Special Function Outputs
Outputs can be assigned to indicate certain conditions within the Cv2. The three special
function outputs are:
Alarm Active
This control allows any one of the eight output ports to be used as an indicator that
an alarm is present in this group. The selected output will remain active while an
alarm is present, acknowledged or not.
New Alarm
This control allows any one of the eight output ports to be used as an indicator that
an unacknowledged alarm (New Alarm) is present in this group. The selected output
will remain active until the group is acknowledged or all new alarms are removed.
Acknowledge Received
This control allows any one of the eight output ports to be used as an indicator that
an Acknowledge Code has been received for this group. The output selected for this
function should be set as a timed output port in the Hardware section. When an
Acknowledge Code is received, the output will turn on and will remain on for the
timed interval.
If the Cv2 is using more than one group, special function outputs of the same type
can be assigned to the same output port in each group to provide a common
indicator, or different groups can use different outputs in order to distinguish
between the groups. Each output that is selected for either Alarm Active, New
Alarm or Acknowledge Received can be used only for that one function. An output
cannot be shared between two of these functions.
If the output selected for one of these functions is currently in use as a remote control
point, with DTMF codes for On and Off operation, the codes will be removed and
the point will become the special function output.
To make any of these functions operational, the output must be selected in the Points
section and enabled.
Default Special Function Output: NONE.
Special Function Input - Acknowledge In
This special function can be used to designate one of the input ports as a local
acknowledge for this group. When the specified input is active, the group will be
acknowledged as though it had received a DTMF Acknowledge Code. If more than
one group is being used, this setting can be the same port to create a common
acknowledge, or different inputs can be selected to provide unique acknowledge
controls.
