*80 Menu Mode: Defining Output Functions

Use this mode to program output function definitions (up to 12 functions) that provide automated
control of any of the output devices, based on events occurring on individual zones or zones with certain
zone types. Each output definition is identified by an output function number, and includes the
following components:
Output Definition Components
Component
Output Function No.
Activated By
Event
Partition
Output Action
Output No.
For example, if you want to pulse a strobe light upon fire alarms on zone 4 using a relay mapped to
output number 2 (as programmed in *79 Menu Mode), program the following in *80 Menu Mode:
Prompt
Output Funct. #
Activated By:
Enter Zn No.
Output Action

Start Output Definition mode by pressing
prompts are displayed:

Description
A reference number that defines an output's characteristics.
Determines whether the initiating event occurs on a zone, a zone list, or a zone type.
Event that triggers the output action. Can be an event occurring on a specific zone
number or a zone list or a specific zone type.
If the output is activated by zone type, this defines the partition in which the
programmed event is to cause the device action.
Defines the action of the relay/X-10 device when the defined event occurs. Can close
for 2 seconds, stay closed until reset, continuously pulse (1-second close-open-close-
open, etc.), toggle the device state, or activate for a defined duration (set in data field
*177).
Assigns this function to a specific output number (defined in *79 Menu Mode). This is
the output number that will perform this function upon the triggering event. Note
that each defined function is associated with only one output number. This means
that if more than one output device needs to perform this particular function, you
need to define another output function number with the same attributes, but assign
the appropriate output number. (i.e. output devices can be assigned more than one
function number, but each function number can only be assigned a single output
number.
