Alarm Setting

EverAccess Flex controller is equipped with powerful alarm functions. With alarm

modules and door modules fully installed, the controller can accommodate up to 10

alarm inputs and 18 alarm outputs. At the meantime, EverAccess Flex controller also

provide very flexible configuration. Any event can be arbitrarily allocated to single or

multiple alarm outputs. Alarm components, configuration basics, and menu settings

are introduced below.

Components for Alarm

EverAccess Flex controller consists of two basic components: one main module and

one door module. User can install three more door modules and one alarm module.

These three types of module are all equipped with alarm function. The main module

has 2 alarm inputs, corresponding to fire alarm and Alarm In 0 . It has 2 alarm

outputs as well, called Main Alarm Output and Auxiliary Alarm Output respectively.

Each door module has 2 alarm outputs, which usually react to alarm events on the

corresponding door. However, it can be set to react to other alarm events as well.

Alarm outputs on the door module can connect up to 5A external alarm devices.

Alarm module has 8 alarm inputs and 8 alarm outputs. 8 alarm inputs can connect to

external alarm input devices, such as PIR motion sensor, glass sensor and etc. 8 alarm

outputs can connect up to 2A external alarm devices.

The above mentioned are physical devices providing alarm function. User can freely

define the allocation of any input to any output. The following section outlines basic

concepts for events, alarm and configuration.
