6.2 Network Programming

This section of the manual describes how to program network options using the built-in annunciator. All options described in this section can
be programmed using the HFSS Honeywell Fire Software Suite. HFSS must be used to edit site assignments.
NOTE: Off-site Event Troubles
These troubles appear when an event in another site activates Output Groups due to intra-site mapping. The following list of events may occur.
• Off-site Fire/Supervisory Event
• Off-site Advisory Event
• Off-site ECS Event
After the Alarm/Event is reset/restored in the site that caused it, these events restore automatically when the Output Group is set to OFF. Off-site
events are logged in Event History.
6.2.1 Learn Network
The Learn Network Menu shows you all of the panels connected to the network. Any panel that has been programmed into the network will
appear as a "member." Any panel that is connected to the network but not programmed into the network will appear as a "guest." You can
add guest panels to the network by changing their status to member in this menu. Panels showing OK are currently responding on the net-
work. Panels not showing OK have either been removed or are not responding due to networking problems. See Section 6.1 for Network
Diagnostics.
1. Login to the panel. The panel will automatically access the Main Menu.
2. Select 6 for Network Programming.
3. Press 1 to enter the Learn Network menu.
4. Press ENTER to add or remove panels connected to the network as member or guest.
NOTE: If adding panels to network, the system will automatically run the Sync Network Options. You will be required to select which panel to
distribute network options from. See Section 6.4.
Incompatible Panel
If you try to add an incompatible panel as a member to the network, the Learn Network fails and an error message appears.
