2.6  FlashScan Poll
From the “Program Change Selection” screen, press the 4 key to access the 
“FlashScan Poll” selection screen as shown below:
 
This menu allows the selection of CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) or FlashScan detectors 
and modules for each loop. Once this screen is accessed, the cursor will be positioned underneath 
the Loop #1 Detector selection, blinking the currently selected protocol type. The default selections 
are shown in the above figure. This indicates that both Loop #1 and Loop #2 detectors and modules 
are selected to use CLIP devices. If FlashScan devices are to be employed, change the blinking 
cursor by pressing the Y key or toggle it by using the 
PREVIOUS or NEXT key. After the selections 
have been made to the detectors and modules of both loops, press the 
ENTER key, at which time the 
panel will reset.
Most FlashScan devices can be programmed to run in either CLIP or FlashScan mode. Observe one 
of the following three options when using FlashScan devices:
Option 1 Program all modules and detectors on an SLC as FlashScan.
(In the “FlashScan Poll” screen, enter Y for DET and Y for MOD. It is possible to 
have up to 159 FlashScan modules and 159 FlashScan detectors on this SLC.)
IP ACCESS Note: Use of this option is subject to local AHJ approval.
This option allows the programmer to choose one of three options for Wide Area Network 
(WAN) communication. Acceptance of commands, downloads and programming from over the 
WAN can be enabled, disabled or timed.
Select IP ACCESS as follows:
• Select 0 to disable IP access
• Select 1 to enable IP access
• Select 2 to enable IP access for two hours.
Note that enabling IP ACCESS allows downloads over a local area network (LAN) or the 
internet (Wide Area Network - WAN) using VeriFire Tools through a Noti•Fire•Net(NFN) Web 
Server (NWS), or a wide-area enabled NCS through a PC version of NFN Gateway. Always 
verify system operation after programming changes are made in this manner.
DCC Mode This option allows the programmer to select whether this panel will participate in DCC (Display 
and Control Center) functions. Select Y for participation, N for no participation.
NOTE: For Mass Notification applications, DCC participation should be disabled.
