VIP: Valve Interface Panel_ VP100 Installation Guide Quick Setup Detailed Setup Instructions (include how to connect to your alarm system, etc) LED Signals & Alerts Trouble Shooting A. Use cases will document the operation of the Valve Interface Panel (VIP) module in: 1. LAM: “Leak Active Mode” (Normal Operation with TickerValve) 2. LMM: “Leak Monitor Mode” (PB256 Notifier system w/o TickerValve) 3. Sync Mode The VIP is normally in Leak Active Mode and uses the five LEDs above their respective keys to display information about the state of the system and current settings of options. B. Leak Active Mode – Active Mode will be entered when a VIP is first powered up and is considered the Normal Mode of operation for the VIP. 1. The following will be displayed on the five LEDs in the Leak Active Mode: 1. GREEN = System OK – Sync Progress - Active Mode – All On-Line – or: Blink RED = Lost Sync – or: Blink GREEN = None Sync’d: The LED above the #1 20100419_PipeBurst Pro Installation Instructions and User Manual 2 | Page (▲) button is used to indicate the sync state. This LED is used during the sync process to indicate sync progress (defined later in this document) and also in the Leak Monitor Mode to indicate all devices are on-line (green) or that a previously sync’d FloodBug (FB) or FloTrax (FT) has gone off-line (blinking red). If no devices are sync’d with the VIP then this LED will blink green. 2. GREEN = Freeze Relief Valve (FRV) Closed. RED Blink = FRV Open. UNLIT = No FRV present in system. HOLD 7 Seconds to cycle FRV simultaneously with (TV). The second LED above the (▼) button) is used to indicate the state of the FRV (if one is installed). A red blinking LED indicates the FRV is Open and a green LED indicates the FRV is Closed (its normal operating position). An unlit LED indicates an FRV is not present in the system (determined by the cycling of the main TickerValve (TV) and FRV). The (▼) button is used to initiate an immediate test cycle of both valves (by holding down the button for more than 7 seconds). 3. GREEN = TV Open. RED = TV Closed. Green/Red Blink = No TV detected, are using Leak Monitor Mode. The center LED displays the state of the main TV (TickerValve) (green for ON, and blinking red for OFF). This large center button gives the ability to toggle the ON-OFF TV state. If no TV is detected (tested only when valve is cycled) this LED will blink red and green (as when used in Leak Monitor Mode only without a TV connected). 4. GREEN = LAM selected. Green Blink = LMM selected; Hold 7 seconds (no TV in system). Red Blink = Check SLA battery. Green/Red = No AC power. The fourth LED above the (◄) button) is used to indicate whether LAM (Leak Active Mode, normal) or LMM (Leak Monitor Mode, auxiliary) has been selected and will also display an indication of a weak or missing SLA back-up battery. 1. Under normal operation this LED will be continuously green, unless an SLA alarm condition exists. 2. When LMM has been selected by holding the (◄) button for a period of more than 7 seconds (meaning that a main TV (TickerValve is not connected to the VIP), then this LED will be blinking green. If an SLA alarm condition exists it will blink red. 3. If AC power is present and the SLA battery is weak and needs to be replaced, (or is not even present), this LED will blink red regardless of the LEAK MODE setting. 4. When AC power is lost this LED will blink red and green regardless of the LEAK MODE setting. 5. GREEN = CSI OK. Red Blink = Fault. Press 7 seconds to clear fault or to do master reset/clear system. The rightmost LED indicates the CSI (Critical System Indication) state and the (►) button gives the ability to perform a master reset of the VIP. A master reset will be performed after this button is held down for at least 7 seconds. The master reset clears (turns green) all faults including the CSI. (1) ENTER SYNC MODE: Press 2 seconds. Press 7 seconds to CLEAR ALL SYNC’D DEVICES: (Note: cannot be undone!). SYNC MODE – The VIP Sync Mode can be initiated using a remote FloTrax (FT), to perform either a FT sync or a FloodBug (FB) sync, or from the VIP by pressing the (▲) button for more than 2 seconds; but not more than 7 seconds for a FB sync. 20100419_PipeBurst Pro Installation Instructions and User Manual 3 | Page (4) IN SYNC MODE: Red Blink until sync request is received. Red/Green + Chirp = sync confirmed. Repeat for each device. 5 minute timeout. Once the VIP is in sync mode the (◄) LED will blink red until it receives a Sync Request Message. Once the VIP receives a Sync Request Message it will send a Sync Pending Message to the device’s (FB or FT) serial number it received during the Sync Request Message. The VIP will then begin to blink this LED red and green and also audibly “chirp” before a Sync Complete Message is sent. The VIP will then return to its previous monitor mode (default is LAM). A. If no Sync Request Message is received within 5 minutes of initiating the sync, the sync process will be aborted. Then the sync LED (◄) will blink red for 10 seconds and the VIP will return to previous monitor mode. B. The (▲) button is also used to clear all sync information from the VIP, FT, and FB. This clear sync function is accessed by pressing the sync button (▲) for more than 7 seconds.

NCEE Labs R031510-01-02A FCC ID:YBR-FT100 IC ID:8924A-FT100 Page 4 of 27 2.0 Description 2.1 Equipment under test The VIP (Valve Interface Panel) is the heart of the Pipe Burst Pro system. This assembly maintains all setting and state information for itself as well as for the FloTrax and the FloodBug components in the system. The VIP receives and processes alarm and status messages from all other system components and also controls other system components including the FloTrax, the Ticker Valve, the Pressure Release Valve, and any attached alarm system. The VIP also can maintain a battery backup, keeping an SLA battery charged and periodically testing quality of the SLA battery and indicating when to replace it. The VIP also maintains system time through the use of an onboard real time clock chip. The VIP is powered using an external 18 VDC power adapter. The 18 VDC input is connected to the to the main power buss thru a diode isolated battery backup switch circuit. The internal 12 VDC SLA battery is also connected to this circuit and will automatically power the main buss if the external 18 VDC power is lost. The EUT is supplied with a 18VDC Tech Power Int. power supply, ETSA40- 180222TI. EUT Received Date: 4/21/2010 EUT Tested Date: 4/21/2010 MODEL VIP POWER SUPPLY 18VDC Ac-DC Adapter MODULATION TYPE FSK FREQUENCY RANGE 433.92MHz NUMBER OF CHANNELS 1 MAXIMUM OUTPUT POWER 77.04dBμV/m at 3m (Average over 2sec) ANTENNA TYPE Internal dipole I/O PORTS None ASSOCIATED DEVICES FloTrax, FloodBug NOTE: 1. For more detailed features description, please refer to the manufacturer's specifications or User's Manual. 2.2 Laboratory description All testing was performed at the NCEE Lincoln facility, which is a FCC and IC registered lab. This site has been fully described in previously submitted reports. Laboratory environmental conditions varied slightly throughout the tests: Relative humidity of 45 ± 4% Temperature of 20 ± 3° Celsius NCEE Labs R031510-01-02A FCC ID:YBR-FT100 IC ID:8924A-FT100 Page 5 of 27 2.3 Description of test modes The EUT was modified by the manufacturer to transmit continuously for testing purposes. It was set to transmit one packet after another with 20ms in between transmissions 2.4 Applied standards The EUT is a low-power transmitter device operating on one frequency at 433.92MHz. According to the specifications of the manufacturer, it must comply with the requirements of the following standards: FCC Part 15.207, 15.209 and 15.231 using ANSI/IEEE C63.4: 2003 Industry Canada, RSS 210, Issue 7, Category I Equipment All test items have been performed and recorded as per the above standards. 2.5 Configuration of system under test The EUT was set to transmit at a rate much higher than normal use for the purpose of testing. The EUT was also tested in a mode of operation in which it ran in its normal operating condition, waiting to receive data. The EUT was tested with the 18VDC power supply. 2.6 Duty Cycle Calculation A transmitter activated automatically shall cease transmission within 5 seconds after activation The VIP is designed to have no regular transmissions. The only time the VIP transmits is in response to (acknowledgement of) alarm and control transmissions made by the FloodBugs and FloTrax. When the FloTrax sends the VIP control signals in response to changes in operating parameters initiated by the consumer or when the FloodBug sends alarm transmissions the VIP responds by sending ne…
