You use Input Zones to combine multiple input circuits into zones which can then be correlated
to signals and other outputs.

Input Zone.
Type
Double-click in this column to change the process type of the zone.
Priority
Specifies the priority given to digitized messages correlated to this input
zone:
í
19 (lowest) through Normal (default) to +19 (Highest). Activation of
a zone with a higher priority will cause its message to be played, and any
lower priority message will cease to play.
In a combined fire and Mass Notification System (MNS) installation,
choose appropriate priorities. For example, if risk analysis has determined
that fire has priority over MNS, assign a higher priority to all fire input
zones – higher than those of MNS digitized message switches.
Code
In a coded system, you can associate devices with a code that sounds on
the signal circuits to indicate where the alarm has occurred. The code
consists of 1 to 4 digits, each digit consisting of 1-15 pulses on the signals.
Each coded circuit can be configured to sound the complete code 1 - 15
times after which the signals will either go silent or revert to the
programmed General Alarm rate.
