The meaning of parameters list below:
Amount
Specify the number of backup amplifiers in system. the list content of combo box in amplifier
depends on this value. For example, if Amount = 3, then the list content should be none, 1, 2, 3.
Field [Device] of Grid
List devices within the same Ateis Net.
Field [Zone Board] of Grid
List zone boards of the device. zone board1 means zone1 to zone4, zone board2 means zone5
to zone8.
Field [Amplifier] of Grid
Specify the group no of zones. In the above figure, IDA8S1 zone board1(zone1~zone4 of
IDA8S1), IDA8S2 zone board1(zone1~4 of IDA8S2), IDA8S2 zone board2(zone 5~8 of IDA8S2)
are the same value, i.e. those zones are the same group and use the same amplifier for backup.
4.1.6 Monitoring/Fault
For the security purpose, IDA8 is designed to monitor the equipment, when a error detected, a fault will
be generated to inform user, then user can change the failure equipment quickly to make system
working fine again.
There are two type of faults:
System Fault
This kind of fault is about the internal error of IDA8C/S and most of case is hardware failure, it need
to change board inside device to repair.
Global Fault
A global fault is mostly speak about the fault of equipment outside IDA8C/S.
