4.3 Size Limitations
Each Control-By-Event has a physical size limitation of 14 bytes in control panel memory.
For initiating devices, the Control-By-Event size can be calculated by the following formula:
Size in bytes = 1 + (Number of Zones) + (Number of Control Modules X 3)
Example: The following Control-By-Event takes up 10 bytes in memory.
(Z1 Z6 Z12 L2M4 L7M15)
Size in bytes 1 + ( 3 ) + ( 2 X 3 ) +1 = 11
For notification devices, the Control-By-Event size can be calculated by adding the components involved
using the following values:
( = 1 byte Zones = 1 byte each
) = 1 byte Initiating devices = 3 bytes each
OR( = 1 byte
AND( = 1 byte The time specifications for the
NOT( = 1 byte DEL, TIM, and SDEL operators = 6 bytes
XZONE( = 1 byte
DEL( = 1 byte
TIM( = 1 byte
SDEL( = 1 byte
Examples:
1) The following Control-By-Event takes up 13 bytes in memory:
OR( Z1 Z4 Z9 Z16 Z23 LID3 L2M7 )
Size in bytes 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 3 + 3 + 1 = 13
2) The following CBE takes up 11 bytes in memory:
DEL( 00.00.30 00.01.30 ( Z1 ) )
Size in bytes 1+ 6 +1+1+1+1 = 11
