F.5 ACS Program Mapping
Annunciator points “track” or follow those system points they are programmed to annunciate; they do not latch. Table F.1, which follows,
outlines the annunciation of various system circuits and functions.
NOTE:
Address and DIP switches must be set before the annunciator will operate properly.
Switch #
ACM-16AT and ACM-32A Function
1
Not used: This switch must be set “OFF”
2, 3
Expanders installed: Set these switches according to how many expanders are installed at the address. See Section 5.13.3
4
Eight-Point Shift: Set switch “ON” to switch the control panel functions out of the first eight annunciator points. This switch is intended for
systems between 9 and 16 circuits and employing one ACM-16AT (with no expander) where annunciation of all circuits is desired.
5
Receive Only: Set this switch “ON” for each annunciator that will provide the same information as another annunciator in a different location.
(When two or more annunciators hold the same address, all but one must be configured as “Receive Only” annunciators.)
6
Piezo Disable: Set this switch “ON” to disable the piezo from sounding for any event. (The piezo will also be disabled if Flash Inhibit is “ON”.)
7
Switch Inhibit: Set this switch “ON” to disable the point control switches on the annunciator and prevent them from executing system control
functions. When inhibited, the switches will serve as local Lamp Test switches only. In addition, the Acknowledge/Lamp Test switch will
function only in a local capacity unrecognized by the system.
NOTE: Only the first four switches control the System 500. Their functions are: 1=Acknowledge 2=Signal Silence, 3=System Reset, 4=Drill.
8
Flash Inhibit: Set this switch “ON” to disable the flashing of LEDs associated with unacknowledged events. Flash Inhibit also disables the
piezo from sounding.

Table F.1 Annunciator Program Mapping with System 500
1
These control switches are active only if all of these conditions are set:
– Receive Only (DIP Switch # 5) is set to “OFF.”
– Switch Inhibit (DIP Switch # 7) is set to “OFF.”
2
With Software P/N #S500R4.0 or higher installed in the System 500, the manner in which IZ-8, IZ-8CS, and IZ-8CS4 circuits programmed as
supervisory are annunciated depends upon whether Mode 1 or Mode 2 is selected.
3
ICR-4L and CR-4L circuits are annunciated as points 41-44 when installed behind the middle module or points 49-52 when installed behind the right-
hand side module.
4
If the Eight-Point Shift (DIP switch # 4) is set “ON,” the eight control panel functions will be shifted out of annunciator points 1 through 8. Those eight
points will annunciate the first module.
5
Annunciator Point #7 yellow LED indicates Municipal Tie Trouble if no UDACT is installed. It will annunciate Low Battery Ground Fault if a UDACT is
installed in the system.
NOTE:
Control Switches marked “not used” will still function as local LAMP TEST or local ACKNOWLEDGE switches for their respective
points.
