When an alarm occurs
the common alarm relay

state when any alarm occurs on the unit.
Each pair of channels can be set to operate the common alarm relay if
required using switches mounted on the Alarm Card
Channel 1 & 2
SW4 Position 1 ON = Enable common alarm signal
SW4 Position 1 OFF = Disable Common alarm signal
Channel 3 & 4
SW6 Position 1 ON = Enable common alarm signal
SW6 Position 1 OFF = Disable Common alarm signal
The Common alarm relay can also be set to follow the signal input or
follow the alarm logic.
Please refer to Section 10 Para 10.4 for full details
The common alarm relay
activates when I get one
alarm but if another alarm
occurs the relay remains
in the alarm state
All UC625 units are equipped with switches that allow the user to select if
the common alarm relay should reflash every time a new alarm occurs
causing the contacts to drop out and re-activate typically within 500mS.
Switches are provided on the Alarm Card to control this feature
Channel 1 & 2
SW4 Position 5 ON = Enable Reflash
SW4 Position 5 OFF = Disable Reflash
Channel 3 & 4
SW6 Position 5 ON = Enable Reflash
SW6 Position 5 OFF = Disable Reflash
