Step 4
– VIEW DEVICES, Enter Zone Numbers, Location text and Change Group Assignments if required.
Step 5

Step 6
– ZONES, Enter Zone Texts as required.
3.3.1 Loops
For Multi-loop panels only
– On selecting the LOOPS option, the display will prompt for the loop to be viewed /

The list of loops available will be adjusted automatically to show only those loops that are available or have a
loop driver card installed. In the above example, loop drivers are installed in positions 1 and 2 of an Mx-5400.
Press the
buttons to scroll through the list of loops available and then press the
✔
button to select the

3.3.2 Loops
– View/Edit
The VIEW/EDIT option shows a list of the devices connected to the loop learnt by the panel. For example:
[Loop 1] More>
Address State Type Value
001.0 Normal CALL POINT 16
002.0 Normal MULTI.SENSOR 28
003.0 Normal ION SMOKE 23
004.0 Normal HEAT 21
The first device on the loop is shown at the top of the list and is highlighted. Press the
buttons to scroll
through the list of devices.
Press the
buttons to view additional information. The display highlights a particular parameter. To change
the value of this parameter (if not view only), press the
✔
button and appropriate options will be shown on the
display. The address field is always shown for reference.
