be disabled remotely from the panel using a single input device. The initiating input device can be any
loop-input circuit, call point or peripheral input circuit.

Group Disable
•
The operation of a ‘Group Disable’ input MUST be restricted to
LEVEL 2 ACCESS only. Install accordingly using a key switch to
activate.
5.2.4.8.1 Group
Assignment
•
Each detector or input device that is to be disabled must be assigned to a specific group using the
Group command in the Change Device options. The input device that will initiate the group
disablement must also be assigned to the same group. Press ‘8’ to select the group option.
5.2.4.8.2 Group Disablement Input
•
The input device to be used to control the group disablement must have its ‘Action’ set to Group-
Disable.
ONLY one input device must be assigned to act as the Group Disable input for a specific
group.
5.2.4.8.3 Operation
•
When the input device is activated, the detectors and input devices within the specified group will be
disabled. The LCD on the panel will indicate there are ‘xxx Inputs Disabled’ where, ‘xxx’ is the number
of devices.
•
The Disablement LED will illuminate to indicate that devices are disabled. If all the devices in a zone
are disabled, then the relevant zone LED will also be illuminated. The internal buzzer of the panel will
not sound.
•
When the input device is returned to normal, the group disablement will be cancelled.
If the initiating input device is assigned to the same zone as the group-disable devices,
then the Zone LED will not illuminate. The input device itself cannot be disabled and
hence, not all devices in the zone will be disabled.
To disable the initiating input device, use the Disable Device function in the panel.
