6.1 Device Fail Time
When supervision of a wireless detector is turned ON, the panel will show a trouble if a
wireless zone stops working or is removed from the system. When supervision is turned
OFF, the panel will not show a trouble.
NOTE: Wireless keys are NOT supervised.
A
zone supervisory is a test transmission that each wireless zone sends to the RF4164-433
receiver. When the RF4164-433 module receives the supervisory transmission from the zone,
the RF4164-433 module will transmit this information to the control panel.
If the control panel does not get a supervisory transmission from a zone within the
Device Fail time, the zone will be considered “missing”, causing a Device Fault.
The next supervisory transmission that the RF4164-433 receives from the “missing”
zone will restore communication with that zone and restore the Zone Supervisory Fault.
The Device Fail timer will also be reset.
