– Inputs activate zones, and zones activate outputs.
– Input points can be assigned to up to five local or group zones. Therefore, each input can
activate up to five zones; however, any number of inputs can be mapped to the same
zone.
– Up to five local, group, and/or global zones can be assigned to each output (except the
FAA‑325‑B6S Analog Sounder Base which can be assigned to only one zone).
– Zones 1 to 225 are available for the installer to program.
– Zones 226 to 234 are global zones and are hard-coded to pre-assigned conditions. They
are automatically activated by inputs if a special condition occurs or the panel is in a
processing sequence (See the following two figures). It is not possible to assign an input
point to any global zone.
– An output can be assigned to a global zone so that it will be activated upon the
corresponding special condition. For example, any input that is configured as a "Fire
Auto" type activates Zone 226 when it is alarmed. Any output driven by Zone 226
activates when any “Fire Auto” type point is alarmed.
For how inputs control zones and zones control outputs in a network, see the following figure.

For how inputs control zones and zones control outputs in a stand-alone panel, see the
