The UDACT-100A works by eavesdropping on status communication messages within either the FA-1000 or the FX-2000
fire alarm system. As a consequence of this method of operation, the UDACT-100A reports events slightly differently
depending upon whether it is eavesdropping on an FA-1000 or an FX-2000. Use command Item Number 54 to select between
FA-1000 reporting and FX-2000 reporting. The following sections explain the individual reports generated by the UDACT-
100A when connected to either an FA-1000 or an FX-2000.
Zone Mapping Disabled (Default) (ITEM 16):
example when the zone mapping is disabled. Suppose zones 1 to 3 are alarm zones, zones 4 and 5 are supervisory zones, zone 6 is a
waterflow and zones 7 and 8 are alarm zones. If all the zones activated in order, that is zones 1 to 8, the events are reported as such:
The first digit is the Qualifier (1 is a new event and 3 is restored), the next 3 digits give the type of zone and the last 3 digits give the zone
identification as in the order of those zone types. So that when Zone 4 supervisory went into alarm, the zone identification is 1 since that
is the first supervisory zone. When zone 7 went into alarm, then the zone identification is 4 since it is the fourth alarm zone. When viewing
events all six digits should be recorded for appropriate zone type, not just the last 3 digits which display the zone.
If reporting as explained above is not sufficient (that is unique zone numbers are required), then
refer to the following section Zone Mapping Enabled, otherwise ignore the following section.
Zone Mapping Enabled (ITEM 16) AND CONVENTIONAL PROTOCOL ONLY (ITEM 54):
is required if the receiving station expects sequential zone reporting as shown in the table below. If zone mapping is enabled (by selecting
2 at Item 16 and the FA System Protocol at Item 54), the internal numbering of devices will be mapped to the physical zone and type. This
mapping must be entered. For example, the same scenario as above can be mapped as such: the installer would configure physical zones
1 through 3 as ALARM circuits with circuit numbers 0 through 2, followed by physical zones 4 and 5 as SUPERVISORY NON-LATCHING
with circuit numbers 3 and 4, followed by physical zone 6 as WATERFLOW circuit zone 5 and followed by physical zones 7 and 8 as ALARM
circuits 6 and 7. Use the following table for physical zone and circuit correlation. The table continues, in the same manner beyond zone
24 shown here.
