Latching Supv
Verification The ES Panel's Latching Supv Verification (LVS DUCT and LVSUPV) feature activates a
supervisory condition when a device crosses the threshold. This means that the supervisory
condition on the panel does not clear until the point restores to normal and a system reset is
performed.
The ES Panel FACP supports both Domestic (United States) and Canadian versions of
supervisory verification. Refer to “Selecting Canadian or Domestic (US) Operation” for
information on enabling the Canadian or domestic version of alarm verification.
Moving Points between Groups
By default, initiating devices with a latching verification point type are initially put in Supv
Verification Group 0.
To put points into other Supv Verification groups:
1. Open the List Window by selecting the List Tab at the top of the Programmer.
2. Click on the Latching Supv Verification tab at the bottom of the List Window.
3. Click on the Supv Verification group into which you want to move points. Right click and
select Tag List.
4. Use the mouse or arrow keys to highlight each point you want to move into the group. A
point is selected when a “>>” appears to the left of the point. Repeat this step to select other
points.
Selecting Canadian or Domestic (US) Operation
Canadian alarm verification works somewhat differently from the domestic (US) version.
Table 8-1 shows Canadian and domestic (US) operation for the alarm verification feature.
To select Canadian or Domestic (US) operation (Figure 8-3), follow these steps:
1. Right click on one of the groups and select
Properties. The Alarm Verification Properties
dialog appears.
2. Click on the Alarm Verification tab.
3. Click on the drop-down list box and select
Canadian or Domestic operation.
Note: You only need to set the Verification Timer field
for one of the alarm verification groups. The
programmer sets this field to the same value for
all other groups.
