I am using switches to disable outputs for testing. Is there a way to disable the sounder base outputs without disabling the smoke detector associated with it? Also, is it possible to write a rule that will disable multiple outputs, but only one trouble message is displayed (pseudo point??)? Currently when I disable the system for testing, I get over 200 hundred seperate troubles on the panel.

then put your outputs in a group....

Below is what I was able to come up with. I have not tested it yet. Please look over and see if you think this will work correctly.


[SOUNDER BASE LOGICAL OUTPUT]

RLYCFG 'SOUNDER_BASES' :ON 'ALOFT_RM_SMK*';


[ALOFT SPEAKER LOGICAL OUTPUT]

RLYCFG 'ALOFT_SPEAKERS_STROBES' :ON 'ALOFT_AUDIBLE*',
AMPON 'ALOFT_AMP*'TO 'Ch_Evac_01_08',
MSGON 'Default_Evac_01_08' TO 'CH_EVAC_01_08';

ALARM 'ALOFT_SMK*' : ON 'SOUNDER_BASES',

[AUDIBLE BASE SILENCE]

AS : GROUPOFF 'SOUNDER_BASES',
GROUPOFF 'ALOFT_SPEAKERS_STROBES';


[ALOFT AUDIO/VISUAL DISABLE]

SW 'SW13*' : ON 'LED37*',
DISABLE 'ALOFT_SPEAKERS_STROBES',
DISABLE 'SOUNDER_BASES'

are these 'ALOFT_SPEAKERS_STROBES' & 'SOUNDER_BASES' belongs to a group?

I created a logical output for each, referenced those in my general alarm and disable rules

Ok....yes it will work

Another way to stop this from Happening is by using Priorities.
SW 'SW13*' : ON 'LED37*',
OFF -HIGH 'ALOFT_SPEAKERS_STROBES',
OFF -HIGH 'SOUNDER_BASES'

-- Normally, When outputs are activated in the Est program, its done by -Low Priority

get an io module. (or two spare idc8/4 zones or a cr and ct1). use a switch to turn on the output which is wired to short the input (as a monitor point), then have the monitor point response disable your devices. No troubles will be shown.

Have used this setup on some est-2's with success. Just wondering if there was a way to do it without extra equipment. I have written rules using priorities, but have not tested it yet

I tried using the priorities as suggested, but my outputs are still activating. Is it the order I have the rules in? Please see below.
