Object Notation<br />

When selecting an address for a module or an object (Zone, Trouble Zone or PGM) on a module the address is<br />

entered using the Module Type, Module Address and optionally the number of the object. This is referred to as<br />

the <strong>Protege</strong> Object Notation.<br />

This notation allows fast and efficient access to any programmable or controllable object within the <strong>Protege</strong><br />

<strong>System</strong>.<br />

Notation Structure<br />

<strong>Protege</strong> Object Notation always begins with the module type or system type defined by 2 letters and then<br />

followed by an address (3 digits). This is a requirement and is called the Unique Address. It is optionally followed<br />

by a 2 digit number that selects the object within the unique address such as a Zone or PGM and is separated<br />

by a colon.<br />

ZX003:08<br />

The above example refers to ZX (Zone Expansion Module) device address 003 and object 08. This could be<br />

PGM (programmable output) 8, Zone 8, or Trouble Zone 8 depending on the location that has been selected<br />

from keypad menu.<br />

SC001<br />

The example refers to SC (schedule) record address 001.<br />

Module Object Type<br />

The following list shows the module types. All module types have a two letter definition that is used to identify<br />

them in the system.<br />

Reader Expander<br />

Analog Expander (Input or Output)<br />

There are a number of products that utilize the same module object type. For example the PRT-RDM2 Mini<br />

Reader Expander still uses the module type RD as does the PRT-RDI2 and PRT-RDE2 however the hardware<br />

functionality is different when installed and the registered module type is displayed by pressing the [ARM] key at<br />

the expander selection screen.<br />

<strong>System</strong> Object Type<br />

All programmable system objects and functions have a two letter type definition associated with them. For<br />

example to program a user the user will always be prefixed with the two letter UN system object type identifier.<br />
