• XLS140-2 and XLS120
A dedicated annunciator must be programmed to light when
a ZF20 MN Special Function Zone activates, indicating an
MN alarm. Use custom annunciator mapping in VeriFire
Tools to map ZF20 to an LED annunciator.
— Select a custom annunciator group user map.
— Program the desired annunciator point with ZF20.
• DVC-KD
A DVC-KD user-defined point may be programmed to
light when an MN alarm activates. In VeriFire Tools DVC-
KD programming, select "Monitor" as the Function. Map
to light when a local MN alarm event (mapping = ZF20)
or an MN alarm event from network nodes (Mapping = a
logic equation that includes ZF20 on desired network
nodes).
NOTE: The LCD-160, may not be used as a primary
dis- play for mass notification events.
NOTE: A dedicated alarm annunciator is not required if
a panel is a displayless node.
XLS-DVC General Zones
General Zones 501-533 activate whenever microphone
paging is active from an XLS-DVC, RPU or EBI
Workstation. Zones 501-532 activate with paging from
DVC-RPU addresses 1-32, and zone 533 activates with
paging from the XLS-DVC or EBI Workstation. These zones
may be monitored anywhere in the system to annunciate
active paging from a location. They must be used in
logic equations to achieve further granularity of the type of
page being performed
OPERATION
For a description of MN operations and annunciations at
EBI, refer to "EBI Installation, Configuration, and User
Guide" with form number 95-8548.
Mass Notification Events
Special zones ZF20 (MN alarm), ZF21 (MN supervisory),
and ZF22 (MN trouble) are used to signal mass notification
events locally and over XLS-NET. If MN has the highest
priority in the system, a ZF20 (MN alarm) will suppress
fire locally and for every node in the initiating node's MN
map.
MN Alarm
Activating an MN Alarm
An MN alarm can be activated by any of the following
events:
1.
Paging at the MN level.
2.
Activation of an MN Alarm Type Code on an XLS
panel.
3.
Pressing an annunciator or DVC-KD control point
pro- grammed to activate an MN alarm message.
NOTE: MN alarms must be individually acknowledged.
XLS3000, XLS-NCA2 MN Activations
LOCAL ACTIVATION
When an MN alarm activates locally, it:
• Produces a steady audible tone if the piezo is enabled.
• Flashes the "OTHER" LED for XLS3000/XLS-NCA2.
• Does not activate the alarm relays.
• Displays MN ALARM in the upper left corner of the display
of XLS3000 XLS-NCA2, and LCD-160, as well as other
information specific to the alarm.
• Activates Special Function Zone ZF20 (MN alarm zone).
• Suppresses fire alarms if MN has the highest priority (refer
to "Output Event Suppression” on page 29.)
• Activates "General Pending" type code at the XLS3000.
• Does not activate "General Alarm" or "Alarm Pending" type
codes.
• Is acknowledged individually.
• Scrolls using "Other Event/Scroll Display" key.
• Any device programmed for "Resound by Fire" will not
resound.
• Increments the OTHER counter in the event counts display.
• Sends an MN alarm message to the history buffer and
installed printer and annunciators.
• Appears as "MNA" in the Multiple Events list screen,
grouped under "MN Alarm".
• Latches the control panel in alarm. The control panel will
not return to normal operation until the alarm condition is
corrected and the control panel is reset. Resets require two
presses of the reset button if both MN and Fire events are
present in the system. The first press will reset the MN
events, the second will reset the rest.
• Initiates any Control-By-Event (CBE) actions. If the node
goes off-line, active logic equations with ZF20 in them will
stay active until MN reset.
• Sends an MN alarm message (ZF20) out to the network.
NETWORK ACTIVATION
When an MN alarm is sent out to the network from the
initiating node, each node on XLS-NET will check its MN map
to determine if it should react to the MN alarm. If a node has
been programmed with the initiating node in its MN map, it will
accept the MN alarm from XLS-NET and react according to its
programming.
• Logic equations with Special Function Zone ZF20 (MN
alarm zone) in them will be evaluated.
• Fire alarms are suppressed if MN has the highest priority
(Refer to "Output Event Suppression” on page 29).
• If the system is "ALL SYSTEMS NORMAL", NETWORK
MN ACTIVE will display.
XLS140-2, XLS120 MN Activation
LOCAL ACTIVATION
When an MN alarm activates locally, it:
• Produces a steady audible tone if the piezo is enabled.
• Illuminates the ACS LED dedicated to MN alarms (required
for the XLS140-2 and XLS120). No LED on the panel
lights for an MN alarm.
• Does not activate the alarm relays.
• Displays ALARM:ECS/MN MON in the upper left corner of
the display, as well as other information specific to the
alarm.
• Activates Special Function Zone ZF20 (MN alarm zone).
• Suppresses fire alarms if MN has the highest priority (refer
to "Output Event Suppression” on page 29).
