F.1 What are Type Codes?
Type Codes are software selections for initiating devices (detectors and monitor modules) and
output devices (control modules and NACs). Some Type Codes are self-explanatory; that is, the
Type Code matches the function of the device, such as a "Monitor" for a monitor module, "Photo"
for a photoelectric detector, and so on. Type codes also provide special functions, such as activating
switches, solenoids, and control panel functions.
F.2 How to Select a Type Code
You select a Type Code through the Point Programming screen. For instructions, refer to "Modify
an Addressable Detector Point" on page 20.
F.3 In this Appendix
This appendix contains detailed descriptions of Type Codes for input and output devices, as listed
below:
