Loop Number (64 - 65)
For Contact ID format only. Factory default is '00'. Maximum value is '97'. Refer to Section 5.0 for
additional information.
Device/Zone Number (66 - 68)
For Contact ID format only. These entries apply to the general reports only, i.e. general alarm, general
trouble, general supervisory. Factory default is '000'. Maximum value is '999'. Refer to "Reporting
Formats" on page 59 for additional information.
Note: For the Contact ID Format, Loop Number and Device Number do not directly correspond to the
AM2020 or NFS-3030 Loop or Device Number, instead, it is a convenient way to transmit data to the
Central Station. Using the default Loop Number of '00' allows the reporting of a maximum of 999
devices or zones (001-999). To report device addresses or zones higher than 999 (the AM2020 and
NFS-3030 can report up to 2,040 addresses), the Loop Number is incremented by one to report up to an
additional 1,000 device addresses or zones on the same panel. Following is an example (using the
factory defaults) of Loop Number and Device Number settings for the UDACT on a single AM2020
control panel:
Loop Number '00' reports points/zones 00 001 to 00 999
Loop Number '01’ reports points/zones 01 000 to 01,999
Loop Number '02’ reports points/zones 02 000 to 02,040
If the Loop Number (64-65) is programmed to 10, the devices are reported as:
Loop Number '10’ reports points/zones 10 001 to 10 999
Loop Number '11’ reports points/zones 11 000 to 11,999
Loop Number '12' reports points/zones 12 000 to 12,040
In applications which utilize multiple AM2020s and/or NFS-3030s, the group number may be used to
help identify each facility being monitored. This also applies to multiple facilities monitored by a variety
of compatible Notifier Fire Alarm Control Panels. For example, each UDACT can report its panel's
devices by designating different Loop Numbers for each panel. The Loop Numbers assigned to a
particular panel must be sequential, but the Loop Numbers from one panel to the next need not be
sequential; i.e., the Loop Numbers assigned for the UDACT on one AM2020 or NFS-3030 might be 00,
01 or 02 while the Loop Numbers for another FACP might be 10, 11 or 12 or any other set of unused
consecutive numbers. For additional information on the AM2020/AFP1010 control panels refer to
"Appendix I: AM2020/AFP1010" on page 109. For additional information on the NFS-3030 control
panel refer to "NFS-3030" on page 115.
