The information displayed in the above example provides the following information:
•
First line in display:
– The type of event; in this example ALARM indicating an alarm condition
– Device type identifier; in this example, PULL STATION indicates a manual pull box. Other
device type identifiers which can be displayed include SMOKE (ION) for Ionization
Detector, HEAT for Heat Detector, CONTROL for Control Module and MONITOR for
Monitor Module, PULL STATION for a manual pull box, etc. Refer to "Edit Detector" on
page 69, "Edit Module Screen for Monitor Module" on page 77, and "Edit Module Screen
for Control Modules" on page 83 for information on additional device types.
•
Second line in display:
– <ADJ>; refers to the user programmed adjective descriptor from library list resident in the
control panel or custom entry via PC.
– <NOUN>; refers to the user programmed noun descriptor from library list resident in the
control panel or custom entry via PC.
•
Third line in display: Z000 indicates the zone programmed to this device which, in this
example, is general alarm Zone 000. Note that a single device can be programmed to five
different zones but only the first zone will be displayed.
•
Fourth line in display:
– Time; the current time in this example is 10:00A which represents 10:00 AM
– Date; the current month, day and year in this example is 01 for January, 08 for the 8th day of
the month, and 10 for the year 2010
– Device Address; 1M001 in this example 1 represents SLC Loop1, M represents a module,
and 001 represents device address 001
4.6 Supervisory Operation
Supervisory operation is similar to alarm operation but with the following differences:
•
The piezo sounder pulses ½ second On and ½ second Off
•
The Supervisory LED flashes ½ second On and ½ second Off
•
The LCD displays the status label Active Supervisory along with the device name, type,
address, adjective/noun, associated zones and time/date
•
The supervisory relay is activated
•
The alarm relay is not activated
•
Silenced alarms are not resounded
•
Timers are not started
•
Store event in history buffer
•
Terminate upload or download communications
•
Supervisory condition must be Acknowledged before the FACP can be reset
A typical Supervisory event would be displayed as illustrated in the following:
Note that, like alarms, supervisory signals latch (except when programmed for supervisory autore-
settable) and can be assigned to software zones. Supervisory alarms do not cause resound as do
other alarm conditions. Open circuits in supervisory wiring are processed by the control panel the
same way as other trouble conditions. Refer to "Alarm Operation" on page 130, for a description of
the information displayed on the control panel LCD.
