3.2 Memory
concept
The data processed during the configuration is always the customer data record that was loaded into the RAM
memory. These are:
the current customer data
or
the backup of the current customer data
or
the existing configuration templates
.
If this data record is changed, the current customer data record is overwritten when the data is saved. The FACP
works with this data record. The backup of the current data record may still contain the “old” data record.
It is therefore possible to test the new configuration and load the “old” data record again in the event of an incorrect
programming. Save the new configuration
if the fire alarm control panel works as wanted with the new data record.
The current data record will then be the same as the backed-up data record. The “old” version is then irrevocably
overwritten. If you do not save the configuration changes, the current customer data will remain unchanged.
The FACP always works with the current customer data record.

Fig. 6: Principle of the memory management
Working with configuration templates
Various templates are available for a quick configuration. These have been pre-programmed in factory-set for the
desired use (e.g. underground car park, house alarm, construction site operation, etc.) and can be loaded into the
RAM memory as the current data record. Specific data relating to the object requirements and the loop operation
must be configured with the programming software tools 8000.
Own “building-specific” configuration templates
Own templates can be produced by creating a data record or by loading a configuration template. You do this by
programming the configuration as desired and then writing this data record into the backup memory area
. If
changes were made to this building configuration, a “*” will be displayed in front of the building name at the
building level. These changes can be saved in the RAM memory with the
key.
When a template is loaded the existing configuration for the loop is deleted.
For configuration templates see Chapter 10.
