5.20 Alarm Responses?
The Alarm Response function controls how the system communicates when certain alarms are active.
The different alarm responses are: Keypads, Internal Sounders, Bells Only and Signal Digi
(communication to ARC or user). The different alarm responses work on a cycle (starting from ‘Keypads’
and finishing at ‘Digi’). Each alarm response stage will take 15 seconds before moving on to the next
response.
For example, If the alarm response for Area A starts at ‘Internal Sounders’ and stops at ‘Digi’, then once
Area A is armed and an alarm has been activated, the internal sounders will first activate, then after 15
seconds the Sirens will activate and then after another 15 seconds the ‘Digi Modem’ will activate (signal).
You may also program the system to operate on a combined area basis, for example if both areas ‘A’ and
‘B’ are armed; you may want the process of the alarm responses to change. Therefore you would use the
‘If areas armed’ section of this function and select the desired areas and the alarm responses. If you
enter A B C for example, then AB & C must be armed for the upgrade to take place. This option is a very
useful when an outdoor perimeter area is created. It allows the creation of audible and communication
alarms following different rules compared to other areas in the system.
Area Starts at:
This feature programs where the Alarms for each area start: Keypads, Internal Sounders, Bells Only
or Signal Digi. If programmed as keypads then the alarm will start from keypad sounders and then
depending on where its programmed to stop at will progress up to maximum of communicating the
alarm event that i.e. ‘Digi’. Each alarm response will take 15 seconds before moving on to the next.
Area Stops at:
Alarms for each area can stop at: Keypads, Internal Sounders, Bells Only and Signal Digi. For
example, if programmed to start at keypad and stop at keypad this means the alarm will only be ever
displayed on the keypad.
Fire Alarm Starts at:
This feature programs the starting point of alarm responses for fire alarm. The levels are: Keypads,
Internal Sounders, Bells Only and Signal Digi.
Fire Alarm Stops at:
This feature programs the ending point of alarm responses for fire alarm: Keypads, Internal Sounders,
Bells Only and Signal Digi.
Gas Alarm Starts at:
This feature programs the starting point of alarm responses for Gas alarm. The levels are: Keypads,
Internal Sounders, Bells Only and Signal Digi.
Gas Alarm Stops at:
This feature programs the ending point of alarm responses for Gas alarm: Keypads, Internal
Sounders, Bells Only and Signal Digi.
PA Alarm Starts at:
This feature programs the starting point of alarm responses for PA alarm. The levels are: Keypads,
Internal Sounders, Bells Only and Signal Digi.

This feature programs the ending point of alarm responses for PA alarm: Keypads, Internal Sounders,
Bells Only and Signal Digi.
