ALARM OPTIONS
8.1 BELL/ALARM OUTPUT
Section [500]: Options [5] to [8]
When a partition generates an alarm, the control
panel can toggle the onboard BELL/ALARM output
enabling any bells or sirens connected to it. As the
control panel can enable this feature for each
individual partition, in section [500] turn on the option
that corresponds to the desired partition, where
options [5] to [8] represent partitions 1 through 4
respectively.
8.2 BELL CUT-OFF TIMER
Sections [234] to [237]: 001-255 minutes
After an audible alarm, the bell or siren will stop upon
disarming of the partition or when the Bell Cut-Off
Timer has elapsed. As the control panel can set a
Bell Cut-Off Timer for each individual partition, select
the section corresponding to the desired partition and
enter any value between 001 and 255 minutes
(000=5 minutes).
8.2.1 No Bell Cut-Off on Fire Alarm
Section [502]: Option [8]
The control panel can disable the Bell Cut-Off Timer
when alarms generated from zones defined as
Standard or Delayed Fire Zones (see section 5.2)
occur. The bell/siren output will remain enabled until
a user cancels the partition in alarm.
8.2.2 Recycle Alarm
Sections [242] to [249]
Once the Bell Cut-Off Timer has elapsed and after
the Recycle Delay has elapsed, the Recycle Alarm
feature will re-verify the zone status and if there are
any open zones, the control panel will generate
another alarm.
In the section corresponding to the desired partition,
program the number of times (001-255, 000=no limit)
in one armed period you wish the control panel to re-
verify the zone status after bell cut-off. Where sections
[242] to [245] represent partitions 1 through 4.
In the section corresponding to the desired partition,
program the Recycle Delay from 001-255 minutes
(000=disabled). Where sections [246] to [249]
represent partitions 1 through 4. The Recycle Delay
is the amount of time after Bell Cut-off the control
panel will wait before re-verifying the zone status.
8.3 TAMPER RECOGNITION OPTIONS
Section [501]: Options [5] & [6]
If a tamper or wire fault occurs in an armed
partition, regardless of the Tamper Recognition
Options, the control panel will always generate an
alarm, unless Tamper Recognition has been
disabled as described below. Alarms will be silent
or audible depending on individual zone settings.
If a tamper or wire fault occurs in a disarmed
partition, the control panel will generate an incident
depending on the following settings:
[5] OFF / [6] OFF - TAMPER RECOGNITION DISABLED
The control panel will not perform any action other
than generate a standard alarm when a tamper or
wire fault occurs in an armed. If the system is
disarmed, the control panel will display the zone as
open in the keypad display but will not generate an
alarm or trouble. This option is not permitted on UL
systems.
[5] OFF / [6] ON - SILENT ALARM
Same as “Trouble Only”, but it will also generate a
silent alarm (no bells or sirens).
[5] ON / [6] OFF - TROUBLE ONLY
When a tamper wiring failure occurs, the “Zone
Fault” trouble will appear in the keypad’s Trouble
Display and the control panel will transmit the
appropriate report code (see section 9.2).
[5] ON / [6] ON - AUDIBLE ALARM
Same as “Trouble Only”, except it will also generate
an audible alarm.
8.3.1 Tamper Bypass Options
Section [501] - Option [7]
With option [7] enabled in section [501], Tamper
Recognition follows the zone bypass definition. This
means the control panel will not perform any action
if a tamper or wire fault occurs on a bypassed zone.
With option [7] disabled, the Tamper Recognition
ignores the bypass definition. This means the
control panel will generate an incident (see Tamper
