Polling Loop Supervision
A short on the polling loop is indicated by a trouble on
zone 997 and reports as a trouble condition only. If
annunciation is desired, program the zone as type 05.
If a device on the polling loop fails (the panel cannot
"see" that device), the system displays a trouble
condition for all zones on that device. If the panel is
armed when a device fails, and the zone is a burglary
zone, the will go into alarm
A trouble on zone 97 prevents a partition from
being armed, unless all polling loop zones on
that partition are bypassed.
Using the 4297 Polling Loop Extender
The 4297 Polling Loop Extender may be used to provide
additional polling loop current, to extend the polling
loop wire run length, and/or to provide individual
electrically isolated polling loops. Refer to Figures 3-17
and 3-18, to follow.
Be sure to include the total current drawn on
the polling loop when figuring the total auxiliary
load on the panel’s power supply.
