This manual describes the installation and configuration of the AN-3100D annunciator
system. This includes operation of its associated configuration software.

Glossary of Terms
Cell: Refers to a single module housing that can accommodate several
boards. An Annunciator that is 3 rows high by 4 columns wide consists
of 12 Cells.
Module: Refers to an individual electronic board. There are a variety of boards
used in the Annunciator System for inputs, outputs, communications,
etc.
N.O. Normally Open. Contact state is open when normal, closes upon alarm.
N.C. Normally Closed. Contact state is closed when normal, opens upon
alarm.
Energized: Typically refers to the relay coil state when normal. The coil de-energizes
(voltage removed) when in alarm or while activated.
De-Energized: Typically refers to the relay coil state when normal. The coil energizes
(voltage applied) when in alarm or while activated.
Form A Type of relay contact, SPST (single pole, single throw). Open in the
normal state, closes upon alarm or while activated.
Form B Type of relay contact, SPST (single pole, single throw). Closed in the
normal state, opens upon alarm or while activated.
Form C Type of relay contact, SPDT (single pole, double throw). Open and
closed contact with common pole. Both change state when in alarm or
while activated.
FCV: Field Contact Voltage. Field contact or wetting voltage for alarm inputs.
CSM: Common Service Module. The CSM provides common alarm controls
and output relays. Typically located in the bottom right cell.
I/O: Input/Output. This refers to a board that accepts the customer Field
Contact Inputs, provides outputs to the LED Display and can provide
optional repeat relays.

CONSTRUCTION
The AN-3100D is a modular design constructed from a matrix of cells up to 13
high by 13 wide. The cells can be configured for 1, 2, 3 or 4 points per cell. Each
cell provides front access to the electronics and all wiring connections are made
to the rear of the unit. Each cell can accept several modules in various
combinations, consisting of I/O Cards, Common Service Modules, Power
Supplies and Option Modules. The Common Service Module (CSM) is typically
located at the lower right cell of the unit and the other cells are used for I/O.

HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
I/O Modules
Each Input/Output (I/O) module can accept up to two field contact inputs, with
field contact voltage (FCV) provided either internally by the Annunciator or
externally by the customer. Each input includes optical coupler isolation and can
be selected for Normally Open (N/O) or Normally Closed (N/C) Field Contact
Inputs through the software configuration or module jumpers. The I/O module
provides outputs to the Display Module. Optional relays can be added to the I/O
module for repeating the alarm status. Up to two I/O cards can be inserted into
Card Slots 1 & 3 of a single cell for a maximum of 4 points per cell. The Cell with
the Common Service Module can also support one I/O Module (in slot 3), in
place of the Integral Pushbuttons.
There are two versions of input modules. One version has headers and jumpers
used to configure the FCV and the CSM address, while the other versions are
designed with an input circuit capable of accepting an input range of 24vDC to
125vDC and use a rocker switch for the CSM Address.
Both versions of the I/O module are configured via jumpers for: (NO/NC) and
Form A, B, C Relay Contacts.
Refer to the following table and to the part number affixed to the module to
determine the type of module. Note that all modules in a systems shipped from
the factory will contain the same type of configuration.

Field Contact Type

The I/O module supports both N/O & N/C inputs through the software
configuration, as detailed in the next section. N/O refers to Normally Open Field
Contacts (open in Normal State, Closed in Alarm State) and N/C refers to
Normally Closed Field Contacts (closed in Normal State, open in Alarm State)
As an alternative, the N/O and N/C settings may be selected via jumper P5 & P6
on the I/O Module.
NOTE: The NO/NC setting must only be configured via one method (hardware
or software). It is recommended to use the software method to avoid any
confusion.

CSM Address
Each I/O Module requires an address in order for communications to the CSM
module. The Address settings are required for configuring any per point
parameters and for mapping of serial communications.
There are two versions of input modules using different methods of setting the
address. Refer to Refer to Table-1 Module Types to determine which module is
in your system.

Older version
( Part numbers starting with 1085-)
The CSM address uses jumpers (J9) to indicate a binary address, starting at 0
and incrementing by one for every module in the system, from left to right, top to
bottom. In cases where there is only one module per cell ( Window code 1E) the
binary address will increment by two. Starting at 0 in the first cell, 2 in the second
cell, 4 in the third cell etc. Zero is set when all jumpers are removed.

Newer version
( Part numbers starting with 1087-)
The CSM address uses a rocker switch (SW1) to indicate a binary address,
starting at 0 and incrementing by one for every module in the system, from left to
right, top to bottom. In cases where there is only one module per cell ( Window
code 1E) the binary address will increment by two. Starting at 0 in the first cell, 2
in the second cell, 4 in the third cell etc. Zero is set when all switches are set of
off.
NOTE: Care should be taken when removing and replacing I/O modules to insure
that they are replaced into the cell from which they are removed. Failure to do so
will result in out-of –sequence address.

14 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

Communication Modules
The optional Communication Modules plug directly into the CSM Module through
card slot 2 and provide either a serial or Ethernet output. Only one
Communication Module per CSM is allowed. There are two variations of
communication modules used in the Annunciator based on the date (and part
number) used.

Original versions, pre June 2011 ( Part numbers starting with 1085- and 1086-)
Annunciators with the pre- June 2011 communication boards use one style board
for Serial Communications and a separate style board for Ethernet
Communications.
To verify which board you have, compare it to the pictures on the following pages.

Newer version, post June 2011 ( Part numbers starting with 1087-)
Annunciators with the post- June 2011 communication boards use one style
board for both Serial and Ethernet Communications. The Serial port will be active
when the ‘SPT’ option is included in the model number code and the Ethernet port
will be active when option ‘ETH’ is included in the model number code. Systems
may contain both Serial and Ethernet communications when options ‘SPT’ and
‘ETH’ are included in the model number.
To verify which board you have, compare it to the pictures on the following pages.

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 15
Serial Communication Only (original version)
( Part numbers starting with 1085- and 1086-)

The optional Serial Communication Module provides RS-232/485 serial data

using Modbus, DNP or ASCII protocols. The Modbus protocol can be configured
as Modbus RTU or Modbus ASCII and supports operation as a Master or Slave
device. It can transmit alarm status from the field contacts or receive alarms
through the protocol. The DNP protocol supports operation as a Slave device
transmitting the alarm status of the field contacts. The ASCII protocol is only
used in conjunction with the Time Stamping of Alarms Option (SER or SERFR)
continually streaming any alarm or return to normal events. When Modbus or
DNP is used with the Time Stamping of Alarms Option (SER or SERFR), it
provides the time and date of the alarms and return to normal events.
The Serial Communication Module can be configured via jumpers for RS-
232/485 communications. It can be configured via software for all Modbus and
DNP settings.

Ethernet Communications Only (original version)
( Part numbers starting with 1085- and 1086-)

The optional Ethernet Communication Module (Option ETH) provides alarm data
using Modbus and DNP protocols. Only one connection and protocol can be
used at a time.
The Ethernet Modbus protocol is the same as the serial version (Modbus RTU or
Modbus ASCII) encapsulated over the Ethernet LAN (TCP/IP). The Modbus
protocol supports operation as a Master or Slave device and can transmit alarm
status from the field contacts or receive alarms through the protocol. The DNP
I/P protocol supports operation as a Slave device transmitting the alarm status of
the field contacts. When Modbus or DNP is used with the Time Stamping of
Alarms Option (SER or SERFR), it provides the time and date of the alarms and
return to normal events.

The Ethernet Communication Module has no configuration jumpers. When

installed this module is mounted onto the Common Service module and together
they are installed in slot 1 and 2.

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 17
Serial/Ethernet Communication Module (new version)
( Part numbers starting with 1087-)
The optional Serial/Ethernet Communication Module can be equipped for Serial,
Ethernet or both simultaneously for dual or redundant communications.
The Serial Communications (Option SPT) provides RS-232/485 serial data using
Modbus, DNP or ASCII protocols.
The Modbus protocol can be configured as Modbus RTU or Modbus ASCII and
supports operation as a Master or Slave device. It can transmit alarm status
from the field contacts or receive alarms through the protocol.
The DNP protocol supports operation as a Slave device transmitting the alarm
status of the field contacts.
The ASCII protocol is only used in conjunction with the Time Stamping of Alarms
Option (SER or SERFR) continually streaming any alarm or return to normal
events. When Modbus or DNP is used with the Time Stamping of Alarms Option
(SER or SERFR), it provides the time and date of the alarms and return to
normal events.
The Serial Communication Module can be configured via jumpers for RS-
232/485 communications. It can be configured via software for all Modbus and
DNP settings.
The Ethernet Communications (Option ETH) is used for simultaneous
communications using Modbus TCP/IP or DNP protocols.
The Modbus TCP/IP protocol can be configured for Master or Slave operation.
When configured as a Modbus Slave, it can communicate to multiple Modbus
Master devices simultaneously via TCP/IP connectivity. When configured as a
Modbus Master, it can communicate to a single Modbus Slave device. The
Modbus protocol is used to transmit the alarm status or can be used to receive
alarms for annunciating the windows. When receiving alarms, the digital inputs
are not required, unless the two operate in parallel with an alarm generated from
either a digital input or Modbus data.
The DNP protocol supports operation as a Slave device transmitting the alarm
status of the field contacts.
When Modbus or DNP is used with the Time Stamping of Alarms Option (SER
or SERFR), it provides the time and date of the alarms and return to normal
events.
All configuration of serial and Ethernet connections is done via configuration
software.

Weather Tight NEMA front Cover (option NCB, NCT)
This option provides for a NEMA rated front cover for the panel-mounted option, it
consists of a swing frame and a weather tight door. Two options are available; the
NCB option uses ¼ bolts to secure the door to the panel; the NCT option has a
T-Handle for securing the door. Both options use ¼-20 mounting bolts to secure the
swing panel to the mounting surface. Refer to the charts following for the mounting
hole location and over-all size of the door.
Refer to the Panel mount option for the cutout dimensions for the annunciator, mount
the door option, centered on the hole. Mount the annunciator thru the panel hole and
secure with the mounting clamps as described in the panel mount installation
instructions (option PM, PC)

External Power Supply Mounting
An external Power Supply is available for 120/230VAC Power and one is
available for 125VDC Power also. These are used on larger systems per the
power supply chart and are Class 2.

AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 33
WIRING
All wiring connections are made to the rear of the unit using barrier style terminal
blocks. All Field Contact Inputs, Relay Outputs and Power Connections are
made to Terminal Blocks that have a #6 screw, which will accept a solid or
stranded wire from 12-22 AWG, with or without ring & spade lugs. The
Pushbutton Controls and Flash Synchronization connections are made to
Terminal Blocks that have a #6 screw which will accept a solid or stranded wire
from 14-22 AWG, with or without ring & spade lugs.
Ensure that a proper earth ground connection is made to the protective earth
ground stud.

Note for Relay Output Wiring: When option RR (Repeat relay) is

installed, and 120 Vac is switched by the contact. All output wiring in any
individual cell must be wired to the same phase of the service.

Input Wiring
The input wiring is determined by the number of alarms (or windows per cell)
and the number of I/O Cards. The available configurations are:
FULL SIZE HALF SIZE THIRD SIZE QUAD SIZE
WINDOW WINDOWS WINDOWS WINDOWS
(1 MODULE) (1 OR 2 MODULES) (2 MODULES) (2 MODULES)

(76mm H x 76mm W) (38mm H x 76mm W) (25mm H x 76mm W) (19mm H x 19 mm W)
The I/O cards can support up to two inputs, however, certain options limit that to
one input per card as shown with the Half Size Window above.

Common Field Contact Voltage

The I/O cards are typically set up for a common system-wide Field Contact
Voltage (FCV). In this case, terminals 2 and 4 of each I/O Terminal Block are
connected to the FCV, which is internally bussed throughout the system to the
Power Supply Terminal Block, Terminal 3. As shown in the Power Supply
Drawings, an external Field Contact Voltage Supply can be connected to the
Power Supply Terminal Block for distribution throughout the system. In systems
where the FCV is generated within the Annunciator, it is already distributed
throughout the Annunciator. Each I/O card FCV connection is internally fused
preventing any overload from the field. Removing an I/O card will disconnect the
FCV at the terminal block for that card only.

34 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

Isolated Field Contact Voltage
The I/O cards can be jumpered to remove the system wide bussing and replace
with an individual FCV connection per input. This is shown on the drawings as
well.

44 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

CONNECTING POWER
The AN-3100D Annunciator operates from a selection of AC and DC Voltages.
The Annunciator uses Power Supplies to provide the necessary 5VDC Logic and
LED Power. If the Field Contact Voltage (FCV) needs to be provided from the
Annunciator, separate FCV Supplies are provided.
For 24 and 48 VDC Input Power, an Integral Power Supply will always be used.
In some cases, multiple supplies will be located in the system to accommodate
the quantity of inputs specified.
For 120/230 VAC and 125 VDC Input Power, the quantity of inputs, window
sizes and other options determines whether the Power supplies can be self
contained within the Annunciator (Integral Power Supply) or external to the
Annunciator. External power supplies shall be Class 2.

56 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
APPLICATION
The AN-3100D Annunciator Configuration application is used to create, edit and
download annunciator configurations from a PC. The PC Comm Port connects
directly to the annunciator via a serial port on the front of the CSM module.
A configuration may be created on the PC without a connection to the
annunciator and then downloaded later. The configuration information is held as
a file on the PC, which may be edited if a change is required. An exception to
this is the physical size of the annunciator, which includes the number of input
modules, and the size of each module, which is factory configured.
If a configuration is edited, checks are made to ensure that the correct file is
downloaded to the annunciator. If more than one version of the AN-3100D
configuration software is used then more than one version of the configuration
file can exist. It is up to the user to ensure that copies of the configuration are
kept up to date. If the application detects that the local and remote copies of a
configuration are different the user can update either.
The application also includes a function to enable the configurable options in the
annunciator, such as Modbus and DNP communications.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
The AN-3100D configuration software should be installed onto a PC with the
following minimum configuration: -
300MHz Pentium II CPU
Windows 98/2000/XP
64Mbytes RAM
20Gbytes hard disk
Insert the AMETEK AN-3100D Configuration CD in the CD-ROM drive. This will
automatically start the installation process. If this does not happen choose ‘Run’
from the ‘Start’ menu then browse to the CD-ROM drive and click on
‘Autorun.exe’.
During the installation, you will be prompted to select the type of Annunciator
you wish to configure. Select only the models you wish to use to avoid confusion
with extra choices.

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 57
SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION INSTRUCTIONS
This is an overview of the configuration steps required for editing or creating an
Annunciator configuration. Refer to the next section for additional detail on the menu
selections.

Reviewing or editing the Factory Configuration

All Annunciators are factory configured per the model number. Some of these
selections, such as Alarm Sequence can be changed with the configuration software.
Other features not in the model number, such as N.O./N.C. Inputs, Input Delay, CSM
Relay Outputs can also be edited.
1. Remove the front mounted pushbuttons in the CSM Cell (or windows used in the
lower right Cell) to gain access to the CSM front mounted Serial Port.
Connect the serial (one to one) cable provided with the Annunciator between the
AN-3100D CSM Port and the PC with the Configuration Software installed.
(Note: The serial port on the rear of the Annunciator is used for the optional
communications; Modbus, DNP, etc. It is NOT used for the system
configuration.).
2. Start up Configuration Software. If a default configuration appears, press
Cancel.
3. Select Connections, then Settings and configure your PC Serial port for the Com
Port where your serial cable is plugged into, 9600 Baud, no parity and address 1
4. Select Connections, and then Connect. If successful, the Annunciator lights will
flash fast and a pop up screen will appear with your serial number. Press OK.
5. If you see a screen that says ‘Configuration Mismatch’, select Download

Connect Status

This option can be used when connected to retrieve the serial ID, the Hardware
version and the system description. When nothing is connected the menu
option is disabled. This can be used as an indicator to a successful connection.

Configuration Mismatch

When you connect to an annunciator the program checks to see if the active file
was the last configuration to be downloaded to the annunciator, if this is not the
case then the message shown above will be displayed.
A Configuration mismatch may occur as a result of the following:
1) You have opened the wrong configuration file.
2) Someone else has downloaded a different configuration to the annunciator.
If you choose the first option "Download configuration from annunciator" this will
copy the configuration from the annunciator in to the active file.
If you choose the second option "Overwrite configuration on annunciator with
configuration....." this will copy the configuration in the active file to the
annunciator.
In the case of a configuration mismatch it is recommended that you select the
first option and then save this configuration to another location as a backup.

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 67
Serial ID Mismatch

A serial ID mismatch occurs when you try to upload a configuration that has
already been uploaded to another annunciator. When you upload a
configuration, a note is kept of which annunciator it "belongs to". Every time you
connect to an annunciator the stored serial ID is checked to make sure that it
matches the annunciator you are connected to.
In the case of a serial ID mismatch if you hit continue you will be able to read the
configuration from the annunciator but you will not be able to write the active
one to the annunciator.
To rectify this situation you should click "No" and then open the correct
configuration file, or create a new configuration.

68 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

Configuration Wizard
The configuration of an AN-3100D is defined in a number of sections, which are
displayed on separate pages. The pages may be selected by clicking on the
labeled tabs at the top of each page. When a system is configured for the first
time the ‘Next >>’ button may be used to move through all the sections. This will
ensure that no sections are missed. The ‘<< Back’ button may be used to go to
the previous page if required.
A graphical representation of the annunciator is used to simplify the
configuration. This mimic diagram may be given the same window colors as the
actual unit to make correct input selection easy. Individual or groups of inputs or
modules can be selected by clicking on them. (To select a group of inputs, select
an input with the mouse and hold & drag across other cells. You can also use
the Ctrl key to pick a group of inputs.)
The Configuration Wizard Screens and their functions are detailed below:

System: Used to configure System Size (High x Wide), Window

size per cell and other system-wide features. Once configured and downloaded
it will be locked to prevent any further changes.

Input Configuration: Used to select individual settings per input, such

as input delays, repeat relay operation, critical/non-critical alarms, alarm
sequence groups. These settings can be edited or changed at any time.

Lamp Configuration: Used to configure flash rates for slow, fast and
intermittent speeds as determined by the operating sequence.

Sequence: Selection of the operating sequence for each alarm group.

CSM: Set-up of auxiliary relays and other system-wide functions.

Switch Input: Set up for optional external switch inputs and Test
Pushbutton operation.

ASCII: ASCII set-up configuration. (Only shown when option is

AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 69
System

The hardware configuration is defined in this page. The values must match the
actual size of the AN-3100D. A mimic diagram of the annunciator is shown on
the left hand side. The blank section on the bottom right of the annunciator is
the Common Service Module (CSM).

Note: After the configuration is uploaded to the annunciator for the first time the
system parameters cannot be edited. The controls will be disabled. Care should
be taken that the System values are correct. To make a change, you must
create a new configuration.

System Name (ID)

This name is used to uniquely identify the annunciator. Up to 16 characters may
be used.

70 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

Rows and Columns of Modules
Use the up or down arrows to the right of each value to set the actual number of
modules. The AN3100D annunciators are limited to 13 rows or 13 columns and
a maximum of 200 alarms or 50 Cells. (Example: a 13 x 4 system is not allowed,
but a 5 x 10 is.)

Alarm points per module

There may be 1, 2 or 4 points per module as determined by your window size.
Quad size windows use 4 points per cell, Triple Size windows use 3 per cell,
Dual or Half Size windows use 2 per cell and Single or Full Size windows use 1
point per cell. By default all modules have the same number of points. If
different numbers of points per module are required (Option IMW) click on the
Advanced button.
Hardwired inputs
The default is that all inputs are hardwired, which refers to the field contacts
wired to the back of the annunciator. On the mimic diagram the hardwired
inputs are shown with a dot at the center. Non-hardwired inputs refers to inputs
that are received via the serial communications. Non hard-wired inputs do not
respond to the I/O cards or field contact inputs.
Note: Serial Communications may be used for both Hardwired and Non-
Hardwired systems.
Input delay resolution
This determines the system-wide increment value for the input delay (or
response) for each alarm. It is used in conjunction with the individual input delay
setting in the Input Configuration Screen. The setting is based on whether your
maximum input delay will be 12.5 seconds or 250 seconds. You have 255
increments of the value selected. For the 50ms setting, you can have a
selectable software delay in 50 msec increments up to 12.5 seconds. For the
1sec setting, you have a selectable software delay in 1 second increments up to
250 seconds. Each input can have its own delay assigned as shown in the Input
Configuration page, however, this system setting (50msec or 1 sec) is applied
across the whole system.
Integral Push Buttons (Option INTB, NPB)
These are the pushbuttons located in the lower right cell of the Annunciator
System. They include Annunciator Functions: Test, Acknowledge, Silence and
Reset. They are provided when specified in the model number, using model
code INTB. When model code NPB is specified, the integral pushbuttons are not
installed and the software box should be unchecked, to allow up to two active
alarm windows in this position. For either selection (INTB or NPB), external
pushbuttons can be connected to the Annunciator terminal blocks with the same
functionality.

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 71
 Single Input I/O board (Option 2S)
This is selected whenever window size option 2S (two point windows with single
input per I/O board) is selected. The standard I/O board has two inputs
available, but in certain configurations, as listed above, it is necessary to only
activate a single input on this module.
Dual Relay (Option 2RR)
This will provide two repeat relay outputs (each selectable for Form A or Form B
operation) for every input. This is only available whenever window size option 1
(single point windows) or 2S (two point windows with single input per I/O board)
are selected.

Flash Synch Master (Option FS)

A software selection box is provided for flash synchronization between several
different AN-3100D Annunciators. In systems that require flash synchronization,
one Annunciator is configured as the Master (box checked) and all others are
configured as the Slave (unchecked). Wiring between the Annunciators is
required to share the flash signals. (Reference the Common Service Cell Wiring
diagrams.)
In systems that don't require flash synchronization, the Flash Sync Master box
must be checked. When setting up a system for flash synchronization, the flash
lamp rates should be configured as follows: (reference the Lamp Configuration
Screen)
Master and Slave Lamp Flash Rates should be identical except, on the Slave
units, set the Slow Flash ‘On’ time approximately 0.1 sec lower than the Master.
This ensures the slave unit is ready and waiting for the sync edge from the
master.
Set the Slow and Fast rates in even multiples. (Example: Slow Flash = 1.0 sec,
Fast Flash = 0.5 sec). Use of intermittent flash is not recommended.
Use alarm sequences that are either identical between master/slave units or
ones that share the same flash rates (slow, fast, etc.)
Note: If a Slave unit does not receive the flash synchronization signal from the
Master unit, the slow flash will become steady on.

72 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

Input Configuration

The configuration of each alarm input is defined in this page. To simplify this procedure
a number of similar inputs may be selected at the same time and common parameters
set.
An individual input is selected by clicking on it. The input will change color when
selected. The input number will be shown in the ‘Alarms’ list. To select a number of
inputs hold down the ‘Ctrl’ key while clicking on the inputs. To de-select an input press
the ‘Ctrl’ key and click on the input again. To select a rectangular block of inputs click
on the top left hand one then drag down to the bottom right.
When one or a number of inputs has been selected the parameters for those inputs
may be set.

Alarm Numbering
The inputs are numbered left to right and top to bottom. The inputs within a
module are numbered in sequence followed by the next module. So, for
example, the top row of inputs of modules with four inputs each are:-
1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, ……

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 73
Relay Mode (optional)
If the repeat relay option has been included with your system, you may select
the Relay Mode for each input as follows:-

Follows Input Contact – Normally Energized

The repeat relay will follow the status of the field contact, regardless of the
pushbuttons pressed. In this mode, the relay coil is energized in the normal
(non-alarm) state.
Follows Input Contact – Normally De-Energized
The repeat relay will follow the status of the field contact, regardless of the
pushbuttons pressed. In this mode, the relay coil is de-energized in the normal
(non-alarm) state.
Latched Alarm till ACK – Normally Energized
The repeat relay will change state during an alarm and latch on until the
acknowledge pushbutton is pressed, which returns the relay to the normal state.
In this mode, the relay coil is energized in the normal (non-alarm) state.
Latched Alarm till ACK – Normally De-Energized
The repeat relay will change state during an alarm and latch on until the
acknowledge pushbutton is pressed, which returns the relay to the normal state.
In this mode, the relay coil is de-energized in the normal (non-alarm) state.
Latched Alarm till Reset – Normally Energized
The repeat relay will change state during an alarm and latch on until the reset
pushbutton is pressed, which returns the relay to the normal state. In this mode,
the relay coil is energized in the normal (non-alarm) state.

74 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

 Latched Alarm till Reset – Normally De-Energized
The repeat relay will change state during an alarm and latch on until the reset
pushbutton is pressed, which returns the relay to the normal state. In this mode,
the relay coil is de-energized in the normal (non-alarm) state.
Follows Lamp Display – Normally De-Energized
The repeat relay will follow the state of the lamp display for that input. When the
display is flashing on and off, it will toggle open and closed at the slow flash rate.
When the lamp display is on steady, the repeat relay contact will be closed. It
will open when the lamp turns off.

Note: In addition to these configurations, the repeat relay contact may be

selected as a Form A or (Normally Open) or Form B (Normally Closed) using the
I/O jumpers described in the previous section.

Alarm Group
Each input belongs to one of 4 groups. The groups define the alarm sequences
that are set in the 'Group’ page. This allows up to 4 first out groups per system
or four different sequences.

Input delay
This is also referred to as the input response time, which is the amount of time
an input must be in the alarm state before it is recognized as a valid alarm. Each
input may be set from 1 second to 250 seconds in 1 second increments or from
50 msec to 12.5 seconds in 50 milliseconds increments. The system wide input
delay resolution (50ms or 1sec) is set on the System page.
Systems with FR Option enabled (1 msec response) will have an additional
software selection shown for 1 msec input.

Note: The Input Delay is the total delay including hardware and software
filtering. For AC Inputs, there will be an additional 40 msec hardware
filtering delay added to these numbers.

Critical alarm
Alarms may be selected as critical or non-critical for segregating inputs into a
common alarm relay output on the CSM. The CSM has separate relays for
critical or non-critical horns, reflash and fault outputs. Any input in the system
selected for critical or non-critical will activate the respective CSM relay output.
By default, all alarms are set as non-critical.

Modbus Transmit or Receive (Optional)

If the Modbus option is included with your system, every input is defined for
Transmit or Receive by clicking on the button. Transmit implies that the alarm
status from hardwired contacts are sent serially to some other device. Receive

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 75
 implies that some other serial device is providing the status of the alarm and the
Annunciator will respond as if it were a field contact input. You may choose
combinations of transmit and receive, but a single input cannot do both. You
may also set up an input as receive while providing a hard-wired contact input to
the same point. In this case, the Annunciator will respond to alarms from either
the contact or serial input in a logic OR arrangement. If the option is not
available this button is not displayed. It may also not be displayed if creating a
new configuration. You must connect to your Annunciator to enable the serial
Modbus configuration.

Note: Systems with Serial Inputs only (not Hardwired) cannot be set to
’transmit’.

Panel Colors
The color of each input in the mimic diagram may be changed to match the
actual annunciator. To do this select all the inputs with the same color as
described above then click on ‘Panel Colors'. From the color selector dialog
choose any color. The custom colors represent the available window colors.
Repeat this for each color.

Table View
Click on the Table View button to display the current input configuration in a
table format. This is designed to be a summary of all the input configuration, but
by clicking on the individual items you can change the selection from the table.
The column widths may be adjusted by clicking and dragging on the vertical
separators between the column titles.

76 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL

Lamp Configuration

The lamp flash rates are defined in this page. The operational sequence chosen
determines whether a slow, fast or intermittent flash rate is used. For example;
Sequence F3A uses all three rates while Sequence A uses only the slow flash
rate.
Click on the up or down arrows beside each number to increment or decrement
it. Click and hold on the arrows to scroll up or down. Click on the ‘Test’ button
to check the appearance of each flash rate.

CSM (Common Service Module)

The functions of the CSM are defined in this page.

Common Relay
There are 2 relays in the CSM and an additional 2 can be provided with option
RLY. Each relay mode may be defined as either Energized or De-Energized,
with respect to the power on, normal state. For example, an Energized Relay
has a coil that is energized when power is applied and there is no alarm. When
the output is activated, the coil will de-energize, transferring the contact output.
The Standard relay functions may be selected from:-
Critical horn Auxiliary horn output driven by any alarm selected as critical. The
horn relay output will return to its normal state upon activation of the silence or
acknowledge pushbutton.
Non-critical horn Auxiliary horn output driven by any alarm selected as non-
critical. The horn relay output will return to its normal state upon activation of the
silence or acknowledge pushbutton. Note: If a critical horn is used in addition to
the non-critical horn, the critical horn has priority. For example; if the non-critical
alarm is on and the Annunciator receives a critical alarm, the non-critical horn
will turn off and the critical horn will turn on. When the critical horn is silenced,
any new non-critical alarms will activate the non-critical horn. This operation can
be changed in the common functions below.
Ringback (clear horn) An output driven by the return to normal of an alarm
input. Operated by sequences R, RC, R12 and R12C only.

The following functions are included with the RLY Relay Option:
Critical Reflash Grouped output driven by any alarm selected as critical.
Upon a critical alarm, the relay output changes state. Every new critical alarm

i.
AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 79
 will pulse the relay output for approximately ½ second. The relay output will
return to its normal state when all critical alarms have returned to normal.
Non-Critical Reflash Grouped output driven by any alarm selected as non-
critical. Upon a non-critical alarm, the relay output changes state. Every new
non-critical alarm will pulse the relay output for approximately ½ second. The
relay output will return to its normal state when all critical alarms have returned
to normal.
Critical Fault This relay output will change state when any critical input
is in the alarm state. The relay output will only return to its normal state when all
critical alarms have returned to normal. The relay output is not affected by the
silence or acknowledge pushbutton.
Non-Critical Fault This relay output will change state when any non-critical
input is in the alarm state. The relay output will only return to its normal state
when all non-critical alarms have returned to normal. The relay output is not
affected by the silence or acknowledge pushbutton.
Power Fail This relay output will change state when the Power is lost. The relay
coil is energized upon start-up and the contacts will transfer upon a loss of
power.
Ground Fault This relay output will change state when a ground fault
condition is detected. (Note: Must have Ground Fault Detector Option GF)
The ground fault can be either a positive ground (+FCV wire to ground) or a
negative ground (FCV return wire to ground).
Watchdog System healthy output. It will activate when the system is not
processing alarms, like during the configuration process or when there is a
system failure. The Watchdog will detect when there is a remote communication
failure, if Modbus or DNP are used. The communication failure would activate
after a period of inactivity, including a disconnected or broken cable.
The Configuration Screen will show a summary of the Common Relay functions
to the right. To select a relay to edit use the up or down arrows beside the relay
number or click on the entry in the summary.

Note: In addition to these configurations, the repeat relay contact may be

selected as a Form A or (Normally Open) or Form B (Normally Closed) using the
I/O jumpers described in the previous section.

Common Functions
A number of system-wide functions are available through the Common Service
Module. To select a function click on the white box to the right of the name so as
a tick mark appears. To turn the function off click on the box again so as the tick
is removed. The available functions are:-

Enable Internal Horn (Option HN)

When selected, this will activate the internal audible device upon any non-critical
80 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL
 or critical horn condition.

Internal Horn Silence (option AS)

The internal horn (option HN) may be automatically silenced after a fixed time.
To do this use the up and down arrows to the right of the value box to set the
required time. The maximum value is 240s and the resolution is 1.0s.
Note: A setting of 0 indicates that the auto-silence is not activated.

External Horn Silence (Option AS)

This will silence any external horn if selected for CSM Relay #1-4 in the time
increment selected. This will automatically silence the Critical, Non-Critical or
Ringback Horn when this option is included with the system. The maximum
value is 240s and the resolution is 1.0s.
Note: A setting of 0 indicates that the auto-silence is not activated.

Auto Reset
This will activate the Reset function continuously, eliminating the need to
manually press this. (Note: this only applies to alarm sequences that require the
reset function.)

Critical Audible has no affect on non-critical

This will make the operation of the non-critical horn independent of the critical
horn. See the previous section on the operation of the non-critical audible.

Critical Audible Pulsed

This will pulse the critical audible output upon an alarm.

Non-critical Audible Pulsed

This will pulse the non-critical audible output upon an alarm.

Ringback Audible Pulsed

This will pulse the ringback audible output upon an alarm.

Switch Inputs

This screen is used to set up the optional External Switch Inputs (Option SW).
The External Switch Inputs provide several inhibit functions that are commonly
used when the system is left in an ‘in-manned state’ and there is no need to
flash alarms or sound horns. There are other configurations available on this
page to configure the Test Pushbutton Operation.

External Switch Function Settings

LED Lamp Inhibit
If selected, whenever the switch is closed, all LED Lamps in the system will be
disabled. If the operational sequence chosen latches the alarm (A, M, etc.), any
alarms that occurred while the inhibit switch was enabled as well as any current
alarms will be displayed as soon as the switch returns to the ‘off’ position.

Horn Inhibit
If selected, whenever the switch is closed, all Horns in the system will be
disabled. (This includes the internal horn and external horns connected to the
CSM Relay outputs.) If the operational sequence chosen latches the alarm (A,
M, etc.), any alarms that occurred while the inhibit switch was enabled as well as
any current alarms will be sounded as soon as the switch returns to the ‘off’
position.

Repeat Relay Inhibit

If selected, whenever the switch is closed, all Repeat Relays in the system will
be disabled. If the operational sequence chosen latches the alarm (A, M, etc.),
any alarms that occurred while the inhibit switch was enabled as well as any
current alarms will operate as soon as the switch returns to the ‘off’ position.
82 AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL
Inhibit all CSM Relay Outputs
If selected, whenever the switch is closed, all CSM Repeat Relay Outputs
(Horns, Reflash and Fault) will be disabled. If the operational sequence chosen
latches the alarm (A, M, etc.), any alarms that occurred while the inhibit switch
was enabled as well as any current alarms will operate as soon as the switch
returns to the ‘off’ position.

Test Configuration
The following functions can be activated when the Test Pushbutton is used. It
applies to the Integral Test Pushbutton on the CSM Module (Option INTB) and
to an external Test Pushbutton wired into the Annunciator.
1. Audible If selected, the audible outputs (critical, non-critical
and ringback horn) will be activated during the Test
Function.
2. LED Lamps: The LED Lamps will always be activated during the
Test Pushbutton. There is no selection to de-activate
this.
3. Repeat Relays: If selected, the Repeat Relay outputs will be
activated during the Test Function.

Other System Configurations

Auto Acknowledge This will activate the acknowledge function continuously,
eliminating the need to manually press this. (Note: by selecting this, you will
never get any horn outputs and flashing lamps, depending on the sequence
selected.)
Control Interlock This requires that the Silence, Acknowledge and
Reset pushbuttons are pressed in this exact order. Anything else will be ignored.
For example; if the Acknowledge pushbutton is pressed before the Silence, it will
not have any effect. (Note: If the Reset function is not required for the alarm
sequence selected, it will be ignored.)

Common Modbus Settings

Modbus Address
In master mode, this is the address of the slave annunciator that the master will
connect to. In slave mode this address is the annunciators own local Modbus
address. Every system on a common serial bus must be given a unique
address. Valid addresses are from 1 to 255.

Receive & Transmit Start Address

This defines the base register address for sending and receiving information.

Advisory

In some systems it may be necessary to separate the receive and transmit

registers by address to avoid overwrites. When operating in modbus master
mode the system will alternately transmit (FN16) and receive (FN03) register
data at approximately 0.5sec intervals. In some systems point data may be
overwritten before it can be forwarded if receive and transmit registers are the
same. In this case it is suggested that separate transmit and receive registers
are used e.g. 40001 and 40017.

Modbus Mode
The Modbus Mode may be selected from:-
Master
Slave
A Master unit may issue command functions and a slave unit responds to them.
When the AN-3100D configuration application is being used the AN-3100D will
be in slave mode independent of its Mode setting.

Data Type
The Modbus Data Type may be selected from:-
AN3135 Point State
Point
State
Reference Appendix A for a complete description of these Data Types.

Transmit Controls
If this option is selected, Acknowledge and Reset Pushbutton controls will be
transmitted along with point data. (When communicating between two
Annunciators, only one Annunciator may be set to Transmit Controls. As a
default, the Annunciator will always accept or receive pushbutton controls from
another device regardless if the Transmit Controls option is selected.

The Series 90A can transfer annunciator controls (ACK and RST) via modbus.
This can be done in two modes of operation, namely 3135 and Point data. In
Point mode the controls are within register 16 after 15 registers of alarm points.
In 3135 they are in register 5 after 4 of alarms. To avoid overwriting when
master and slave are using the same register addresses the bits used to transfer
the controls are different between master and slave mode. The bits used are
indicated in the table below.

RST ACK RST ACK

incoming incoming outgoing outgoing
Slave 0x0001 0x0002 0x0004 0x0008
Master 0x0004 0x0008 0x0001 0x0002

SERVICING
Ensure that the power supply to the unit is switched off before servicing.

MODULE REMOVAL
When removing a module for replacement or configuration, it is best to shut off the
power to prevent any false alarms or electric shock. When replacing any board, note
the jumper settings and transfer them to the replacement module. If in doubt, refer to
the module set-up instructions in this manual.

CAUTION
Note and record the window positions when removed from the
chassis so as to ensure that the windows are replaced in their
original locations
Severe problems/damage could occur to monitored
plant/equipment should windows be replaced in incorrect
positions causing erroneous indication of alarms
Only remove one window assembly at a time to minimize the
possible incorrect repositioning of alarm display windows

AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 103
ESD
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) can damage sensitive electronics when they are
being handled or touched. The Annunciator has been protected against certain
levels of ESD when touching the outside case or terminals. The internal
electronics may be susceptible to ESD when handled, so proper care should be
given to any exposed electronics or circuit boards. The following guidelines should
be used to prevent any build-up of ESD and to minimize the products exposure to
it.
1. Prevent static build-up by using conductive paints, carpeting, mats and metal
surfaces. Use appropriate grounding techniques, including wrist and heel straps
for personnel.
2. Store or transport electronic devices, parts or assemblies in conductive bags or
bins.
3. Only perform repairs at an appropriate repair station.
4. When handling electronic assemblies or printed circuit boards, try to avoid
touching traces on the printed circuit board or static sensitive devices.
5. Remember that tools are a source of static electricity. Only use grounded
soldering irons. Ground tools before using them to bleed off any charge build-
up.
6. Discharge yourself before touching or handling any electronic assembly or
device. This can be done by touching a good ground point before touching any
electronic devices or assemblies. Preferably, discharge any static charge
through a high impedance such as a wrist or heel strap.

APPENDIX B
MODBUS DATA FORMATS
The AN3100D Modbus operates as a Master or Slave in both Modbus RTU and
Modbus TCP/IP modes. The AN3100D Modbus port will transmit the ON/OFF
Status (called ‘Alarms’) and when equipped with the SER option, the timestamp
recorded for every alarm and return to normal occurrence (called ‘Events’).
Alarm ON/OFF Status is provided by reading 16-bit holding registers (Modbus
Function 03) with a single bit designated per input. A 48 input system would
indicate the status of all alarms using three 16-bit holding registers.
Event Data is provided by reading six 16-bit holding registers (Modbus Function
03) that contain the time, date, input number and alarm status for each event.
An event could be an input going into alarm or returning to normal. Event data
is provided in blocks of ten events for a total of sixty 16-bit holding registers. If
there are no new events since the last Modbus poll, it will return all FF’s. If there
are more than 10 events in the buffer, then it will continue to submit 10 events
every poll until there are no new events.
The system has the capability of operating with three distinct data formats: point
mode, alarm state mode and AN3135 mode. The latter is designed to be
compatible with existing AN-3100C Modbus installations. All these formats are
embedded within Modbus data registers for transmission and reception.
A selection of Modbus function may be used and these vary depending on the
whether the AN-3100D is operating as Modbus master or slave.
Data Direction AN-3100D
Function Description Data Units Master Slave Supported Mode
3 Read Holding Registers Words Input Output Master or slave
6 Preset Single Register Words Output Input Slave only
7 Read Exception Status Bytes Input Output Slave only
Preset Multiple Output
16 Registers Words Input Master or slave
17 Report Slave ID Bytes Input Output Slave only
A function value of 03 (Read Holding Registers) is set to read alarm data from
the system (in slave configuration). Function values 06 (Preset Single Register)
and 16 (Preset Multiple Registers) are used to write fault and control data.
Single and multiple register writes are supported. Exception status responses
(function 07) and Slave ID (function 17) are also supported. Exception codes for
unrecognized received messages are also included.
The Modbus functions are enabled by a software switch and require a key to
enable them, which is supplied by AMETEK. This may be done prior to delivery
or retrofitted to installed systems.

AN-3100D ANNUNCIATOR INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION MANUAL 109
Alarm State Mode
(only available in communication modules with part numbers starting with 1085- and 1086-)
The system can provide data reflecting the alarm state of the system. This mode
operates as output only (transmit alarms) from the system.
The alarm state data is present within a 16 bit register format as shown in the
table below. The data is in a nibble format (4 bits per point, 4 points per register)
and reflects the already established DMS3000/RTU3000 style format. Note the
control transfer is not supported in this mode as the control state of any point is
included within the data transferred.

Point Mode
The system can present or accept (transmit or receive) raw field input point data
plus alarm controls. Single and multiple register writes are supported. Data is
again presented in a 16 bit register format. The last word of a transfer of input
data may optionally contain control data.

AN3135 Mode
The system has the capability of mimicking the existing AN-3100C Modbus
functionality. The object is to provide a system that is backwards compatible
with the existing AN-3135 Modbus Module used on AN-3100C systems. The
AN3135 mode is restricted to the default Functions of 03 to read alarm data and
06 and 16 being used to write fault and control data. The principal difference
between this and the point mode above is that the AN3135 mode is restricted to
64 points.

Event Data
Event data may be read in blocks of 10 events at a time. These appear in a
block of 60 registers (6 per event) located at the configured Start Address plus
1000 i.e. if the Start Address is set to 40001 then the events appear at 41001-
41060. Once ten events are read then the registers are reloaded with any
subsequent ones from the 500 event buffer. If no event has occurred, then all 12
bytes are filled with FF HEX.
The event data format is as shown below:
Word MSB LSB

APPENDIX E
WINDOW ASSEMBLY DETAILS
The Annunciator uses a common window assembly for all window
configurations. The different window options are created using dividers (for the 4
window sizes) and colored filters for the different window colors (white, red, blue,
green, amber, yellow). The assembly drawings on the next page identify the
different options available.
A typical window consists of the following parts:
• Transparency film with Legends
• Colored Filter if required (red, blue, green, amber, yellow)
• White Diffusers (to eliminate LED hotspots)
All of these parts are pressed into the clear window, which is inserted into the
window frame.

Window Legends
The Annunciator Window Legends are typically printed on clear transparency
film, which is provided with the Annunciator. There is an option to engrave these
legends directly on the window (Option E). For printing of legends on the
transparency film, the Software CD will include a template in Microsoft Excel.
You type the legend in the window template that matches your size window and
print on a suitable printer. (A laser printer is recommended or any type that is
compatible with printing on Transparency film.)

Window Colors
The Annunciator Window Colors are provided through colored filters, which are
provided with the Annunciator. In cases where several different window colors
are required for an individual Cell (option IMC), the laser printed transparency
will be colored in place of the color filters. In these cases, color Laser Printer
should be used.

Note: All legends and pre-printed colors will be provided with the Annunciator if
the details are provided before the unit ships.
