10.9 Transmission Delay
When transmission delays are programmed, the panel will
delay reporting the related event for the number of seconds
programmed for the programmed time. The various trans-
mission delays are listed below.
If the Tx Delay in Min
Tx Delay in MinTx Delay in Min
Tx Delay in Min communicator toggle option is
enabled, the transmission delay counters will be pro-
grammed in minutes instead of seconds (Ref #: [000401],

transmission delay of less than 5 minutes. This feature must
not be enabled on UL listed systems
AC Fail Delay
Ref #: [00020310]
The panel will delay the trouble indication on keypads and
remote annunciators for the programmed time (000 to 255
min.). This delay is to avoid the annunciation of short-term
AC failures. Some jurisdictions may not allow any delay for
Fire installations. In this case, the timer should be left at its
default setting (000 = disabled).
AC Fail Tx Delay
Ref #: [00040202]
This panel will delay the transmission of an AC trouble
reporting code for the programmed time. Enter the time in
hours and minutes, from 0000 to 2359 (HHMM). The

Zone Tx Delay
Ref #: [00040203]
The panel will delay the transmission of a zone alarm
reporting code for the programmed number of seconds.
Valid entries are from 000 to 255 seconds. The default set-
ting is 000. If the alarm is silenced within the programmed
time, no alarm communication will be sent. The Transmis-
sion Delay zone toggle option must be enabled for each
zone in order for this delay to occur. See 5.4 ‘Zone Program-
ming‘.
Busy Tone Delay
Ref #: [00040205]

wait for the programmed number of seconds before dialing
again. Valid entries are from 000 to 255 seconds. The default
setting is 060.
Dial Attempts #1
Ref #: [00040207]
This is the number of dialing attempts the panel will make
for telephone number 1 when attempting to send a signal to
the central station. If the panel is unsuccessful after the
number of programmed attempts, a Failure to Communi-
cate (FTC) trouble will be generated. Valid entries are from
001 to 255 attempts. The default setting is 010 attempts.
NOTE: For UL listed systems, this shall be set to between
005 and 010.
Dial Attempts #2
Ref #: [00040208]
This is the number of dialing attempts for telephone num-
ber 2. See ’Dial Attempts #1’ for details.
Dial Attempts #3

This is the number of dialing attempts for telephone num-
ber 3. See ’Dial Attempts #1’ for details.
Dial Attempt Delay
Ref #: [0004021100]
After a failed attempt to call the central station, this is the
amount of time the panel will wait before making the next
dialing attempt. Valid entries are from 001 to 255 seconds.
The default setting is 006 seconds.
4164 Low Bat Dly
Ref #: [00040210]

This delay is to prevent false alarms due to surges in the
sprinkler system. The Maximum delay allowed is 90 sec-
onds. The default is 000 seconds (disabled). The Waterflow
Delay must be 90 seconds or less. This delay affects all
zones programmed as Waterflow, zone type (10). See 5.4
‘Zone Programming‘.
