Failed To Sound<br />

<strong>System</strong> Fail<br />

<strong>Federal</strong> <strong>Commander</strong> <strong>Digital</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />

Note: FOB, Rear Input and Alert Button status points may be renamed (Reference Intercom<br />

Configuration-Input Options).<br />

For data items marked Latched, once detected will remain latched (pass state) in the RTU's<br />

memory until a Master Reset, Quiet Test or Activation command is sent. This will allow the units<br />

to be polled at a later time following an activation to obtain activation status. It is very important<br />

for the operator to understand that all status data conditions are current as of the last poll and<br />

may not represent the present status conditions.<br />

Failed To Sound<br />

The “Failed to Sound” status point fails when one of the following conditions occurs:<br />

1. Last Function Base and Last Function RTU do not agree<br />

2. Last Function Base and Last Function RTU times disagree by more than 90 minutes<br />

3. Audio Fail<br />

“Failed to Sound” reporting may be enabled or disabled by the setting of the “Failed to Sound”<br />

field on the <strong>System</strong> Setup screen. If enabled a Failed to Sound fault may occur when the site is<br />

activated locally or non-digital activation (duotone, DTMF, etc). Failed to Sound may also occur if<br />

unit is activated by a remote digital station and <strong>Commander</strong> is unable to eavesdrop the remote<br />

station.<br />

<strong>System</strong> Fail<br />

The “<strong>System</strong> Fail” status point fails when the conditions defined on the <strong>System</strong> Fail setup dialog<br />

Alarm Filter is met for this siren site. Note: An individual site <strong>System</strong> Fail alarm does not imply a<br />

general <strong>System</strong> Fail alarm. A general <strong>System</strong> Fail alarm may require multiple site failures as<br />

defined on the <strong>System</strong> Fail setup dialog.<br />

Alarm (Automatic) Reporting<br />

Indicates if RTU auto reporting is enabled or disabled. If enabled, auto reporting occurs when<br />

any of the above status conditions changes state. If disabled, status is sent only when polled.<br />

Power Fail Reporting<br />

Indicates if RTU power fail reporting is enabled or disabled. If enabled, power fail reporting<br />

occurs when AC Power changes state. If disabled, status is sent only when polled.<br />

Function And Cancel Counters<br />

Contains the number of activation and cancel codes received by this RTU. These fields are<br />

cleared (set to zero) by the Clear Counters command from the send menu of Configure RTU<br />

Parameters.<br />

Activate Site<br />

These eight push buttons send an activation command to the selected RTU.<br />

Function Running<br />

Displays the function running at the time of the last poll. If no function is running, STANDBY is<br />

162<br />
