Appendix C.4. Pseudo Points
It is beyond the scope of the driver manual to describe the full functionality of the Simplex Panels. The following
information is not maintained and updated and therefore should be used for reference only.
Pseudo points are points that report states or attributes based on how the Simplex system has been installed,
configured and programmed. They are often programmed to groups, devices, zones or other logic groupings, e.g.
a pseudo point may be programmed to report only if more than one sensor in a particular area is reporting smoke.
Every Simplex system has a number of default pseudo points programmed into the firmware supplied with the
panel. These default points depend only on the firmware revision number and are generally unaffected by the
configuration programmed for a particular site.
Although the 4100 card number can range from 0-250 in theory, only the following ranges are presently used in
the system:
Card address Card type
0-119
Physical (Hardware) cards
128-143
Digital Pseudo cards
144-159
Analog Pseudo cards
160-175

Appendix C.4.1.
Digital Pseudo’s:
There are 250 fixed pseudo's in the 4020 panel and 511 in the 4100 and 4100U. The numbering sequence is
simple, 128 starts the first block of 256 (0 to 255), so the first point is 128-0-0, the second is 128-1-0, ... The next
block starts at 129 and follows the same sequence, then 130 and so on up to 143. In the 4100 the first user
definable pseudo is P-256, in the 4100U it is P-512.
