How to Program a Release Circuit
Note: A Release Circuit with this Type Code requires the following selections: a Releasing Zone; an output circuit
mapped to the same Releasing Zone; Switch Inhibit; Non-Silenceable; No Walk Test.
Note: Do not use a Release Circuit for the following: An application requiring ULC Listing; An application
requiring power-limited energy cable.
The following contains information needed to program a Release Circuit for an SLC output circuit
module
.
Description An SLC output module used to activate a releasing solenoid or other releasing
device. Multiple outputs with the
RELEASE CKT Type Code can be mapped to the
same Releasing Zone. When the Releasing Zone activates, all outputs associated
with the releasing zone and with the
RELEASE CKT Type Code also activate at the
same time. A Release Circuit activates when:
• An initiating device programmed to the same Releasing Zone activates (two
devices if using the Cross Zone option)
• The Delay Timer for the releasing zone (if used) expires
• The Abort Switch for the releasing zone (if used) is not active
Program Select an SLC output module to use as a Release Circuit. While programming the
point (refer to the Point Programming section of this manual for instructions),
1. Select the
RELEASE CKT Type Code
2. Enter the number of the desired Releasing Zone into the module’s zone map.
The releasing zone must be fully programmed (refer to "Releasing Zone" on
page 46).
