Universal Switch Panel (USP) User Manual 9 OF 41
The “Source” column in the TALLY ASSIGNMENT TABLE is used to select Normal or
Alarm mode of tally operation, as well as the Alarm Group number (1-8) assigned to
the tally.
A switch configured for Alarm Tally may also be configured to control a local or
remote GPO.
Any GPO configured for Alarm mode will turn ON when any alarm is active and has
not been cleared by pressing the appropriate switch. The GPO will turn OFF only
when all alarms have been cleared. The GPO will not distinguish between alarm
groups. More than one GPO can be configured for Alarm mode of operation.
Alarm Tallies are not available on units containing the Extended Tally software.
VII. EVENT NOTIFICATION MODE
The Event Notification mode of operation allows local GPI and GPO events to be sent
to remote USP and GTP-32 units. Remote USPs can use the event notification to turn
on/off front panel tally indicators. Remote GTP-32s can use the event notification in
the Event Monitor Table and in Combinatorial Event Definitions.
