Soft Keys
VERIFY TIME: Press this soft key to set the Alarm Verification timer. Type in a value of 0-60
(seconds), which will delay initiating devices set for Alarm Verification from signaling for the
amount of time entered. If a second alarm occurs while the alarm verification timer is counting, the
timer will stop and the alarm will signal immediately. Default: 30
Note: This value may not exceed 30 seconds for ULC installations.
MAXIMUM VERIFICATION COUNT: Press and enter a value from 0-20 for a maximum
verification count threshold value that applies to detectors set to participate in Alarm Verification.
A value of zero produces no verification trouble. When the counter exceeds the threshold value
entered, a trouble is generated to the panel. Default: 20
AC FAIL DELAY: Press this soft key to set the timing for the time delay from AC Failure to when
the trouble is reported. Type in a value of 6-12 (hours), or 0 (zero). A value of zero will cause
immediate notification. Default: 8
The onboard trouble relay ( TB3 on the CPU-3030 ) will activate and TM-4s will report according
to this setting.
UDACTs are notified immediately of AC failure by the panel, regardless of the panel’s delay
setting. Once the UDACT receives notification, it operates according to its own programmed AC
Fail Delay reporting schedule.
Example: AC Failure occurs at 1:00 p.m. on a panel with an AC FAIL DELAY setting of 8
hours. The UDACT is set for notification after 6 hours.
The AMPS-24, ACPS-2406, and XPIQ power supplies must be set to an AC Delay value of 0
(zero) when used with this panel.
SILENCE INHIBIT: Press to enter a value from 0 (disabled) to 5 minutes. This software timer
disables the SIGNAL SILENCE key function for the time entered when a fire alarm occurs. The
timer starts at the first alarm only; it does not restart with each new alarm. Default: 0
