Honeywell XLS80e - Module Delays

XLS80e Fire Alarm Control Panels
115 Honeywell, Issue 9
March 2007
Note: ‘Device Missing’ faults are reported
immediately, but analogue level faults
are delayed as above.
You are advised to retain a delay on Fault and
Pre-Alarm events (note that the same
parameter is common to both), to allow for
sensor ‘settling’ time, especially after system
power-up. A Fire alarm delay should not
normally be set unless specific site conditions
make this necessary.
If a sensor is walk-tested the corresponding
delay is ignored.
13.3 Module Delays
The module alarm and fault delays are factory
set as follows:
a. Fire Alarm
(where applicable): 0 seconds
(immediate)
b. Short-Circuit
and Open-Circuit: 20 seconds
If a module is walk-tested the corresponding
delay is ignored.
You are advised to retain a delay on the Short
Circuit and Open Circuit Fault events (note that
the same parameter is common to both) to
allow for module ‘settling’ time, especially after
system power-up. The following rules apply to
Short-Circuit monitoring:
a. If Short-Circuit monitoring is OFF, a Fire
Alarm delay should not normally be set
unless the equipment function makes this
necessary, and not for a manual call point.
b. If Short-Circuit monitoring is ON, a Fire
delay of 1 second is recommended to stop
the transition of a short circuit through Fire
being reported as a Fire alarm.
If Short-Circuit
monitoring is ON,
a Fire delay of 1 second
is recommended.
