CBE (Control-By-Event) is a software function that provides a means to program a
variety of output responses based on various initiating events. The control panel
operates Control-By-Event (CBE) through 99 Software Zones with the following
features:
• Each input point (detector, monitor module) can list up to five Software Zones
• Each output point (control module, NAC, Panel Circuit) can list up to five Software
Zones
• Output points can list zone Z00 (general alarm). Non-Alarm or Supervisory points
do not activate Software Zone Z00 (general alarm)

Input and output devices with CBE-listed Software Zones work as follows:

Twenty logic or time delay equations are included in the control panel. Each equation
can be a logic equation or a time delay function. A time delay function can have a logic
equation as an internal equation, but not vice versa. The rules of the equations are:
1. Equations can be entered
, edited and viewed in the Veri•Fire 600 Upload/
Download program, but can only be viewed
on the control panel.
2. Equations will always begin with a logic or a time delay function.
3. Equations will be a maximum of 73 characters long, including parenthesis and
commas.
4. Equations can have a maximum of 10 logic functions, the function set is listed
below.
5. These equations are to be evaluated after all other devices have been evaluated.
6. The equations are designated as ZE0-ZE9 and ZL0-ZL9, and are evaluated in that
order.
7. One logic equation can be used as a variable in another equation only if the
equation used has previously been evaluated. The results of the ZE0 equation can
be used in the ZL5 equation but the opposite is not true.
8. Time delay equations can use any other functions as internal equation, but the other
function can not use time delay equation as internal equation.
9. A logic instruction can have a maximum of 20 arguments (inclusive start and stop
address if the RANGE is used).
10. Maximum for the delay timer is 18 hours 12 minutes.
These devices Operate with CBE as follows
Inputs (detectors, monitor modules) When an input device activates, so do all Software
Zones listed to the input device.
Outputs (control modules and NACs,
and Panel Circuits)
When a Software Zone activates, the output device
turns on.
