Process Monitor Operation Operating Instructions
A typical Supervisory event would be displayed as illustrated in the following:
Note that, like alarms, supervisory signals latch (except when programmed for supervisory autore-
settable) and can be assigned to software zones. Supervisory alarms do not cause resound as do
other alarm conditions. Open circuits in supervisory wiring are processed by the control panel the
same way as other trouble conditions. Refer to “Alarm Operation” on page 153, for a description
of the information displayed on the control panel LCD.
4.7 Process Monitor OperationProcess Monitor operation will initiate the following events:
• The piezo sounder pulses ¼ second On and ¼ second Off
• The LCD displays a process monitor message along with the device name, type, address,
adjective/noun, associated zones and time/date
• Relays programmed for process monitoring will be activated
• The alarm relay is not activated
• Silenced alarms are not resounded
• Timers are not started
• Store event in history buffer
• Process Monitor condition must be Acknowledged before the FACP can be reset
Note that, like supervisories, process monitor signals latch (except when programmed for process
monitor autoresettable) and can be assigned to software zones.
4.8 Hazard Condition OperationHazard Condition operation will initiate the following events:
• The piezo sounder turns on steady
• The LCD displays a hazard message along with the device name, type, address,
adjective/noun, associated zones and time/date
• Relays programmed for process monitoring will be activated
• The alarm relay is not activated
• Silenced alarms are not resounded
• Timers are not started
• Store event in history buffer
• Hazard condition must be Acknowledged before the FACP can be reset
Hazard conditions latch and will therefore clear only when the hazard condition is cleared and the
panel reset. They can be assigned to software zones.
