Local Mode Control Operation

Default Stand-Alone Operation. In the event of a communications loss with the host fire alarm control panel, model 4100-9601 MINIPLEX Local
Mode Transponders provide fire alarm response default operation for its connected devices and appliances per the following:
Input Operation. During local mode operation, conventional initiating devices and addressable IDNet initiating devices shall be capable of reporting
an alarm condition to the MINIPLEX transponder. TrueAlarm sensors will cause an alarm at their least sensitive alarm threshold:
• Photoelectric sensors will alarm at 3.7%/ft smoke obscuration
• Heat sensors will alarm at a fixed temperature of 135 °F (57 °C)
• TrueAlarm device LEDs will be activated to indicate a device in alarm
Notification Operation. Fire alarm conditions reported against a fire alarm point type within a transponder in local mode will cause all notification
appliance circuits in that transponder to:
• Sound a general alarm temporal pattern horn tone
• Activate visible notification appliance circuits
Local Mode Module Support. Local mode operation provides support for the following MINIPLEX transponder circuits:
• Conventional NAC and addressable IDNAC notification appliance circuits, operated at a temporal pattern,
• IDNet, IDNet 2 and IDNet 2+2 addressable device circuits
• 4100ES amplifiers will provide their on-board horn tones (500 Hz) at a temporal pattern through their on-board amplifier NACs
• Firefighter Telephone control modules in local mode
Local Mode Operation Module Exclusion. Modules and circuits not listed above but that are listed as compatible with MINIPLEX transponders per
this document, do not interfere with local mode operation but are not supported during local mode operation.

Local Mode Controller

Operation. During local mode operation, an optional Local Mode Controller will indicate status (see Figure 2) and can be enabled using a
keyswitch to perform local alarm silence or reset. If alarms occurring during local mode are reset using a Local Mode Controller, upon restoration of
communications, those alarms will not be sent to the master controller. If alarms are still present upon restoration of communications, then the
alarm condition will be reported and host fire alarm control panel programmed alarm functions will occur. When communications are re-established,
the local mode transponder restores automatically.
Mounting. Local Mode Controllers are mounted on three-gang plates, are available in beige or red, and for either flush or semi-flush mounting. (See
Local Mode Controller and 579-343 operating instructions for details).
