Installation Instructions
3.1 Location & Mounting
The KGC-1200 should be installed in a centralized location, easy to access and
protected from environmental elements. A Mechanical room, Alarm Control Room,
or other similar areas are recommended.
Mounting holes are provided in the KGC-1200 case at the four corners. See
Figure 3-1. Choose an appropriate mounting location with space around the
panel for access to conduit entry holes provided on the top, bottom, and right
side of the panel.
3.2 Installation
3.2.1 General Wiring Information
WARNING
This equipment helps monitor the presence and concentration level of certain
specified airborne gases. Misuse may produce an inaccurate reading, which
means that higher levels of the gas being monitored may be present and could
result in overexposure. For proper use, see supervisor or User manual, or call
Kele Technical Service at
1-877-826-9045.
Field wiring is completed via modular connectors (provided), except for the
safety ground, AC power, and relays. After wiring, simply plug the modular
connectors into the matching connectors on the printed circuit board (PCB).
Note:
It is recommended to always install it with wires enclosed within the rigid
metallic conduit.
The power to the remotely mounted sensors should be size AWG18 (minimum) for
short runs. Refer to Table 3-1 for recommended wire gauges.
Wire Gauge | Maximum Run Length |
---|---|
(feet) | (meters) |
18 | 263 |
16 | 418 |
14 | 665 |
12 | 1058 |
Table 3-1 – Wire Gauge for run Length
Do not bundle sensor power or sensor signal connections with other AC power
cables to prevent electrical interference. If other AC power connections must
be bundled with the KGC-1200 sensor cables, the sensor connections should be
made with two twisted pairs of the appropriate gauge, with an overall foil and
braid shield. All shields should be terminated at the KGC-1200 end of the
cable only.
The power connections to the KGD-MODBUS and remote mounted sensors should be
size 18 AWG (minimum) for short runs. Refer to Table 3 1 for recommended wire
gauges. The power for the KGD-MODBUS adapter is connected via a two-terminal
screw type
connector, 12 to 24 VAC or 12 to 24 VDC and no polarity.
The KGD-MODBUS adapter output is wired in the standard 2W-Modbus circuit
definition with selectable built-in terminating resistors at the ends of the
RS-485 bus. It is recommended to always use twisted wires to reduce noise and
allow for reliable data communication over greater distances. For best
performance use shielded 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair providing a
pair for signal (A & B), common (COM) and shield ground (SHD) connections. Use
at least 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair providing a pair for signal (A
& B) and common (COM) connections. The Kele KGD-MODBUS Modbus output is
connected via a fourterminal screw type connector.
Running the Modbus cable adjacent to or in the same conduit with high voltage
wires is not recommended as there may be interference from the high voltages
near the bottom left corner of the panel.
3.2.2 Installation Diagram
3.2.3 Power Connection
The main power cable should be routed into the bottom left conduit entry.
Kele recommends a minimum wire size of 18 AWG and the wire insulator must be
rated for at least 140°F (60°C) service. The power connector will accept wire
from 12-24 AWG.
The safety ground wire should be connected to the terminal labeled as GND.
Connect the wires to the following terminals:
Signal | Connector Label | Pin Label |
---|---|---|
Line (120/220/240/250 VAC) | AC~ | L |
Neutral | AC~ | N |
Ground | AC~ | GND |
- The line, neutral and ground wires should be stripped 1/4 in. (6.5 mm).
- Press down the white button of the connector. You can use a flat-headed screwdriver for this.
- Insert the bare wire into the respective wire cavity of the connector. Refer Table 3-2.
- Release the white button.
- Ensure that the wire cannot be easily pulled from the connector.
Note: For ethernet connection, use surge protector (Model: DTK-MRJPOE
manufactured by DITEK) and connect one end of the surge protector to KGC-1200
ethernet connection.
Note: For the KGC-1200N Model, the ethernet port is not included and BACnet
output is not an option
3.2.4 Remote Sensor Connection
Remote sensors must be connected to the KGC-1200 at one of the three RS-485
connectors labeled “KGD-MODBUS DETECTOR CONNECTION”.
3.2.4.1 KGD-MODBUS Connection and Operation
The Kele KGD-MODBUS Adapter converts the Kele 6-Series 4-20mA analog output to
a digital output for use with the KGC-1200 and other addressable network
systems.
To install the KGD-MODBUS on a Kele 6-Series detector,
- Remove the 4-20mA/Power plug from the Kele 6-Series gas detector
- Plug the KGD-MODBUS adapter into the empty socket.
- Install the provided KGD-MODBUS screw.
Power connections to Kele sensors used with the KGC-1200 are polarity-
insensitive (no polarity) since a bridge rectifier is connected to the power
input terminals. All sensors used with the KGC-1200 panel employ screw clamp
terminal blocks for power and signal connections. The polarity of the current
loop connections is marked on the printed circuit board of the sensor.
The KGD-MODBUS will monitor the 4-20 mA current output of the detector. At
power up and during its warm-up period, the 6-Series detector will communicate
its sensor type over the 4-20 current output using a custom protocol. The KGD-
MODBUS will
automatically register each 6-Series detector as it is programmed with
information about all the detectors to which it can be connected. The KGD-
MODBUS will use this information to determine the gas level sensed by the
6-Series detector by measuring the 4-20 mA current-loop output during normal
operation of the detector.
When the LED is solid GREEN, the operation is normal, the KGD-MODBUS knows the
detector type, no errors are detected, and no MODBUS data are being received
or transmitted over the RS-485 line.
When the LED is GREEN with random bursts of AMBER, the operation is normal,
and data are being received or transmitted over the RS-485 line. The AMBER LED
will come on anytime that there is data traffic.
NOTE : After complete system installation, verify all sensors (verify
sensor address and sensor type) connected to the panel are detected by the
panel and there is not any trouble indication for any of the connected
detector.
3.2.4.2 Connection
The Kele KGD-MODBUS output is connected via a four-terminal screw type
connector. The KGD-MODBUS adapter is wired in the standard 2W-Modbus circuit
definition with selectable built-in terminating resistors at the ends of the
RS-485 bus. The power for the KGD-MODBUS adapter is connected via a two-
terminal screw type connector, 12 to 24 VAC or 12 to 24 VDC and no polarity.
NOTE: Running the Modbus cable adjacent to or in the same conduit with
high voltage wires is not recommended as there may be interference from the
high voltages. 3.2.4.3 Dip Switches and Addressing
Each KGD-MODBUS (and the detector it is connected to) must be configured to a
unique address. If there are 10 detectors on the serial line, then 10 unique
addresses must be used, one for each detector. To set the address, use the
eight DIP switch positions. For
each unit choose the value from 1 to 192 (see chart) and set the eight
switches to match the address. UP means ON or 1 and DOWN means OFF or 0. For
example, to configure a unit as address “50”, set switches “2, 5, 6” (see
Table 3-3) to ON or in the up position
(01001100).
NOTE: If KGD-6 is assigned address X and connected to KGC-1200, then address X
is assigned to NO2 Sensor (Type: 2) and address X+1 is assigned to CO Sensor
(Type: 1) by the panel.

3.2.4.4 Topology
An RS485-MODBUS (KGD-Modbus) configuration without repeater has one trunk
cable, along which devices are connected, directly (daisy chaining) or by
short derivation cables. The trunk cable, also named “Bus”, can be long. Its
two ends must be connected on “Line” Terminations. (See Section 3.2.4.5 Line
Termination – End of Line Resistor). The use of repeaters between several
RS485MODBUS is also possible.
The KGC-1200 has three Modbus termination blocks that will accept two trunk
cable connections allowing for two MODBUS communication lines.
The Trunk cable must be wired in parallel from the panel to the end of line
with no off shoots “T-tapping”.
3.2.4.5Line Termination – End of Line Resistor
The KGD-MODBUS and KGC-1200 are wired in the standard 2W-Modbus circuit
definition with selectable built-in terminating resistors at the ends of the
RS-485 bus. The KGD-MODBUS and KGC-1200 provide integral termination for the
end of line resistors
(EOL). The terminations use a 4-pin connector with a jumper to select
termination: The user selects no termination or one of the two Modbus line
termination options. The KGD-MODBUS and KGC-1200 have two-line termination
options (100 Ohm and 120 Ohm) available.
Place the EOL jumper on one of the following positions:
N = No termination (default)
2 = 120 ohm
1 = 100 ohm![Kele KGC-1200 Detection and Ventilation Control Panel with BACnet
- termination](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Kele-KGC-1200 -Detection-and-Ventilation-Control-Panel-with-BACnet-termination-550x245.png)
3.2.4.6 Baud Rate
At the baud rate of 19200 (default baud rate for Kele KGD-MODBUS and KGC-1200)
and with cables less than 1,000 ft. in length, termination resistors are not
recommended.
At the baud rate of 19200 and with cables longer than 1,000 ft., termination
resistors are recommended.
It is recommended to use an RS-485 type of cable and 120 ohms for termination
resistor.
An RS-485 network requires a 3-wire cable: a twisted pair and a third wire. It
is difficult to tell whether shielding is required or not in a particular
system until problems arise, so it is recommended to always use shielded
cable.
When using termination resistors use only 2 resistors, one at each end of the
RS-485 transmission line (i.e., 1 at the KGC-485B and 1 at the last/farthest
KGD-MODBUS).
For any other baud rates calculate when (at what length) termination resistors
are required. This is calculated by dividing the length L by the ratio between
the new baud rate and 19200 or (x/19200) where x is the new baud rate.
For example, if the new baud rate is 9600
Use termination resistors when cables are longer than 2000 ft.
For example, if the new baud rate is 38400
Use termination resistors when cables are longer than 500 ft.
NOTE: Other manufacturers may have different recommendations on wire length
and EOL resistor usage.
Figure 3-9 – MRS-485(KGD-Modbus): End of Line Resistor Diagram,
RS-484, 1000 feet or less
In Figure 3-9 above, the panel is depicted at a 19200 baud rate (default),
1000 ft or less, and using RS-485 or Cat-5 type cable
In Figure 3-10 above, the panel is depicted at a 19200 baud rate (default),
more than 1000 ft, and using RS-485 type cable. The jumper is shown at 100
ohms resistor configuration, but the 120 ohms configuration can also be used,
which is position 2.
3.2.4.7 Wire Selection
For best performance, use shielded 3-conductor wire with one twisted pair
providing a pair for signal (A & B), common (COM) and shield ground (SHD)
connections.
For the balanced pairs used in an RS485 system, wire with a characteristic
impedance of higher than 100 Ohms may be preferred, especially for 19200 and
higher baud rates.
3.2.4.8 Wire Length
For the RS485-MODBUS, the wire gauge must be chosen sufficiently wide to
permit the maximum length (1000 m or 3281ft). 24 AWG is always enough for the
MODBUS Data. The modular RS-485 connector will accept wire from 16 to 28 AWG.
The wire nsulator must be rated for at least 140°F (60°C). Category 5 cables
may operate for RS485-MODBUS, to a maximum length of 600 m 1968.5 ft.
The maximum length of the trunk cable depends on the
- baud rate
- cable (gauge, capacitance, or characteristic impedance)
- number of loads on the daisy chain
- network configuration (2-wire)
For a maximum 9600 Baud Rate and 26 AWG (or wider) gauge, the maximum length
is 1000m (3281ft). The derivations must be short, never more than 20m
(65.5ft). If a multi-port tap is used with n derivations, each one must
respect a maximum length of 40m (131ft) divided by n.
3.2.4.9 Grounding
The Common Circuit (COM) must be connected directly to protective ground,
preferably at one point only for the entire bus. The shield should be
connected to each detector at the SHD terminal and connected to a ground
terminal or chassis only at one end of the bus.
3.2.4.10 External Power Supply
Select a UL Listed NEC Class 2 power supply which can power the KGD-MODBUS
units connected to 6-Series detectors.
To determine the required minimum power supply,
- Each KGD-MODBUS connected with a detector is rated at 3.25W.
- The minimum power which the power supply needs to deliver for 12 detectors is figured as: 12 detectors x 3.25 W per detector = 39W
- Therefore, a 24VDC, 60W power supply will work.
3.2.4.11 Power Wire
All field wiring is completed via modular connectors (provided). After wiring,
simply plug the modular connectors into the matching connectors on the KGD-
MODBUS. The power connections to the remotely mounted detectors should be size
18 AWG (minimum) for short runs. Since Kele detectors are rated for operation
between 12 and 24 VDC or VAC, the voltage drop between the power supply and
the KGD-MODBUS should not be an issue if the recommended power wire gauge
guidelines are followed.
The terminals will accept wire from 16 to 28 AWG. To install a wire, strip
back approximately 0.25 in. (6 mm) of insulation and insert the bare wire into
the terminal. Tighten the screw clamp and ensure that the wire cannot be
easily pulled from the connector.
3.2.4.12 4-20mA Connection
There are three 4-20mA output modular connectors. The wire terminals for the
three 4-20 mA connectors are available at the connector labeled “4-20mA O/P”.
The connector accepts wires from 16 to 28 AWG. Refer to Figure 3-4 for
details.
3.2.4.13 Relay Connection
The wire terminals for the four onboard relays are available at the connectors
labeled “R1”, “R2”, “R3”, and “R4”. The wire terminals for the optional
expansion relays are available at the connectors labeled “R5”, “R6”, “R7”, and
“R8”.
Each relay will be wired to be either normally open (NO) or normally closed
(NC). There is no polarity for these connections. Each terminal can
accommodate a wire size from 12 to 24 AWG.
Connect one wire to the COM terminal. For normally open (NO) configuration,
connect the other wire to the NO terminal. For normally closed (NC)
configuration, connect the other wire to the NC terminal.
To connect wires to the relay terminals,
- Strip each wire back 1/4 in. (6.5 mm).
- Press down the white button of the connector.
- Insert the bare wire into the wire cavity of the connector.
- Release the white button.
- Ensure that the wire cannot be easily pulled from the connector.
3.2.5 Remote Device Connection
In addition to the onboard relays (four standard and four optional), the
KGC-1200 can be connected to four additional Remote Devices. Each remote
device can be configured with 4 expansion boards that include a combination of
Expansion Relay Board: 2
SDPT, Expansion Analog Input Board: 4 Analog Inputs and Expansion Analog
Output Board: 2 Analog Outputs.
The Remote Devices can be wired directly into the trunk cable of a new or
existing Modbus communication line.
3.2.5.1 Remote Device (RD-24) Mounting
Kele RD-24 is shipped with mounting screws, and the enclosure provides pre-
determined mounting locations, with one screw in each corner. RD-24 should be
mounted with sufficient space around the enclosure to allow for ease of
opening enclosure door, as well as wiring access.
3.2.5.2 Remote Device (RD-24) Wiring
All the connectors in RD-24 are spring tightening and will accept wire from 14
to 24 AWG. To connect the wires to terminals, press down the white button of
the connector (use flat-headed screwdriver), insert bare wire into respective
wire cavity of the connector
and release the white button. Ensure that the wire cannot be easily pulled
from the connector. Refer to Figure 3-2 – below for location of different
connectors in RD-24. *The Analog Input board has 4 screw terminal connectors.
The power connections to the RD-24 should be size AWG18 (minimum) for short
runs. For the longer run follow recommended power wire gauge guidelines. Match
the polarity for power connection.
For RS-485 or communication connection it is recommended to always use a
twisted wire to reduce noise and allow for reliable data communication over
greater distances. For best performance use shielded 3-conductor wire with one
twisted pair providing a pair for signal (A & B), common (COM) and shield
ground (SHD) connection.
NOTE: Running the RS-485 cable adjacent to or in the same conduit with
high voltage wires is not recommended as there may be interference from the
high voltages.
RD-24 provides integral termination for end of line resistors (EOL). The
termination uses a 4-pin connector (labeled J8) to select termination. Place
the EOL jumper on one of the following positions:
- NU = No termination (default)
- 120 = 120 Ohm
- 100 = 100 Ohm
3.2.6 Remote Device Operation
Power LED will light up green to indicate the unit is operational. TX LED will
flash blue to indicate the unit is communicating with KGC-1200. Slot 1,2,3,4
LED will light up green when corresponding expansion board is in use. Refer to
Figure above for location of Slots 1 through 4.
3.2.6.1 Changing RD-24 Settings
The DIP switches are used to set the Modbus address and are also used to
change the communication settings. Valid Modbus addresses for RD-24 are from
193 to 200 where switch 1 is the least significant bit (LSB) and switch 8 is
the most significant bit (MSB). Address 254 is used to place the RD-24 in
programming mode. Address 255 is used to refresh the configuration of the
RD-24.
3.2.6.2 Programming Mode
When the RD-24 is powered with address set to 254, it enters programming mode.
The STATUS LED will be flashing RED and GREEN alternatively every 200
milliseconds to indicate that RD-24 is ready and waiting for the user to enter
new communication settings using 8 dip switches. Using the 8 dip switches, use
can change the communication settings like baud rate and parity.
When looking at the switches with “Address” marking on top, the switches are defined from left to right.
- Switch 8, switch 7 and switch 6 are used to modify baud rate
- Switch 5 and switch 4 are used to modify parity
- Switch 1 is used to request to save the new settings
- Switches 3 and 2 are unused and should be left in the ON position.
Switch 8| Switch 7| Switch 6| Description
---|---|---|---
OFF| OFF| OFF| Default baud rate (19200 Bd)
OFF| OFF| ON| 4800 Bd
OFF| ON| OFF| 9600Bd
OFF| ON| ON| 19200 Bd (Default value)
ON| OFF| OFF| 38400 Bd
ON| OFF| ON| 57600 Bd

Switch 5 | Switch 4 | Description |
---|---|---|
OFF | OFF | Default Parity EVEN (Default Value) |
OFF | ON | Parity is ODD |
ON | OFF | Parity is NONE |
ON | ON | Do not change |
Table 3-5 – Parity Configuration
Set the switches to the desired value and then set switch 1 to ON and then
OFF, and the new settings will be saved in EEPROM.
The result of saving operation is displayed on STATUS LED. Alternating
GREEN/OFF every 200 milliseconds indicates saving new settings passed and
alternating RED/OFF every 200 milliseconds indicates that saving new settings
failed. Once the new settings
have passed, disconnect power from the unit, set the address for the device
using the address switches and apply power back to unit.
3.2.6.3 Configuration Refresh
Upon initial installation, or when the user would like to change the RD-24
configuration (move, swap, or change expansion board type or locations), the
following process must be followed. Before making any changes, power off the
RD-24. Next, make the preferred changes to the RD-24 configuration. After, set
the dip switch address to 255 and power on the RD-24 for at least 3 seconds.
The LED below the dip switch should blink green rapidly. After at least 3
seconds, power off the RD-24. Using the dip switch, change the address back to
its original setting, or a number between 193 and 200. Power on the RD-24.
Last, navigate in the KGC-1200 menu CONFIGURE SYSTEM
?MANUAL CONFIGURE
?CONFIG. RLYS,SIGNALS,SENSORS,REM. DEV.
?REMOTE DEVICES. Select the Remote Device and
delete it from the KGC-1200. If the RD-24 is still powered on, the KGC-1200
will automatically find it, and update the configuration. If the KGC-1200 does
not find the device after 60 seconds, power cycle the panel and check again.
3.2.7 Horn & Strobe Connection
There are four connection terminals for horns and strobes. The modular
connectors are located at the top left of the board and are labeled
“Horn/Strobe”.
Refer to Table 3 4 for recommended wire gauge vs. run length for the horn &
strobe functions (maximum 2.5-volt drop in the wire).
The horn & strobe circuits are Class 2 control circuits, so Class 2 conductors
should be used.
Wire gauge | Maximum run Length |
---|---|
(feet) | (meters) |

indicated by the two-letter abbreviation for the gas type of the sensor.
If a horn/strobe is assigned to the group, it will be indicated by H/Sx where
“x” is the horn/strobe number. Similarly, if a relay is assigned to the group,
it will be indicated by Rx where “x” is the relay number.
Lastly, the status of each zone is displayed. In normal operating conditions,
it will show “NORMAL”. If a sensor in the zone is indicating a gas level that
is greater than the alarm or warning levels, the zone status will show “ALARM”
or “WARNING” as appropriate. If any of the sensors assigned to the zone goes
into trouble, then the status of the zone in the main screen is updated with
‘TROUBLE’.
NOTE : If a sensor is part of final system installation and needs to be
monitored, it must be assigned to a zone.
4.4 ALARM, WARNING, and TROUBLE Status Display
If an alarm, warning, or trouble event occurs, the display will automatically
switch to the corresponding screen. If multiple events occur simultaneously,
the display will only show the event with higher priority. The event priority
is (from highest to lowest) LARM, GAS WARNING, TROUBLE.
ALARM Status Display
When any sensor indicates a gas level that is at or above the configured alarm
level for the sensor, the panel will enter ALARM mode, during which the
internal buzzer will sound, the WARNING/ALARM LED will be red, and the display
will switch to the ALARM
status display.
The top left box will have ALARM highlighted.
If the sensor in alarm is assigned to any of the zones, then status of the
zone is updated to indicate ALARM in the middle box of the display.
The bottom box will cycle through all sensors that are in alarm, at five
seconds per display. It will display sensor address, gas type, zone number (if
assigned to a zone) and corresponding gas reading.
WARNING
Immediately exit any environment that causes an alarm condition on the sensor.
If an external horn and/or strobe are connected and configured to signal an
alarm condition, they will also sound when an alarm condition occurs, after a
delay if that configuration option is used.
When the HUSH key is pressed, the internal buzzer will be silenced for five
(5) minutes. HUSH key must be held for three (3) seconds to silence the horn
and strobe.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that alarms have
been silenced for five minutes. After any key is pressed (or five seconds),
the display will return to normal mode and HUSH led will light up steady red.
If a relay is configured as an alarm relay, it will be turned on when an alarm
condition is recognized.
4.4.1 Warning Status Display
When any sensor indicates a gas level that is at or above the configured
warning level for the sensor, the panel will enter WARNING mode during which
the internal buzzer will sound, the WARNING/ALARM status LED will be amber,
and the display will switch to the WARNING status display.
The top left box will have WARNING highlighted.
If the sensor in the warning is assigned to any of the zones, then the status
of the zone is updated to indicate WARNING in the middle box of the display.
The bottom box will cycle through all sensors that are in warning, at five
seconds per display. It will display sensor address, gas type, zone number (if
assigned to a zone) and corresponding gas reading.
If the buzzer and/or an external horn and/or external strobe are connected and
configured to signal a warning condition, they will also sound when a warning
condition occurs. There is a configurable delay before the horn or strobe will
sound.
When the HUSH key is pressed, the internal buzzer will be silenced for fifteen
(15) minutes. The HUSH key must be held for three (3) seconds to silence the
horn and strobe.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that warnings
have been silenced for fifteen minutes. After any key is pressed (or five
seconds) the display will return to normal mode and hush led will light up
steady red.
4.4.2 Trouble Status Display
If a sensor fails, a connection is lost or the panel itself detects a failure
of its own, the panel will enter TROUBLE mode during which the internal buzzer
will sound, the POWER/TROUBLE LED will be red, and the display will switch to
the trouble status display.
The top left box will have TROUBLE highlighted.
If the sensor in trouble is assigned to any of the zones, then the status of
the zone is updated to indicate TROUBLE in the middle box of the display.
The bottom box will cycle through all sensors that are in trouble, at five
seconds per display. It will display sensor address, gas type, zone number (if
assigned to a zone) and corresponding trouble description.
Possible trouble conditions are:
- Any configured channel has less than 4 mA flowing in the current loop.
- A sensor is reporting a trouble condition.
- Any configured channel wiring is open or shorted.
- Internal controller board problems are detected.
If an external horn and/or strobe are connected and configured to signal a
trouble condition, they will also sound when a trouble condition occurs, after
a delay, if that configuration option is selected.
When the HUSH key is pressed, the internal buzzer will be silenced for eight
(8) hours. HUSH key must be held for three (3) seconds to silence the horn and
strobe.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that trouble
indications have been silenced for eight hours. After any key is pressed (or
five seconds), the display will return to normal mode and the hush led will
light up steady red.
4.4.3 Unoccupied Failure Display
When Title 24 is enabled, during unoccupied time, KGC-1200 compares the
readings of all CO detectors connected (irrespective of assigned zones), and
if any CO detector is more than 15 ppm above or below the average of all CO
detectors for longer than 4 hours, the detector has failed. This failure is
referred to as unoccupied failure in the rest of the manual. Refer to “Section
4.6.3.5 for process to define occupied time. Time outside the defined occupied
time is unoccupied time.
If there is unoccupied sensor failure, the panel will enter ALARM mode during
which the internal buzzer will sound, the ALARM/WARNING LED will be red, and
the display will switch to the ALARM status display. Any outputs assigned to
alarm condition will be triggered. Figure 4-6 shows an example of KGC-1200
display during unoccupied failure. “FAIL – UNOCC.” on the screen indicates
unoccupied failure.
KGC-1200 displays the address of the unoccupied failure detector. If there is
more than one unoccupied failure detector, then display scrolls every 5
seconds to display all unoccupied failure detectors.
If unoccupied failure sensor is part of a zone (Zone 2 in above figure), then
the status of the zone will be updated to ALARM and all outputs assigned to
that zone will get activated. If 4-20mA output is assigned to the zone with
unoccupied failure sensor, then its
output will be 20mA. When the HUSH key is pressed and held for 5 seconds, the
internal buzzer will be silenced for 4 hours. If the horn or strobe turn on
delays have not finished, then they will also be silenced.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that unoccupied
failure indications have been silenced for four hours and the display will
return to normal mode. In VIEW SENSOR screen, sensors with unoccupied failure
silenced will display “FAILED UNOCCUPIED” alternating with current gas
reading.
4.4.4 Occupied Failure Display
When Title 24 is enabled, during occupied time, KGC-1200 compares the readings
of all CO detectors assigned to a zone, and if any CO detector is more than
15ppm above or below the 30-minute rolling average of all CO detectors
assigned to the corresponding
zone, then the detector has failed. This failure is referred to as occupied
failure in the rest of the manual. Refer to “Section 4.6.3.5 for process to
define occupied time.
If there is occupied sensor failure, the panel will enter ALARM mode during
which the internal buzzer will sound, the ALARM/WARNING LED will be red, and
the display will switch to the ALARM status display. Any outputs assigned to
alarm condition will be triggered. Figure 4-7 shows an example of KGC-1200
display during unoccupied failure. “FAIL – OCC.” on the screen indicates
occupied failure.
KGC-1200 displays the address of the occupied failure detector. If there is
more than one occupied failure detector, then display scrolls every 5 seconds
to display all occupied failure detectors.
The status of the zone with occupied failure sensor will be updated to ALARM
and all outputs assigned to that zone will be activated.
If 4-20mA output is assigned to the zone with occupied failure sensor, then
its output will be 20mA.
When the HUSH key is pressed and held for 5 seconds, the internal buzzer will
be silenced for 5 minutes. If the horn or strobe turn on delays have not
finished, then they will also be silenced.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that occupied
failure indications have been silenced for 5 minutes and the display will
return to normal mode. In VIEW SENSOR screen, sensors with occupied failure
silenced will display “FAILED OCCUPIED” alternating with current gas reading.
4.4.5 Calibration Due Warning Display
When there are up to 30 days until calibration for any carbon monoxide sensors
connected, panel will trigger Calibration Due Warning. Calibration Due Warning
has lower priority than gas warning. This feature is applicable only for
carbon monoxide detectors
with calibration period feature with Title 24 feature enabled in KGC-1200.
KGC-1200 displays the address of the detector with calibration due warning. If
there is more than one detector with calibration due warning, then display
scrolls every 5 seconds to display all detectors with calibration due warning.
If there is a carbon monoxide sensor with calibration due warning, the panel
will enter WARNING mode during which the internal buzzer will sound, the
ALARM/WARNING LED will be amber, and the display will switch to the WARNING
status display. Any outputs assigned to warning condition will be triggered.
When the HUSH key is pressed and held for 5 seconds, the internal buzzer and horn/strobe will be silenced. Silence period is dependent on time left to calibration. The following table shows silence period for different time to calibration.
Time till Calibration | Silence Period |
---|---|
>14 days, and <30 days | 14 days |
>7 days, and <14 days | 7 days |
< 7 days | 1 day |
Table 4-2 – Calibration Due Silence Period
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that calibration
due warning indication have been silenced for corresponding silence period.
After approximately 5 seconds the display will return to normal mode. Only a
calibration due warning with lower silence interval (refer Table 4-2) or
calibration due warning from new sensor will reset the HUSH and panel will go
back to state indicating Calibration Due Warning.
When in normal display mode, for detectors with Calibration Due Warning
silenced, panel will display current gas reading alternating with “CALIBRATION
DUE” in VIEW SENSOR screen for the corresponding sensor.
4.4.6 Calibration Overdue Trouble Display
When the panel detects a carbon monoxide sensor with Calibration Overdue
condition it will go into trouble state. This trouble has higher priority than
a regular trouble condition. This feature is applicable only for carbon
monoxide detectors with calibration period feature with Title 24 featured
enabled in KGC-1200.KGC-1200 displays the address of the detector with
calibration overdue trouble.
If there is more than one carbon monoxide sensor with calibration overdue
condition or are sensors in trouble due to other conditions, then display
scrolls every 5 seconds to display all detectors with the trouble condition.
During Calibration Overdue trouble, the trouble LED will be ON (the
POWER/TROUBLE LED will be red), and the display will switch to the TROUBLE
status display. Any outputs assigned to trouble condition will be triggered.
The status of the zone with calibration overdue carbon monoxide sensor will be
updated to TROUBLE and all outputs assigned to that zone will get activated.
If 4-20mA output is assigned to the zone with calibration overdue sensor, then
its output will be 20mA.
When the HUSH key is pressed and held for 5 seconds, the internal buzzer will
be silenced for 15 minutes. If the horn or strobe turn on delays have not
finished, then they will also be silenced for 15 minutes.
When all indicators have been silenced, the display will show that calibration
overdue trouble indication have been silenced for 15 minutes. After
approximately 5 seconds the display will return to normal mode.
When in normal display mode, for detectors with calibration overdue trouble
silenced panel will display “CALIBRATION REQUIRED” in VIEW SENSOR screen for
the corresponding sensor.
4.5 Ventilation Control
The ventilation control function operates independently from the alarm
function. It provides the ability to configure the KGC-1200 for control of up
to 8 zones. Each zone can be configured to control relays and an external horn
and strobe if desired.
When more than one zone is controlling a relay, it only takes one zone to
activate the relay, but all controlling zones must release the relay before it
turns off. Each of the relays, horn, and strobe has independent turn-on delays
(to ignore short duration, transient
gas signals) and turn off delays (to ensure minimum run times for fans that
must run for internal cooling).
A VFD may be enabled and controlled by the KGC-1200 output relays or the
KGC-1200 4-20mA output. This allows an operator to change fixed speeds for a
VFD if it is used as a stand-alone control.
Here is an example of an application where VFD is controlling the speed of a
fan: An operator can close relay 1, 2, or 3 to set the fan speed. If relay 1
is closed, the VFD will operate at 50%, If relay 2 is closed, the VFD will
operate 75%, If relay 3 is closed, the VFD will operate at 100%.
Each zone can respond to gas levels indicated by one or more of the sensors,
with configurable turn on and turn off concentrations (rising and falling) for
each gas type.
For example, each zone can be configured to monitor a separate set of four
sensors and control a single relay.
A single sensor may be assigned to multiple zones if desired. Here is an
example of a control scheme which has single sensors assigned to multiple
zones:
- One zone monitors all sensors and turns one relay on at a low gas concentration.
- A second zone monitors the same sensors and turns on a second relay if the gas concentration reaches a higher level.
- A third zone also monitors the same sensors and turns on the last relay as a signaling device to a live monitor station, as well as turning on an external horn and strobe.
In addition to controlling the relays based on the gas concentration, each
zone can have a timed function, e.g., turn on low volumeventilation fans at
7:00 AM and turn them off at 8:00 PM.

able to be added to the zone configuration and vice-versa. In the example
below, H/S 1 has already been assigned as a dedicated alarm. Attempting to add
it to the Zone 1 configuration results in an error message. Similarly, if a
Horn/Strobe is assigned to a zone then it cannot be assigned to alarm,
warning, or trouble. 4.6.2.4 GROUP CONFIG.
Menu path: Main Menu–>CONFIGURE SYSTEM –>MANUAL CONFIGURE –>CONFIGURE ZONES
–>ADD/EDIT ZONES–>GROUP CONFIG. –>
Each group of sensors can be configured with settings unique to each zone.
For example, Group 1 sensors (CO gas) ALARM could be set to 200 ppm in Zone 1
and 100 ppm in Zone 2.
To configure the sensor groups within each zone, select GROUP CONFIG. from the
zone configuration menu and press ENTER. To view or change values for a sensor
type, select SENSOR TYPE and press ENTER.
Then, enter the valid sensor type (displayed in bottom box)
of the group to view and press ENTER. Once a valid sensor type has been
entered, the current values for that sensor type or group of sensors in that
zone will be displayed as shown below. To change the
values, select the menu item and press ENTER. Then, key in the new value and
press ENTER. For NO2 and O2 sensor press RIGHT key to add a decimal point
after a value. E.g., to enter value 3.2, enter 3 press RIGHT key and then
enter 2. Panel will display a message if an invalid value is entered. Values
entered cannot be larger than range of the detector, rising value must be
equal or greater than Falling value, and Alarm value must be equal or greater
than Warning. Refer to Table 4-2 for default values for each field or menu
item.
The following options are available for GROUP CONFIGURATION:
-
RISING – If the gas concentration is greater than or equal to this level, the zone output(s) will be turned on.
-
FALLING – If the gas concentration is less than or equal to this level, the zone output(s) will be turned off.
-
WARNING – The gas concentration used to trigger a warning status for the group of sensors within the zone. Setting a warning level of 0 (zero) will disable warning detection for this sensor.
-
ALARM – The gas concentration used to trigger an alarm status for the group of sensors within the zone. Setting an alarm level of 0 (zero) will disable alarm detection for this sensor.
-
MODE – When multiple sensors are being monitored by a group, the output decision can be based on either voting, or the average of all sensors in the group. Valid modes are AVERAGE or VOTING (default). The bottom box in the LCD displays the
current Mode used for the group (or sensor type). -
AVERAGE: The gas concentrations from all sensors (of same type) in the group in a zone are averaged and
-
If the average is greater than or equal to the rising trip point, the zone outputs(s) are activated.
-
If the average is less than or equal to the falling trip point, the zone output(s) are de-activated.
-
If the average is between the two trip points, the outputs remain in their previous state.
-
VOTING: The number of sensors (of same type) in the group indicating a value greater than or equal to the rising trip point is counted.
-
If the count is greater than or equal to the QUORUM, then the zone output(s) are activated.
-
For zone outputs to be deactivated first the count of sensors (of same type) with value greater than or equal to the rising trip point should be less than quorum value and count of sensors (of same type) with value less than or equal to the falling trip point should be greater than or equal to the quorum.
NOTE : Activating the output(s) is given priority if there is an equal number of sensors (of same type) with gas readings greater than or equal to the rising trip point and sensors (of same type) with readings less than or equal to the falling trip point. -
QUORUM: It is up to the installer to ensure that the quorum entry is appropriate for the configuration. A value greater than the number of sensors being monitored by the group stops the group from controlling the outputs. The default quorum value is 1. Select Quorum and hit Enter after Selecting Voting to change the quorum to values other than default value of 1.
The default sensor types and settings are as follows: Description| Carbon Monoxide| Nitrogen Dioxide| Combustibl e Gas| Ammonia| Hydroge n Sulfide| Refrigerants| Carbon Dioxide
(Type: 9)
| Oxygen Depletion| Oxygen Enrichment| Carbon Dioxide
(Type 10)
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---
Type| CO| NO2| EX| NH3| H2S| REF| CO2| O2| O2| CO2 (G)
Range| 200 ppm| 20 ppm| 50% LEL| 100 ppm| 50 ppm| 1,000 ppm| 5,000 ppm|
25% v/v| 25.0% v/v| 5.00% v/v
Alarm Level| 200 ppm| 5 ppm| 20% LEL| 75 ppm| 20 ppm| 300 ppm| 4,000
ppm| 19.5% v/v| 23.5% v/v| 3.00% v/v
Warning Level| 100 ppm| 2.5 ppm| 15% LEL| 50 ppm| 15 ppm| 200 ppm|
3,000 ppm| 20.0% v/v| 22.5% v/v| 1.00% v/v
Rising Level| 35 ppm| 2.5 ppm| 10% LEL| 25 ppm| 8 ppm| 100 ppm| 1,000
ppm| 20.3% v/v| 22.0% v/v| 0.10% v/v
Falling Level| 15 ppm| 1.2 ppm| 5% LEL| 10 ppm| 3 ppm| 50 ppm| 800 ppm|
20.6% v/v| 21.5% v/v| 0..08% v/v
*The GROUP CONFIG. menu for Oxygen (SENSOR TYPE 8) has an additional option “O2 MODE” with available options: DEPLETION, ENHANCEMENT, BOTH. The Oxygen sensor can be configured to signal for:
-
High gas levels (ENHANCEMENT)
Values equal to or greater than 20.9% v/v are only valid for Enhancement settings (Rising, Falling, Warning and Alarm). -
Low gas levels (DEPLETION)
Values equal to or less than 20.9% v/v are only valid for Depletion settings (Rising, Falling, Warning and Alarm). -
High and low gas levels (BOTH)
If “BOTH” is selected for O2 mode, then the panel will signal alarm, warning
or zone activation for both oxygen depletion and enhancement. E.g., with
default settings as indicated in Table 4-2 panel will indicate alarm condition
for oxygen sensor reading of
less than or equal to 19.5% vol as well as reading greater than or equal to
23.5% vol if “BOTH” is selected for O2 Mode. Whereas if “DEPLETION” mode is
selected then panel will indicate alarm condition for reading less than or
equal to 19.5% vol only and similarly if “ENHANCEMENT” mode is selected then
panel will indicate alarm condition for reading greater than or equal to 23.5%
vol only.
4.6.2.5 4-20mA OUTPUT or Analog Output
Menu path: Main Menu–>CONFIGURE SYSTEM –>MANUAL CONFIGURE –>CONFIGURE ZONES
–>ADD/EDIT ZONES–>4-20MA OUTPUT: –>
To assign 4-20mA output to a zone, select “4-20MA OUTPUT:” from the zone
configuration menu and press ENTER. Then select “OUTPUT NUMBER:” and press
ENTER.
Input the
4-20mA output number to assign it to the zone. Valid entries are 1, 2 and 3
and press ENTER. The display will return to the 4-20 O/P menu screen and show
the currently assigned 4-20 mA output in the OUTPUT NUMBER field.
NOTE: A zone can be assigned only one 4-20mA output, and a 4-20mA output
can only be assigned to one zone. 4-20mA output once assigned to a zone can be
deleted or reassigned to a different zone.
NOTE: Oxygen sensor readings are an exclusion for 4-20mA output i.e., its
reading is not considered while computing output value for 4-20mA output.
Next, the output mode can be set to PEAK or SCALE.
PEAK – In this mode the gas reading active in the zone (except for the oxygen)
corresponding to highest mA output is used to control the analog output
assigned to the specific zone. In this case, any active gas reading, that is
part of the zone will be taken in consideration, and the sensor reading
corresponding to highest mA output will be used to control the analog output.
E.g. If a CO and NO2 sensor is assigned to a zone and CO Sensor reading is
50ppm (which corresponds to 8mA) and NO2 sensor reading is 10.0ppm (which
corresponds to 12mA) then 4-20mA or Analog output assigned to the zone will
output 12mA.
SCALE – In this mode, the 4-20mA value for all detectors added to a zone are
computed (for all sensor types except oxygen), and the output is the average
of the 4-20mA value for all detectors assigned to the zone. E.g. If a CO and
NO2 sensor is assigned to a zone and CO Sensor reading is 50ppm (which
corresponds to 8mA) and NO2 sensor reading is 10.0ppm (which corresponds to
12mA) then 4-20mA or Analog output assigned to the zone will output 10mA.
To select the output mode for 4-20mA output, select OUTPUT MODE from the 4-20
O/P menu and press ENTER. Then, select PEAK or SCALE from the 4-20 O/P MODE
menu and press ENTER. The display will return to the 4-20 O/P menu and the
output mode selection will be updated as shown in Figure 4-31.
When the status of the zone is TROUBLE then 4-20mA output assigned to
corresponding zone will switch the output to 20mA.

Fail Safe operation can be implemented byconfiguring a relay to operate Normally ON and wiring the circuit using the NC (normally closed) contact. In this way, if the control panel loses power the relay will activate the controlled device if it still has power.
-
DELAY – Sets a delay between when conditions to activate the relay occur and when the relay activates. The time format is:
[mm: ss]. The default delay time is 00:00. Highlight this sub-menu and press Enter to enter the delay for the selected relay. -
MIN RUNTIME – Sets the minimum runtime once a relay is activated. The time format is: [mm: ss]. Default value is 00:00.
Highlight this sub-menu and press Enter to enter the minimum run time value for the selected relay. -
SET – The user must select SET to save the changes. The changes will become active as soon as the user selects SET.
ASSIGN ALARM RELAY
The user can assign a single relay to activate when an alarm condition occurs
(regardless of zone). A relay assigned to ALARM will be dedicated to ALARM
only and will not be shared with zones.
To assign a relay to ALARM, follow the menu as shown in Figure X. If any of
the relay was assigned for Alarm, then it would be displayed in sub-menu
“ASSIGN ALARM RELAY:”.
In the example below, relay 1 is assigned for the ALARM relay. After pressing ENTER, the display shows confirmation of the relay status. Enter “0” to set no relay as the alarm relay.
4.6.3.2 CONFIGURE REMOTE DEVICES
Menu path: Main Menu–>CONFIGURE SYSTEM –>MANUAL CONFIGURE –> CONFIG. RLYS,

To view or delete Remote Devices, follow the menu as shown in the images
below. The user must first assign an appropriate address to the remote device
and connect it to the KGC-1200 panel through an RS-485 connection.
Once
the system has found one or more remote devices, the screen shown in Figure
4-38 displays the remote device type and address. If the KGC-1200 does not
find any remote device, it will display NO REMOTE DEVICE FOUND. In this case
it is recommended
to verify KGC-1200 and remote device communication settings and ensure wiring
into RS-485 communications is correct.
After successful remote device discovery, the user can enter the configuration menu for a specific remote device. Within the configuration menu, the user can edit fail/safe settings or delete the remote device from the KGC-1200. Fail/Safe settings can be used to provide a specific output on the remote device when it is disconnected from the KGC-1200 for a predetermined amount of time. Also, it is important to note that when a remote device has been deleted from the panel, it will be rediscovered by the panel in a short time, unless it has been disconnected via the RS-485 wiring or powered off. Further, in the bottom pane of the display window, for RD-24 only, the slot configuration is displayed. From there, the user can verify that the KGC-1200 is recognized as the correct RD-24 configuration. If the correct configuration is not displayed, delete the RD-24 from the KGC-1200 and allow the KGC1200 to discover it again. Refer to the figure below for a representation of an RD-24 configuration menu.
Following additional fail-safe settings are available for Remote Relay Configuration.
-
FAIL SAFE ACTIVE/NOT ACTIVE
With this setting one can either enable (FAIL SAFE ACTIVE) or disable (FAIL SAFE NOT ACTIVE) fail safe operation for corresponding remote relay. -
FAIL SAFE STATE ON or OFF
This setting defines the state of the relay during fail safe condition if fail-safe settings are active or enabled. -
FAIL SAFE TIMEOUT (s)
This is the time (in seconds) that the remote relay must wait for communication from the KGC-1200 before going into failsafe mode if fail-safe setting is active (ON).
Valid entries are 10 to 3600 seconds.
To change the corresponding setting, highlight the line and hit Enter. Select
the desired settings and hit Enter again. Once the desired configuration is
selected for all fail-safe settings hit SAVE to save the settings and transfer
the settings to remote relay.
Repeat the assignment procedure for second remote relay.
To configure Relays 9 to 12 for regular settings (delay, minimum run time
etc.) use CONFIGURE RELAY menu. Once remote relay is discovered and assigned
then only corresponding relay number (9,10,11 and 12) will be valid entries
for CONFIGURE RELAY menu.

4.6.3.5 TITLE 24
Menu path: Main Menu–>CONFIGURE SYSTEM –>MANUAL CONFIGURE –>TITLE 24 –>
The figure above shows the Title 24 menu screen in KGC-1200. KGC-1200 features like occupied failure, unoccupied failure, calibration due and calibration overdue are enabled only when Title 24 is enabled in KGC-1200. By default, the Title 24 feature for the KGC-1200 is disabled. To enable Title 24, select line with TITLE 24 and press Enter, then select “Enable” and hit Enter.
By default, weekdays (Monday to Friday) 8 AM to 5 PM is configured as occupied time. Use “WEEKDAY START/STOP TIMES” and “WEEKEND START/STOP TIMES” to modify occupied period during weekday and weekend respectively. Up to two occupied periods can be defined for weekday and weekend. KGC-1200 validates that Start Time is earlier than the End Time i.e., 9:15 AM as Start Time and 1:00 PM as End Time is a valid entry, but 10:00 PM as Start Time and 3:00 AM as End Time is invalid entry because 3:00 AM is earlier event in a day in comparison to 10:00 PM.
Time period outside of defined occupied period is considered as unoccupied
time. Using “OCCUPIED PERIOD” menu selection you can selectively enable
occupied period for WEEKDAY, WEEKEND or ALL WEEK. In Figure 4-43, “OCCUPIED
PERIOD” has “WEEKDAY” selected which means only the time defined in “WEEKDAY

- MODEL NAME: Model name entered in this field will appear as device name for the panel in BACnet network.
4.6.5 VIEW SENSORS
Menu path: Main Menu–>VIEW SENSORS–>The VIEW SENSORS menu allows the user to view
information about the sensors connected to the KGC-1200. Press the left/right
cursor to scroll through the sensors. To select a specific sensor without
scrolling, select “Sensor: x” and press ENTER. Then, enter the sensor address
and press ENTER.
Sensor Description: Each sensor can be given a user-defined description. The
description is often used to describe the sensor’s location. To add or change
a sensor’s description, select Sensor Description and press ENTER. A screen
with sensor address, DESCRIPTION and SAVE will appear. Select ‘DESCRIPTION’
and hit ENTER. Then, use the alphanumeric keys to enter the description and
press ENTER. Sensor description is limited to 20 characters. Use RIGHT arrow
key to move to next character or to add a space and use DEL to delete last
character entered. Once desired description is entered, SAVE the sensor
description. Sensor Description entered for each sensor will be displayed in
ALARM, WARNING and TROUBLE screen if corresponding sensor is one of the
sources for the ALARM, WARNING or TROUBLE signal.Disable: No – If any sensor is disabled, the panel will not take
the sensor readings into consideration for Zone Outputs activation, panel
fault conditions, etc. This is like a virtual delete.
When a sensor previously disabled is enabled back, then all the functionality
related to the sensor is resumed back, i.e., sensor readings will be taken
into consideration for Zone Outputs activation, panel fault conditions, etc.
This option allows the user to disconnect a sensor for repair or replacement
without any trouble or error on the panel. For example, to replace a sensor,
first disable that specific sensor in the panel. Then, disconnect it from the
system and replace it with the new
unit (of same type). Lastly, return to the VIEW SENSORS menu and enable the
sensor. Using this method, all previous sensor configurations will be retained
so it will not be necessary to reconfigure the sensor.
Delete – This will delete the sensor from the panel and from all the zone to
which the sensor is added.
If the sensor is connected to the panel even after deleting it, then the panel
must discover the sensor again. However, it will be like a new sensor
discovery. Therefore, the sensor will not be added to any zones.
Note: When replacing a sensor (already registered with KGC-1200) with a sensor
of different type but same address (e.g. CO sensor with address 17 replaced
with NO2 sensor with address 17) then it is recommended to perform a Delete
operation for corresponding sensor address, after sensor replacement is
complete, and verify correct sensor type is displayed for corresponding sensor
address.
Type: – Displays the sensor type. See Table 4-2 for a definition of each type.
The bottom box of the display shows the current gas reading of the detector.
It also lists any zones the detector is part of. E.g. In the following
example, Sensor 1 is CO Sensor (Type: 1) reading 0ppm and is currently
assigned to Zone 1. 4.6.6 EDIT ALARM AND WARNING SETTINGS FOR SENSORS NOT IN
ZONE
Menu path: Main Menu CONFIGURE SYSTEM CONFIG. RLYS, SIGNALS, SENSORS, REM.
DEV. CONFIGURE SENSORSThe Configure Sensors menu allows the user to change the alarm and
warning level of sensors by sensor type, for all connected sensors which are
not assigned to a Zone. When a fault condition is reached, the KGC-1200 will
go into alarm or warning, but any
existing zones will remain normal, assuming they are not also in a fault
condition. Fault events of these sensors are also recorded in the Events Log.
See the figure below for an example of the Configure Sensors screen.

Enter up to a 4-digit new password and hit ENTER to save the new password.
4.6.8 EVENTS
Menu path: Main Menu–>EVENTS –> The KGC-1200 keeps a log of events in its
memory. To view the events, select EVENTS and press ENTER. The display will
load the latest logged events if this menu is entered first time after power
up otherwise it will load event screen last visited. It can store up to
122,880 events and once this limit is reached it will start overwriting older
events.
Power Up, Alarm, Warning, Trouble and Relay activation are types of events
that are logged in the panel. All the logged events will have date and time of
the event occurrence. For Trouble, Alarm and Warning the event log will also
have the sensor address that
caused the corresponding event. Alarm and Warning events for a sensor are
logged only if they are assigned to a zone. Figure 4-64 shows an example of
Event Log screen and Table X lists the abbreviations used in Event Log for
corresponding events.

BACnet
5.1 General Information
When KGC-1200 boots, it is set by default to acquire the IP address using the
DHCP client. For the BACnet the following information is important and will be
necessary to configure the BACnet/IP client.
Note: For the KGC-1200N Model, the ethernet port is not included and BACnet
output is not an option
Note:
- Device Instance: 12345 (default)
- Port Number: 47808
- IP Address: Use the IP address being leased by the DHCP server (router). This information can be retrieved by checking ETHERNET SETTING in COMMUNICATION setting of the KGC-1200 connected to the network on the DHCP server. If static IP address is being used, use the one that was assigned to the KGC-1200.
- KGC-1200 BACnet/IP interface server, only allows the client to read values from KGC-1200. Writing is not allowed by the interface.
The following information about KGC-1200 is accessible via BACnet.
- Group Settings (Range, Alarm, Warning, Rising, Falling) for Each Sensor and Each Zone
- Readings and Type for All Detectors
- Zone Configurations (Types of detectors assigned, Horn/Strobe Assigned, Relay Assigned, Analog Output Assigned, Quorum for Voting Mode)
- Output Status and Values of KGC-1200 Outputs
- Title 24 Configuration and Sensor Status
- Remote Devices Status and Configuration
- System Status and Fault Events
- Warning and Alarm Settings for Sensors Not in a Zone
Note: BACnet Objects with value 65535 indicate the value received is not
reliable. Some of the possible reasons for such a high value received are
sensor not connected to panel, sensor is in trouble, or invalid/not supported
BACnet object. Operators must figure out the root cause of such readings.
For details on BACnet implementation or BACnet capabilities of KGC-1200, refer
to KGC-1200 PICS available on the product page on the company website
(www.Kele.com).
5.1.1 Group Settings for Each Sensor and Each Zone
Information about Group Settings for each gas type can be accessed via BACnet
output in KGC-1200. Table 5-3 shows the BACnet Object Type and Object Instance
for each object. N in Table 5-3 refers to zone number. E.g., if I want to
access the Alarm settings for CO sensor in Zone 3, then Object Instance for
the corresponding object is 3+ (3-1) * 68= 139.
Group settings are local to zone and hence each zone can have different
settings for same type of sensor. Table 5-1 shows the possible values for
‘code’ object and corresponding detector type. Similarly, Table 5-2 shows the
possible values for ‘Eng. Unit’ object and corresponding engineering unit.
Code (Type) | Detector Type |

Table 5-3 – BACnet Objects for Group Settings of all Zone
5.1.2 Readings and Type for All Detectors
Each sensor addresses from 1 to 192 has two BACnet Objects (one for sensor
reading and one for sensor type referred as group). Table 5-4 shows the BACnet
objects and corresponding object instance. N in Table 4 refers to the sensor
address. E.g., to retrieve sensor reading for address 16, corresponding object
instance is 553 + (16-1)*2 = 583.
If a sensor address is not detected by the panel, then corresponding BACnet
object reading and group value will be 65535 and 0, respectively.
Note: If the value of sensor reading BACnet object is outside the range of
detection of the sensor then the reading is not reliable and cause for
unreliable reading must be investigated. Refer to Table 4-2 or sensor manual
for information on range of detection.

Table 5-4 – BACnet Object for Detector Reading
5.1.3 Zone Configurations
(Types of detectors assigned, Horn/Strobe Assigned, Relay Assigned, Analog
Output Assigned, Quorum for Voting Mode) for all Zones Table 5-6 shows the
BACnet Objects representing zone configuration for each zone. N in Table 5-6
refers to Zone number.
When binary output is set to 1 (or active), it means that the corresponding
KGC-1200 output (Horn/Strobe, Relay) is configured or assigned to that zone,
or in case of the group[X] means that the sensor of type X (Table 5-1 lists
the valid values of type i.e., value of X) is added to that zone.
If any of the three analog outputs are assigned to the zone, then object
“analog output” for corresponding zone will have the analog output number
(valid values are 1,2 and 3). If the zone does not have any analog (or 4-20mA)
output assigned, then “analog output” will have value 0.
“mode” BACnet object retrieves information about the mode for each sensor type
in the zone. Value for mode is a 12-bit number. Bit 11, bit 10, and bit 6 are
always set to 1. So, this field will have values from 3136 to 4095. If a
sensor type has mode set to ‘VOTING’ in Group Configuration of the Zone, then
its corresponding bit will be set to 1. And, if the sensor type has mode set
to ‘AVERAGE’ then its corresponding bit will be set to 0. E.g., If Zone [1].
mode present value is 4095 then it means that all sensor types in Zone 1 are
set to VOTING. Similarly, if Zone [2]. mode present value is 4094 then it
indicates that all sensor types in Zone 2 are set to VOTING mode except Type 1
(CO) which is set to AVERAGE mode.
| Type 10 (Bit 9)| Type 9 (Bit 8)| Type 8 (Bit 7)| Bit 6| Type 6 (Bit 5)| Type
5 (Bit 4)| Type 4 (Bit 3)| Type 3 (Bit 2)| Type 2 (Bit 1)| Type 1 (Bit 0)
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---

“Quorum[X]” is another analog type of object for Zone Configuration. If voting
mode of operation for a sensor type X (Table 5-1 lists the valid values of
type i.e., value of X) is selected, then value of this BACnet object
represents quorum value for that sensor type.

5.1.4 Output Status and Values of KGC-1200 Outputs
When the output (buzzer, Horn/Strobe, Relay) is active the binary output value
for corresponding output is set to 1 (active) and when the output is not
active then the corresponding output is set to 0 (inactive).
For three analog outputs, the values of corresponding BACnet object represents
the current output (in mA) from the analog or 4-20mA output in KGC-1200.
