Configuration
Trouble Group: The high level of flexibility that is provided with the Protege System allows the definition of
the trouble type and group that is generated by a trouble input. Troubles are grouped by a trouble group
and then a trouble type within the group. When the trouble input generates an alarm it will also generate the
appropriate trouble condition that is configured. The trouble group and type are used to generate trouble
conditions on the keypad and to prevent an area from Arming based on the trouble condition.
1- General: The General Trouble group consists of the trouble types that are part of the main system
operation. Trouble conditions such as AC Failure, Real Time Clock and Bell Output Troubles belong to
this group and are assigned the General Trouble Group and the appropriate trouble type from the group
by default.
2- System: The System Trouble group is used for module related system messages, hardware faults
and other system conditions that do not belong in the general trouble group.
3 - Access: The Access Control trouble group consists of the trouble conditions that are related to
access control and door operation these include door forced open, door left open and number of
attempts are some of the trouble types.
Trouble Group Options: When a trouble input is assigned to a trouble group it can then have a trouble type
within the group assigned. The trouble input types belong to the trouble groups, selecting a trouble group
will allow the appropriate trouble type from that group to be selected. The following trouble types are shown
for each of the three groups below.
