2.3.2Route Number Groups: Which Has the Highest Priority?

To program a group, first choose a route number. The lower the route number, the higher priority that group has (for example, events reported for Route 1 have a higher priority than Routes 2, 3, or 4 if each group tries to send a message at the same time). The priority of the route numbers becomes important when programming duplicate reports or choosing the events you want to report first regardless of the number of events that must report to multiple groups. Route 1 group primary device is the first destination the control panel attempts to dial if an event in that group must be reported. If the control panel is idle, any event generated for any group starts a dialing sequence.

2.3.3Programming Primary and Backup Destinations

Each route number has an R# Primary Device and an R# Backup Device. In typical applications where two phone numbers are programmed, the R# Primary Device destination is the phone number that the route group attempts to dial first. If the R# Primary Device destination does not connect to the central station receiver after two dialing attempts, the control panel dials the R# Backup Device destination.

You can also program the control panel so that the R# Primary Device or the R# Backup Device uses an SDI device, such as a D4020 Network Interface Module.

2.3.4Enhanced Routing

The D9412GV2 and D7412GV2 allow events to be sent to up to four additional SDI Paths. The network interface module (NIM) connects directly to the SDI Bus and occupies SDI Address 88. For additional information regarding the specific programming requirements for enhanced communications, refer to Section 2.4 Enhanced Routing on page 24 and Section 6.5 Programming Path Numbers and IP Addresses for Enhanced Communications on page 135.

2.3.5Programming a Duplicate Report

Select Yes for each available route number to allow an event within a group to send a report to multiple groups. For instance, if fire alarms are programmed for Route Group 1 and Route Group 2, a fire alarm sends a report first to Route Group 1, followed by a duplicate report to Route Group 2.

2.3.6Routing Destination Communication Failures

When the R# Primary Device fails to connect with the central station after one or two attempts (refer to RG# 1 Attempt in Route Group Attempts on page 139), it then attempts to connect with the R# Backup Device (phone number or SDI Path). The central station receives the original event with a COMM FAIL PHONE# = (1, 2, 3, or 4) event modifier, if the R# Primary Device destination is a phone number.

If the R# Primary Device is an SDI Path, the central station receives the original event with a COMM FAIL RG# SDI## (SDI 88 + Path 1, SDI 89 = Path 2,

SDI 90 = Path 3, SDI 91 = Path 4) event modifier. When all attempts to both the R# Primary Device and R# Backup Device fail, a Comm Fail RG# Event is generated. Comm Restore Events are not generated.

2.3.7Message Prioritization within a Route Number

The D9412GV2/D7412GV2 Control Panels meet the digital reporting requirements for UL 864. Fire Alarm Events have the highest priority and reports are sent first for each group. Other events are sent in the following order: Panic, Duress, Medical, Intrusion Alarm, Supervisory, and all troubles and restorals.

To comply with NFPA and UL 864 , program Route 1 to send a report of only Fire Alarm Events to ensure the fastest reporting time.

2.3.8Dialing Attempts

The control panel makes up to ten dialing attempts using the primary and backup devices within a route group. If unsuccessful, it sends a Comm Fail Report. The dialing attempts occur in the following sequence:

1.Primary device

2.Primary device

3.Backup device

4.Backup device

5.Primary device

6.Backup device

7.Primary device

8.Backup device

9.Primary device

10.Backup device

When only one destination is programmed, the control panel makes ten attempts to contact that destination. Each group takes approximately 10 min to go into Comm Fail.
