For all formats, the 'general' reports are always transmitted (unless disabled). The
zone or point information may follow the general report if enabled.
For all pulsed formats and both Ademco Express formats, the zone/point report is
repeated per the total number of zones or points activated once factory default
entries of zero are removed. See Tables 3-2, 3-3, 3-4, 3-5, 3-6 and 3-7. When
Ademco Contact ID format is used, the actual zone or point activated is identified
in the report.
The UDACT-F comes 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 a transmission of an 'UDACT off normal' fault message.
Returning the UDACT-F to Normal Mode causes a transmission of a 'UDACT 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.'
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
