SET ALARM VERIFICATION RETARD/RESET TIMER
- The selec-
tion of the Alarm Verification feature results in a delay of the system
alarm signal to the affected circuits. The total allowable delay is 60
seconds. This delay, the Alarm Verification time, is the sum of a built-
in 6 second system delay and the programmed Retard/Reset time.
The Retard/Reset time can be set between 15 and 50 seconds, with
15 seconds being the programmed default. (See the definition of
Zone Types below for a further definition of the Alarm Verification
Time cycle.)
1. To select the proper Retard/Reset time, begin with the Alarm
Verification time required by the system owner or local authority.
