RF SILENCE & ALARM INHIBIT
RF SILENCE | INHIBIT:##:##
TURN: ON | OFF | START

Select the function by swiping the magnet over the markers of the up or down arrows to move the arrow
prompt “→” to the desired location. A swipe over the “ENTER” marker will activate the selected function.
RF SILENCE is used to prevent the radios from possibly interfering with other RF devices on site (such as
remote detonators). Once set to ON, it will stay on until the user turns it OFF. The values below ON and
OFF represent the number of RXTs that have RF silence turned ON or OFF respectively. If any of the
RXT-300s in the network do not enter RF silence, the HMI panel will display the message:
NOT ALL RXT-300S ENTERED RF SILENCE,
DO YOU WANT TO CONTINUE?
YES NO VIEW
Selecting YES will proceed with implementing RF silence for the selected RXTs. Selecting NO will cancel
the RF silence function. Selecting VIEW will display all the RXT-300s in the network by their MAC
address and their corresponding RF silence status. NORMAL indicates RXTs that are not in RF silence
and RF SIL indicates RXTs that are in RF silence. In RF silence, the sensors are not monitored and no
alarms can be activated.
The INHIBIT TIMERS mode is used to momentarily disable alarms in the system when calibrating sensors
to prevent the alarms from firing. It has a timer range from 0-60 minutes. Once the timer value has been
entered in minutes and seconds, select START and all relay outputs on the network will be disabled until
the timer reaches 0 or is manually stopped by the user.
5.3.4 Alarm Test Mode
The ALARM TEST MODE menu allows the user to simulate alarm conditions and verify relay contacts.
Upon entering this menu, the LCD will display:
ALARM TEST MODE
OFF
A swipe over the ENTER marker will toggle the alarm test mode ON or OFF. When turned ON, the alarm
test mode simulates alarm conditions by incrementing all active device readings from 0 - 100% of the range
in 5% increments. When full scale is reached, the readings will decrement back to 0 and the unit will exit
the test mode. The test mode can also be terminated at any time during the test cycle by turning OFF the
alarm test mode. As the readings cross their respective alarm set points, the relays will fire according to
their configuration.
5.3.5 System Diagnostics
The SYSTEM DIAGNOSTICS menu performs function tests for the LCD display, the panel LED’s and the
external reset switch, if one has been installed. Upon entering this menu, the HMI panel will automatically
initiate a function test that displays every pixel of the 4 line, 40 character LCD display. The unit then
performs a function test of the LED drivers by activating all four LED’s. After the LED test, the unit will
initiate a test for the external reset switch which lets the user know when the reset switch is pressed. The
user will be prompted to “PRESS ENTER KEY TO CONTINUE” meaning a swipe of the ENTER marker.
