Assigning an output group to a programmable button
Up to seven output groups can be assigned to the programmable buttons and
LEDs on the control panel interface for control and indication. This option is only
available for evacuation panels. By default, all programmable buttons are set to
sounder group 1.
Evacuation panels operating in NEN 2575 mode can only assign sounder output
groups to the programmable buttons. Evacuation panels operating in other
modes can assign any of the available output group types to the buttons.
Remember to create the output groups that you need before configuring the
programmable buttons. See “Output groups” on page 86 for more information.
To assign an output group to a programmable button:
1. Select Field setup from the Main menu, and then select Output groups.
2. Select Progr. Controls.
3. Select the button/LED to configure.
Programmable buttons are numbered #1 to #7, top to bottom.
4. Select and check In Use.
5. Select OpMode, and then select the output group mode.
6. Select Group_n, and then enter the number of the output group that you want
to assign to the button.
7. Select Delay, and then enter any required confirmation delay (in seconds).
The delay counts down after the Confirm button is pressed before activating
the assigned output group. The maximum delay value is 600 seconds.
8. Press F4 (Enter), and then press F1 (Back).
9. Press F1 (Save), F3 (Apply), F4 (Discard), or F2 (Exit).
Remember to apply saved settings from the Main menu.
Activation configuration
Select Activation configuration options to configure the activation delays for
output groups, investigation times, and general sounders behaviour (sounder
silencing and second stage usage).
Note: This option is not available on repeater panels.
