LOOP INFORMATION
LOOP NO: –
13.1 Loop Information allows you to define the operation of each protection loop used
in the system. All protection loops, whether located on a command processor
panel, Security Command keypad, or loop expander are programmed the same
way.
A description of each specification follows:
13.2 LOOP NUMBER - Enter the number of the loop you intend to program. Press
COMMAND to enter a loop name. For instructions on entering alphanumeric
characters, see section 1.7.
13.3 LOOP NAME - Loop names can have up to 10 alphanumeric characters. A name
must be given to each loop in the system. The name can display at the keypads
during arming and disarming so the user does not have to memorize loop
numbers. Users can associate a loop name with a particular protection point. A
loop that is not part of the system must be marked unused.
To mark a loop unused, delete the old name by pressing a top row SELECT key,
then press the COMMAND key. The programmer automatically programs the
name as * UNUSED *. If you have already cleared Loop Information during
Initialization, the loops will be marked * UNUSED *. See section 2.5.
13.4 LOOP TYPE - The Loop Type defines the panel's response to the loop being
opened or shorted. This is called the Alarm Action. There are up to 13 possible
alarm action responses depending on the loop type and any restrictions it may
have. See the chart in section 13.4A.
When you assign a Loop Type to a loop, responses are made automatically for
the loop. There are 12 Loop Types to choose from. The functional details of each
response are described in section 13.4A. Application descriptions for each loop
type can be found in the Appendix section of this manual.
To enter a new Loop Type, press a top row SELECT key. The display lists four
Loop Types at a time.
Blank, Night, Day, or Exit. Press COMMAND to display additional loop types.
Fire, Panic, Emergency, or Supervisory. Press COMMAND to display additional
loop types.
Auxiliary 1, Auxiliary 2, Fire Verify, or Arming (keyswitch). Press the ARROW key
to display the previous loop types.
When the Loop Type you want to select is displayed, press the SELECT key
beneath it. The chart in section 13.4A gives a detailed outline of the Alarm Action
for each Loop Type.
If you select Blank, Night, Day, Exit, Auxiliary 1, Auxiliary 2, or Arming as the
Loop Type, the loop must be assigned to an area so it can be armed and
disarmed.
If you select Fire, Panic, Emergency, or Supervisory as the Loop Type, it's a 24
hour loop that is always armed and no area assignment is needed. Press
COMMAND to continue.
