Setting alarm verification timer to Canadian operation
Introduction When you select Canadian operation for the alarm verification feature, the system operates as
follows:
• If a point specified within one of the alarm verification lists enters an alarm state, the
system delays the annunciation of the alarm for 15 seconds.
• When the 15-second timer expires, the system attempts to reset the initiating device for
five seconds.
• After the five-second timer expires, the system evaluates the state of the initiating device
for 10 additional seconds. After 10 seconds, if the device is still in alarm, the system
immediately annunciates the alarm.
Procedure 1. Click on the List tab to display the List window.
