For version 4.107 and above, the control key feedback includes
Output states, Analog Input values and Counter Values in addition to
Input states.

RangeAnnouncement Feedback Value
To announce an Input state, just enter the Input number in the
feedback location for the control key.
To announce the value of an Analog Input, add 64 to the Input number
to put into the feedback Location. For example, to announce the value
of Input 8, enter 64+8=72 into the feedback Location. Note that only
the inputs on the Main Control panel and Slave modules are valid
analog inputs, but not the Local Expansion Module (LEM) Inputs. Analog
Inputs range from 0 to 255 (corresponding to 5 Volts). Analog Inputs
must be set to Double End of Line Resistor with the zone shunts.
To announce the state of an Output (on/off), add 128 to the Output
number to put into the feedback Location. For example, to announce
the state of Output 8, enter 128+8=136 into the feedback location.
To announce the value of a counter, add 192 to the counter number to
put into the feedback Location. For example to announce the value in
Counter 16, put 16+128=144 into the feedback Location. Counter
numbers start from 0. “Master 4.107” and above versions have 32
counters while “Outside 4.107” and above versions have 64 counters.
Versions prior to 4.107 had only 8 counters. The value of the counter
announced will be in the range 0 to 255. For Outside versions with
UCM, the C! Command can set the value of any counter to any number
from 0 to 255 and the C? Command can get the value of any counter.
The use of counters from 4.107 has been greatly enhanced. Counters
can represent any numerical quantity, for example temperature which
can be announced on the Control menu as a feedback value.
Table 27 - Holidays (Engineer Menu 3,2)
Comfort allows 24 Holidays to be programmed. Holidays tags are used
in Time Programs and Reminder Messages.
A Holiday is recognised by the system as whenever the system is
armed to Holiday Mode or from the specific dates which are
pre-programmed into the Holiday Settings Menu (Eng Menu 3,2). If the
Holiday flag is set within a Time Program, the programmed event will
occur only on a Holiday, regardless of the days which may be set.
If Comfort is armed to Holiday Mode, the system regards the day of
week as a Holiday, this means that Time Programs and Reminder
Messages which are ‘Holiday Flagged’ will operate as if it is a holiday.
