Point Read

Selecting 2 from the Read Status Menu allows the operator to review the various detector, module, software

Upon entering the address, the system will display a distinct screen format, depending on the particular type
of device being read, as illustrated below:

Detector Verification

If verification is enabled for this point, the V indicator appears and the 3-digit counter shows the number of times
the verification timer was activated for the point without going into alarm . The counter returns to zero when power
is cycled to the AM2020/AFP1010 or by following the procedure in the Resetting Sensor Verification Counters
section of this document. If you disable verification, the counter will retain its last value. If verification is not
enabled for this point, the V indicator does not appear; however, the 3-digit number still appears. Note that the
counter does not increment unless verification is enabled.
A detector may be in periodic test during a read status. In this case, the detector status will be
normal but the percentage of alarm threshold will be greater than 100%. If this happens, wait one
