Option Description
is set for alarm verification.
• If the detector is set for alarm verification, the base activates when the
detector goes into alarm verification. It does not restore, however, until the
alarm restores.
• The base does not respond when the detector goes into prealarm no
matter how the detector is configured. Also, the base only follows the
primary element of a dual element detector. Any activation from a
secondary element does not trigger the base.
Example: When a PCOS on a sounder base has a follow set to Head, the
base is only triggered when a smoke event is generated. The base does
not trigger when a CO event is generated.
Riser: The base is triggered individually by the panel (sounder bases only)
None: A correlation group triggers the base. The opton “None” can be applied
to both relay and sounder bases, and is used for relay bases configured as
latched output devices.
Note: All base follow settings except Head and Riser can be activated by
correlation groups.
Alarm: The base activates its relay when the detector goes into alarm. The
base will not restore until the alarm event has been restored.
Alarm and verify (ALM+VFY): The base activates its relay when the detector
goes into alarm verify and continues when the detector goes into alarm. The
base will not restore until both events have been restored.
Alarm and prealarm (ALM+PALM): The base activates its relay when the
detector goes into prealarm and continues when the detector goes into an
alarm. The base will not restore until both events have been restored.
Type Select the device type based on the type of device you are programming.
Note: Available device types depend on the device and the marketplace
selected for the panel. Some device types are not available in some
marketplaces. For this reason, the LCD listing for the selected device may
differ from this table.
Duct detectors (SD)
Duct alarm: For duct smoke detectors. All activations are immediately
considered as alarms. Circuit cannot be restored until devices are restored
to normal and the panel is reset.
Duct supervisory latching: Detectors with this device type when activated
immediately places the panel in the supervisory state, turns on
supervisory LEDs, and activates the supervisory relays. The detectors
remain active until the smoke condition clears and the panel is reset.
Duct supervisory nonlatching: Detectors with this device type when
activated immediately places the panel in the supervisory state, turns on
supervisory LEDs, and activates the supervisory relays. The detectors
remain active until the smoke condition clears. Resetting the panel is not
required.
