SFCD: Federal Commander Digital System - Federal Signal

Federal Commander Digital System
The individual list box contains a list of all sites in your system. Selected individual sites will be
sounded sequentially (one at a time). There is a time delay involved as SFCDWARE sends an
activation signal to each site (RTU) individually. If it is desired to activate a large number of
sirens without a time delay, it is recommended to use Zone or All Call.
Zone Group A
Zone Group B
Zone Group A and Zone Group B contain preconfigured zones. Zones are a grouping of sites
defined using the Zone Setup dialog. Zone activations are sent as a single transmission to all
sites within the zone.
All Call
To select all sites in your system click the Add All button. “All Sirens” will be displayed in the
destination list. All Call is sent as a single transmission to all sites in your system.
Destination
The destination list contains the currently selected sites and zones. To add sites highlight the
desired sites and zones to sound and click the Add button. Any number and combination of
individual sites and zones may be added. To select all sites in your system click the Add All
button. “All Sirens” will be added to the destination list and all other selections will be removed.
“All Sirens” must be removed before Individual Sites or Zones may be added. To remove sites
click the remove or Remove All button.
Function
The Function list box displays the function to be sounded. To change this selection, click on the
control and select the desired function from the dropdown list.
