The GDP (Graphic Display Panel; Figure 13.9)
provides the staff with a visual representation of
the floor being monitored. GDPs are custom-
made to a facility’s floor plan and notify staff
when an alarm condition occurs in a monitored
zone through a piezo buzzer and alarm-specific
LEDs. Up to 16 Receivers (i.e., 16 zones) can be
linked to a single GDP.
Temperature
A GDP operates best in an ambient temperature
between 35 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Operation outside of this range may cause
unexpected or undesirable results, including
premature failure.
Weight
NOTE: ES 2200 Systems use ESGDPs. To use a
GDP in an ES 2200 System you will need to
replace your ES 2200 Receivers. Contact your
Accutech Representative for more information.
Dependant on facility size and floor layout.
A typical GDP weighs approximately 2 pounds.
Positioning and Mounting a GDP
GDPs display these alarms (or events):
Position the GDP near a centralized staff
location.
