Pressing RESET will exit system test mode otherwise the system will automatically exit test mode 4 hours after being put into test. Section 6 – Programming 6.1 General The annunciator must be programmed with information about the installation in order to display alarms, supervisory and troubles correctly. A checksum trouble indicates the annunciator does not have the same information as the CP-3000A(DA) it’s enrolled into. The annunciator must be programmed to clear this trouble condition. Programming is accomplished by downloading installation information from the CP-3000A(DA) using the WRA-3 programming pc application and uploading it to the annunciator as explained in this section. When the annunciator is first enrolled into the CP-3000A(DA) it will display a checksum bad trouble message because its device and programming information does not match the CP-3000A(D). After the annunciator is programmed the checksum can be cleared. There are however several installation changes which will initiate a checksum bad trouble and require the annunciator(s) to be reprogrammed. The following changes will cause a checksum trouble and require reprogramming of the annunciator(s): 1. A change to any of the editable parameters of any device or repeater on the device edit screen of the CP-3000A(DA). The checksum will occur after saving the change(s). 2. Enrolling or deleting a device, annunciator or repeater on the CP-3000A(DA). 3. Changing the supervisory on/off setting for alarm C on the CP-3000A(DA). 4. Changing the point I.D. of a device. Deleting and enrolling the same device would cause this. Note: It is advisable to program the annunciator after the entire installation and zone programming is complete. Changing any other programming options on the CP-3000A(DA) will not cause a checksum trouble. 6.2 WRA-3 Software programming tool The WRA-3 programmer is a Windows PC application (WRA3Programmer-1.0.0.exe) used to program the WRA-3 with the current installation information. The WRA-3 programming tool is included in the WRA3-PK programming kit sold separately. The kit includes the software, micro sd card and usb adapter. The WRA-3 programming tool is compatible with Windows XP 32 bit, Windows 7 32/64 bit and Windows 8 32/64 bit. Double click the installation program and follow the prompts.

Section 8 - Signal Survey 8.1 Installation Survey The test must be performed before and after mounting the annunciator. The signal survey will insure the annunciator has good communication signal strength with the network. The annunciator must be enrolled to the CP-3000A(DA) and in communication range of an enrolled AR-3A repeater or the CP-3000A(DA). Follow the enrollment procedure in this and the CP-3000A(DA) manual IM-C3KA(DA). A survey can also be performed with an AR-3A repeater in survey mode. Refer to the AR-3A manual IM-AR-3A for more information. WRA-3 Voltages Battery: 3700 mv Charger: 4005 mv (!) ACK> WRA-3 Voltages Battery: 3100 mv (!)

P/N IM-WRA-3 Rev. A  2012 Commercial Wireless Systems International, LLC. 18After the annunciator is enrolled and communicating with the network select the signal survey screen in the info and maintenance menu as explained in section seven of this manual. The survey screen will look as shown below when first viewing it. Survey Screen before First survey The word “ready” indicates the annunciator has communications with the network. If “not ready” is displayed the annunciator will not perform a survey as it is not in communication with the CP-3000A(DA) or an enrolled repeater. Press the SIGNAL SILENCE button and the annunciator will beep and the following screen will be displayed. Signal Survey after first survey The Linked to I.D. shows the last two characters of the repeater or CP-3000A(DA) the annunciator is linked to. The next line shows if the survey is good or bad based on a percentage of signal strength read during the survey signal communication. A number of 68% or higher will display a “Good Survey” message and the sounder will beep twice. Anything less than 68% will display a “Bad Survey” message and the sounder will emit a 2 second continuous tone. Press the SIGNAL SILENCE button to perform additional surveys. The user should wait 2 seconds after the survey result prior to conducting the next survey. 5 or more good surveys in a row should be received before accepting the location as being good to mount the annunciator. If a bad survey is received try moving the annunciator until 5 good surveys in a row are received. Once an acceptable location is found the annunciator can be mounted as outlined in the installation section of this manual. Signal Survey Linked to I.D. xx Good survey: xx% ACK> Charger: 4205 mv (!)
