B.2 How Releasing Zones Operate
The figure below contains an illustrated example of how Releasing Zones work, using cross zone selections with four detectors and an
NAC mapped to Releasing Zone 1 (listed as ZR01 in the zone map). Table B.3 on page 57 lists the cross zone selections and the condi-
tions that activate the Releasing Zone:
Figure B.1 Illustrated Example of Cross Zone Programming
Listing of each Cross Zone option and the conditions required to activate the Releasing Zone, according to the example shown in
Figure B.1 on page 57.
Cross Zone Selection
(Cross=)
Condition(s) Required to Activate the Releasing zone
Cross=NONE
An alarm from any detector or module activates the releasing circuit.
Cross=YES
An alarm from any two detectors or modules activates the releasing circuit.
Cross=ZONE
An alarm from two detectors or modules mapped to different Software Zones, but mapped to the
same Releasing Zone.
• An alarm from L02D101 and L02D103 – detectors mapped to different zones, but both list ZR01 in their
zone map.
• An alarm from L02D102 and L02D104 – detectors mapped to different zones, but both list ZR01 in their
zone map.
• An alarm from L02D101 and L02D104 – detectors mapped to different zones, but both list ZR01 in their
zone map.
• An alarm from L02D102 and L02D103 – detectors mapped to different zones, but both list ZR01 in their
zone map.
Cross=HEAT
Activation of heat detector L02D104 and one smoke detector (L02D101, L02D102, or L02D103).
