Loops
“
LOOPS
” option displays the screen shown on the right. Via this
selection screen, the technician can register / unregister loop circuits.
Use up/down keys to navigate between the loops and right key to
select or unselect activation. Press Enter to save configurations.
This option may only be used when removing a loop card or adding
a new one. Do not unregister an installed loop circuit or register a not
installed one, as a relative fault will appear on the control panel
screen.

Max indicators per loop
“
MAX INDICATORS/LOOP
” option is used to restrict the maximum
number of lit LED indicators, of the connected addressable devices
in a loop, during an alarm event, in order to reduce high current
consumption that could lead to malfunctions.
When the maximum number of allowed indicators is reached, the rest
of the devices that may detect a fire, will send the fire alarm signal to
the control panel but will not turn on their red LED indicator. By default
set to 10.

Detectors dependency
“
DETECTORS DEPENDENCY
” option will display the submenu
shown to the right.
Figure5-32.Detector dependency
The first option “
DEPENDENCY STATUS
” is used to set the
“dependency” as enabled or disabled. This term means that the
smoke/fire detectors will not instantly trigger alarm event when the
detected value is above limit, but will go through a selected time
delay, in which the detected alarm value should be constantly above
selected limit.
This function may be used as a “sensitivity” setting, indirectly.
Figure5-33.Dependency status
The second option “
DEPENDENCY TIME
” sets the delay time that
takes place before triggering an alarm event on the control panel,
after a smoke/fire detection points has detected a value above limit.
The available time delays are:
20s / 30s / 40s / 50s / 1m
The detected value must remain above limit for the selected period
of time constantly in order for the alarm event to be triggered.
