The Remote LCD Repeater Module is designed to
provide an independent scrolling log of system
status at numerous points within a building or
site. The module interfaces directly to a serial
printer port of the MINERVA addressable fire
panel. If a local printer is already connected to
the Panel's MPIM serial port, a second MPIM
must be used.
Features
· Uses a back-lit 4x20 character alphanumeric
display
• Provides an internal log of up to 150 events
• Provides internal audible warning of an event
• Allows the event log to be scrolled
• Local internal buzzer silence
• Connects to host panel's RS232 port
(maximum cable length between panel and
first repeater of 15m)
• Provides an external sounder to mimic the
internal buzzer
• Can be connected to an unlimited number of
other LCD Repeaters by using the
RS232/RS422 converter (up to 1200m
between repeaters)
The LCD repeater must not be used in the
primary fire path. It must not be used as the sole
warning that a fire exists.

LOCAL PRINTER
A serial port is also available from the controller's
MPIM, which may be used to drive a serial printer
or a terminal/computer. In cases where more than
one printer is required locally, it is possible to
"piggy-back" an additional MPIM onto the MPIM
on the front panel and this will, when connected
to the local bus, provide the interfaces (up to a
max of 8) for additional (printer) equipment.
REMOTE PRINTER
If it is required to have printers positioned at a
remote location, an MPIM must be used. This
MPIM has its address set on-board and is
connected to the controller's remote bus. The
connections between a MINERVA controller and
remote printers are shown in the diagram below.
An additional DC/DC converter module would
typically be required to power the MPIM (the
DC/DC converter can power two MPIM cards).
WALL MOUNTED PRINTER
This unit is designed to provide a wall-mounted
printing facility for the MINERVA analogue
addressable fire control panels. The unit is
powered from 240V a.c. 50Hz and uses a 42
column printer with an RS232 serial input. It is
designed primarily as a hard copy alarm/fault
logging facility. A serial printer cable is used to
connect the printer to an MPIM configured as a
printer driver.

MINERVA Printer Options
The AC Power Module [ACPM] is common to all
MINERVA addressable models and supplies
power to all the PCBs and other devices fitted. It
contains an integral battery charger which
continuously charges back-up batteries. These
are required to supply the system in the event of
a mains failure, in order to comply with the
requirements of BS 5839 Part 1 [1988].
Addressable versions of the ACPM are available.
This unit reports fault conditions to the control
panel via the addressable loop.
