FBI ENGLISH 0 ZERO M/DD/YY HH:MM:SS
Background:
Fire Burglary Instruments
has developed a Central Station reporting format
that is transmitted exclusively by
FBI
control products and is known as
FBI
Superfast
(sometimes called
4x1x2x1
[4 by 1 by 2 by 1] because of the way its
characters are sent).
FBI Superfast
enables the reporting of up to 256 unique zone codes (and/or
user codes for openings and closings) instead of the 15 possible zone (and
user) codes provided by most other formats. In addition,
FBI Superfast
uses
TouchTones®, rather than rotary pulses, to convey the signal – resulting in
a rapid transmission rate. Overall, the
FBI Superfast
format offers a
communications protocol that can report a large quantity of zone numbers
(and user codes) quickly, accompanied with a high degree of reliability.
The data on the following line represents how an actual
FBI Superfast
transmission is displayed by the CP-220A:
1234 B1 036
in which:
1234 refers to the subscriber's
Account Number
B1 refers to the
Event Code
and
Zone Type
036 refers to the actual
Zone Number
NOTE: The FBI Superfast format may be used on the CP-220A with a
Version 3.3 (or later) REC-5 Memory Card ONLY when configured
as an FBI receiver (see
PARAMETER 02
) with REC-1 Line Cards
and/or REC-11 Line Cards having a Version of 2.46 or later.
The purpose of
PARAMETER 47
(like
PARAMETER 28
) is to provide
8-character customized English Language descriptions to accompany the
display (and printout) of messages received by the CP-220A. While
PARAMETER 28
applies to standard reporting formats,
PARAMETER 47
is
for
FBI Superfast
messages only. This allows the Central Station's operators
to quickly determine the nature of the report when looking at the display or
the resulting printout.
