3-2.5.2.2.12 How to Globally De-Isolate System Outputs
Purpose: To enable the ARIES Control Unit to activate all previously-
isolated SLC-based and control-unit-based outputs (including relays)
3-2.5.2.2.13 How to Execute a User-Defined Inputs/Outputs Isolation Routine
Purpose: To perform multiple input and/or output isolations via a single
menu selection. The inputs and/or outputs to be isolated are assigned
to an "isolation macro" that is defined via the ARIES Configuration
Program. The ARIES Configuration Program permits two "isolation
macros" to be defined. Each macro can process up to ten separate
isolation commands. The specific isolation commands are executed
when either the "Isolation Macro 1" or "Isolation Macro 2" menu
options are selected. The isolation lists can include any of the
following: initiating devices, control modules, or control-unit-based
outputs individually or by address range. This includes automatic
initiating devices, monitor modules, control modules, releasing
circuits, notification-appliance circuits, combination notification-
appliance / releasing circuits, and programmable relays. Refer to the
ARIES Programming Guide for the procedure to assign initiating
devices, control modules, or control-unit-based outputs to either
"Isolation Macro 1" or "Isolation Macro 2".
Note: Selecting the isolation-macro option for a second time will
execute a de-isolation routine for all the devices and/or circuits
that were isolated by the execution of the isolation macro. The
isolation macros toggle the devices in the command lists
between the isolated and non-isolated states.
