Custom Control is used for custom functions such as selective signaling/control,
cross zoning pre-signal, and many other possible functions. Equations are
written by the programmer to describe the various operations of the 4010 FACP.
SMPL programming can be used to customize the operation of various points
while the remaining points operate as general alarm points. SMPL programming
is programmed through the front panel interface or from the PC Programmer
tool.
The 4010 base panel is configured (and shipped) as a general alarm system. You
must program the Custom Control option when more sophisticated operations
are required.
Custom Control equations are developed to define specified operations. Each
equation contains interrelated statements, which consists of the INPUT SIDE
and OUTPUT SIDE. Version 2.01 or later of the 4010 accepts up to 60
programming equations, each consisting of up to six statements total from the
front panel. Older versions of the panel accept 40 equations.
Custom Control is used to customize the operation of an output, while the rest of
the system continues to operate as a general alarm system. SMPL also allows
the programmer to modify the operation of points to be used in non-alarm
functions. A point can be selected as a non-alarm, tracking (non-latching) point.
The 4010 has resident editing capability. Once the programming mode is
selected, the Custom Control is programmed through a series of menu options.
Once all the equations are entered, you can scroll through the Custom Control
programming to review its contents. If errors are found, you can then insert new
data or delete existing data. When you are satisfied with the program, you must
exit the Custom Control mode to save all data to the 4010 CFIG chip.
Once programmed with Custom Control and back on line, the 4010 handles its
inputs and outputs differently. The 4010 checks to see what inputs and outputs
have been changed by the Custom Control programmed equations. Outputs not
used in the Custom Control program remain general alarm outputs. Outputs
which have new defined operations operate as specified in the Custom Control
equations.
Caution: Once an output is used in a Custom Control equation, it
no longer responds to the general alarm monitor points.
