Choosing the abort mode
Table 1-7 provides descriptions for the XLS-REL abort modes.
Note:
Abort modes 3 and 4 do not comply with UL or ULC.
Setting the DIP switches
Warning!
Press the Reset switch at the fire alarm control panel
whenever you change the DIP switch settings. Otherwise, the
new settings will not take effect.
Figure 1-5 shows the default DIP switch settings of the
XLS-REL. Tables 1-8 through 1-11 provide the DIP switch
settings for the XLS-REL abort modes and delay time settings.
Table 1-7: Abort mode descriptions
Mode
Description
1 (Factory default)
If the abort is initiated before the automatic delay timer expires, it
will prevent the releasing action. The automatic delay timer will
continue to run while the abort is active. When the abort is
restored, the release will occur with the expiration of the
automatic delay timer or the abort delay timer, whichever occurs
last.
2
If the abort is initiated before the automatic delay timer expires, it
will prevent the releasing action. The automatic delay timer will
stop running. When the abort is restored, the automatic delay
timer will resume and the release will occur with the expiration of
the timer.
3 (Industrial Risk Insurers)
To be recognized as valid, the abort must be active when the
second alarm is received. When the abort is restored, the
release will occur with the expiration of the abort delay timer (set
for 10 sec). If the valid abort is held for more than 10 seconds,
the automatic delay timer is inactive. If the valid abort is held for
less than 10 seconds, the automatic delay timer operates as
programmed.
4 (International)
If the abort is initiated before the automatic delay timer expires, it
will prevent the releasing action. The automatic delay timer will
stop running. When the abort is restored, the automatic delay
timer will reset and commence time from t = 0. The release will
occur with the expiration of the timer setting minus 10 seconds.
