Response with System-Wide Conditions
You can select whether an output group will respond to various system-wide occurrences. (See Figure 7-9 for
location of this field.)
7.4.2 Add Group
To add a group:
1. Enter the installer code. The panel will automatically go the main menu.
2. Select 7 for Program Menu.
3. Press 3 to enter group menu.
4. Press 2 to add a group.
The system will assign the next available group number. The group can now be edited if desired (see Section
7.4.1). A total of 250 output groups can be defined.

Table 7-3: Output Group Response Choices
Option Description
ManPull Manual Pull Activation. Select Yes if you want this group to activate for all manual pull alarms that
occur in the system.
Note: Even though manual pull switches are assigned to zones, activation selected here for
manual pull will override zone-programmed activation.
Fire Drill Fire Drill Activation. Select Yes if you want this group to activate for fire drills.
Sys Aux1 and Sys Aux2 Select Yes if you want this output group to activate for system-wide Aux1 and Aux2 alarms.
(Aux 1 and Aux 2 alarm types are for auxiliary alarm conditions. For example, you might want to
use Aux 1 to provide a unique alarm type.)
Ignore Global Cad Ignore Global Cadence. If you want to create an output group that can never be overridden, you
can select Yes for this option. Selecting No means that system-wide events that have been
assigned an output pattern could override the pattern for the output group.
For example, suppose you had assigned a set of strobes to Output Group 3. You would never
want these strobes to output in a pattern under any circumstances. To make sure this happens,
select Yes for Ignore Global Cadence for Output Group 3.
Reverse Polarity This option programs the output group for reverse polarity operation. Selecting Reverse Polarity–
Troubles will cause the output group to be de-energized for any system trouble. Selecting
Reverse Polarity–No Troubles will cause system troubles to be ignored. Activation is
accomplished through standard mapping methods. Use with the 7644-L8 assembly to implement
reverse polarity. See Section 4.14.3.2 for more information on the 7644-L8.
Voice EVAC Only This option programs the output group to be a voice output group. A voice group can only be
mapped to voice circuits. A non-voice group can only be mapped to non-voice circuits.
Allow Override This option programs the output group to allow it to be overridden by a higher priority system (e.g.
Emergency overriding Fire). Select No if you do not want the group to be overridden.
Voice Switch # This option links the output group with a voice select switch on a VCM, RVM, or switch expander
for dynamic activation. See Section 9.2.3.2 for more information.
Override Pattern # This setting sets the cadence of the non-voice group mapped to voice select switch when
activated using dynamic activation. See Section9.2.3.2 for more information.
