Control/Sequence Group:
This is used to assign the control input to any of 8 groups. The groups correspond to specific
alarm inputs as configured in the Alarm Inputs page. For example: If you wanted a test
pushbutton to only operate specific alarm inputs, you would designate that group number for
the test pushbutton and assign it to all inputs in the Alarm Inputs configuration page.
Control Group 1 is a global ‘system-wide’ group that controls all inputs regardless of which
control group is assigned.
For example: If Input channel #23 is configured for Control Group 4 (reference the Alarm Inputs
Configuration screen), any pushbutton assigned to Control Group 4 will control that input
channel #23. In addition, any pushbutton assigned to Control Group 1 will also control the same
input channel #23.
Inhibit Group:
Similar to above but with the Inhibit Switch inputs.
Channel:
This will display an abbreviation of the control switch and group number configured.

Control Interlock:
This requires that the Silence, Acknowledge and Reset pushbuttons are pressed in this exact
order. Anything else will be ignored.
For example; if the Acknowledge pushbutton is pressed before the Silence, it will not have any
effect. (Note: If the Reset function is not required for the alarm sequence selected, it will be
ignored.)
