Silencing the panel buzzer
The VM-1 sounds the panel buzzer when an event message is posted into one of the event message queues.
Pressing the ACK/Panel Silence button silences the panel buzzer only after all events have been acknowledged.
The panel buzzer automatically re-sounds when a new event message is posted or when the panel trouble
resound timer expires (typically 24 hours).
Notes
• The panel buzzer may be configured to sound periodically to remind you of unacknowledged event
messages.
• For nonlatching events, the panel buzzer automatically silences when the event is restored. For example,
when a trouble clears.
• Pressing the ACK/Panel Silence button also silences the buzzer on remote annunciators, provided the remote
annunciators are communicating.
