Device type
Description
Waterflow No Delay
For connecting vane type and pressure flow switches. Activations are
considered as alarms. No alarm delay applies to waterflow activations for
this device type. Circuit cannot be restored until devices are restored to
normal and the panel is reset. Waterflow activations do not invoke in suite
signal silence. [1]
Waterflow No Delay Class A
For connecting vane type and pressure flow switches in a Class A circuit.
Activations are considered as alarms. No alarm delay applies to waterflow
activations for this device type. Circuit cannot be restored until devices are
restored to normal and the panel is reset. Waterflow activations do not
invoke in suite signal silence. [1]
Smoke
For smoke detectors that trigger an active alarm event.
[1] Supports Standalone mode of operation.
Table 13: Supervisory device types
Device
types Description
Duct supervisory (latching and
nonlatching)
For duct supervisory devices. Momentary activation of normally open devices
immediately places the panel in a supervisory state and turns on supervisory
LEDs and relays. Circuit cannot be restored until devices are restored to normal
and the panel is reset. Resetting the panel is not required for nonlatching.
Supervisory latching
For supervisory devices. Momentary activation of normally open devices
immediately places the panel in a supervisory state and turns on supervisory
LEDs and relays. Circuit cannot be restored until devices are restored to normal
and the panel is reset.
Supervisory nonlatching
For supervisory devices. Momentary activation of normally open devices
immediately places the panel in a supervisory state and turns on the supervisory
LED and relay. Annunciation remains active until the input restores. The panel
does not have to be reset.
Table 14: Trouble device types
Device type
Description
Remote AC fail
For use with auxiliary power supplies to provide AC Fail indication to the fire
panel. The fire panel treats this activation as if the panel itself detected an AC fail
condition. Delays off-premises signaling for the selected time duration.
Table 15: Monitor device types
Device
type Description
Monitor
Monitoring of normally open switches for other functions (fire door position, etc.).
Not approved for use under CAN/ULC-S527 in Canada.

Device type
Description
Continuous nonsilenceable
For nonsilenceable strobes and notification appliances that generate a temporal
pattern. [2]
