Details of the disabled sounder outputs can be viewed by
pressing the disabled loop devices icon
or the
disabled local I/O icon

outputs disabled, it will be indicated by the disabled zone
outputs icon
.
Alarm Group Mode
When Alarm group mode is disabled, the panel will not activate any output devices on that alarm group (zone).
This might be used if the system requires routine maintenance, and the user needs the rest of the system to continue running, but
doesn’t want spurious output activations.
The panel will respond in the usual manner to any events in any non-disabled zones.
Any number of alarm group (zones) can be disabled, but it is good practice to only disable one alarm group/zone at a time.
An alarm group (zone) can be disabled as follows:
Enter the Engineer or User Password, Press the menu
access icon
, select the Alarm group Icon
and
select the A. Grp Mode tab.
(The disabling function is available to engineer & users).
The panel shows the Alarm Group mode menu.
Set the alarm group to disable by pressing the ‘Out’ field.
The status will change from all enabled to Sounder
Disabled.
This would disable all sounder outputs in that alarm
group (zone).
Disable further alarm groups in the same way, or press
exit to save.
For further options, press the ‘Out’ field again. The status
will change from ‘Sounder disabled’ to ‘Relay disabled’.
This would disable all relay outputs in that alarm group
(zone).
