4.5.3.Map Descriptor Example 3 – Zone Status as a numeric value

In this example, the driver stores zone data for any zone. It will store data for all possible states that the panel reports for each of the zones. It will store this information by storing a number in the Data Array. The number can be inspected to determine which states are active.

Map_Descriptor_Name,

Data_Array_Name,

Data_Array_Offset,

For the driver to effectively report the status as a number the Data Array format must be suitable for storing the number. You can use UINT16, UINT32 and FLOAT formats.

This data type tells the driver that this Map Descriptor must be used to store zone status data of any type.

The driver writes a number into the array location for each device. The value of number indicates the status of the zone. The value is based on which bits in the binary number are set.

Bit 0: Abort State

Bit 1: Trouble State

Bit 2: Supervisory State

Bit 3: Zone is disabled

Bit 4: Pre Alarm State

Bit 5: Alarm State

Bit 6: Pre-Discharge State

Bit 7: Release State

Bit 8: Process State

Example : Value = 32 indicates an alarm state

Example : Value = 96 indicates an alarm & pre-discharge state
