10.5 Event Priority

This section goes over how event activations are handled by the control panel with regards to priority.
10.5.1

System Control

The 6820 or 6820EVS control panel integrates both a fire and emergency system into one. When events are
active from both systems the control panel makes intelligent decisions to determine which system should be
controlling outputs. This is called System Control. This manual will refer to the fire or emergency systems
having System Control, this means that the system has an active alarm or supervisory event that has a higher
event priority than an active alarm or supervisory event from the other system. For this consideration, the control
panel looks at the highest priority event active on each system. When both systems are active, the system with
control will activate System Override. System Override is activated on the lower priority, non-System Control
panel system (fire or emergency system.)
10.5.2

System Override

System Override temporarily disengages output group activations from the system being overridden. This is
done to not provide conflicting messages and signaling and help with reducing confusion of the building
occupants.
When output groups are supposed to be active but are not because System Control has activated System
Override, they are re-activated every 30 seconds for 2-3 seconds to indicate to the building occupants that there is
