SOFTWARE FOR EVENT MEMORY READOUT
9.1
EVENT MEMORY GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The IGNIS 1240 control panel is equipped with the memory of the events that took place during the
premises supervision. The following occurrences are treated as events:
1.
fire alarms;
2.
all faults, detected by the control panel, and their removals;
3.
acknowledgment of alarm and fault information receipt;
4.
configuration settings change;
5.
alarm reset;
6.
zone switch-over for testing;
7.
alarm transmission (general fire relay) activation;
8.
disablement and re-enablement of alarm transmission / general fire relay.
Every event message contains the event date and time with 1-second accuracy.
A special part of the memory, was separated from the entire panel memory and is intended only for
fire alarms recording – they are recorded in the fire counter of 9,999-occurrence capacity. The alarm
counter readout on the LCD is possible after obtaining the 2
nd
access level (as per description in p.
5.2.6). The event history printout is provided by the special software and a PC computer use.
Occurrences different from fire alarms (such as faults, disablements, configuration changes, etc.) are
recorded separately. When the memory capacity of 512 occurrences is exceeded, new events are
recorded at the memory beginning in the place of the oldest ones. The entire memory contents
readout or printout is possible after sending the data from the control panel to a PC computer
through the RS 232C serial port the control panel is equipped with. The data transmission takes place
after activation of the event memory readout software. It is possible to delete the event memory
contents using the function described in p. 5.3.4 at the 3
rd
access level. The alarm counter erasure
needs a special key use at the 4
th
access level.

HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
a)
PC computer with Windows 98/ME/2000/XP/Vista/7 operating system equipped with:
- accessible RS 232 (COM1 ÷ COM4 type) serial port;

CONTROL PANEL-COMPUTER CONNECTION
Before starting the program, a computer should be connected to the control panel. This operation
should be carried out when the computer is switched off. A connecting cable should be ended with a
9-contact connector from the control panel side and a 9- or 25-contact connector from the other
side.
In case an available cable is ended with 9-contact connectors on both sides and the computer is
equipped with a 25-contact connector, it is possible to use an adapter available at IT accessories
stores. On the below diagram it is shown how to connect the computer with the control panel when
the computer is equipped with a 9- or 25-contact connector.
