DC Report Delay
: DC Report Delay is active when
Suppress DC Power Fault
is set to
No
. The report delay is
the time that must pass before the Model 3100S subscriber will send a primary power failure or primary
restoral message. This feature helps prevent mesh network congestion in an area where many subscribers
experience a power outage at the same time. Messages can be set to transmit in a staggered fashion using the
Random
time setting.
The combined DC fail detection time delay of 100 minutes plus the random
DC Report Delay
between 0
‒
60
minutes results in time that does not exceed 160 minutes.
Primary (24 V DC) power must be lost for 100 minutes to be reported as a failure.
Primary (24 V DC) power must be restored for at least 100 minutes to be reported as a restore. Once either is
detected, a message is created by the subscriber to send to the central station. A
DC Report Delay
is selected
based on this parameter and the setting of
Suppress DC Fault
reporting.
Available settings:
─
Random Delay
: A random time ranging from 0
‒
60 minutes after 100 minutes of primary (24 V DC)
power loss. Enter
R
into the box to select this option.
─
Fixed
delay
: A specific time ranging from 1
‒
60 minutes after 100 minutes of primary (24 V DC)
power loss.
─
No
Delay
: Immediate transmission after 100 minutes of Primary (24 V DC) power loss.
