5.3.3 Day/Night Settings
If Day/Night settings are not required then this section may be ignored. If they are required select the
icon and the screen below will be displayed.
Figure 59: The Day / Night Settings page (Note Sensitivity & Mode Default Settings)
To activate the day/night settings on a device, click in the Day/Night column in the spreadsheet, this
will toggle between Y and N, set the entry to Y.
XP 95 & FastSense Day / Night Settings: The two sliders on the right of the page show the
Day/Night sensitivity settings; by moving them you change the values in the Day/Sens. and
Night/Sens. Columns. The lower the number the more sensitive the detector. The number is a
percentage of the normal level of the initiating factor that would cause an alarm. E.g. an analogue
return value of 55 for an alarm would return approximately 47 for a setting of 80%. Once set the
sensitivity has to be enabled via the Function Menu on the panel for it to take control.
Discovery Day / Night Mode Settings: Selecting a Discovery device will enter a default value of 3
for both day and night. To set it for a particular mode click on the inserted number, delete and enter
a new value between 1 and 5. Entering any other value will result in an error message, delete the
entry and re-enter. E.g. In relation to Smoke detectors the least sensitive setting is Mode 5 while
Mode 1 is the most sensitive.
Note: MCP’s will return a default value of 15; this value can not be changed.
