INTRODUCTION

A6V10322639_b_en_--
The Model NRC Network Ring card from Siemens Industry,
Inc. is a card that networks multiple FireFinder-XLS systems
together in a Class X (Style 7) ring. The NRC can also be
configured for Class B (Style 4) operation in systems where
a ring is not required, as an alternative to the NIC-C card.
It provides communication between its host FireFinder-XLS
system and other FireFinder-XLS systems on an XNET network.
It replaces the NIC-C when a ring connection is needed.
The NRC can also be used to connect an NCCNT-G to the
XNET network. In this configuration, all events occurring on
the FireFinder-XLS network are displayed at the NCCNT-G.
One NRC is required in each FireFinder-XLS system on the
network. This NRC must reside in the same enclosure as the
PMI/PMI-2.
The NRC supervises the network to ensure proper opera-
tion. Any faults that are detected by the NRC are reported to
the PMI/PMI-2 for annunciation. In addition, the NRC has
diagnostic LEDs that indicate which faults have been found.
The NRC performs ground fault detection on its outgoing
ring port.
The NRC isolates faults to the individual link in trouble. When
wired for Class X (Style 7), network ring communication
continues unaffected.
An RJ-12 monitor jack is included for connection of XNET
diagnostic tools. In addition, RJ-45 and USB jacks are
included for firmware download. These jacks are located on
the front bezel.

3. XNET communications problems between the PMI/PMI-2 and the NRC. PRE-INSTALLATION The NRC does not have a network address but it does need to be included in the Zeus configuration. INSTALLATION The NRC plugs perpendicularly into one slot in the CC-2 or CC-5 card-cage via two 96-pin DIN connectors (only 64-pins are used) and can occupy any slot in the card cage. -

Help for additional details. Find NRC Software Version To check for the current version of NRC software in an installed NRC, go to the PMI/ PMI-2 and press the Menu button, select Report, press the More Info button and select the PMI. Press the Configuration soft key and “Touch” Appl Rev for the Application Version. - Page 4 Remove all system power before installation, first battery then AC. (To power up, WIRING connect the AC first, then the battery.) All field wiring to the NRC is connected to the terminal blocks of the CC-2 or CC-5 card cage slot in which it is installed. To connect the field wiring: Loosen the screw of the terminal by turning it counterclockwise.
