ZONES SOFTWARE

Slide 3

What needs to happen?

Slide 4

Intelligent devices with intelligent control panels, allow almost unlimited flexibility through the use of Software Zones!

Slide 5

WHAT IS A SOFTWARE ZONE? FIRST LETS DISCUSS WHAT ITS NOT! A software zone is not a group of devices specifically wired together to form a WIRED ZONE A software zone is not a geographical zone such as a BUILDING OR A FLOOR ZONE

Slide 6

A SOFTWARE ZONE IS: A function within the control panel that allows the programming of a variety of output responses based on various initiating events known as: CBEs (Control By Event)

Slide 7

Word Association HOT TRUE ON HIGH ONE (1) ACTIVE COLD FALSE OFF LOW ZERO (0) INACTIVE

Slide 8

A SOFTWARE ZONE HAS JUST TWO STATES: ACTIVE or INACTIVE

Slide 9

The control panel operates CBEs through Lists of ZONES.

Slide 10

A ZONE becomes listed when it is added to a device points ZONE map through POINT PROGRAMMING

Slide 11

These lists are associations between INPUTS and OUTPUTS.

Slide 12

A zone (ZONE 47) mapped to a smoke detectors CBE list and the same zone (ZONE 47) mapped to a NACs CBE list constitute an association. BASIC EXAMPLE

Slide 13

Now, lets assume that the detectors goes into alarm. ZONE 47

Slide 14

The control panel during its polling cycle determines that the detector is in alarm. ZONE 47

Slide 15

THE ZONE(s) IN THE DETECTORS CBE LIST NOW BECOME ACTIVE. ZONE47

Slide 16

The control panel checks to see if there are any devices that have ZONE (Z47) mapped to their CBE lists. The control panel identifies the NAC as having ZONE (Z47) in its CBE list.

Slide 17

The control panel activates the NAC. 47 ZONE

Slide 18

(Note: The ZONE (Z47) did not activate the NAC)

Slide 19

Please note: THE DETECTOR AND THE NAC DO NOT HAVE TO BE ON THE SAME (SIGNALING LINE CIRCUIT) SLC!!!!
