An area is defined as a group of zones. Ninety-nine areas are provided. Zones are
assigned to areas using the Zone Menu Screen (see Page 96).
An area will be in a fire alarm or fault warning state if any of the zones assigned to the
area are in a fire alarm or a fault warning state. The Area status can be used as an input
for I/O switching and is particularly useful for evacuation type operation. Area fire and
fault status is not logged in the event buffer. Area coincidence, if enabled, will be logged
when the condition occurs.
Each Area can have five adjacent areas assigned to it. Output switching can be
programmed for adjacent areas of the area in fire or fault. For example: An evacuation
signal can be sent to an Area in fire and a warning signal can be sent to the Adjacent
Areas.
The functions of the screen are:
• Area: 1—99 - Select the area to be viewed or modified
• Status: enable/disable - An area disabled will cause no action in
the I/O logic, event buffer, and adjacent
area operation.
