This procedure is then repeated for each blank auto-address-device on the loop. There should be a time interval of
approx. 10 seconds between auto-address-device activations.
NOTE:
If two auto-address-devices are simultaneously activated, neither will be programmed with an address.
One auto-address-device must be activated (and programmed) at a time. Physically removing any device on a
loop in ASET mode will free up the device address and the next auto-address-device to be activated could
potentially be assigned that address.
Two functions are provided to the installer, should the need arise to clear/ erase any or all auto-address-devices modules
in a specific loop:
Function 6-4-2 Clear Loop
Use this function to clear/ erase all auto-address-devices on the specified loop.
Once erased, all auto-address-devices on that loop must be reprogrammed using ASET mode. See function 6.4.1.
Function 6-4-3 Clear Device
Use this function to erase a single auto-address-device on a specific loop.
NOTE:
Both functions 6-4-2 and 6-4-3 will operate even if the chosen loop is not in ASET mode.
After all auto-address-devices have been programmed in a loop, perform a MASTER RESET to the panel followed by a
confirmation, using function 7.1, that all devices have been correctly programmed
(i.e. device address, type and analogue value).
UPON COMPLETION OF THE INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING STAGES,
A FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM SHOULD ALWAYS OPERATE IN ACTIVE MODE
