Communications [56]
Comm Fail Time [56.1.3]
Use this option to set the length of time that the system has available to get any message to
the ARC via all the programmed paths before the COMM FAIL message event is generated
and recorded in the event log. This time does not prevent the system from continuing to try
to send the message according to the programmed receiver sequence.
Line Path Fail [56.1.4]
Use this option to set the line fail autotest IP paths of GPRS and Ethernet receivers. This
option modifies when a line fail condition is generated following failures to complete the
periodic autotest signaling to the ARC. Autotest signals on IP paths are sent much more
often and are considered more as a 'heartbeat' poll to determine the presence of the virtual
line to the ARC. Failure of a heartbeat poll creates a heartbeat fail in the panel, which is
treated as a line fail condition. It may be necessary to create a failure in certain
circumstances only when there are multiple IP paths and/or destinations as a failure on one
alone may be expected from time to time and not be significant.
1=Receiver Select a single receiver. If the receiver you select fails on any single
attempt to send an autotest then a heartbeat fail event will be generated.
Failure of attempts to other receivers will not generate a hearbeat fail. The
default is 1 and the range is 1 to 9.
2=All Select all receivers. In this case all the IP paths that have autotest enabled
need to fail before the panel signals a heartbeat fail event.
