5.2 Enable/Disable Inputs
This function allows you to enable or disable an input’s response
to an alert condition. An enabled input will respond to an alert
condition and allow dial-out. A disabled input will cause dial-out
to be suppressed, but any existing alert conditions will be revealed
during the Status Report. Enable/disable programming is useful
during wiring of inputs (see Chapter 2) or when a condition needs
to be monitored, but is not critical enough to be programmed for
dial-out reporting. It is important to verify input status after
performing any task that requires disabling. The default setting for
all inputs is enabled (ON).
If an alert condition exists when inputs are re-enabled,
Recognition Time will restart—refer to Section 5.3.
