Smart Sensor Setup
Your console may have Smart Sensors installed. Once a Smart Sensor is configured, the system reads the
sensor’s feature set and programming options. After configuring each Smart Sensor, you should printout the Smart
Sensor Setup before attempting to program the sensor.
NOTE: If Smart Sensor modules are not installed, this function is not available.
Selecting the Smart Sensor Setup Function
To select Smart Sensor Setup, press FUNCTION until you see the message:
Press STEP to continue.
Sensor Configuration
If necessary, press STEP until you see the message:
When Smart Sensor Interface Modules (8 inputs) or Smart Sensor / Press Modules (7 inputs) are installed, the
system recognizes the presence and module slot locations of each one. The system also designates the module
number (n) based on the slot location. In this display you tell the system which positions on the module have been
connected to sensors.
As you tell the system which sensor positions on a module are connected, the system establishes a number for
each sensor. For example, if there are sensors connected to positions 2 and 4 of module 1, the sensor in position
2 becomes s2 and the sensor in position 4 becomes s4.
To specify whether position 1 is connected, press CHANGE until the correct choice appears (1 if the position is
connected, X if it is not). Press the Right Arrow key to move to position 2 and press CHANGE again until the
correct choice appears (2). Repeat these steps until you have correctly specified all sensors connected to this
Smart Sensor module. Press ENTER to confirm your entry:
Press STEP. If more than one module is installed, the system automatically advances to the SS CONFIG message
for the next module. Up to 40 smart sensors can be monitored by the console.
NOTE:
At least one Smart Sensor / Press module is required with Vac Sensors. You can use either additional
Smart Sensor / Press Modules or 8-input Smart Sensor Interface Modules if more than 7 Vac Sensors are
installed.
Repeat the steps described above for each module until you have entered the configuration information (sensor
positions) for all modules and the system displays the ENTER SMARTSENSOR LABEL message.
When you have finished configuring all Smart Sensors, press the PRINT key to printout a copy of each sensors
feature set and programming options (see example printout below).
