The
Freeway
router can drive up to sixteen multi-dropped panels from each of the
two RS485 General Remote ports.
Each panel on the same RS485 port must be set, according to its handbook, to have a
unique multi-drop address. For this port and address, the database should be
configured with the:
·
panel type
·
source keypad
·
destination keypad
·
controllable destination association indices
·
controllable levels and brightness
·
override sources
·
panel name

The protect function prevents other control devices connected to
Freeway
, including
devices attached to the remote ports, from setting crosspoints on a particular
destination. Until such a time as it is unprotected by the control device that
protected the destination originally, or from the panel designated as master.
Protect operates on the destination assigned to each level for the destination
association that was protected.
If a control device attached to the multi-drop device ports attempts to set crosspoints
on a protected destination then an error message will be displayed on control devices
with displays. See ‘Panels with displays’ section for display messages.
Setting a protected destination causes protect button LEDS on other BPX type panels
to flash - if they are assigned to the same destination.
