G.3 Type Codes for Input Devices
Overview
This section provides a list of Type Codes for intelligent detectors and for monitor modules. The
following Point Types light an LED at the panel when activated.
•fire alarm - lights the
FIRE ALARM LED
•supervisory - lights the
SUPERVISORY LED
•security - lights the
SECURITY LED
•trouble - lights the
TROUBLE LED
Type Codes for Intelligent Detectors
Following is a list of intelligent detector Type Codes, which specify the type of detector installed at
an SLC address.

Device/Point Function
SMOKE (ION) fire alarm Y Y Ionization smoke detector
SUP L(ION) supervisory Y Y Ionization smoke detector
SUP T(ION)** supervisory N Y Ionization smoke detector
SMOKE(DUCTI) fire alarm Y Y Duct Ionization smoke detector
SUP L(DUCTI) supervisory Y Y Duct ionization smoke detector
SUP T(DUCTI)** supervisory N Y Ionization smoke detector used as a duct detector to report supervisory
condition rather than alarm.
SMOKE(PHOTO) fire alarm Y Y Photoelectric smoke detector
SUP L(PHOTO) supervisory Y Y Photoelectric smoke detector
SUP T(PHOTO) ** supervisroy N Y Photoelectric smoke detector
SMOKE(DUCTP) fire alarm Y Y Duct Photoelectric smoke detector
SUP L(DUCTP) supervisory Y Y Photoelectric smoke detector used as a duct detector to report
supervisory condition rather than alarm
SUP T(DUCTP)** supervisory N Y Photoelectric smoke detector used as a duct detector to report
supervisory condition rather than alarm.
RFSMOKE(PHOTO) fire alarm Y Y Wireless Photoelectric smoke detector
SMOKE(HARSH) fire alarm Y Y HARSH smoke detector
SMOKE(LASER) fire alarm Y Y Laser smoke detector
AIR REF fire alarm Y Y Assign to one or more FSL-751 detectors used to monitor the quality
of air entering the protected area. The air quality measurement allows
the VIEW system to compensate for vehicle fumes, fog, or other
particles brought into the protected area through the ventilation system.
Poor air quality will lower the sensitivity of all FSL-751 detectors on
the SLC. The detector sensitivity, however, remains within approved
limits (always less than 1% obscuration per foot).
Note: A reference detector still functions as a smoke detector, but the detector sensitivity level should be set to the least sensitive
level—AL:9 and PA:9 Alarm and Pre-Alarm sensitivity. Refer to “Detector Sensitivity Settings” on page 109 for a complete list of
detector sensitivity settings.
