7.0 Boolean Equations for Mass
Notification
Boolean equations are used to control the virtual zones that drive the activation of outputs
across groups. Using the Advanced Logic Editor dialog, an equation can be composed and
applied to an output circuit or a local input zone. This is done by specifying any number of local
and remote inputs zones and local input circuits (operands) and Boolean expressions
(operators).
When the result of the equation from an evaluation of the TRUE/FALSE state of all inputs is
TRUE the associated output will be energized. Note that applying an equation directly to an
output bypasses all of the regular input to output correlation processing.
Also note that the use of advanced logic does not modify the code at an executive level. These
equations are parsed and checked for syntax before being sent to the panel. The virtual input
is correlated to signals or other outputs as usual and the standard fire alarm processing is
performed by the executive control routine.
