4.1.20 Single Ring
Default : No
Selections :
– Yes - this setting produces one bell output per arming period. After one alarm, alarms on
non-fire points in the same area cannot restart the bell until the armed state changes.
– No - restart bell output with each alarm event.
This parameter determines if an alarm from a non-fire point can restart the alarm bell time
with each alarm event, or only initiate alarm output once per arming period.
Notice!
If an alarm occurs on a 24-hour point while the area is disarmed, arming that area with a
keyswitch does not clear the Single Ring flag.
Notice!
Silencing the bell resets Single Ring.
This parameter does not silence the keypad alarm bell tone or prevent any reports. Fire points
are not affected and bell time is restarted with each new alarm.

4.1.21 Bell Test
Default : No
Selections :
– Yes - initiate bell test.
– No - do not initiate bell test.
This parameter provides an alarm output from the output programmed at Alarm Bell, page 133
after the closing report has been confirmed or the exit delay time has expired.
When more than one area is armed at the same time (for example, ARM ALL AREAS? Function
is used), the bell sounds for two seconds with a two-second pause between each bell
activation if all areas have the same exit delay time programmed. Otherwise, the bell test
occurs as each area is armed and it complete its exit delay time. When areas are armed
simultaneously and report to the central station, the bell test occurs as each area is confirmed
by the central station receiver.
Bell Test After Closing Confirmation
In areas that report opening and closing activity, the bell test occurs after the control panel
sends the closing report and receives the acknowledgment from the central station receiver.
For proper operation of the bell test after closing confirmation, the following rules apply:
–
The control panel must report opening and closings to the central station.
– Restricted openings and closings, and opening and closing windows, should not be used.
Area Armed Confirmation
In areas that do not report opening and closing activity, the alarm bell output for this area is
activated for two seconds after exit time expires.
