Zones (inputs)
Program zones to determine how the zone will function in given circumstances. There are over 50 types of zones. Refer to the Alliance
System Programming Manual for more detailed information.

options.
Zone Assignments
All DGPs, zones (inputs) and relays (outputs) are numbered according to a set formula. This formula determines the number/location of
DGPs, zones, and relays.
Zones and relays allocated to each DGP:
Control panel
DGP 1
DGP 2
DGP 3
DGP 4
DGP 5
DGP 6
DGP 7
Either 8 or 16 zones can be connected to the control panel to expand the control panel to 24 or 32 zones. A standard DGP has 4 or 8 zones,
some can be expanded in increments of 8 to contain up to 32 zones. Expanding the number of zones connected to the control panel or a
DGP to more than 16 zones by using the AL-1206 is the same as combining two DGP addresses. To maintain consistent numbering, the
additional zones are taken from the next DGP address so you can not include the next DGP address for polling.
Example: An AL-2017/AL-3017 control panel has one AL-1206 (8-zone input expander) connected to J7. There is also an AL-
1205 (8-zone standard DGP) connected to the System bus. In this case the zone numbering, and DGP addressing, would be:
AL-2017/AL-3017 control panel
Zones 1-16 allocated
for this address
To program the system for this configuration:
1.
Set the address DIP switch on the AL-1205 for DGP 2 (Refer to the AL-1205 Installation Instructions for further details).
2.
In installer programming go to option 4, (DGP Database). Poll DGP 2 and set DGP Type to standard. Do not poll DGP 1
because the allocated zone inputs for DGP 1 have been taken by the AL-1206.
3.
In installer programming go to option 1, (Zone Database). Select the proper zone type, area, and central station. Zone
numbers 25-32 must be set for zone type 0 Disabled as these zones are not used.
