Priority Rules

1. Event priorities can be changed only within, not between, priority levels (defined by bold lines in Table 10-
1).
2. Emergency LOC Alarm must always higher than Emergency 1-8 Point Alarm and Emergency Voice Aux 1-
4 Alarm.
3. EVS events do not need to be in order by EVS number.
10.5.5

Other Priority Considerations

There are other considerations to take into account when the same event is acting on the same output group (an
event being mapped to an output group.) These are prioritized in order of appearance:
• Event priority is considered here based on the Event Priority Table.
• If an output group is mapped both directly and through an output group template to an event, the direct map
gets priority. Example: Template 1 Contains Group 1. Zone 1 Manual Pull is mapped to Template 1 and
Group 1 using constant and ANSI patterns respectively. If Zone 1 Manual Pull is active, Group 1 will output
ANSI.
• When an event is mapped to an output group from multiple zones, the lower numbered zone gets priority.
Example: Zone 1 Manual Pull and Zone 2 Manual Pull are mapped to Group 1 using constant and ANSI
patterns respectively. If Zone 1 and Zone 2 Manual Pull events are active, Group 1 will output constant.

10.6 Operation Mode Behavior

The control panel can be in one or more of seven conditions at any given moment: Normal, Alarm, Prealarm,
Supervisory, Trouble, Silenced, and Reset. Table 10-2 describes the behavior of the panel in each of these modes.
When looking at the LCD, the screen will display FIRE for the "Fire System", CO for the "CO System" and
EMGY for "Emergency Communication System". The highest priority event will display first and include the
event count.
Press the down arrow to view the location and type of alarm, supervisory, or trouble. If the panel is programmed
to Auto Display Event, information describing the highest priority active event will display on the first two lines.
The 3 and 4th line will show the status of which event types are active for each system (fire, CO and emergency
