repeater panels connected into one
common network.
In case of making software or hardware Restore Defaults, the Repeater will restore the factory default settings,
including the Network Settings:
•The Panel Number of the Repeater at Network Settings submenu is set by default as 1 - the installer must set
the real number of the Repeater in the network before enabling it –see item 4.2.1.2.1.
•All connected panels will be recognised as NEW and must be added manually one-by-one in the PANELS
submenu of the Repeater.
•The options for Receiving/Sending control commands and receiving/repeating of messages for events are
Disabled –the installer must enable all of them to restore the reporting from the other panels in the network
and the remote indication in case of events –see item 4.2.1.2.2.
•The Repeater panel must be deleted from the rest panels in the network and ADDED again after all settings
are completed.
It is recommended, before making a Restore Defaults of the Repeater, to save its current system configuration
as TDF file using ProsTE specialized programming software. After software or hardware resetting, load the TDF
back to the Repeater and save time for introduce settings in menus. For details about ProsTE specialized programming
software ask your local distributer of the equipment.
