SPECTRA SERIES 39
PART 9: PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUTS
A PGM is a programmable output that toggles to its opposite state (i.e. a normally open PGM will close) when a specific event
has occurred in the system. For example, a PGM can be used to reset smoke detectors, activate bells or strobe lights, open/
close garage doors and much more. When a PGM closes, the control panel supplies a ground to the PGM activating any
device or relay connected to it. When a PGM opens, the circuit opens from ground, therefore, cutting power to any devices
connected to it.
PGM1
A programmable output that provides a maximum of 150mA. Refer to Programmable Output Connections on page 10.
PGM2
Available only on the 1758 and 1758EX control panels, PGM2 is a programmable output that can provide up to 2.5A. PGM2
was designed to be used as a Strobe Output, for information refer to PGM Strobe Options on page 40. For specifications and
information on how to connect PGM2, refer to Programmable Output Connections on page 10.
Global PGM
The Global PGM allows you to use the control panel’s PGM Event List to activate PGMs located on a module or LCD keypad.
For example, if you were to enable a module’s “Follows Global PGM” option (see pages 49 and 51), the PGM on the module
would activate whenever the event programmed in section [124] has occurred. Every PGM on every keypad and/or
expansion module can be programmed to follow the event(s) defined by the Global PGM.
9.1 PGM ACTIVATION EVENT
Sections [120], [122], [124]
This feature allows you to program the control panel to activate a PGM when a specific event occurs in the system.
The PGM will remain in its active state until the programmed PGM De-Activation Event occurs (see below) or when
the PGM Delay period has elapsed (see page 40). To program a PGM Activation Event:
1. Enter section that represents the desired PGM. PGM1 = [120], PGM2 = [122], Global PGM = [124]
2. Enter the Event Group # (refer to the PGM table in the Spectra Programming Guide).
3. Enter the Sub-Group # (refer to the PGM table in the Spectra Programming Guide).
4. Enter the Partition #
01 = Partition 1
02 = Partition 2
99 = Both Partitions
Please note that the “AC Loss” PGM Event will only occur after the Power Failure Report Delay has
elapsed (see page 37).
9.2 PGM DE-ACTIVATION EVENT
Sections [121], [123], [125]
After PGM activation (see above), the PGM will return to its normal state (deactivate) when the programmed PGM
De-activation Event occurs. Instead of de-activating the PGM on the occurrence of a specific event, the PGM can
de-activate after a programmed period has elapsed, please refer to PGM Delay. If using the PGM Delay, these
sections can be used as a second activation event.
1. Enter section that represents the desired PGM. PGM1 = [121], PGM2 = [123], Global PGM = [125]
2. Enter the Event Group # (refer to the PGM table in the Spectra Programming Guide).
3. Enter the Sub-Group # (refer to the PGM table in the Spectra Programming Guide).
4. Enter the Partition #
01 = Partition 1
02 = Partition 2
99 = Both Partitions
