IFG Functionality
3.11 Local/External mode functionality
Local/External functionality is selected via the AutroSafe configuration
tool, as default, it is switched off (Local mode only). When switched
on, the system toggles between the following modes:
External mode: AutroSafe is operating together with an external
system (with no communication faults or internal faults). The external
system is able to control extinguishing agent activation. The External
mode extinguishing agent delay is controlled by a configured
activation delay parameter called External Activation Delay (default
delay: 60 seconds).
Local mode: An external system is either disconnected or has
internal faults and the system is not able to control extinguishing agent
activation. The Local mode extinguishing agent activation delay is
controlled by the configured extinguishing agent activation delay
parameter mentioned above (default delay: 10 seconds).
3.12 Support for MicroPack Video Switch
The video switch is only activated by external equipment (AutroOS)
via AutroCom. The activation signal has additional information
regarding switch settings to route the video signal to a given channel.
3.13 Language
The panels prepared for the Oil and Gas market are available in
English only (no localized-language variants exist).
NB. In order for Oil and Gas functionality to be available, “Eng. Oil &
Gas” must be selected in the language menu in the AutroSafe
Configuration Tool (Select Language).
