Note: Any output on the Syncro ASM system is treated as a sounder if the Silenceable and Evacuate Output attributes
are selected. If any of these outputs are faulty or disabled, the sounder fault/disabled indicator will illuminate. These
outputs would also be disabled by the ‘Disable all sounders’ menu option.
18.3.2. Def Ring Mode.
Normally applicable to sounders, Def. Ring Mode will turn the output on, upon a fire condition as defined by the global default ring
mode set on the Panel Settings page of the PC configuration programme or as set via the Edit Configuration menus on the panel.
There are three options for Def. Ring Mode:-
Common Alarm - All outputs operate continuously regardless of which zone they are in.
Zoned Alarm - Outputs in the same zone as the input, which caused the alarm, will operate continuously.
2 Stage Alarm - Outputs that are in the same zone as the input which caused the alarm will operate continuously whilst outputs in
all other zones will pulse 1 second on - 1 second off.
The factory default setting for the panel Default Ring Mode is Common Alarm.This normally applies to sounders and would normally
be accompanied by the Evacuate and Silenceable attributes.
Note: When controlling outputs using cause & effects the def ring mode should be de-selected to ensure that the output is only
controlled by the cause and effect logic.
18.3.3. Silenceable
Silenceable is normally applicable to sounder outputs and ensures that the output switches off when the alarm is
silenced/acknowledged by the front panel pushbutton or operation of an input that is configured as an Ack. Alarm (Acknowledge
Alarm) input .
Note: Any output on the Syncro ASM system is considered as a sounder if the Silenceable and Evacuate Output
attributes are selected. If any of these outputs are faulty or disabled, the sounder fault/disabled indicator will
illuminate. These outputs would also be disabled by the ‘Disable All Sounders’ menu option.
18.3.4. Alert
An alert output will pulse on and off when any alert input is operated. This normally applies to sounders and would normally be
accompanied by the Def. Ring Mode and Silenceable attributes i.e. a sounder output. Note: Some devices do not support pulsing
outputs.
18.3.5. Stage one delay
Outputs can be delayed from 0 to 5 minutes in half-minute steps by changing the default delay of zero to the desired time delay
setting.
18.3.6. Stage two delay
If the output is silenceable, the stage two-delay option becomes available. The stage two delay gives an additional time before the
output operates after the alarm is acknowledged during the stage one delay.
Note: Care must be taken when configuring outputs with a combination of delays to some outputs and no delays to
other outputs. To start the Stage two delay, the Silence Alarm/Acknowledge button must be pressed during the Stage
one delay period. If outputs elsewhere on the system are configured with no output delays and are also configured as
silenceable, then these outputs will be silenced when the stage one delay is acknowledged.
In the majority of systems, the delays to outputs are configured to all sounder outputs to allow a variable search time
and therefore this comment is not applicable.
18.3.7. Zoning
Each output can also be put into a zone or not as required. It is useful to put outputs into zones if the output is required to respond
to default ring mode or is to be controlled by a cause and effect entry.
Outputs that are not put into a zone and are configured to respond to default ring mode will always turn on with any fire condition
(i.e. common alarm). Care should be taken to ensure that no more than 32 devices should affected by a single short or break in any
detection circuit.
18.3.8. Location text
Finally, each output can be given a location address. As well as being useful in identifying devices with monitored outputs and
additional power, for fault conditions, the location address can be useful in identifying the device when compiling cause and effects
programmes.
18.3.9. Tech alarm
A Tech alarm output will turn on continuously when any Tech alarm input is operated.
18.3.10. Pre-alarm
A pre-alarm output will turn on continuously when any pre-alarm input is operated.
