7810iR-ent Internet/Intranet Alarm Receiver Installation and Setup Guide
685 Automation Mode
When configured for 685 Automation Mode, subscriber alarm messages received on the
10BaseT connection are routed directly to Automation equipment. Using an RS232 serial
interface, the 7810iR-ent communicates with Automation equipment in the same way as a
685 Digital Alarm Receiver.
New alarms are briefly displayed in the 7810iR-ent New Alarm window with no audible
alert. When the Automation equipment receives and acknowledges the alarm message, the
7810iR-ent automatically moves the current message into the Alarm History window. The
next alarm in the New Alarm buffer will be displayed in the New Alarm window.
If the Fail to Manual option is selected during the 7810iR-ent programming, the 7810iR-ent
will revert to Manual Mode when communication with the Automation system is lost. When
communication is restored, the 7810iR-ent will send up to 49 unreported messages to the
automation equipment.
Both the New Alarm window and the Alarm History window are first-in, first-out (FIFO)
buffers that are limited to 49 entries. Once 49 messages have been received in the Alarm
History buffer, the next message received will push the oldest alarm off the list. There is no
method to save or archive messages in these buffers.
If the Fail to Manual option is not selected, a loss of communications between the 7810iR-ent
and Automation will block the AlarmNet connection. This makes all incoming messages
from AlarmNet undeliverable or bounced. In this condition, AlarmNet will deliver all
subscribers message traffic to the secondary CS path (AlarmNet-i, AlarmNet-M or 800
PLUS).
