Appendix H: Intelligent Sounder Base Programming
and Operation
The NFS2-640 is compatible with the B200 Intelligent Sounder Base. This sounder base allows for
multiple tone generation that is user programmable via VeriFire Tools.
Programming the Intelligent Sounder Base into the Control Panel:
Once the sounder base has been installed and a detector has been plugged into the sounder base,
you can do one of the following to program the sounder base into the control panel:
• Autoprogram—Perform an autoprogram at the control panel. The sounder base will have the
same SLC device address as the detector installed on the sounder base. Once the Autoprogram
is performed, the display will show the number of sounder bases installed on the control panel.
Refer to Section 2.3.2, “Autoprogram the Control Panel (1=auto)”, on page 15.
• VeriFire Tools —Using VeriFire™ Tools, program the detector that is to be installed in the
sounder base and select the Intelligent Sounder Base option. Refer to the VeriFire Tools Help
File for additional information.
Intelligent Sounder Base Options:
The sounder base has user programmable options that can be modified via VeriFire Tools. These
features and their defaults are as follows:
