Output group activation
Output groups can be activated by any of the following:
• Zone activation with delays
• Output group confirmation for specific outputs (EN 54-2 type C)
• Logic rules (configured via the Configuration Utility PC application)
• Manual activation by programmable start/stop buttons (evacuation panels
only)
To avoid unexpected alarm behaviour, consider the activation options when
configuring your fire system. If zone activation is not programmed correctly then
a zone in alarm could override any required confirmation configuration of an
output group.
Delayed output group activation with alarm confirmation
Note: This option is compliant with EN 54 type C alarm confirmation.
Activation of control panel output groups can be delayed based on alarm
confirmation configuration (this may be used, for example, with outputs for
extinguishing devices). The maximum configurable delay is 999 seconds.
The output group alarm confirmation configuration options are shown in the table
below.
Note: Configuration requires that two independent alarm confirmations be
selected from the available options and that a confirmation delay (in seconds) is
entered for the corresponding output group to be activated.

If only a single alarm event with confirmation delay is required (for example
for a manual call point zone), select the
corresponding first alarm event, and
then select this option for the second alarm
