To enable in-suite signal silence for a correlation group:

To set the in-suite signal silence elapse timer:
1. Press the Menu button and choose Programming.

This is a global option that sets the shutdown period during which “in suite” evacuation signals
outside the alarm zone remain silenced.
Programming fast groups for sounder bases
For UL/ULC Listing, alarms are required to sound within 10 seconds after a fire is detected.
This can be difficult to achieve in large systems with hundreds of sounders, unless the
sounders are properly grouped.
To address this requirement, VS1 and VS4 systems provide 25 high priority correlation groups
per loop that can activate all sounders simultaneously. These are:
For panels with one loop only, the fast correlation groups are Groups 001 to 025
For panels with more than one loop, the fast correlation group options per loop are:
Loop 1: groups 001 to 025
Loop 2: groups 001 to 025 or 101 to 125 (user configurable).
Loop 3: groups 001 to 025 or 126 to 150 (user configurable).
Loop 4: groups 001 to 025 or 151 to 175 (user configurable).
In multiple loop systems, you can combine devices from loop 1, 2, 3, and 4 in correlation
groups 001 to 025, or you can separate them and use groups 101 to 125 for loop 2, 126 to 150
