Network Event Filtering
With Configuration Tool software version 2.14,
or above, ID
2
net network status message and
control action filtering is available as a
configurable option. This feature allows the
network to be partitioned so that control panels
and repeaters located in each geographical area
(sector) respond only to events and control
actions raised within its own sector; all other
network events and control actions are filtered
out, i.e. ignored.
A maximum of 63 sectors can be configured on
an ID
2
net network.
Note:
An ID
2
net network can support up to 63
panels in a filtered environment providing
a limit of 32 panels per sector is imposed.
The system allows control panels to be
configured as ‘supervisors’ if they are required
to display network events or respond to control
actions in one or more specified other sectors,
in the same way that any node behaves on a
non-filtered network.
Repeaters cannot be configured as supervisors.
This feature is not available for Master/Slave
networks.
