re-sound upon any subsequent alarm. This button does not function during any configured Signal
Silence Inhibit Timer period. It also does not function if indicating circuits are active as the result of
a fire drill. In a two stage system, if the Auto General Alarm Timer has not timed out, the Signal
Silence button also performs the same function as the Acknowledge button.
