Table 7-1: Alarm Delay Characteristics
Type of Delay Description
1-Count
One Count (No Delay). When this option is enabled, an alarm occurs immediately
when a single device of any of the following types goes into alarm: detector, manual
pull, water flow, Aux1 or Aux2. This is considered the most typical operation and is the
default for all zones.
2-Count
When this type of alarm delay is used, two or more detectors within the zone must go
into alarm in order for the zone to report an alarm. Switches of type manual pull, water
flow, Aux1 and Aux2 are an exception; they will cause an alarm when only one switch
is in alarm.
When a single detector is in alarm in a 2-Count zone, the system enters a prealarm
condition. In a prealarm condition, the touch-pad PZT beeps and the annunciator
display indicates that a prealarm has occurred. If the zone has been mapped to an
output group for the prealarm event, the output group will activate. The prealarm will
not be reported to the central station.
Note: SK-FIRE-CO detectors can be installed in a 1 or 2 count zone but will
operate as a 1-count point in that zone.
Alarm Ver.
Alarm verification is an optional false alarm prevention feature that verifies an alarm
condition by resetting the smoke detector. If the alarm condition still exists by the time
the reset cycle has completed, the detector will go into alarm. If the detector is no
longer in alarm, no report will go to the central station. The alarm verification
sequence is ignored if the zone is already in alarm.
PAS
This option is intended to be used with an acknowledge switch. An alarm is delayed
for 15 seconds, giving on-site personnel a chance to investigate the alarm. If the
acknowledge switch is not activated within 15 seconds, an alarm occurs automatically.
If this option is enabled for a zone, the zone will respond to an alarm condition as
follows:
• The zone will not go into alarm for 15 seconds to allow an on-site operator to acti-
vate the acknowledge switch.
• If the operator does not press the acknowledge switch within 15 seconds, the
zone will go into alarm.
• If the operator presses the acknowledge switch within 15 seconds, a 180-second
time-frame will begin counting down. This time-frame allows the operator to
investigate the cause of the alarm.
If the operator performs a reset within 180 seconds, the alarm will not occur. If the opera-
tor does not perform a reset within 180 seconds, an alarm will occur automatically.
• The P.A.S. feature will be overridden if another alarm occurs.
