Common System Statuses
Two Common System Statuses were added to support Suite Silence.
• New Alarm Active - This status is set to true when a new alarm occurs and
remains true while the New Alarm timer is running.
• Auto Suite Resound - This status becomes true when the Auto Resound timer
expires.
The "Subsequent Alarm" common system status, which was used before Suite Silence was
officially supported, should not be correlated to suite signals.
Configuration
• Set the job to be Two Stage.
• Set the alert rate to "Alert" and the Evacuation rate to "Temporal". Do this on the
Job Details form in the signal rates section and if the job has audio, within the
Audio Setup dialog.
• Set the New Alarm timer to 60 seconds. Do this on the Job Details form.
• Set the Auto Resound timer to 9 minutes. Do this on the Job Details form.
• Set the Signal Silence Inhibit timer to 60 seconds. Do this on the Job Details
form. You may have to adjust the Auto Signal Silence timer since the two are
related.
• Add the detectors that are located in each suite. Create an alarm zone for each
suite and place the corresponding detectors in each zone.
• Add signal circuits for each suite.
• Correlate each suite alarm zone to the corresponding suite's signal circuits.
• Add signal circuits for areas not within the suites. E.g. Hallways.
• Correlate Common Alarm to the Hallways' signal circuits.
• Correlate the "New Alarm Active" common system status to all suite signal
circuits.
• Correlate the "Auto Suite Resound" common system status to all suite signal
circuits.
