01 = Bell Time
The duration of the Bells output activation is programmable within the range 0–30 minutes; the default is 20.
Assigning a value of 00 minutes sets the Bell Time to infinity.
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
The Entry/Exit Horn is subject to the Bell Time parameter in both the set and unset conditions.
02 = Bell Delay
The delayed activation of the bell is programmable within the range 0–20 minutes; the default is 0. The Bell
Delay is overridden by a telecom failure (either a Comms Fail on the Galaxy Telecom Module or by the
activation of a Line Fail zone used to monitor a digicom); an alarm condition in either of these conditions
results in instant bells activation.
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
03 = Abort Time
The abort time is programmable within the range 0-300 seconds. The Abort Time delays the activation of
Intruder outputs during the unsetting of the system.
The abort time is initiated:
• whenever a zone that is not on the entry route (Final, Entry and Exit zones) is activated — a
user strays from the entry route;
• a valid code is not entered before the entry time expires.
There are two modes of operation for the abort:
1. Standard abort (required in the UK for DD243 compliance).
2. Star º abort.
Standard Abort Operation
If the programmed Abort Time is allowed to expire, the Intruder outputs remain active (latched on) until a
code authorised to reset the system is entered (refer to parameter 06 = System Reset).
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
The operation of the Abort feature is described as follows and indicates under what conditions the Abort
output will be activated.
Note: to comply with the NACOSS standards NACP 10, the Star Abort operation must not be
programmed. To comply with DD243:2002, the abort time must be programmed for 001 secs.
For entry route deviation, the signalling of an intruder alarm is delayed.
If a valid code is entered before the entry time expires:
(1) The intruder is not signaled.
(2) The system does not require a system reset.
If a valid code is not entered before the entry time expires or an entry timeout condition occurs:
(1) The intruder is signaled at the end of the entry time.
(2) The Abort timer starts on expiry of the entry time.
If a valid code is entered within the programmed abort time:
(1) If an abort output/channel is allocated to the alarmed group:
a) The Abort signal is sent.
b) The intruder condition is not restored.
c) Intruder restore is not signalled.
