The IDNet options allow the use of addressable devices and TrueAlarm sensors with the
4100ES FIP. Addressable devices communicate the exact location of an alarm to the system
operator interface panel, improving recognition of the condition and subsequent response. It
also pinpoints the precise location of fault conditions via the device custom label. Throughout
this section, operations described for IDNet are also applicable for Mapnet.
When an IDNet device changes to an abnormal condition, or the operator enters an IDNet
device address, the LCD display shows the current status of the IDNet device. After entering
an IDNet device address, press the <MORE> soft key on the operator interface panel to
display additional device information.
Each IDNet device must have a point address in order to communicate with the 4100ES FIP.
These point addresses along with their custom labels are located in the Programmers Report.
The Programmers Report shows the address for each device, separated by hyphens. Hyphens
must be used when entering an IDNet address into the system. An example of an IDNet device
address is "M1-5". The "M1" portion of the address identifies the IDNet loop or channel, loop
1 or channel 1. The "5" portion of the address, identifies the device number, number 5.
Note: Multipoint IDNet devices use sub-point addressing. These sub-points are
addressed as C-DD-S, where S is the sub-point. Example: A FRIAM device has a
relay at sub-point 1 and an input at sub-point 2 which would be accessed as M1-5-1
and M1-5-2 respectively.
See Chapter 4, "Selecting Points for Status or Control" for IDNet operations.
If an IDNet device will not reset, you may decide to disable the point. When the disable
procedure is performed, a System Fault occurs to remind you that the point is disabled. The
disable procedure is the same for all system points (see Section 5, "Disabling and Enabling
Points "). Maintenance personnel must be called immediately to repair the malfunction.
After the IDNet point is repaired, you can enable the point again.
Using the 4100ES InfoAlarm display and the display/action keys, the control panel can
display various status conditions for each TrueAlarm sensor, including the sensor's present
selected sensitivity level as a percent of obscuration per foot (% OBS/ft). This selected
sensitivity level is the value at which the FIP will cause an alarm condition. Seven sensitivity
levels are available for the TrueAlarm photo-electric sensor. The most sensitive setting is
0.2% OBS/FT (0.5% OBS/m) with the least sensitive setting being 3.7% OBS/FT (12%
OBS/m).
The following example shows the detailed information being retrieved for an IDNet detector.
