5.3.1 Alter Status Menu Options
After you enter the correct password/user ID and press the ALTER STATUS soft key from the Program/Alter Status menu, the NCA-2
navigates to the screen with menu options shown in Figure 5.5. BACK or <ESC> will return to the PROGRAM/ALTER STATUS
ENTRY screen discussed in “After a valid password is entered, the NCA-2 will navigate to the PROGRAM/ALTER STATUS ENTRY
screen. There are three possible menus, which are detailed in the upcoming sections:” on page 56.
Figure 5.5 Alter Status Menu
5.3.2 Disable/Enable
Disable/enable individual control points on a remote fire panel node. It is for use across a network only; not for use with display nodes
such as the NCA-2 or NCS.
Figure 5.6 is displayed when you select DISABLE/ENABLE from the Alter Status Menu. Identify which point(s) to disable/enable. If
there is an event in the display area, that address will be the default. This allows you to quickly read the point being displayed. If no
event is present, the default format is that of a detector. To scroll through device types, press the POINT SELECT soft key. When you
have selected the desired device type, enter the device address, then press the ACCEPT soft key to accept the entry or <ESC> to exit.
The soft key BACK will also exit without saving. The NCA-2 will display the Enable/Disable screen. If the point does not exist or the
node is off-line, the NCA-2 will display an error screen. This screen will be displayed for three seconds and return to the previous screen.
After selecting a point, the NCA-2 will display that point and give the option of enabling or disabling it. If the point is enabled, the cor-
responding option is not visible, letting the user know the current setting of that point. To exit the screen without changing the
enable/disable status, press BACK or the <ESC> key.
