5-8.2.3 PROCESS GROUP 0 EVENTS
Each control unit can be configured to Process Group 0 Events. This means that a node
will process events from a group 0 node in addition to commands. A node configured
with a non-zero group number and to Process Group 0 Events would be capable of the
following interactions:
• Displaying and logging all network events from nodes within its group or group 0
• Activating its outputs upon any initiating event from all control in its group or
group 0
• Issuing acknowledge, silence, and reset commands to all control units in its group
or group 0
• Processing acknowledge, silence, and reset commands from all control units in
its group or group 0
Figure 5-5 shows the possible interactions among the various members of a selectively
signaling networked system with groupings, with one control unit designated as the
master control unit and with group nodes also configured to process group 0 events.
