Zone Text

Use this 

Zone Text

 option to change the descriptive text 

for a zone. Follow the steps above.

Panel Text

Use this 

Panel Text

 option to change the text that appears 

as 

High Street Office

 in the screen examples above. 

Follow the steps above.

3.6.2

Insert Point

Use this 

Insert Point

 option to add and configure a new 

point address.
Start by navigating to an unused point address. You see the 
type of screen shown in Fig. 36.

The highlight is initially in the description field. Use the 

–>

 

and 

<–

 keys to step to the required character position. Then 

to enter a character, on the keypad use quick repeated 
presses to step through the characters of a key. Pause after 
reaching the required character.
Once the description is complete move to the 

Device 

Type/Use

 field. Here use the 

+

 and 

 keys to step through 

the list of device types, until you reach the appropriate type 
to assign to the address. When you see “– –” you have 
reached the end of the list.
Once the required device type has been selected move to 
the Zone field and enter the appropriate Zone number.
Press 

Enter

 (F5) to confirm and insert the point address.

If fitting a detector at this point, you will probably need to 
change the detector address to match the point address. To 

do this follow the procedure in  “Change Address“ on 
page 16, with
 the exception you will be entering this newly 
created point address, rather than the existing point 
address of a faulty detector.
While inserting multichannel devices such as 410MIO, all 
channels of the device are inserted taking the 
corresponding number of point addresses(7 consecutive 
addresses). If the point addresses overlap with the 
occupied ones, then the message is displayed as 

Address Conflict

 and the insert operation is 

abandoned.

3.6.3

Delete Point

Use this 

Delete Point

 option to remove a point address.

First navigate to the address to be deleted and press 

Enter

.

You now see a screen summarising the point details, with 
options to confirm or abandon the delete.
While deleting a multichannel device at any of its point 
addresses, all the device channels are deleted together i.e. 
you are not allowed to delete individual channel(s).

3.6.4

Modify Point

Use the 

Modify Point

 option to change the details of a 

point address.
First navigate to a point address and press 

Enter

.

You now see a screen for changing the point Description, 
Device Type and Use, the Loop address and the Zone 
number. Use this screen in a similar way to the “Change 
Address” screen (Fig. 29 on page 16) and
 the “Point Insert” 
screen (Fig. 36 on page 20).
For multi-channel devices, you are allowed to modify either 
only the label/description or both, and zone of the 
channels. You are not allowed to change any device to a 
multi-channel one.

Synchronize Network

After you have performed the respective operations such 
as changed text, inserted, deleted or modified the points, 
you now need to use the Configuration menu, 

Restart

 

option as shown in Fig 35.
Before the panel is to be restarted on a networked system, 
to include changes updated for the front panel 
configuration, the following message appears: 

After restart do a Fire Reset to 

synchronize the network

.

It serves as a reminder for the user to perform a fire reset to 
synchronize the changes.
Note that this message does not appear if the panel is 
restarted for a non-networked system.

WARNING
Only suitably qualified personnel in 
intrinsically safe systems are allowed 
to insert intrinsically safe equipment.
The alterations to the system must be 
verified.
