Exit Foyer (default) – Causes ward 1 always to use the ward 1 Exit time (page 57)
whenever the partition is set automatically by the Foyer Mode option (page 38).
Inst Set Foyer – Allows partition 1 to ignore the Exit Delay and set instantly when all
partitions specified by the Foyer Mode option have been set. This can occur only if the

Option 1-9-2: Choosing DD243 Configuration Options
1 – Confirmation On / Confirmation Off
Confirmation On (default) – Select this option if you want to use the DD243 rules.
Selecting the option enables the panel to generate "confirmed" alarms.
A confirmed alarm occurs in a ward when at least two separate zones trigger within the
Confirmation time (page 58), providing the ward is set and the Entry Delay timer (page
57) is not running. A confirmed alarm indicates that the alarm condition has a low
probability of being a false alarm. Generally, police will respond only to confirmed
alarms. Note that the second detector may be in a separate ward from the first
detector. The control panel reports the confirmed alarm for the ward containing the
second detector.
If you do not select Confirmation On, all alarms are unconfirmed and require only one
zone to trigger in the alarm state (e.g. a Normal Alm zone while the system is set).
Please refer to the descriptions below for further information about the effects of
Confirmation On.
Confirmation Off
– Selecting this option prevents confirmed alarms from being
generated and disables any output configured to follow a confirmed alarm.
2 – Sndrs on Unconf / Sndrs on Confirm
These options are relevant only if you have selected Confirmation On.
Sndrs on Unconf (default) – The control unit starts the internal sounders (including keypad
sounders) immediately after an unconfirmed alarm. This behaviour is also used if you
have selected Confirmation Off.
Sndrs on Confirm – The control unit activates the internal sounders after a confirmed
alarm and any programmed bell delay.
The sounders operate without a confirmed alarm if the Entry Delay timer (page
57) has been started and has expired.
3 – Bells on Unconf / Bells on Confirm
These options are relevant only if you have selected Confirmation On.
