Chapter 3: Programming

EST iO64 and iO500 Technical Reference Manual
Device programming
Each device in your system must be programmed to set its
operating parameters, such as device type, label, and event
notification. A device is an input (smoke detector) or output (strobe)
device that operates on a notification appliance circuit or device
loop.
Note:
Devices are programmed by selecting their device (address)
number and then programming the device. It is important for you to
have a printout of the Device Details > Serial Number report to
correlate the device address with the default label and serial
number. This will make device programming much easier. Refer to
the "Device details report" in the Reports chapter.
Device programming options
Zone
Select the zone you want to add this device to or select Off if you are not adding the device to a
zone.
Note:
Do not mix device and zone types. For example, do not place a nonlatching supervisory
device in an alarm zone. When the supervisory device activates and an alarm event is initiated,
the alarm event automatically clears when the device restores without having to reset the
panel.
Label
Enter a text label for the device (up to 40 characters and two lines). The two lines below the
device number line on the screen is the device label. When finished, choose Save.
Correlation groups
Select the correlation group that you want to correlate/assign the device to. Select Yes to add
the device to the correlation group or No to not add the device to the correlation group. When
finished, choose Save.
Note:
A correlation group is a collection of NACs and/or output devices (strobes) that responds
to an input device (smoke detector). When you program the loop devices, you will have to
correlate/assign the desired input device or zone to the correlation group that you want to
activate. Refer to "Correlation groups programming" for more information.
Event notification
Set the active, trouble, disable, prealarm, alarm verify, maintenance alert, and test event
information by choosing one and then setting the notification information. When finished,
choose Save. See "Factory default settings" for device event notification default settings.
Printer: Yes or No - Specifies if event information is printed
Coder: 4-digit coded output, which is played in response to alarm conditions (00-00-00-00 to
99-99-99-99)
Dialer:
Acct 1 & 2: Event information is sent to both dialer accounts
Acct 1: Event information is sent to dialer account one
Acct 2: Event information is sent to dialer account two
None: Event information is not sent to the dialer
NET: Yes or No. Specifies if event information is sent to the connected network
CID: Contact ID event code (000 to 999)
Day sensitivity
Set the daytime smoke level sensitivity to least, less, more, normal, or most.
Night sensitivity
Set the nighttime smoke level sensitivity to least, less, more, normal, or most.
