Using the Configurator
139
New Alarm
This feature is for suite silence configurations. This is the
amount of time that the alarm plays on outputs correlated
with the
New Alarm Active
Common System Status.
After this amount of time, the alarm plays only on the
outputs correlated with the zone or input that started the
alarm.
For example, if you correlate the
New Alarm Active
Common System Status with all the suites in the building,
then a new alarm will play in all the suites for this amount
of time. After this time, the alarm with continue to play only
in the suite that started the alarm (as well as outputs
correlated with the
Common Alarm
Common System
Status).
In a two stage system, suite silence is canceled when the
stage two alarm starts.
As per UL 864 and UL 2572 the
New Alarm Active
Common System Status must not be correlated.
Choose from 10-120 seconds.
For more information, see section 19.53 on page 208.
Page Inhibit
This timer is started by the first active alarm. Paging is
inhibited while this timer is running. As per UL 864 and
UL 2572 only a setting of 0 is permissible.
Choose from 10-120 seconds.
Powerfail Send Delay
If the only trouble is an AC power failure, this is the
amount of time after the power failure that the system
delays transmission of status to the monitoring station.
The default is 3 hours. The maximum time is 18 hours.
See section 19.11 on page 155.
Proving Circuit Delay
This timer is used for fan dampers. If the monitor inputs do
not activate within the specified time (indicating that the
fan has not started running, or the damper has not moved
to its commanded position), then a trouble will be reported
and LEDs associated with the fan damper switch will
flash.
Choose from 5-90 seconds.
Auto Resound
This timer specifies the time, in minutes, after which the
signals will resound if an alarm remains un-
acknowledged. The default is 10 minutes. See section
19.53 on page 208.
Choose from 5-12 minutes.
Node Ctrl active timeout
This timer specifies the length of time, in minutes, that an
in control node may be inactive before the network
defaults back to the idle state.
Choose from 5-10 minutes.
Node Ctrl request timeout
This timer specifies the length of time, in seconds, that a
request for control remains active if it is not granted.
Choose from 30-60 seconds.
