Synchronize Sounder Base Addresses
When an addressable sounder base is added to the job in the Configurator, it is assigned an
address based on the address of the AP sensor it is connected to (see section 19.12 on
page 159). However, the physical sounder base has a default address which might not match
the configured address. This mismatch generates a “mismatched address” or “unconfigured
device” error on the panel. This error will usually occur on new installations, or in situations
where the sounder bases have been replaced.
The menu item
Pairing Sound B
synchronizes the internal address of the sounder base with
the address of the AP sensor it is connected to. This command applies only to the node it is
sent from.
Synchronize sounder base addresses
1. On the main display or on an annunciator, press the MENU button.
2. Scroll
down
to
Pairing Sound B
, and press ENTER.
3. Enter your passcode if required.
4. Press ENTER to confirm.
The sounder base addresses are synchronized.
5. Repeat these steps for every node that has sound bases connected to it.
After all sounder bases on the network are synchronized, all troubles related to sounder base
addresses should be cleared.

Print Active Events
You can quickly print a list of the active events to a printer connected to the panel, or to your
laptop computer.
Note:
A sounder base with no AP sensor mounted on it will reset its address to 0
following this procedure. Install the missing AP sensor and perform this
procedure again.
Note:
To print a report to a printer or to a laptop (using Tera Term or HyperTerminal), the
printer output must be enabled via the Configurator.
