Programming transmitters:
Refer to "Overview", page 2, for a description of programming features. This section
describes programming transmitters by directly connecting them to the receiver. Note that
the FA116 programmer permits users to change all receiver and transmitter options.
Default programming without the FA516 display module: Transmitters are connected to the
FA416 with the programming cable. When the desired Output LED is turned on, the transmitter is programmed
by pressing the transmitter reset button.
1. Refer to Appendices A and B to determine available pre-programmed parameters. Default transmitter
parameters for the FA416 are: Channels 1 and 2 will program transmitters for Normally Open external
switch contacts, Channels 3 and 4 will program transmitters for Normally Closed external switch contacts.
2. Select a point number which matches desired transmitter parameters.
3. Press the Advance button on the FA416 as often as needed to turn on the Output LED for the desired
transmitter channel. (Output LED 1 equals point # 1, etc.) The LED will blink if the point has not been
programmed. If a transmitter has already been programmed to that channel, the LED will be on steady.
4. Connect the programming cable to the transmitter and then to the Transmitter Programming Port on
the FA416.
5. Press the transmitter reset button. (Refer to Appendix C.) When the transmitter is successfully
programmed the selected channel LED will briefly go on solid and then will go out. (It may be necessary
to press the transmitter reset button more than once, if the receiver is "busy" with signals from other
transmitters.)
Default programming with the FA516 display module: Up to 16 transmitters can be selected
and programmed. The Channel Display indicates the point number, the red LEDs show point status and the
green Programmed LED indicates if the point is programmed or not. The Review button on the FA516 is
pressed to indicate current status of transmitters. The Review button is also used to exit programming mode.
1. Refer to Appendices A and B to determine available pre-programmed receiver and transmitter
parameters.
2. Select a point number which matches desired transmitter parameters.
3. Use the Advance button on the FA416 to change the Channel Display to the point desired. (Hold the
Advance button to scroll rapidly through points.) The green Programmed LED will indicate
unprogrammmed points by flashing, programmed points with constant "on". In addition, the LED for the
output assigned to the point being programmed will also be "on".
4. Connect the transmitter to the Transmitter Programming Port with the programming cable.
5. Press the transmitter reset button. The Programmed LED will turn on solid indicating programming is
accomplished. (It may be necessary to press the transmitter reset button more than once, if the receiver
is "busy" with signals from other transmitters.)
6. To program additional transmitters, repeat Steps 1-5.
7. To exit program mode, press the Review button or the Reset button.
