System Configuration

that configuration changes take effect immediately as they are made, there is no "undo"

function.

9.4 Exiting Configuration Mode

To exit configuration mode after all desired changes are made, all configuration DIP switches

must be returned to a "0" or OFF position (bottom position). Wait about five seconds before

pressing the System Reset button. The system should now be back in normal operation.

9.5 Factory Default Configuration

The system as shipped from the factory is configured with no adder modules, and with set

defaults as outlined below:

• All initiating circuits are Style B (Class B) non-verified alarms (any alarm on any initiating

circuit activates all indicating circuits)

• Indicating circuits are all common alarm and set as silenceable, temporal code. If shorts

exist on any indicating circuits, then they will not activate on alarms.

• Manual signal silence is enabled

• Fire drill is enabled

• Two stage is disabled (the system will operate single stage)

• If a two stage system is enabled, the common alarm relay operates on both stages

• All indicating and relay correlations are set to common alarm activation

• Water-flow retard operation is disabled

• Aux disconnect will disconnect correlated relays

• The Signal Silence Inhibit timer, Auto Signal Silence timer, and the Auto General Alarm

timer are disabled

• The systems assumes there are no remote annunciators

• Relay adder module(s) activate only on common alarm

• The system assumes that there are no adder modules

9.6 Restore to Default/Resize (Class A or B)

Restore the system to the default configuration whenever you would like to restore the factory

default configuration, and whenever circuit adder modules (detection, signal, or relay) are

added, removed, or re-arranged. Restoring the system to the default configuration is

performed slightly differently depending on whether the system is intended to operate with

Class B (Style B) or Class A (Style D) initiating circuits (detection zones).

Note: Write down the configuration changes that you make and store them with the

panel, so that you can refer to them later.

Note: Remember to set the main fire alarm board and detection adder module jumpers

for the appropriate Class (Style) (see Module Settings on page 25.), and that the

Class (Style) setting is global - for all initiating circuits.
