Follow the directions until the process is complete. When you exit the screen calibration, the
system will go through a 10 second countdown and then display the home screen again.
4.4 Silencing the Internal Audible Alarm, Terminal Connected and/or
Remote Horns and Strobes
The FCS comes with a door mounted, audible alarm. This alarm and any remote strobe/horn
devices connected to the Remote Strobe/Horn Terminal and/or the relays (if configured to
do so) will sound when the high alarm is reached. Upon sounding, the Silence? screen will
appear, giving you the ability to silence all the alarms for a predetermined amount of time.
You will also be able to see how many alarms have been previously silenced and how many
are currently sounding.
You can silence all or none of the alarms. When the Silence is pushed, all channels that are
causing the audible alarm will be silenced. If another channel starts to indicate high alarm,
the system works through the configuration and the audible alarm will come back on for that
channel. Pressing Silence will stop the alarm from sounding and restart the silence interval
for the previous channel(s) causing the alarm.
The alarms will stop for a preconfigured amount of time (the factory default is 5 minutes).
Refer to Section 8.2 Using Relay Timers to Set ON / OFF Delays to change the silence interval
(OFF Delay) for each device (Strobe, Horn, Audible).
When the Silence button is pressed, the associated horn/strobe/audible/buzzer detailed relay
information will show a yellow bar:
