PGMs are used to send electrical current to external devices such as lights and sirens, usually when
an alarm event occurs. The alarm controller provides up to three 50mA PGMs and one 300mA PGM.
PGM outputs can be expanded using the optional 8-output expander (HSM2208) and the 4 high-
current output expander (HSM2204).
Programming an output is a four-step process:
1. Program the PGM
2. Assign the PGM to a partition.
3. Assign an output attribute.
4. Assign an output option.

for PGM slot alignment.
[007] PGM Programming
This is the base menu used by the installer to assign PGMs to the main bell and a partition.
[000] Main Bell Partition Assignment
This programming section is used to define which partitions activate the main bell when they go
into alarm. All partitions are selected by default.
[001]-[164] PGM Partition Assignment
This option enables the installer to assign each PGM output to a partition. To assign a PGM to a
partition, first select the PGM output (PGM 001-164), then select the partition (1-8).
Note:
This field is only supported by PGM types that have multiple partition capabilities (e.g.,
command outputs, away arming). It does not affect system outputs (e.g., ground start pulse).
[008] PGM Timer Programming
[000] PGM Minutes/Seconds
This option determines if the timer is in minutes or seconds.
[001]-[164] PGM Timer
This timer programs the duration (in seconds or minutes) that PGMs 1-164 activate if programmed
to follow the PGM Timer.
Select option 001-164 for PGM 1-164.
This option does not affect outputs programmed as Sensor Reset.
[009] PGM Types
The output types described in this section can be assigned to alarm controller and output expander
module PGMs. Each alarm controller supports up to 2 or 4 PGMs and can be expanded using
HSM2208 output expander and HSM2204 High-Current output modulemodules. PGM attributes are
defined in section
[001]-[164] Select PGM
100 - Null PGM
This option deactivates the PGM output
101 - Burglary and Fire Bell Follower
This PGM output follows:
• Fire pre-alerts
