9.5.1 Multi-Site Annunciator and Multi-Site User Access
Multi-site annunciators are unique as they can display the status and event history of all sites they are assigned to. These displays can be
especially useful in guard shacks or security centers. A multi-site display is indicated by the words "Multi-Site Display" at the top of the idle
screen.
• The F-Macro keys are disabled until a multi-site user access code has been entered and a specific site has been selected.
• Multi-site Annunciator silencing rules:
– If any new troubles, supervisory, pre-alarms, or alarms are triggered in any assigned sites, Locally Silenced annunciator will resound.
– If a multi-site annunciator is locally silenced for 4 or 24 hours depending on user selection (see "Auto-Resound (4 or 24 hours)" on
page 107), the locally silenced annunciator will resound.
• The 6820 Menu System is disabled on a multi-site annunciator. Pressing the Right or Enter keys will bring you straight into event
history for assigned sites. To get into the menu system, a multi-site user password must be entered and then a site must be selected from
the site selection menu. Once this is done you will have access to the idle screen of that site and the annunciator will temporarily act like
a single site annunciator.
• A multi-site annunciator will sound the highest priority tone from the sites it is assigned to.
A multi-site display is created in Module programming in the edit properties menu for an annunciator. See Section 8.2.1. An annunciator
cannot be programmed as a multi-site display when it is associated with an EVS-VCM or EVS-RVM in an EVS system.
NOTE: A multi-site display is created in Module programming in the edit properties menu for an annunciator. See Section 8.2.1.
9.6 Releasing Operations
The control panel supports two types of releasing: Double Interlock Zone and Single Interlock Zone. The Double Interlock Zone operation
requires an interlock switch input in the system, and the Single Interlock Zone does not. An interlock switch is typically a dry-contact pres-
sure switch.
When Single or Double Interlock Zone releasing is selected using HFSS, the software suite will automatically default the following system
parameters. Defaults can be modified through programming.
• Output Group 2 is created. Output Group 2 will be defaulted as a "Detector Alarm" output group for all releasing zones. NAC [98:001]
is assigned to Output Group 2.
• Output Group 3 is created. Output Group 3 will be defaulted as a "Interlock Release Alert" output group for all releasing zones. NAC
[98:002] is assigned to Output Group 3.
• Output Group 4 is created. Output Group 4 will be defaulted as "Interlock Release Alarm" output group for all releasing zones. NAC
circuit [98:003] is assigned to Output Group 4.
NOTE: The installer must define which input points will be used for detectors, manual release switches, or interlock/pressure switches. For
manual release operation, Installer must use an FM approved/ UL listed releasing manual station
NOTE: For manual release operations, an FM approved/ UL listed releasing manual station must be used. Refer to the Device Compatibility
Document for approved releasing devices.
