See Figure 5. The exit-delay time (potentiometer “C”) can be adjusted from 50 seconds to 15 minutes. To
determine the exit delay time, first remove the RED probe wire from terminal No. 17. This will put the CF-2C
into PROBE FAULT mode (see page 6). When the exit delay timer times out the annunciator relay will
constantly cycle on and off.
To activate the exit delay timer on an installed FC-9 annunciator, press the exit delay button on the
annunciator plate. If other devices are being used to activate the exit delay timer (such as an alarm panel,
etc.), take a wire and short the terminals between No. 9 and No. 15 at the CF-2C control panel. Doing this for
2 seconds will trigger the timer. When the timer is activated, the annunciator relay will stop cycling.
Measure the time from when the relay stops and when the relay begins cycling again and you will know the
exit delay time. For longer exit delay time, adjust the potentiometer marked “C” clockwise and repeat until the
desired time is achieved. Re-attach the RED probe wire to terminal No. 17 when finished.

See Figure 5. This function controls the amount of time the customer desires the noisemaker to stay on. It
may be adjusted to stay on anywhere from 1/2 to 30 seconds. To adjust, use the potentiometer marked "F".
Turning it clockwise increases the time. Push the trip-test switch to hear your adjustment. Adjust until the
desired time is achieved.

See Figure 5. The re-trigger hold-off keeps the system from re-triggering (and thus annunciating) should
multiple cars pass the probe in a caravan. Once the system is tripped, it will time-out but not be able to re-
trigger for an adjustable time period up to 2½ minutes. To adjust this time period, disconnect the RED probe
wire from terminal No. 17 (this puts the control unit in PROBE FAULT mode, see page 5).
The annunciator relay will constantly cycle on and off. To increase the re-trigger hold-off, adjust
potentiometer marked "E". Turn it clockwise for a longer hold-off period of time. Repeat until the desired hold-
off time is achieved. Re-attach the RED probe wire.

See Figure 5. This function can be used to delay activation of the floodlight timer after the CF-2C is tripped.
Adjustment time is from 1 second up to 2½ minutes. For long driveways, or if the exact location of the probe
is to be concealed for security reasons, use this feature. The annunciator, however, is not delayed.
To set the desired floodlight entry delay timer, first remove the photocell lead from terminal No. 7 (see
Figure 2 on page 4) on the CF-2C control unit. Push the TRIP TEST button and measure from the moment
the annunciator relay clicks on (a relatively quick click) and the moment the floodlight relay activates (a
