Description
The Description selection allows the programmer to enter additional information about the detector
currently being programmed. This information will be displayed as part of the device label on the
display. Pressing 2 while viewing Edit Detector Screen #5 will cause the following screen to be
displayed:
A flashing cursor will appear at the first asterisk to the left. The programmer can enter additional
descriptive information about the device being programmed. This information will appear on the
display along with the standard device label information.
A maximum of 20 characters (including spaces) can be entered. To enter alphanumeric characters
from the keypad, repeatedly press the appropriate key until the desired character is displayed in the
first position. For example, to enter the letter B, press the 2 (ABC) key three times to toggle
through the characters 2, A and B. Press the right arrow key to move the cursor one position to the
right and repeat the process to enter the next character. To enter a space, press the * (QZ) key four
times until a blank appears in the desired position. When all characters have been entered, press the
Enter key to store the information. The display will return to the Edit Detector Screen #5,
displaying the new information at the bottom of the screen.
Recall/Increment Function
In addition, the user may use the Recall/Increment function at any time when the cursor is on the
first letter of the Description, Adjective or Noun field as follows:
• If the zero key is pressed, a 0 is placed in the first letter position
• If the zero key is then pressed a second time with no intervening key actions, the entire field is
replaced with the field entered for the previous device programmed, and the cursor moves to
the last character of the field (Recall function). The Recalled Adjective or Noun field may
now be changed letter-by-letter
• If the zero key is pressed again with no other intervening key actions and the last character in
the field is a number 0-9, the number is incremented by one. If the last character is a letter, it
changes to a 0. If the last character is 9 it goes to 0
• The above increment function may be repeated with each press of the zero key
As an example, the user could quickly enter ‘FLR_3_ROOM_305’ as follows:
1. The cursor is on the first letter of the Adjective field. Press the zero key twice to display
FLR_3
2. With the cursor on the first letter of the Noun field, press the zero key twice to recall the dis-
play ROOM_304. The cursor automatically jumps from the first to the last letter of the Noun
field
3. With the cursor on the last letter of the Noun field, press the zero key again to increment the
room number to 305
4. Press the right arrow key to advance the zone field
5. Select a zone number from 00 to 99. Z00 (default zone) is the general alarm zone. Z01
through Z99 may be selected to link software zones
