Operating Instructions—IFC-200 Operating Instructions 9
Four-indicating appliance (bell) circuits have control-by-event statements
and trouble functions similar to M510CJ modules on the SLC loop.
Differences are:
● Addresses (last three digits in LCD field ) are B01, B02, B03 or B04.
● The default type code field is “BELL CIRCUIT.”
● Circuits may be used for the following coded functions (M510CJ
modules may not): March Time, California Code, Temporal, and
Two-stage.
Control-By-Events (CBE) in the IFC-200 are done through 99 software
zones. Each system point (detector, monitor module, control module, or
indicating appliance circuit) may list up to five zones in its program
information. A General alarm zone (Z00) may be listed for output
(control) points, but is not necessary to list for input points. Z00 is not
activated by non-alarm or supervisory points.
If any input device (detector or monitor module) becomes active, and it is
not disabled, it activates all software zones in its list. An output device
(M510CJ module or indicating appliance (bell) circuit) that is not disabled
is turned on if any of the software zones in its list are active. This is
basically an “or” functionality. Zones 90 through 99 are reserved for
special functions such as cross-zoning (see the IFC-200
Programming/Status Change Technical Bulletin in this manual).
Zones 91, 92, 93, and 94 are reserved for special releasing functions. This
allows for up to 4 simultaneous release operations. Each zone includes the
following:
Delay--is the programmed time from alarm activation of an initiating
device mapped to this zone, until activation of all output devices mapped
to this zone. If cross-zoning is selected, the delay timer starts when two or
more devices are in alarm. The timer XX values may be set from
0 seconds to 60 seconds. If Abort or Manual Release type M500MJ
modules are mapped to this zone they affect the timer operation as defined
below.
Abort--is the type of abort algorithm used by the zone. It may be one of
the following four types: ULI, IRI, NYC, or AHJ, defined as in Table 1.
