automatically carry out the command of
“immediate start” or “delay start” on devices
being controlled according to these logical expressions. The Cause and Effect
equations in this system consist of two parts linked by an equal mark. The part before
the equal mark is the condition, which includes device zone number, device number,
device type and a relational operator, and the part after it are devices to be activated,
which includes device zone number, device number, device type and delay time.
Example:
The meaning of the above equation: If point smoke detector No. 010 in Zone 010 or
point smoke detector No. 011 in Zone 010 alarms, sounder strobe No. 012 in Zone 010
will start immediately, and sounder strobe No. 013 in Zone 010 will start after 10x10
seconds delay.
Note:
(1) It is required for devices in both event group and in command group to have zone
number, device number and device type in the equation. The device type cannot be
absent.
(2) There are two expressions for the equal mark, which are = (meaning to start) and
=x (meaning to stop).
(3) There can only be one equal mark which means cause-and-effect-relationship in
an equation.
(4) There are two types of relational operators
“+” and “x”, in which “+” refers to “or”,
and
“x” refers to “and”.
(5) The figure appearing after the equal mark can be 00 to 99, which is to be multiplied
by 10 to represent a time within 0s to 600s.
(6) Wildcard character asterisk (
“*”) is allowed to used in the equation to represent
number 0 to 9. It can be used either before or after the equal mark. When it appear
in the condition part, the relationship among the series of devices is
“or”. For
example,
0*001315 refers to “0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
00001315”. If it
appears in the command part, it refers to a group of devices.
(7) In command part, the device type cannot be replaced by
“*”.
(8) The relational operator can be 2 digits and the equal mark can be 3 digits. Spaces
can be used to fill the blank. If the number of characters entered is not enough, the
FACP will automatically fill the position with spaces.
6.3.1.6.2 Creating New C&E Equations
Choosing “1” in the screen of Fig. 6-28 will enter the screen for creating new equations.
The system will automatically assign a number for the new equation. Entering the
equation and confirming by
ENTER
key and the system will save it. The system is able
8 digits. Valid characters: 0~9, *
10 digits. Valid characters: 0~9, *
0 01001101= 0100124100 0100134110
2 digits. Valid characters: +,
3 digits. Valid characters: =, =
1 digit. Valid character: space
