•
Row A - This field allows you to select the Loop and Address of a specific SLC device to read its
configuration. Use the
◄►
arrow keys to position the cursor under any of the L-ADR fields; then
use the +/- keys to change to a different loop number or address number. Device information for the
address shown is then displayed (if connected). The device type field is not editable, but will change
for each device type found on the loop.
•
Row C - This field allows you to select to READ, WRITE, ENABLE or DISABLE the selected device
address. Use the
◄►
arrow keys to position the cursor under field; then use the +/- keys to toggle
the field value. Press the ENTER key to perform the desired function.
READ - Will take a copy of the configuration that the device holds and send it to the panel.
Read must be used prior to running a configuration check when any changes are made to the
devices alarm features.
WRITE - Will take the copy of the configuration that the panel holds for the device and send it
to the device.
ENABLE/DISABLE - Lets you Enable/Disable programmed SLC devices (i.e., modules,
detectors, pull stations, etc.).
Disable - causes the panel to copy and store in the panel the current configuration from the
device. The panel then reconfigures the “Output Control” for the selected device to be
BLANK and sends this configuration to the device rendering it non-operational.
Enable – causes the panel to send the device enabled configuration stored in the panel to the
selected device.
•
Row D - Displays the status of process after ENTER key is pressed. Wait until process is
completed prior to exiting this screen.
i
CAUTION
Do not perform a
DEVICE READ
or
LEARN ALL
with devices disabled
on the system. Doing so will cause the disabled configuration stored in
the device(s) to be saved in the panel, rendering the panel’s enable
command useless. At this point, you must use C-Linx to download the
original configuration to the panel to re-enable the device.
