Choosing to use zone labels, address labels, or both.
The SMARTWIRE panel has been designed to be flexible in the use of which
labels are added. The table below gives a brief summary of the pros & cons of
each option.
Labels
Pros
Cons
None
Simplest set-up (No text
entry)
Panel just gives a numerical
indication of an event (e.g. zone 3,
ID 6)
Would need a “zone chart” to
identify location
Zone only
Max 8 labels to enter
Gives description of zone
where event occurred
Would still need a “Device chart” to
find exact location of event
Device only Has a 20 character
description for each device
Device description may not be
useful to people not familiar to
building (Eg fire fighters)
Zone &
Device
Extra zone label help avoid
squeezing “zone location”
into the device name. (eg
“1st FL.......”)
During an event, the zone
& device labels are
alternated on the screen.
More text entry – takes a bit longer
to set up.
