Detector Status Display Intelligent Sensing Applications
C.5.3 To Interpret a Detector Status Display or Maintenance Report
The Detector Read Status Screen and Detector Maintenance Report provides the same information
(such as Device Status, Peak Value) about a detector. This section contains descriptions of each
item that appears in a Detector Read Status Screen or a Detector Maintenance Report.
Display Information
Lines 1- 4 - This could display any current event message, or, as in this example, the System
Normal message
Line 5 - Screen title and the address of the point being read
The area between the separator lines, lines 6-14, shows all information concerning the selected
point, which is L03D052 in the above example.
Line 6 - Line 6 displays two statistics that display for inputs (detectors and modules) and zones; in
the above example they are:
AUTOMATIC INACTIVE
The first field displays the point control. There are three designations that could appear in this field
The second field displays the point status. There are two designations that could appear in this field.
The device is a detector (an input device) so by referring to the descriptions below, it can be
determined that the point is in a normal state.
Inputs: (detectors, monitor modules, zones)
If the point is not in fault or disabled, and the point is automatically controlled by the panel, the
display will be one of the following:
AUTOMATIC INACTIVE

If the point is disabled, the display will be one of the following. The Fault Status field will appear if
the point is in fault.

If the point is in fault, the display will read:
