Figure 57: The Module Apollo I/O Settings Screen
The address and sub-address of an I/O device is determined by where the device is entered into the
table in the Panel Node X Controller (address) and the Sensor Input/Output device (sub-address)
screens.
The drop down screen under the heading of Zone Configuration (Zone Config) in the Sensor
Input/Output device screen (double click on the + icon in the Panel Node X Controller screen)
consists of;
General: General is selected when a non alarm calling device is used or where an input / output is
used in a “Function”. The change of state at the input is actioned and entered into the Logs.
Inactive: Sets the input so that it will not respond to a change of state at the input. An example of its
use would be where one or two inputs of a 3 I/O device are not used.
Latching: If an alarm is initiated the alarm condition input will be considered to be on by the FACP,
will be displayed on the LCD, is entered into the Logs and requires manual “Acknowledgement” and
“Reset”.
Non-latching: If an alarm is initiated the alarm condition input will be considered to be on until the
alarm input is removed, the input will then be seen to be in its normal state and the FACP will display
the condition on the LCD, is entered into the Logs and automatically “Acknowledges” the alarm.
Fault: If a fault condition is seen at the input to the I/O it will initiate the fault sequence as set in the
configuration, display the condition on the LCD, enters it into the Logs and automatically
“Acknowledges” the fault.
To view and print the settings select the icon and print.
