to extinguishing system equipment such as pilot cylinders, warning devices, etc.
If required, the outputs can be non-silencing. These outputs can be individually
disabled (sounder-1 / sounder-2).

From Software Version 2.02 :
A second ALERT pulse type (PULSE-1) is provided. The original ALERT pulse type is now renamed as PULSE-
2 and this is the default pulse pattern for the COUNTDOWN condition.
22
Do not use SNDR3 for these functions.
23
ON normally takes precedence over PULSE patterns. Exceptions: during the pre-discharge countdown or during a hold condition.
24
The mark to space ratio of the HOLD PULSE signal should be configured to create a different and unique pattern to the standard Alert
PULSE-1 or PULSE-2 patterns.
