4: Key Report Descriptions; Type Mode - Fire-Lite UDACT-F Instruction Manual

Type Mode

The UDACT-F is supplied factory programmed with the reports identified above as item numbers 2, 4, 7, 20, 22 and
25 set to zero, preventing the reports from being transmitted for the pulsed and Ademco Express formats. These
reports are factory programmed for active transmission when using the Ademco Contact ID.
4.1.4 Key Report Descriptions
UDACT-F Off Normal Report
Removing the UDACT-F from Normal Mode and placing it into Program or Troubleshoot Mode causes the transmis-
sion of a 'UDACT-F Off Normal' fault message. Returning the UDACT-F to Normal Mode causes a transmission of a
'UDACT-F Return to Normal' restoral message.
Panel Off Normal Report
The UDACT-F will report a 'System Off Normal' report when the host FACP temporarily shuts down the EIA-485
communications bus during various aspects of system programming or during Walktesting. When the host FACP is
returned to normal, restoring the fire protection, the UDACT-F will report a 'System Off Normal Restoral' report.
System Test Report
The UDACT-F will transmit a test message to both Central Stations at programmed intervals (typically every 24
hours). Should there exist an abnormal condition in the fire alarm system (such as an alarm, trouble or supervisory
condition) at the time when the test report is due to be transmitted, the UDACT-F will report the 'System Abnormal
Test Report'. If the system is normal, the report transmitted will be the normal 'System Test Report'.
EIA-485 Communications Trouble Report
The UDACT-F supervises the integrity of the information received from the FACP via the EIA-485 communications
bus. Should the communications bus malfunction, the UDACT-F transmits the report '485 Comm Trouble'. When the
communications bus returns to proper operation, the UDACT-F will report '485 Comm Trouble Restoral'.
4.2 Type Mode
Type Mode may be used to disable reports by zone or point and to identify the specific functionality of each zone or
point in the system. Factory default for all zones/points is Fire Alarm. Use Type Mode to identify the function of
each zone or point as follows:
• General Fire Alarm
• Supervisory
• Pull Stations
• Heat Detectors
• Waterflows
• Duct Detectors
• Flame Sensor
• Smoke Zone
To access Type Mode, press the MODE key followed by the 4-digit code 8973 and then press the [ENTER/STORE]
key. The UDACT-F will display three digits. For example, initial entry will display 01 0.
