Event Priority; 1: System Control; 2: System Override - Honeywell Farenhyt Series Manual

System Operation
Send/Receive Firmware Updates
The IFP-300 has the ability to be updated in the field. The latest IFP-300 Firmware Update Utility can be downloaded from the Farenhyt
website, www.farenhyt.com. Once a panel has been updated using the Firmware Update Utility, you can use Send/Receive firmware updates
to propagate the firmware to the other panels in the network.
1. Press 2 to send a firmware update or press 3 to receive a firmware update from the System Information Menu. Available panels are
listed in the Menu.
2. Use the up or down arrow key to select a panel to send/receive an update to/from. Press ENTER to start the update process.
Feature Activation
This menu is used to activate/register additional features.
1. Press 4 from the System Information menu. This option will bring up the Feature Activation menu.
2. Press 1 to enter a six digit activation code or press 2 to review the features already activated in this panel.
Ethernet Info
1. Press 5 from the System Information Menu for the Ethernet Information.
AlarmNet Info
Press 6 from the System Information menu for AlarmNet Info.
• Cell Strength: 0 to 100%
• Status: Registered/Not Registered
AlarmNet Temporary PIN
Press 7 from the System Information menu to enter an AlarmNet Temporary PIN. This is issued by AlarmNet to register a new panel in case
the existing FACP is ever replaced.

9.4 Event Priority

This section describes how the event activations are handled by the control panel with regards to priority.
9.4.1 System Control
The IFP-300 control panel integrates both a fire and emergency system into one. When events are active from both systems, the control panel
makes intelligent decisions to determine which system should be controlling outputs. This is called System Control. This manual will refer to
the fire or emergency systems having System Control, this means that the system has an active alarm or supervisory event that has a higher
event priority than an active alarm or supervisory event from the other system. For this consideration, the control panel looks at the highest
priority event active on each system. When both systems are active, the system with control will activate System Override. System Override
is activated on the lower priority, non-System Control panel system (fire or emergency system.).
9.4.2 System Override
System Override temporarily disengages output group activations from the system being overridden. This is done to not provide conflicting
messages and signaling and help with reducing confusion of the building occupants.
When output groups are supposed to be active but are not because System Control has activated System Override, they are re-activated every
30 seconds for 2-3 seconds to indicate to the building occupants that there is still an event active. This will only occur when the system with
System Control is not using the output group. The System Override option is programmable for non-voice output groups on a per output
group basis through the panel output group programming menus and in HFSS. In these places, the option is called Allow System Override,
and defaults to YES. It is also possible to not reactivate the output groups every 30 seconds when System Override is active on a per system
basis. This option is programmable in HFSS.
There are times when you would not want to allow System Override for an output group. For example: fire is programmed to an elevator
relay to bring the elevator to the bottom floor for fire only. If fire and ECS are active with ECS being the higher priority event, you still need
the elevator to move to the bottom floor and only audible and visual notification appliances must be overridden. In this case, the output group
assigned to the relay would be set to NO on the Allow System Override setting. See Section 8.4.1 to edit group properties.
9.4.3 Event Priority
Each event type (see Table 9.3) has a priority level assigned to it. When more than one event type is active, the panel uses the Event Priority
Table to determine which event mapping to use to control output groups. The Event Priority Table can be modified using HFSS. It is strongly
recommended that before each installation a risk analysis is done by the stake holders (property owners, AHJ, occupants, etc...) to determine
which events take precedence over others.
