1. A configuration method for a fire alarm controller, the method comprising:

  • presenting a configuration matrix in which either the rows represent inputs and the columns represent outputs, or the rows represent outputs and the columns represent inputs,wherein a matrix element in the configuration matrix comprises binary data that indicates whether a causal relationship exists between the input and output in the row and column in which the matrix element is located,wherein the input comprises a signal received or sensed by the fire alarm controller, and the output comprises at least one enable signal capable of activating a linked apparatus connected directly or indirectly to the fire alarm controller in response to at least one of the inputs;

    receiving at least one external input configured to amend the value of a matrix element in the configuration matrix; and

    based on the amended configuration matrix, generating a configuration file for updating linkage control logic of the fire alarm controller.
