How do I program addressable devices into the FENWALNET 6000 panel, and what software is required?
You can program the FENWALNET 6000 using the FCS-6000 Configuration Program for site-specific applications or utilize the built-in Auto-Setup and AutoLearn routines for faster, standard configurations (Page 2, 160) [1].
Before the panel can recognize devices, each must be assigned a unique address from 001 to 255 (Page 198) [1].
Addressing Devices
-
Use a Handheld Programmer (P/N 74-200013-001) to electronically set addresses before installation (Page 196) [1].
-
Alternatively, use the front panel by pressing 0, entering the password, and navigating to Set-Menu > SLC Devices > Device Address Change (Page 97) [1].
-
Enter the default address (000) and then the new target address (Page 97) [1].
System Configuration
-
Auto-Setup Routine: Automatically configures typical waterless fire-suppression scenarios based on device type and address (Page 2, 160) [1].
-
AutoLearn Routine: Creates a general-alarm "one-input-activates-all-outputs" application (Page 2) [1].
-
FCS-6000 Software: Required for complex control-by-event scenarios and custom 40-character location messages (Page 2, 160) [1].
