Modular Service Tool
The Modular Service Tool is very similar to the System Manager in its
operations. Two exceptions to this are that unlike the System Manager,
the Service Tool does not check the entire system when performing an
“Alarm” or “Override” search, and it does not have any passcoding
capability.
Note: When you press the or button
on the Modular Service Tool, it will search only the loop
number of the unit ID that you have entered; therefore,
you must search each local loop individually to access
all alarms or overrides on the system.

Stand Alone Mode
Confi guring the Modular Service Tool
for Network or Stand-Alone Operation
As with the System Manager, you must determine if the mode displayed
is correct for your system. If it is confi gured for Stand-Alone, Stand
Alone Mode will appear on the bottom line of the display. This is the
factory default setting. If you are using this tool on a system or controller
that does not have a CommLink or MiniLink PD installed, then this is
the correct setting, and you can proceed to the desired screen by pressing
the menu key or any function key. If you are using this Service Tool on a
communications loop and have installed a MiniLink PD or CommLink,
then you need to operate in Network Mode, and the bottom line should
display the words, Network Mode.
If your display indicates a different mode than the one you need, press
and the following screen will appear:
1) Set Time & Date
2) Communications
3) Energy Saving
ESC) Exit Menu
Press <2> to access the Communications Screen.

1) Network System
Enter Mode of Op:.xx
Enter <0> or <1> to select the proper mode of operation. When you
are fi nished, press to return to the Main Menu.

To search for alarms, press < Alarms> . The Unit Selection Screen will

be searched, not the entire system.

SEARCHING!
After the Modular Service Tool completes its search, it will list the fi rst
unit on the local loop whose ID was entered that currently has an active
alarm. Press

on that particular loop. To move to the next controller or back to the
