• Failed to Close: A scheduled area not set to auto-
arm was not armed manually at the scheduled
time.
• Force Arm: Pertaining to arming while a
point/sensor is tripped (or tampered).
• In Window / Out of Window: Simplistic: Working
hours vs. after-hours. Detail: Pertaining to during
vs. outside of the active/valid times of a schedule.
• Pseudo: Internally-monitored conditions. (Ref:
Configuration ÖSystem ÖEquipment).
• SIP: Reporting to a central station via IP.
• SNAPP: Module communications bus.
• Version E: This indicates conditions pertaining to
European monitoring requirements.
Output Action:
• "Normal": Relay follows the event--Positive
trigger (normally 0V/Low, goes +V/High
when triggered);
• Green "+" durations: Timed--Positive
trigger (normally 0V/Low, goes +V/High for
selected duration when triggered);
• "Inverted": Relay follows the event--
Inverted (normally +V/High, goes 0v/Low
when triggered);
• Red "-" durations (with underscore "_"):
Timed--Inverted (normally +V/High, goes
0v/Low for selected duration when
triggered);
• "Toggle": Changes state until next trigger.
For a Point Expansion Module with Physical Relays:
In the description above, "0V/Low" will pertain to "relay
not energized", and "+V/High" will pertain to "relay
energized".
Also See
: "Cadence (Getting the Output to Pulse On
and Off)", and "Equations with Cadence (pulsing)",
both to follow / below.
Commands (when you right-click an item):
• Toggle Invert: Inserts (or removes) a "NOT"
("Not means whenever the chosen condition is
NOT true);
• Insert Operation (on left / on right): Inserts a new
segment to allow building complex output
equations (see below);
• Remove Operation: Deletes an inserted segment.
This appears only if you right-click a bracket or an
"And/Or" operator (Boolean).
For (deepest nested) brackets, or an "And/Or"
Operator inside them:
The condition on the right
side within the brackets
will be removed.
For (external) brackets, or an "And/Or"
Operator preceding a bracketed function:
The entire bracketed function on the right
will be
removed.
Also see "Multi-Condition Equations", and
"Brackets and Equation Processing", to follow /
below.
Cadence (Getting the Output to Pulse
On and Off)
(≥V4.2):
Three 'Cadence' selections are provided that
cause the e quation to 'Go False' o n a
repeating cycle, thus causing the output to
pulse. These appear at the end/bottom of the
list for the SYST EM even t type. Cadence
functions must be inserted using "Insert
Operation", and then set as an " AND"
operation.
For more information, see "Multi-Condition
Equations", and "Equations with Cadence
(pulsing)", both to follow / below.
Siren Fire Cadence
: Outputs can also be set to follow
siren-fire conditions with 1 sec., or 2 sec. on/off pulses.
These can be selected directly instead of using
'System - Cadence'. If the siren output itself (OP3 on
the main panel) is set to System - Siren Fire (1 sec),
this sets 'fire-siren' cadence for UL (3 quick pulses
separated by 1 second pauses).
Multi-Condition Equations:
To insert additional conditions into an equation, right-
click within a condition/segment near your desired
insertion point, and select Insert Operation on left or
Insert Operation on right, as desired).
e.g., (Condition1 AND
(Condition2 OR
Condition3)) => OutputAction
Tip
: In this case, condition 3 was inserted after right-
clicking within condition 2, and selecting "Insert
Operation on right".
Notes
: "Condition" represents a complete function
(such as "AREA Area1 In Alarm").
An equation can include up to 15
'conditions'.
