DO Board Records Creation
When you add a 16 DO board, sixteen (16) digital output records are created.
Example: 0001-1-01 DO
This digital output is on micro 1, board 1, point 1. To change this description, type over the existing text
and save the record. It is recommended that you keep the
mmm-b-pp
prefix in each digital output
description displayed to aid in locating the alarm points on the physical hardware. This field accepts a
maximum of 32 characters.
DO Groups Tab
Alarm Form
Use this tab to link digital output groups to an alarm. When this alarm is triggered, the linked digital output
groups are also triggered. The digital outputs will remain active until the alarm is reset, regardless of any
specified on-time setting for the DOs, unless it is the primary/local group.
• If it is the primary/local group, the DOs will follow their specified ON-time setting.
• If there is a reader in the primary/local group, the reader will follow the alarm state.
• If the DOs in the primary/local group are set to 0 for the ON time, that will force the DO to
follow the state of the alarm or input.
Be aware that Invalid Badge alarms and Lost Badge alarms do not reset. If you assign a DO Group to
either of these alarms, the alarm will go inactive or turn off when acknowledging or purging.
Output Groups: This windowpane displays assigned digital output groups. The digital output groups can
be on a local or other micro.
Assign DO Groups: Click to display a
Digital Output Group Assignment dialog box, allowing you to
select and assign alarm DO groups that you want associated with this alarm record.
Primary/Local Output Group: The first local output group in the list of assigned output groups will
automatically display as the primary. You can select another output group as primary from the output
groups displayed in the windowpane. If the selection is not on a local micro, the assignment arrow button
is dimmed and unavailable for assignment as a primary output group. If the micro is offline or unable to
communicate with the host at the time of an alarm, only the Primary/Local DO group is triggered.
DO Groups Tab
Digital Input Form
Use this tab to link digital output groups to a Digital Input. When this Digital Input is triggered, the linked
digital output groups are also triggered. The digital outputs will remain active until the alarm is reset,
regardless of any specified on-time setting for the DOs, unless it is the primary/local group.
• If it is the primary/local group, the DOs will follow their specified ON-time setting.
• If there is a reader in the primary/local group, the reader will follow the Digital Input state.
• If the DOs in the primary/local group are set to
0
for the ON time, that will force the DO to
follow the state of the alarm or input.
Be aware that Invalid Badge alarms and Lost Badge alarms do not reset. If you assign a DO Group to
either of these alarms, the alarm will go inactive or turn off when acknowledging or purging.
Output Groups: This windowpane displays assigned digital output groups. The digital output groups can
be on a local or other micro.
Assign DO Groups: Click to display a
Digital Output Group Assignment dialog box, allowing you to

groups displayed in the windowpane. If the selection is not on a local micro, the assignment arrow button
is dimmed and unavailable for assignment as a primary output group. If the micro is offline or unable to
communicate with the host at the time of an alarm, only the Primary/Local DO group is triggered.
