3.3.9 Transponder Communications Screen

From the central console, it is possible to perform detailed diagnostic tests using the Transponder Communications Screen. From this screen, the operator can request maps indicating the status of each device connected to a given transponder, and can control individual devices, turning LED’s, horns, strobes, and sirens on and off. The Transponder Communications Screen appears on the right when it is opened, allowing the History Screen to be viewed while the screen is open. This makes it possible to view the results of map commands issued from the console.

Map Commands

Diagnostic map commands are used to determine the status of all devices (connected to the selected transponder) with a single command. Maps are displayed on the History Screen as an array of rows and columns, corresponding to point addresses and bus numbers. The status of a particular device is shown by a “1” or “0” (zero) with “1” signifying the true state. The map location, corresponding to a device that is not responding to the transponder, contains a “1” when a Not Responding Map is selected.

Similarly, a “1” is displayed in response to a Tamper Map in locations that correspond to devices in a tampered state. All other locations display a “0” (zero), “a” — (if there is no device assigned to the location), or a “x”, there is a device connected to the system at that address, but it is not in the Transponder Database.
