How to Program an Instant Release Circuit
The following contains information needed to program an Instant Release circuit for an SLC output
module
.
Description
An SLC output circuit module programmed to activate non-releasing devices, such
as door openers or warning sounders, without counting down delay timers. A device programmed
with the
INST
RELEASE
Type Code device is supervised for open circuits and ground faults.
Program
Select an SLC output module to use with a releasing circuit. While programming the
point (refer to the Point Programming section of this manual for instructions),
1. Select the
INST
RELEASE
Type Code,
2. Enter the number of the desired Releasing Zone into the module’s zone map. The releasing
zone must be fully programmed (refer to Section 3.4.4, “Releasing Zone”, on page 57).
Example
A programming example of a control module programmed as an Instant Release circuit
for Releasing Zone ZR05.

How to Program a Release Code Bell Circuit
When coded output is desired to indicate different phases of a releasing operation, the panel can be
programmed using Control-By-Event (CBE) to turn on outputs set to provide the chosen codes.
Example Description
In the following example, programming is shown that will
1. Turn on an output when the first alarm activates in a releasing zone, but Cross Zone conditions
are not met. Turn it off when the Delay Timer starts.
2. Turn on a different output when Cross Zone conditions are met and the Delay Timer activates,
and turn it off when releasing starts.
3. Turn on a different output when releasing starts, and turn it off when the soak timer expires or
the system is reset.
NOTE:
An output with an
INST
RELEASE
Type Code requires the following selections: a zone
selection (a releasing zone may be used, but is not required); an output circuit mapped to the
same zone; Switch Inhibit; Non-Silenceable; No Walk Test.
