Wired Expanders
Address Bus Device
You can use this option to add a wired expander to the bus once it is physically wired to
the bus. The following is displayed:
Please refer to page 51 for details of how to proceed. The control unit assigns a bus
address (see page 25) to each device you add.
Note:
If the expander you are adding already has a bus device number stored within it,
you may need to clear the address before adding it to the bus. You can do this
manually by pressing the Request/Delete Address button while applying power
to the expander, or by using
Delete Expander
(page 53).
Use the
Detectors/Devices
– Address Bus Device
to give an EXP-PSU a bus
address.
Edit Expander
You can use this option to edit settings for a specific expander.
Note:
If you wish to find out where the device is located,
press “*”. The displayed device
will sound a continuous tone. Press “#” to stop the tone.
The following options are available.
Name
You can give each expander a name. The name appears in the log, in alerts and when
configuring the expander.
Partitions
In a partitioned system, an expander must belong to at least one partition. You can use
this option to assign each expander to one or more partitions. By default, an expander
belongs only to partition 1.
An expander gives notification tones for every associated partition
through the expander’s
loudspeaker (if one is connected).
If any associated partition is set, a tamper at the expander will cause an unconfirmed
alarm. If there is an outstanding unconfirmed alarm, this will cause a confirmed alarm to be
generated.
