This option is available when
System Options
– Confirmation Mode
is set to Basic (page
86).
Use this option to specify the number of times that the system will re-arm when the siren
time expires.
Select NEVER to make the system never re-arm (the system will go into alarm once only).
Select one of the other options to make the system re-arm once, twice, three, four or five
times, or always. The system re-arms all closed zones, but not detectors that are still
sending alarm signals. (Note that this setting is required in order to comply with EN50131
.
)
If the system has rearmed, then when a user enters the system through the Final Exit
door, the control unit will give an audible internal alarm in place of the normal entry tone.
Panel Loudspeaker
Volume
Use this option to change the volume of notification tones from a loudspeaker connected
to the control unit. This volume control does NOT change the volume of alarm tones.
Partitions
In a partitioned system, you can assign the panel loudspeaker to any of the partitions. Any
loudspeaker can belong to one or more partitions.
Entry Alarm Delay
Use this option to determine what the system will do if a user strays from an Entry Route
zone during entry. (This option is available to provide compliance with EN 50131-1.)
Disabled
Makes the system give an alarm immediately a user triggers a zone other than the
entry route zone during entry.
Note:
This is not compliant with EN50131.
Enabled
If the user triggers a zone other than the entry route zone during entry, the system
waits 30 seconds before raising a full alarm. The system also gives an internal alarm
during the 30-second wait.
If the user enters an access code or presents a tag before the end of the 30-second
period, the user can reset the system.
Abort Time
Use this option to change Alarm Abort Delay period. The timer can take any value in the
range 0 to 120 seconds.
The control unit starts the Alarm Abort Delay timer whenever it starts an alarm. If a user
silences an alarm within the Abort Delay period, the alarm will not require an installer or
remote reset.
If an alarm occurs and a user unsets the system
within
the Alarm Abort Delay period, the
control unit activates any output of type Alarm Abort (page 63) and starts any Alarm Abort
Fast Format communications programmed.
