Zone Function Settings
There are 7 functional settings available for each zone. These are as follows:
Fire latching
Normally a zone latches a fire input signal. This setting allows the panel to clear automatically when a fire signal
is removed. This is useful for interfacing purposes.
Short circuit as alarm (EN54!)
For Older non EN54 or BS5839 compliant systems. This allows a short circuit to activate a fire rather than
a fault condition.
Intrinsically safe operation
This option changes the zone alarm and short circuit thresholds to allow for an MTL 5061 type intrinsically safe
barrier to be used in the circuit.
Note: Twin Wire mode is not compatible with intrinsically safe operation.
Silent mode
This setting provides a visual & audible alarm at the panel with no sounder operation.
Priority alarm (EN54!)
Normally a 220R call point will override delays or dependency alarms. This option allows turning off the priority
alarm feature.
Detector removal (EN54!)
The detector removal monitoring can be turned off. For use with older non compliant detectors.
Detector removal type
Schottky diode or Zener diode type detector bases for conventional zones (Does not apply to Twin wire circuits).
The default operation is for shottky diode bases but can be changed for use with older Hochiki liveline bases or
similar.
