3-6 OPERATION
FIREFINDER-XLS INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL | CHAPTER 3
Event counts in PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3s and SSDs may differ because SSDs currently display
only “primitive” (individual) events, while a PMI/PMI-2/PMI-3 whose devices are pro-
grammed into groups in Zeus will display only one queue event per group.
In a GCNET (Global Control Network) system, each PMI can be configured to display
local events or all events in the Building, but it cannot display events from different
Buildings.
The SSD is only capable of displaying Alarm, Supervisory, Security, and Trouble
events. It will not be able to acknowledge those events if unacknowledged higher
priority events which cannot be displayed on the SSD are active, such as MNS-1. If
the node is configured to display expanded queues, its SSDs must be configured as
Display-only.
Alarm When an alarm is detected, the red Alarm LED blinks, the System’s internal audible
sounds steady, the Audibles On LED glows steady, and the alarm event displays on
the screen with a blinking exclamation mark (!) See Figure 3-6. The event listing
displays the Event Custom Message, the Time of the event occurrence and the
Alarm Event Category (refer to the Alarm Event: Category Cross Reference Table).
