Programming relay and sounder detector bases
Relay and sounder bases require some configuration not required by other devices.
First, the panel does not automatically distinguish between relay and sounder bases
— Both are set by default to base type “relay”. You must manually change this setting
for sounder bases.
In addition, configuration is required to control how these devices are activated.
Relay bases can be activated by:
• The detector to which they are attached
• One or more correlation groups
Sounder bases can be activated by:
• The detector to which they are attached
• One or more correlation groups
• The 24 volt riser
You can configure these options using the procedure given below. See Table 23 on
page 87 for information on the Base and Follow options.
To change the relay/sounder base type and follow option:
1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.
2. Choose Advanced Program and enter the level 2
password.
3. Choose Loop Configuration and select the loop
number. (This option is displayed only if the panel has
two loops.)
4. Choose Devices and enter the number of the device
to be programmed. The serial number of the device is
displayed.
5. Press the Enter button.
6. Choose Base Type and select either Relay or Sounder.
7. Choose Follow and select one of the types listed in
Table 23 on page 87.
8. Choose Save.
9. Press the Menu button to exit menu mode, or
continue programming.
