4.5.6.Map Descriptor Example 6 - Device States as a Numeric Value

In this example all the devices of loop 1 have the state storage defined by this Map Descriptor. Device 63, for example would have its state stored at the 64th location of the Data Array specified.

The array’s format must be suitable for storing the state number which can range from 0-15.

Thus BYTE, UINT16, UINT32 and FLOAT are suitable formats for the Data Array.

The Any keyword tells the driver to store the device state as a number

The value of the number indicates the device state. The number is a binary number and its value is determined by which bits are set.

Bit 0: Alarm

Bit 1: Pre-Alarm

Bit 2: Trouble

Example: Value 4 indicates the device is in a trouble state.

4.5.7.Map Descriptor Example 7 – Panel Data

This example provides a Map Descriptor which tells the driver where to store the non-zone/device specific data obtained from a panel. Appendix A.5 of the manual maps how the data is stored. Ensure that the Data Array is long enough to store all the data.
