Fire sounder re-sound
Use this menu to configure the sounder re-sound, on or off. This determines
sounder operation in a fire alarm event when sounders have been silenced by
pressing the Fire Sounder Start/Stop button and a new alarm event is reported in
a different zone. The default setting is On.
To configure the sounder re-sound:
1. Set the display as shown below, and then press Enter.
The Sounders Start/Stop LED flashes fast to indicate that the sounder re-
sound configuration menu is active.
2. Select a value using the value selection buttons (2 and 4).
3. Press Enter.
4. Save your change
The available settings for this feature are shown below.
Display Description
The sounders re-sound if a new fire alarm event is
reported from a different zone.
The sounders do not re-sound if a new fire alarm event
is reported from a different zone.
Fire sounders silence disabled time
Note: For control panels in basic evacuation mode, any configured fire sounders
silence disable times are ignored.
To prevent the immediate silencing of fire sounders when a fire alarm is first
reported, the Fire Sounder Start/Stop button may be temporarily disabled for a
preconfigured period of time when a configured fire sounder delay is counting
down.
The disable time starts to count down when the control panel enters fire alarm
status and the configured fire sounder delay starts.
During the configured disable time the Fire Sounder Start/Stop LED is off and the
fire sounders cannot be silenced (before activation) by pressing the Fire Sounder
Start/Stop button.
In the time between the end of the configured disable time and the end of the
configured fire sounder delay (when the Fire Sounder Start/Stop LED is flashing),
pressing the Fire Sounder Start/Stop button silences sounders (before
activation).
