Coded Alarms by Zone
An initiating zone can be individually programmed, using PCD-Windows Quickloader, to activate one of thirty available ca-
dences on NAC circuits.
This feature is primarily used to assist in the identification of a particular area of a large facility, such as a hospital, where a
certain section of the hospital will sound a particular code during an alarm to allow people to select the correct egress method
or path. This feature can also be used to allow schools to prevent evacuations caused by inappropriate use of pull stations. If
a pull station is activated, a person with the authority to unlock the GEMC-FK1 Fire keypad (such as a teacher) could quickly
identify the location of the activated pull station and determine whether the alarm is warranted. If not, the authorized person
would silence the alarm. See NAC Features entry for a description of the ANSI 3.41 / Temporal cadence.
Program as follows:
1. Open the NAC/Output Assignment screen, click the NAC/Output Options tab, then check the Coded Alarms by Zone
checkbox and the Coded Alarm column appears in the Zone Assignment screen (Ctrl + Shift + Z). Select a cadence for
each zone, as required.
2. Program at least one silence-able NAC output (typically all NAC outputs) for Enable Cadence (in the NAC/Output As-
signment screen, click the NAC/Output Assignments tab, then check the Enable checkbox for the selected output in
the Cadence column.
Daylight Saving Time

screen, TimeZone - DST tab. Programmable DST fields allow Daylight Saving Time to be adjusted for possible future
changes.
