Input Assignments:

Each output channel can have alarm inputs assigned in several methods:
• Inp. No.
Individually, one input per output
-used with individual lamp and individual relay outputs
All
All alarm inputs in the system
-used with Group Lamps, First Up Lamps, Group Relays, Horns, Clear Horns and
Reflash Outputs
• Input Grp
This is used to select a group of alarm inputs that are multiplexed together to trigger
some output. The output follows Boolean OR logic, so that any one input in the group will
trigger that output. Enter the group of inputs with commas to separate inputs (1,2,3,4 etc)
or dashes (1-4) for a group of alarm or combinations of both (1-4,5,9). Up to 32 digits
may be entered including commas and dashes.
-used with Group Lamps, First Up Lamps, Group Relays, Horns, Clear Horns and
Reflash Outputs
• No. of Inputs
This is used in conjunction with the Input Group above. It is used to apply Boolean
AND/OR Logic to the group of Inputs or used to apply Voting Logic. Examples below.
Example of AND Logic:
If the quantity of inputs in the group is equal to 5, a setting of 5 requires all 5 inputs to be
in alarm before triggering the output.
Example of OR Logic:
If the quantity of inputs in the group is equal to 5, a setting of 1 requires any one of the 5
inputs to be in alarm before triggering the output.
Example of Voting Logic:
If the quantity of inputs in the group is equal to 5, a setting of 3 requires a minimum of 3
inputs to be in alarm before triggering the output.
