Appendix B: Using the Configurator
•
Signal Silence Inhibit (secs) - This timer already existed prior to the introduction of Suite
Silence and specifies how long the signals must sound before they can be silenced by
any means.
Common System Statuses
Two Common System Statuses were added to support Suite Silence.
•
New Alarm Active - This status is set to true when a new alarm occurs and remains true
while the New Alarm timer is running.
•
Auto Suite Resound - This status becomes true when the Auto Resound timer expires.
The "Subsequent Alarm" common system status, which was used before Suite Silence was
officially supported, should not be correlated to suite signals.
Configuration
•
Set the job to be Two Stage.
•
Set the alert rate to "Alert" and the Evacuation rate to "Temporal". Do this on the Job
Details form in the signal rates section and if the job has audio, within the Audio Setup
dialog.
•
Set the New Alarm timer to 60 seconds. Do this on the Job Details form.
•
Set the Auto Resound timer to 9 minutes. Do this on the Job Details form.
•
Set the Signal Silence Inhibit timer to 60 seconds. Do this on the Job Details form. You
may have to adjust the Auto Signal Silence timer since the two are related.
•
Add the detectors that are located in each suite. Create an alarm zone for each suite
and place the corresponding detectors in each zone.
•
Add signal circuits for each suite.
•
Correlate each suite alarm zone to the corresponding suite's signal circuits.
•
Add signal circuits for areas not within the suites. E.g. Hallways.
•
Correlate Common Alarm to the Hallways' signal circuits.
•
Correlate the "New Alarm Active" common system status to all suite signal circuits.
•
Correlate the "Auto Suite Resound" common system status to all suite signal circuits.
