Chapter 2: Front panel programming 
Vigilant VS1 and VS2 Technical Reference Manual  105 
Option Description 
device goes into alarm, the coded output is played a minimum of 
four times by the NAC circuit. The code comes from the active 
initiating device or zone. Note: The panel can only play one code at 
a time. For example, device 1 is coded as 1-2-3-4 and is associated 
with NAC1 and device 2 is coded as 5-6-7-8 and is associated with 
NAC2. If device 1 activates, NAC1 plays 1-2-3-4. If, while NAC1 is 
playing 1-2-3-4, device 2 activates, NAC2 will also play 1-2-3-4 until
the rounds are complete and then both NACs will play 5-6-7-8 until 
those rounds are complete. If you are programming NACs as 
coded, remember that only one code can play at a time. 
Basic: Four rounds of the four-digit coded output are played 
Continuous: Four rounds of the four-digit coded output are 
played and then continuous is played 
120 SPM: Four rounds of the four-digit coded output are played
and then 120 times per minute is played 
Temporal: Four rounds of the four-digit coded output are 
played and then a temporal pattern is played 
Continuous Non-Silenceable (Latched): For programming NAC as 
latched output 
City tie: Outputs an unsynchronized, 24-volt continuous (steady) 
signal that cannot be silenced. Select this NAC type when the NAC 
is connected to a city tie module. 
Label  Enter a text label
for the NAC (two lines of 20 characters). When you
have finished, choose Save. 
Correlation groups  Enter the number of the correlation group. Choose Yes or No. 
•  “Yes” adds the item to the group. 
•  “Excluded” removes the item from the group 
When you have finished, choose Save. 
Note: A correlation group is a collection of NACs and/or output 
devices (strobe) that responds to an input device (smoke detector). 
When you program the loop devices, you will have to 
correlate/assign the desired input device or zone to the correlation 
group that you want to activate. For more information on 
correlation groups, see “What is a correlation group?” on page 32. 
Event notification  Set the trouble, disable, and test event information by choosing one
and then setting the notification information. When you have 
finished, choose Save. “Factory default settings” on page 35 for 
NAC event notification default settings. 
Printer: Yes or No. This controls whether event information is sent to
the printer 
Coder: four-digit coded output that is played in response to alarm 
conditions (00-00-00-00 to 99-99-99-99)
