62 AFP-200 Instruction PN 15511:F2 10/11/99
4.6 Supervisory Operation
Supervisory operation is similar to alarm operation, but with the following differences:
• The piezo sounds a warbling tone.
• The Supervisory LED flashes.
• The LCD display status banner is ACTIVE.
• Silenced alarms do not resound.
• Timers do not start
• The Supervisory relay activates.
• The Alarm relay does not activate.
A typical supervisory event display is shown in the
screen to the right.
Note that, like alarms, supervisory signals latch and
may have their own Control-by-Event. They do not
cause resound of alarms or reactivation of silenced
alarm CBE. Supervisory circuits may also open
circuit troubles, which operate like any other trouble.
If the event is a security point activation, this LED will operate the same as a supervisory, but the LCD display
will show the security type code. Refer to Appendix E for further information on security alarms.
4.7 Non-Alarm Point Operation
Non-alarm points are MMX modules that activate CBE but do not activate the System Alarm LED or the piezo
sounder. These points are tracking and have three type codes:
• Non fire codes send a message to the LCD, history file, printer, or LCD-80, except when the system is in
alarm. They are generally used for energy management or other non-fire situations.
• Hazard Alert codes send a message to the LCD, history file, printer, and LCD-80 (status is ACTIVE), and
activate the four Notification Appliance Circuits steadily, regardless of the coding selection in Zone 98. These
points may be used for monitoring critical processes or other hazardous situations, such as a tornado.
• Fire Control codes send messages to the LCD, history file, printer and LCD-80, regardless of the state of the
control panel. These codes are generally used for air handler shutdown and are intended to override automatic
fire functions.
4.8 Trouble Monitor Point Operation
Trouble monitor-type MMX modules monitor remote power supplies or other external equipment. Operation is
similar to trouble operation but with the following differences:
• The display status banner is ACTIVE.
• The type code is TROUBLE MON.
• The modules latch.
• The modules may have control-by-event.
