Master Groups
"
The verify control button that is applicable for EN panels only can operate globally, like the Sound alarm,
Silence alarm and Reset buttons.
¨
There can be up to a maximum of 8 Master Groups per network.
¨
These are a collection of Groups used for:
•
Selective fire and non fire event message routing within a Control Panel or around a Network of Panels
•
and for routing Global Controls ‘Silence Alarms, Sound Alarms and/or Reset’ to designated Control Panels on a
Network.
¨
Messages can be displayed or printed on Control Panels or Repeat Panels. Messages are routed on a Card by Card
basis, ie:
card 0 = Panel LCD
card 15 = Panel Printer
cards 1-8 = Repeats and Mimics (Loops 1-8)
•
Each Card can be configured to display/print
All Events
(default) or just
Fire Events.
Repeat Panels on the
same loop will always give the same information.
"
Once message passing has been setup for a global repeat or mimic indication, the local panel will also have
to have reset messages routed also any other groups than 0 will have to be routed.
¨
Groups within different Control Panels can be assigned to the same Master Group.
¨
Global controls can be configured to output/input or both.
"
Messages and controls within a standalone system do not require any setting up.
The Group 0 contains all panel events and fire resets and therefore must always be assigned to a Master Group.
