Device text
Alpha - Address 000-127: This is the default text string displayed on the
standard detector or command module LCD display. If desired, this can be
altered to any 16-character alphanumeric identification. For example, the name
of the area being protected, or the name of the person responsible for fire safety
could be entered. The default device text is the detector model and the firmware
revision level for the standard detector, and “command module” and the firmware
revision level for the command module.
Reference enable
Yes/No - Address 001-127: Setting this function to Yes enables the reference

as a fresh air reference. When entering the Reference sub-menu, the user is
prompted to first select the address of the detector which will be using the
reference, and is then forwarded to this option. To set a detector as a reference
detector, enter its address as set by its internal DIP switch into this function.
Reference level
0-99 - Address 001-127: The value set with this function is the percentage
reference signal subtracted from the detector’s signal, if a reference device has
been allocated.
Back off
0-99 - Address 001-127: This value is the delay time (in seconds) between a
buildup of pollution being seen by the reference (if used) and the pollution being
seen by the detector.

Yes/No - Detectors 000-127: The front panel buttons may be enabled or
disabled individually for the command module or standard detectors by setting
these functions to Yes or No.
