Tips for Adding a QIF-1000
• The Local checkbox will only be available if the current device is designated as local or no local ID has been
added.
• The utility checks if the ID you specified already exists. If it does, you will be prompted to change it. When
adding a new QIF-1000, the utility will automatically display the next available un-used switch. If there are no
available switches, the utility will display the value of 1.
• The switch number you specify for the QIF-1000 must not be used by any input, zone, or the QDV. The
configuration utility will check the switch number you chose and tell you if it cannot be used. Checking or
unchecking the QDV Installed checkbox in the System Configuration Window has no effect on this restriction.
• Although the utility allows you to change and configure QIF-1000 IDs as desired, they must start at 1 and they
must be contiguous. The validation process checks the integrity of the QIF-1000 local and remote IDs.
Note: If you are adding any QIF-1000 to the system, there should be at least two: one local and one remote.
