Example A: With "(Condition1 AND (Condition2 OR 
Condition3))" the output will trigger only if Condition2 
or 3 (or both) is in effect at the same time as 
Condition1. 
Example B: With "((Condition1 OR
 Condition2) 
AND
 (Condition3 OR Condition4))" the output will 
trigger if at least one item from each side of the "AND" 
is in effect at the same time. 
Example C: If you start with example B, right-
click Condition1, select "Insert Operation on 
right" , and set it as an AND function, you will 
have: "(((Condition1 AND NewCondition) OR
Condition2) AND
 (Condition3 OR 
Condition4))". 
The equation would be evaluated in this order:  
1) C1 AND
 New; 2) Result1 OR C2; 3) C3 OR 
C4; 4) Result2 AND
 Result3. 
Note: The deepest-nested brackets are analyzed first. 
Equations with Cadence (pulsing) 
To obtain a pulsing output, System - Cadence 
functions must be "ANDed" with the portion of the 
equation to which they apply. If all conditions of the 
equation are to cause a pulsing output, the cadence 
function should be set up first, with everything else 
appearing within a pair of brackets on the left or right. 
Tip
: "ANDing" different cadence selections (or none) 
with the various segments of an otherwise "OR" 
equation allows a single output to respond differently 
to different types of events. 
For one type of cadence for an entire equation 
(for example): 
 Set up a System - Cadence function first; 
Also See: "Cadence (Getting the Output to Pulse On 
and Off)", previous/above. 
 Right-click within it, and select Add 
Operation on right; 
 Set up the second operation as desired, 
being sure to use an "AND" operator; 
 Insert any other operations by right-clicking 
on segments to the right of the cadence 
function (not within the cadence function 
itself).

EMERG and provides 1 sec on/off for FIRE 
per Keypad Tone. Exception
: If selected for 
the siren output (#3 on main panel), this 
enables UL fire-cadence: ½ sec on/off three 
times, 1sec pause, and repeats. 
System  Siren Fire (2 sec.) 
Follows ALARM siren - steady for BURG / 
EMERG and provides 2 sec on/off for FIRE 
System Digital Trouble
