Modes and Special Functions
1.8 Modes and Special Functions
1.8.1 Normal Mode
Normal Mode is the standard mode of operation. In this mode, the UDACT-F monitors host FACP status as well as
monitoring telephone line voltage. The UDACT-F reports system status information to UL listed Central Stations.
Information transmitted includes general alarm, trouble and supervisory. It also transmits either the number of zones
or points activated or the specific point(s) activated. Specific system trouble conditions and specific UDACT-F trou-
bles are also transmitted.
1.8.2 Program Mode
Program Mode is used to program the UDACT-F. While the UDACT-F is in the program mode, it cannot receive host
FACP status information. Refer to “Programming Instructions” on page 27, for complete programming instructions.
1.8.3 Lamp Test Mode
This mode turns on all segments of the four character display plus all LEDs on the UDACT-F.
1.8.4 Troubleshoot Mode
Troubleshoot Mode may be used for testing the telephone line wiring. Connection from the UDACT-F's modular
jacks, through RJ31X jacks and into the telephone network may be easily checked. In this mode, the keypad acts sim-
ilar to a telephone touchpad.
1.8.5 Type Mode
Type Mode is used to define the specific type of device (point) used or function of a zone. This mode is also used to
disable the alarm report for any zone/point in the system. The feature which disables the zone/point alarm report
must be used for zones/points programmed into the host FACP as remote silence, reset, drill or acknowledge
switches.
1.8.6 Clear Function
When the clear function is activated, it causes the UDACT-F to immediately stop transmissions, hang-up from the
telephone network, clear out any messages that were waiting for transmission and reset.
1.8.7 Manual Test Function
The manual test function allows for a test report message to be sent to both Central Stations upon activation.
