Cause
Each Output Group can be programmed to respond in a unique way to events from each individual zone. An
input event may be a fire alarm condition or it may be a fault, disablement or other condition. A combination of
criteria may also be applied to each zone.
The Cause field determines what type of input event (or a combination of input events) will generate an output
response for the selected input zone.
