SIEMENS PMI Person-Machine Interface
INTRODUCTION
The Model PMI/PMI-INTL from Siemens Industry, Inc., is the user interface for
the FireFinder-XLS™ system. From the PMI/PMI-INTL the operator can acknowledge
events, control the system notification appliance circuits and reset the
system. Detailed information about the nature and location of events can also
be displayed.
The PMI is used as the primary user interface in CAB1, CAB2 or CAB3 enclosures. The PMI can also be used as a primary user interface in a remote REMBOX2 or REMBOX4 enclosure. The PMI-INTL is used as the primary or remote user interface in applications where French, Spanish or Portuguese is the primary language. They are identical in all other ways, and will be referred to in the remainder of this document as PMI. The PMI contains the site specific program as developed in Zeus. All system logic and supervision is provided by the controller in the PMI. The PMI contains a ¼ VGA monochrome LCD, Touch Screen and LEDs for displaying system status. An audible sounds when there are unac-knowledged events on the PMI. The display is surrounded by keys that are used to control the displayed information and to navigate through these screens. Keys are also provided to obtain help and to enter into the menu features of the PMI. (Refer to Figure 1.) On the back of the PMI there are additional diagnostic displays to aid in system troubleshooting. This is also where the PMI address is set and where the connection is made to Zeus for programming. (Refer to Figure 2.) A contrast pot is provided on the back of the PMI to adjust the LCD for the best visibility.For systems configured to provide Smoke Controk (UUKL), refer to the FireFinder XLS Control Panel System Manual, P/N 315-034853.
PRE-INSTALLATION
The PMI-INTL comes with French (Canadian) labels applied to the PMI. Labels in
three additional languages are also shipped with the PMI-INTL. To apply the
labels for an alternate language, first remove the French (Canadian) labels.
Then select the appropriate label—either English, Spanish, or Portuguese
(Brazilian), from the Power label kit, P/N 575-434249 and the Alarm label kit,
P/N 575-434218. Remove the backing from the labels and apply them to the PMI.
(Refer to Figure 3.) Discard the remaining labels.
DESCRIPTION OF PMI DIAGNOSTICS
| HNET | LED glows steady when a failure on the HNET network is detected. |
|---|---|
| XNET | LED glows steady when a failure on the XNET network is detected. |
| PMI-DAC | For future use. |
| PMI | LED flashes when a main processor failure occures in the PMI. |
| ADDRESS SWITCHES | Set to 253 by turning the pointers on each of the three |
dials to 2 – 5 – 3.
OPTIONS| Set switch 4 to ON for XNET. Set all other switches to OFF.
STATUS LED| Walking segments light to indicate normal operation. Error code is
displayed if an internal error is detected.
RESET SWITCH| Press to re-initialize the PMI.
CONTRAST POT| Turn to adjust the LCD for the best visibility.
DEBUG PORT| Factory use only.
HNET| HNET connection to laptop PC for network diagnostics.
UPLOAD| Connection to Zeus tool for transferring system configuration data.
NIM-1M| For future use.

INSTALLATION
Remove ELECTRICAL POWER prior to installing the PMI/PMI-INTL in the enclosure. Remove the PMI from its anti static bag. Set the three-digit network address using the 10-position rotary switches located on the back of the PMI. For HNET, set the PMI/PMI-INTL to 253. Make sure that the PMI is configured at this address in the Zeus physical view. When the PMI is used with XNET, the three-digit network address switch is used to set the XNET node address. In order to configure the PMI for XNET operation, first set position 4 of the options switch, S17, to ON. (Refer to Figure 2 for the location of the options switch.) Next set the XNET node address that has assigned in Zeus on the network address switches. Be sure to set all leading zeros. For example, Node 2 is set at 002. The MNET address of the PMI is automatically set to 253 when position 4 of S17 is in the ON position.
NOTE
Note the location of the contrast pot. Although the PMI comes from the factory
with the LCD contrast adjusted, this adjustment may not be proper for the
viewing angle of the LCD once it is installed in the enclosure. If the
contrast appears poor with the system powered, open the inner door and locate
the contrast pot on the lower edge of the PMI printed circuit board. Adjust
this pot until the LCD contrast is acceptable.
Make sure that all cables snap fully into their connectors and close the
locking levers over the top of each cable connector. Secure the cable in the
back box using cable ties and the tie down points in the enclosure. The cable
must have sufficient slack to allow the inner door to open fully without
putting stress on the cable.
OPERATION
In the normal standby condition, the PMI displays the site-specific custom
message, the time and date, and a synopsis of the system status.
When an event occurs in the system, the display enters Alert mode. The event
is displayed, the local audible sounds and the appropriate LED blinks. If the
event caused notification appliances to sound the Audibles On indicator
lights. At the bottom of the screen an acknowledge button is displayed.
Pressing this button acknowledges the event and silences the local audible.
Once all events are acknowledged a reset button becomes available in the lower
right side of the display. If notification appliances were active, two
additional buttons appear at the bottom of the screen. These allow the
operator to silence or unsilence the notification appliances. When the
notification appliances are silenced the Audibles Silenced LED lights. The
system can only be reset with the notification appliances silenced. If more
events are present in the system than can be displayed on a single screen a
scroll bar appears to the right of the event list. Pressing the up and down
navigation buttons to the right of the LCD allows the operator to move through
the list. The selected event is highlighted in the display. Pressing the More
Info button will display a screen showing details relating to the selected
event. Other buttons also appear at the bottom of this screen. There is an
expanded text message available and a selection to show all of the devices
associated with the event that are active. The operator can return to the
previous screen by pressing the ESC (-) button, which is adjacent to the More
Info button. (For more detail on PMI operation, refer to the FireFinder-XLS
Manual, P/N 315-033744.)
