CERBERUS PYROTRONICS TSP-40 Thermal Strip Printer
Description
The TSP-40 is a thermal strip printer designed for use with the Cerberus Pyrotronics MXL system. It mounts in the MXL enclosure and its printout is visible through a window in the locked enclosure door. Printouts are automatically spooled on a take-up reel for easy record storage.
The TSP-40 acts as an event logging device providing a permanent history report of all MXL system activity. It can also be used to provide system status reports, including a listing of all smoke detector sensitivities and thresholds. It will also supply a listing of device analog voltages, device type and custom messages. The TSP-40 operates from the MXL’s main power and will continue to function if the MXL transfers to standby batteries. This battery-backed-up operation assures event logging during an AC power loss without the need for a UPS.
The TSP-40 uses thermal printer paper and can operate in both normal and compressed character modes. System events such as Alarm and Troubles are indented and printed in caps for easy identification. System reports are printed in compressed (80-character) mode. All events and reports are printed with the time and date. The MMB also performs a printer test at midnight each day.
