6.6.1 Alarm Source
Unison always acts an alarm source, no matter what type of equipment you are con-
necting to. Refer to Section 6.6.2 on page 6-33 if you want Unison Accel to sense
LGCell contact closures or other external alarms.
Using MetroReach Focus to Monitor Unison Accel
When you connect MetroReach Focus to Unison Accel, the Unison Accel Hub is the
output of the alarms (alarm source) and Focus is the input (alarm sense), as shown in
the following figure. Focus supports only faults (major errors).
