Where “<A>” is the number of the releasing circuit output.

Normal/Cross-Zoning

Each releasing circuit can be set up for the normal or cross zoned operation. In NORMAL operation, any alarm initiating zone including LOW AIR ALARM mapped to a releasing output must be in alarm before the output is activated. In cross zoned operation ALL initiating zones mapped to the releasing circuit must be in alarm before the output is activated. An initiating zone previously described as “MANUAL RELEASE” will override the cross zoning feature.

Press the bottom button to skip to the next function

This display is where the outputs are mapped to the initiating zones. Any output that was previously described as “RELEASING” or “ALARM INDICATING” can be mapped to any initiating zones that were described as alarm zones, including zones programmed as “LOW AIR ALARM”.

Any initiating zone that was described as supervisory will automatically be mapped to outputs described as “SUPERVISORY BELL”, including zones programmed as “LOW AIR ALARM”. The “V” is pointing to the first available output for the zone indicated on the display. If the output number is displayed, it is turned on for that zone. If the number is not displayed, it is turned off. If an output is not available for that zone, i.e. “SUPERVISORY BELL”, the “V” will skip to the next available output.

SET

Press the SET button to set the output to the zone displayed and move to the next available output.

SELECT

FUNCTION

Press the SELECT button to turn the output either on or off (the output number will be displayed when turned on).

Press the bottom button to skip to the next function.

After all available outputs for the zone displayed are mapped, the display will automatically change to the next zone. After mapping the last zone or skipping to the next function, the following will appear in the display window:
