Provides status of the MX1 connection to the PIB. Fault
indicates that communication is not possible – usually because
the wrong serial port is used, the connection is broken, the PIB
is turned off, or a non PIB device is connected. This will also
indicate fault when a PIB with V1.02 or below firmware is
connected.
Refer to NETWORK CONNECTION STATUS below for
descriptions for the MAF Status text displayed.
Provides status of remote PIB(s) reported by the local PIB that is
connected directly to the MX1.
Provides the external fault status (usually wired to indicate a ring
break on the IP network) of the local PIB that is connected
directly to the MX1.
PIB - Remote
PIB External
Fault (FAS1)
Provides the external fault status (usually wired to indicate a ring
break on the IP network) of remote PIB(s) reported by the local
PIB that is connected directly to the MX1.
PIB - PIB
Internal / IP
Connection
Indicates fault if the PIB has an internal fault (e.g. checksum
failure), or the Ethernet / IP connection has failed.
Indicates fault if the PIB has detected a PSU fault (voltage below
minimum).
PIB - PIB
PLink
Message
Discard
Indicates fault if the PIB has had to discard message(s) on the
Panel-Link interface. This could be due to a wiring fault.
Indicates fault if the PIB has had a queue overflow. This could
be due to a wiring fault, or other network performance problems.
Provides status of the MX1 connection to the other network
interface. Fault indicates that communication is not possible –
usually because the wrong serial port is used, the connection is
broken, the wrong baud rate is selected, or the network interface
is turned off.
Refer to NETWORK CONNECTION STATUS below for
descriptions for the MAF Status text displayed.
NETWORK CONNECTION STATUS
The connection to the I-HUB, PIB or Other network interface
device is working correctly.
The connection to the network interface has been disabled.
The network interface detected does not match the interface
configured in the MX1 panel’s database.
The connection to the network interface has failed.
Another device on the network has the same SID number as
the MX1.
