4-6 Sounder Delay Set-up
Allows the sounder delay to be set-up:
The sounder delay can be set to GLOBAL MODE, ZONAL MODE or DISABLED.
The sounder delay period is defined (to a maximum of 10 minutes).
The devices that initiate a delayed sounder activation are specified.
If the function is set to ZONAL MODE it is also necessary to set up the activation using Function 3-5 Zone
Sounder Delay Set-up.
The options for initiation are:
CALL POINTS ONLY - call-points start the delay timer. The sounder groups associated with the activated
call-point will be queued for delayed activation. Other devices will not start the delay timer and will
activate their sounder groups immediately.
DETECTORS ONLY - detectors start the delay timer. The sounder groups associated with the activated
detector will be queued for delayed activation. Call points will not start the delay timer and will activate
their sounder groups immediately.
ANY DEVICE - any device will start the delay timer. The sounder groups associated with the activated
device will be queued for delayed activation.
For sounder delays to operate the front panel ACTIVE DELAYS LED has to be lit.
There is only one sounder delay timer so when this expires any further sounder activations will be
immediate.
If SOUNDERS ACTIVATE/SILENCE is pressed when there are sounders queued for delayed activation the
queued sounders are also silenced (stopped from sounding). Once the first alarm has been silenced by
pressing SOUNDERS ACTIVATE/SILENCE all subsequent fires will be reported immediately (the sounder
delay settings will be ignored).
4-7 Override Sounder Delays
Allows specific sounders to activate immediately even if the system has been set with sounder delays active.
0 indicates normal operation
X indicates that the specific sounder will operate immediately
Sounders set to immediate will also override any Sounder Group settings for that specific sounder.
Sounders set to immediate operation will sound continuously (pulsing settings will be overridden).
