Introduction

Introduction
The 96D controllers act as nerve centers for gas detection networks,
providing continuous monitoring for up to 96 connected units (plus 1
301ADI). Since the controllers are factory programmed to the owner’s
specifications, installation is limited simply to mounting and connecting
them. Once installed and connected, the controllers allow the user to
monitor, adjust, or reconfigure an entire network of units.

Intended Use
The controller is intended to monitor an entire gas detection network
around the clock. The unit offers logging capabilities, creating log files
of all transmitter concentrations and alarms for analysis. The unit is
also equipped with grouping or zoning capabilities that allow users to
query and monitor specific groups of transmitters or specific transmitter
zones.

Receiving and Unpacking
Upon receiving the controller unit:
•
•
•

Check that the package is undamaged
Carefully open the package.
Locate the packing slip or purchase order and verify that all items
on the order are present and undamaged

Note: If the package or any of its contents are damaged, please refer to
the Warranty section at the back of the manual for instructions.

Power Connections

Power Connections
The 96D requires a power range of 17-27 Vac, 50/60 Hz (8.64 VA), 1836 Vdc, 350 mA @24 Vdc (8.4 VA). Polarization is not important in
either AC or DC mode. The system must be grounded on the
transformer and a dedicated circuit breaker must be used.

Communication Connections
Communication cables must be grounded using the shield terminal,
using twisted and shielded pair Belden 2-24 AWG #9841 cable (or
equivalent).
The network cabling can extend up to a limit of 2000 feet (609 m) per
channel.
The length of a T-tap can reach 65 feet (20 m), up to a maximum of 130
feet (40 m) for all T-taps.
All wireless devices associated to the controller will automatically be
detected and communicate with the controller using wireless
communication protocols.

Settings for Specific Transmitters
Honeywell Sensepoint XCD Transmitters must be configured for 9600
baud, no parity, and a unique address. Honeywell XNX Universal
Transmitters must be configured for 9600 baud and a unique address.
Information on configuring each transmitter is in the associated
technical manual.

Relay Output

Relay Output
The relay output can withstand up to 5A at 30Vdc or 250Vac (resistive
load only). Relays can be used to activate horns and strobes. Although
each relay is programmed with a default setting (below), they can be
configured using the controller programming menu.

RELAY OUTPUTS

N.O.

COMM

Normally open

N.C.

Normally closed

If relays are set to Normally closed, the relay is powered up with the
controller and the device linked to the relay is functioning. The relay will
shut down when the specified alarm condition is reached.
If the relay is set to normally open, the relay will remain off when the
controller is powered up and the device connected to the relay will only
be activated when the specified alarm condition is reached.
Note: These functions are reversed if the controller Failsafe mode has
been activated.

Introduction
Relay Output

Jumper Use Instructions
The jumpers on the controller PCB allow a variety of operations to be
performed manually:
EOL 1-4: Enables the user to add End-Of-Line jumpers that improve
communication signals. Put the jumper in R position (as
shown on wiring diagram) to activate the End-of-Line
termination. (R provides a resistance termination and RC
provides resistance and condensator termination.)
SHDN:
Enables the microcontroller to be reset or temporarily shut
down. This function is used mainly when system wiring
adjustments are needed (power off for safety).
Relays
These jumpers allow the relay to be tested by activating it
J29-J32 without having any effect on Events.

The screens for viewing alarm thresholds are combined in this manual.
There will be either two or three levels, depending on transmitter type.
If present, separate “MIN” and “MAX”levels permit manual control of the
hysteresis of each alarm. Normally, the “MAX” level is set greater than
“MIN.” However, alarms can be made to trigger on falling concentration
(as with oxygen) by setting the “MAX” threshold smaller than the “MIN”
threshold.
With certain transmitters, only one threshold will be displayed.
Additionally, with certain transmitters, the alarm thresholds are readonly at the controller. These thresholds can be set only at the
transmitter.
These are typical screens:

The second option is SDcard to 96D allows the configuration and
parameters of the “config.ini” file on an SDcard to be copied to the
controller.
Note: The “config.ini” file contents can be modified at any time and from
any computer.

1. When transferring data, the system will automatically search for an existing “config.ini”
file before proceeding. If one exists, the system searches for a “config.bak” file. If
found, the file is deleted. Then, the pre-existing “config.ini” file is renamed “config.bak”,
making it possible to save the new “config.ini” file and keep a backup copy of the previous one.
After inserting an SD card into the controller, the controller’s system looks for an existing “config.ini” file that contains an “autoload” tag equal to 1 (yes). If the tag is found,
the system loads the contents of the file and resets “autoload” to 0 (no). This is a useful
feature for editing the file on a computer without having any impact on the controller
(such as recorded Events).

Normal Mode
This is the system’s normal (default) operation mode. When the system
is in normal mode, some values can be changed without interrupting
services. When a value has been changed in any of the menu fields,
the change will take effect upon returning to the main menu screen.

Single Tx Mode
This mode allows transmitters to be analyzed one at a time. The
controller polls only the selected device, which subsequently has its
information updated. This mode does not interfere with Event
Evaluation functions.

Debug Mode
This mode allows complete system operation to be evaluated and
tested without affecting operations (outside of debug mode). Events
are evaluated and displayed as necessary but no action is
triggered.

Simulation Mode
This mode deactivates network communication Information Updates. It
can be combined with any of the three previous modes (example: using
the Simulation mode when in Debug mode allows the user to test the
entire system [groups, events, etc] without triggering any actions or
using any additional material such as gases). It allows gas
concentrations to be simulated over an associated scale for each
transmitter, sequentially:
Alarm levels A, B and C are evaluated according to the simulated gas
concentration and events are evaluated and actions are taken.
This type of alarm simulation at the controller does not work with
certain transmitters with falling alarms. In these cases, an alarm can be
simulated at the transmitter.
While in simulation mode, the controller is unaware of the device’s
actual network status. This mode can be stopped at any time in the
Test menu (see Normal System Operation).
If one of these modes has been activated, the system will automatically
return to Normal Mode after 12 hours of inactivity. (No changes will be
lost.)
