Operating Instructions
NOTE: Where #N represents the number of zones or devices in alarm or trouble. This is valid for
all formats except Ademco Contact ID.
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
Table 3.2 through Table 3.7. When Ademco Contact ID format is used, the actual zone or point
activated is identified in the report.
The UDACT 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 OFF Normal Report
Removing the UDACT from Normal Mode and placing it into Program, Type or Troubleshoot
Mode causes a transmission of a "UDACT Off Normal" fault message. Returning the UDACT to
Normal Mode causes a transmission of a "UDACT return to normal" restoral message.
Panel OFF Normal Report
The UDACT will send a "System off normal" report when the host FACP indicates it has gone
"OFF Normal" during various aspects of system programming, on most panels. When the host
FACP is returned to normal, restoring the fire protection, the UDACT will report a "System off
normal restoral" report.
System Test Report
The UDACT will transmit a test report 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 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 supervises the integrity of the information received from the FACP via the EIA-485
communications bus. Should the communications bus malfunction or be temporarily disabled (as
during programming of the System 500 and 5000 panel), the UDACT transmits the report "485
comm trouble". When the communications bus returns to proper operation, the UDACT will report
"485 comm trouble restoral".
4.2 Type Mode
CAUTION:The UDACT fire protection and reporting capabilities are inactive while in 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 via Ademco Contact ID format. Factory default for all zones is
Fire Alarm. Use Type Mode to identify the function of each zone or point as follows:
52
General fire alarm
Supervisory
Pull stations
Heat detectors
Burglary
24 hour non-burglary
High temperature
Low temperature
