Installation & Configuration Manual
The output ports on the expanders are all single pole relay type outputs (NO, COM,
NC); therefore, output devices may need external power sources to activate if they
are wired to expander outputs.
The activation of a particular output type depends on the zone type (see page
[âž™ 347]) or alert condition that triggered the activation. If multiple areas are defined
on the system then the outputs on the SPC are grouped into system outputs and
area outputs; the system outputs are activated to indicate a system wide event
(e.g. mains fault) whereas the area outputs indicate events detected in one or more
of the defined areas on the system. Each area has its own set of area outputs; if
the area is a common area for other areas, then its outputs will indicate the state of
all the areas it is common for, including its own state. For example, if Area 1 is
common for Area 2 and 3, and Area 2 Ext. Bell is active, then the Area 1 Ext Bell
output is also active.
Some output types can only indicate system wide events (no specific area
events). Please refer to the table below for further information.
This output type is used to activate the system external bell and is active when any
Area External Bell is active. By default, this output is assigned to the first output on the
controller board (EXT+, EXT-).
Note: An external bell output is automatically activated whenever a zone programmed
as an Alarm zone triggers an alarm in Fullset or Partset modes.
This output type is used to activate the strobe on the system external bell and is active
when any area strobe is active. By default, this output is assigned to the strobe relay
output (Output 3) on the Controller board (NO, COM, NC).
Note: An external bell strobe output is automatically activated whenever a zone
programmed as an alarm zone triggers an alarm in Fullset or Partset modes. The
external bell strobe activates on a ’Fail to Set’ condition if the strobe on the ’Fail to Set’
option is checked in system options.
This output type is used to activate the internal bell and is active when any area
Internal Bell is active. By default, this output is assigned to the second output on the
controller board (INT+, INT-).
Note: An internal bell output is automatically activated whenever a zone programmed
as an Alarm zone type triggers an alarm in Fullset or Partset modes. The internal Bell
activates on a ’Fail to Set’ condition if the Bell on the ’Fail to Set’ option is checked in
system options.
This output turns on following alarm zone activation on the system or from any area
defined on the system.
This output turns on when an alarm has been confirmed. An alarm is confirmed when 2
independent zones on the system (or within the same Area) activate within a set time
period).
This output turns on following activation of panic alarm zone types from any area. A
panic alarm output is also generated if a user duress event is generated or if the panic
option for the keypad is enabled.
This output turns on whenever a zone programmed as a Hold-up type zone triggers an
alarm from any area
This output turns on following a fire zone activation on the system (or from any area)
This output turns on when a tamper condition is detected from any part of the system.
For a grade 3 system, if communication is lost to an XBUS device for greater than
100s, a tamper is generated and SIA and CIR reported events will send a tamper.
This output turns on when a medic zone is activated
This output turns on when a technical fault is detected
This output follows tech zone activity
This output activates when Mains power is removed
