Disabling and enabling devices
Disabling a device prevents the VM-1 control panel from processing status
change signals from the device, or changing the output state of the device, until
the device is enabled. For example, the VM-1 control panel does not generate an
alarm active event when you activate a disabled detector, but will do so after the
detector is enabled.
The VM-1 control panel keeps track of how many times you disable and enable a
device. You must enable a device the same number of times you disable it in
order to return the device to its initial condition.
Device addresses are listed in Appendix A “System addressing” on page 45.
Notes
• You cannot disable a device configured as a common alarm output.
• Disabling the device address for the dialer or a dialer account deletes all
event messages sent to that account before they are transmitted. The dialer
still transmits the account’s test-abnormal message and any message that
was in the dialer queue before the account was disabled.
• Disabling all of the devices in a zone group automatically disables the zone
group. Enabling any device in the zone group automatically enables the zone
group.
To disable a device:
1. From the Main Menu, choose Disable.
2. Choose Device, and then enter the device address (PPCCDDDD).
3. Enter the access level password.
