Quick question to our fire alarm experts.
When you disable devices in a fire alarm system, is it required to take it off the program?

Thank you.
 
I dont fully understand your question but if you electronically disable a programmed device through the keypad the FACP will start the trouble alert tone to remind you that you still have a disabled device.To stop the trouble tone you'd have to unassign that address. but my memory might... . then you might get different trouble.
 
You actually answered my question.
We are under the process of demolition and devices in the demo areas need to be disabled. I kinda knew from the back of my head that troubles will occur.
I guess not until you update the program to delete the truobles will be showing up in the panel.
The circuits will be cut at the demo boundary, we should put a EOL resistor to avoid truobles too, right?

Thanks.
