Picture Perfect 4.6
User Manual
Overview
The Picture Perfect software monitors input devices connected to one or more micro controllers and
when an alarm condition is detected, outputs, such as horns, lights, or door strikes, are activated.
Each of the inputs and outputs as well as the micro controllers must be defined in the system. To
accomplish these tasks, the following forms need to be completed:
• Output Groups
• Input Groups
• Micros
• Keys
• Outputs
• Inputs
• Time Zones
Creating output groups
Before you define individual outputs, you must create output groups to which individual outputs can
be assigned. When an output group triggers, all outputs assigned to the group activate. (An input
group triggers one or more output groups.) Link selected outputs together by assigning the same
output group to each output using the Outputs form.
Example
The sprinkler system in Building 1 is assigned to the output group, 01-1-00 Fire Output Device. The
first part of the description indicates the wiring address to which the system is connected.
01 (Micro1) - 1 (Reader board 1) -00 (the address on the board)
The second part of the description tells the function of the output group, Fire Output Device.
