Some subpoints will be programmed such that they cannot
ordinarily be disabled, e.g., detector LED subpoints.
However, if these subpoints are in a Device Fail condition,
they can be forced into a disable state by first logging into
Access Level 3 before using the disable point command(s).
In this case the confirmation screen will describe the
disablement as a “Force Disable”.
If a zone is disabled this will disable functionality for all its points as well,
unless the points map to another zone or their status is used directly. In
this case it will be necessary to disable the points directly.
If all points that map to a zone are disabled then the zone becomes
disabled automatically. It will not be possible to enable the zone until at
least one point that maps to the zone is enabled. Note that you must
separately enable the zone after you have enabled the point.
As soon as a zone is enabled it will resume its programmed
behaviour in activating alarm devices, alarm outputs and
fault outputs.
MX1 uses non-volatile memory to store disable status for
zones, points, ancillary groups and the alarm devices. If the
MX1 is powered down or restarted within 10 seconds of
disabling or enabling a zone, point, etc., then the new status
may not be stored correctly and the old status will remain.
From a recall point status display (refer Chapter 5), press PREVF2 or
NEXTF3 to reach the required point, then press MENUF4.
Press DISABLEF2 or DISABLE to disable or enable the point. In the
confirmation display, press OK to confirm or CANCEL for no action.
If this point is configured so that it cannot be disabled, a message
“This point cannot be disabled” will be displayed briefly.
From the base display, press DISABLE, then POINTF2.
Do not press the f.b.p. DISABLE control when the Alarm List
is being shown unless the intent is to disable the displayed
zone in alarm.
This function requires Access Level 2.
