GEMINI II SYSTEM INTELLIGENCE
The Gemini II System allows operator access to its intelli-
gence via the Menu Control buttons on the Main Control
Panel. The Main Menu, which is enabled by pressing any
Menu Control Button (except Cancel) on the Main Con-
trol Panel (MCP), is structured per the architecture
shown in Figure 7. The Set, Isolate and Test functions
are password protected to limit access to authorized per-
sonnel only.
Figure 7. Menu Structure
The Set Function allows the operator to change pass-
word, set current date and time and the site-specific
operating configuration for the entire system. When the
System is initialized, the MCP downloads the operating
configuration to the RHUs and RDUs.
The List Function enables the operator to list the system
operating configuration, any isolated devices, registered
RHUs and RDUs and the Event History Log.
The Event History Log is a compilation of all Alarm,
Trouble, Supervisory and Event messages stored in non-
volatile memory. A maximum of 270 events can be stored
and the occurrence of a new event beyond the maximum
capacity erases the first. The Event Log can be cleared
by using the Gemini II ISP (In-Service Programming) Util-
ity CD-ROM.
The Isolate Function is used to isolate and de-isolate
input and output circuits on the MCP and all remote units.
The Test Function allows the operator to conduct a sys-
tem Walk test and Battery test on the MCP and all remote
units.
IN-SERVICE PROGRAMMING
The ISP Utility is a software program used to clear the
Event History Log of a Gemini II System and to upload
feature enhancements to its operating system. The ISP
Utility CD-ROM operates on IBM compatible computers
running Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, ME or NT and is con-
nected to the ISP port on the MCP, RHU and RDU via
Kidde P/N 74-100016-003 PEGAsys™ Telephone Cable
with DB9 Adapter.
