Configure Relays, Horn & Strobe Submenu
There is a list of parameters for each relay in the system. The left and right cursor keys can be used to move
from one relay, horn or strobe to another. Doing so always goes to the first (summary) display. The up and
down keys will scroll through the parameters for the particular relay, horn or strobe.

Figure 3-29 Relay Summary
This display example shows that Relay 1 is configured to operate Normally Off, with a turn on delay and a
minimum on time.
Notice that the relay number, 1 in this example, is underlined. This indicates that the digit keys can be used to
jump to a particular relay, horn or strobe. The relays are numbers 1, 2 and 3; the horn is number 4 and the strobe
is 5.

Figure 3-30 Relay Mode
This display example shows that relay 1 is configured to operate in the Normally Off mode. The relay modes
are:
–
1
ALARM
–
2
Normally Off (default)
–
3
Normally On
Relay mode 1 is a special case. This mode is only available on relay 1 and dedicates the relay to function as an
alarm signal to a subsequent alarm or monitoring panel. This mode forces the relay to normally off mode with
no turn on delay or minimum on time. See section 3.1.4 for more detail regarding alarms
Fail Safe operation can be implemented by configuring a relay to operate Normally On, and wiring the circuit
using the NC (normally closed) contact. In this way, if the control panel looses power the relay will turn on the
controlled device if it still has power.

Figure 3-31 Turn On Delay
The default turn on delay is one minute and the maximum allowed value is fifteen minutes. The value is entered
in two groups, 2 digits for the minutes and then 2 digits for the seconds. A leading zero must be entered for each
group if applicable.
