3-3.1.1 ISOLATION MACROS FROM SOFT KEY AND ADDRESSABLE INPUT
The above steps performed from the menu to execute Isolation Macros can also be performed using
a soft key or an SLC based Addressable Input device. The four (4) <SOFTKEYS> can be
programmed using the ARIES NETLink menu system or the remote configuration software (ACT
8000) as Isolation Macros. The system will, when a soft key configured for Isolation Macro is
pressed, prompt for the installer level password and execute the isolation process. A subsequent
press of the soft key and password entry will execute the de-isolation process.
An SLC based AI device can be configured to activate an Isolation Macro. The AI should be in a locked
enclosure and when activated would execute the Isolation Macro that it is configured for. Deactivation
of the switch will execute the de-isolation process.
3-3.2 LIST MENU FUNCTIONS
The List functions are used to view the set of isolated initiating devices and control unit-based and
SLC-based outputs. These functions are also used to display configuration settings for automatic
initiating devices, to display the list of devices on the SLC, and to view lower-level events that are not
displayed due to the occurrence of higher-level events.
Figure 3-14 through Figure 3-18 outline the List menu functions. Each function is explained in detail
in the remainder of Section 3-3.2.
