equations combining the macro inputs (macro events) and timed or latched
output conditions.
Up to 48 macros can be defined for the Network Access Controller.
Macro events are used as the macro logic program’s inputs. Up to four macro
inputs may be included in the logic equation. Each macro input in the logic
equation can be programmed as an AND or an OR function and may be inverted
to formulate NAND and NOR equations.
Options are provided so that the macro’s result will trigger a macro output
(event), which may be a pulse, timed, on delay, off delay or latched when
activated. The output event can be inverted.
For more information on macro logic programming, refer to the ChallengerPlus
Programming Manual.
To program a DGP macro for the NAC, do the following in CTPlus:
1. Click the Macro logic button on the Panel programming ribbon tab
and select DGP macros from the drop-down list to open the DGP macros
form.
2. On the DGP macros form, click the New button in the toolbar to add a
new macro record.
3. Enter a description for the macro in the Record description field.
4. Ensure the DGP field is set to the NAC. If necessary, click the Browse
button next to the DGP field to select the NAC.
5. Configure the macro as required on the Setup tab. Refer to the “Macro
options” section below.
6. Click the Save button in the toolbar to save the macro record.
Macro options
Function
The result of the macro’s logic and the macro’s output function will trigger an
event flag. The macro’s output may have timing functions.
Disabled – This macro logic program is disabled.
Non-timed – Follows the result of the logic equation only. If a macro input
for this macro changes, the logic equation will be calculated again.
On pulse (1-255) seconds – Activates for the programmed time or the
active period of the logic result, whichever is the shortest.
On pulse (1-255) minutes – Activates for the programmed time or the
active period of the logic result, whichever is the shortest.
On timed (1-255) seconds – Activates for the programmed time regardless
of the macro inputs changing.
On timed (1-255) minutes – Activates for the programmed time regardless
of the macro inputs changing.
