Positive Alarm Sequence 

The Velocity MMP is equipped with a positive alarm sequence that will program a delay to the NAC’s, Alarm relays and Auxiliaries for a 

period of between 

1-15 seconds

. If the alarm is acknowledged, it will silence the piezo sounder and start a timer which will prevent 

activation of these outputs for an additional time duration which can be user programmed between 

1-180 seconds

. After the 

programmed delay, if the source of the alarm is not cleared, all the outputs will activate. If the alarm is not acknowledged or reset 

during the first time delay of 15 seconds, all the appropriate outputs will be activated. If a second alarm occurs during either time 

delays, or if a manual alarm is activated, this will immediately cause the activation of the appropriate outputs. 

 

 

Positive Alarm Sequence Setup

 

Positive alarm sequence can be set up as follows: 

Go to the engineer menu, and select the Delays Icon 

 

The panel shows the Delays screen. 
 
See the ‘Alarm Sequen’ with Off & On options. 
 
Select ON to enable, or select OFF to keep the 
alarm sequence disabled. 

 

The ‘Ack. Time’ is the duration of the first time 
delay and can be configured between 1-15 seconds. 
 
To change the time, press either the + or – button 
to increase or decrease the zone number.  
 
You can also type in the number via the panel 
numerical keyboard, to do this press on the zone 
number field. Type in the required zone number 
and press the green tick to confirm. 

 

NOTE: 

Positive alarm sequence can only be used for alarm signals from automatic detection devices.
