Outputs Menu

Pulsed
This option is available for some output types. Selecting Yes causes the output, when
activated, to give a single pulse of a specified length after a specified delay. See
Delay
and
On Time
below. If
Pulsed
is set to No, the output changes state when the zone
changes state.
Note:
This option is not available for output types that already have built-in pulse
behaviour, including PIR Set Latch, Shock/Smoke Sensor Reset, setting/unset complete,
user-defined and courtesy light.
Partitions
This option is available for most output types. By default, the outputs are assigned to all
partitions.
Zones
This option is available for some output types. Select the zones that apply.
Delay
This is visible when
Pulsed
is set to Yes. The delay can take any value from 0 to 999
seconds. If set to 0, the output operates immediately. When set to any other value, the
output waits for the specified number of seconds before becoming active.
On Time
This is visible when
Pulsed
is set to Yes.
On Time
can take any value from 1 to 999
seconds. The output is active for the specified number of seconds. (A value of 0 seconds
is not allowed.)
Wired Outputs
The Wired Outputs menu provides access to hardwired outputs in the control unit.
Select
Panel
, then a wired output at the panel (O/P 1-4). You can edit each output's
settings in the same way as for radio outputs (see page 40).
Note:
The control unit's power supply does not provide 12Vdc for external output devices
on page 8).
Custom Outputs
A custom output is a virtual logic gate within the control unit. It is similar to an AND gate or
OR gate in digital electronics, but exists only within the configuration of the control unit. A
custom output can have up to 10 inputs. An input is an event such as
Fire Alarm
or
Hold
Up Alarm
(see page 40).
You can use a custom output to activate a physical output by assigning the custom output
as the type of the physical output. For example, if you have set up
Custom Output 1
and
wish to use it to activate a physical output at the control unit, assign
Custom Output 1
as
the type for the physical output.
You must select a
Mode
for each custom output, which can be All(AND), or Any (OR). For
the AND mode, all inputs to the custom output must be active for the custom output to be
active. For the OR mode, any one of the inputs must be active for the custom output to be
active.
The control unit supports up to 4 custom outputs.
