System Configuration
9.11 Display Configuration
The main and adder display modules on the front panel are automatically updated to display
all circuits found whenever the function “Resize - Adder Module Number and Type
Configuration” is performed. The main display module has dedicated trouble LEDs for the four
indicating circuits on the main fire alarm module. The eight initiating circuits (four in Class A
mode) also on the main fire alarm module are annunciated on the first column of display points
(from top to bottom). Any adder module circuits are displayed after the base system input
circuits in the same order as the adder modules have been installed (that is from right to left).
For example, if there are two eight-circuit initiating circuit adder modules and one four-circuit
indicating circuit adder module, the main display will annunciate 24 initiating circuits followed
by four indicating circuits. If the fire alarm control panel is configured for Class A (Style D)
initiating circuits, then the number of initiating circuits is cut in half, so that in the example
above, there will only be a total of 12 initiating circuits annunciated, followed by the four adder
indicating circuits. Refer to Figure 27 on page 49 to see how the first 24 circuits are mapped to
display points.
Any configured RA-1000 Series Remote Annunciators automatically match the main fire alarm
control panel displays, except that there will be no annunciation of Common Alarm, Common
Supervisory, Battery/Charger Trouble, Ground Fault and Four-Signal trouble indicators.
Notes: The feature called “Output Circuit Correlations Enabled” must be ON for
indicating circuit correlations to operate (see 9.8 Configuration Features on
page 66), otherwise all indicating circuits will be common alarm. This means that
they will all activate with any input circuits configured as alarms. Relay circuits are
always enabled for correlations.
If the system is configured as two stage, any second stage / general alarm
(caused by the Auto General Alarm timer, the General Alarm button on the front
panel or remote annunciator, or by a General Alarm initiating circuit) condition
activates all indicating circuits whether or not they are correlated.
