2.10.2 Light Beacon

Located at the top right corner of the system, the Light Beacon is a device that displays system status. The

Beacon has four different colored lights that can be constantly ON or flashing and has an audible alarm.

The colors on the Light Beacon correspond with the System Status LED’s on the Control Panel.

See Table 2-3 for an explanation of each color indication. The Light Beacon can be custom configured to

respond to the I/O states of customer equipment. See 4.16 Beacon Configuration.

" NOTE Software and hardware share control of the Beacon lights. Hardware-driven displays may

override those caused by software conditions and vice versa. Flashing light software

commands have priority over solid light commands.

For instance, if the software program dictates a solid yellow light and the hardware

detects low air pressure requiring a flashing yellow light, the Beacon will flash the

yellow light. A hardware-driven solid yellow light (for a door open condition, for

example) will be overridden by a software command to flash the yellow light.
