Press the <Silence> Key to de-activate any silenceable outputs such as
NACs and SLC-based signal or relay modules after all alarms have been
acknowledged. Outputs are made silenceable through the ARIES
configuration program. The control unit will display the following message
for 5 to 10 seconds.

You may then manually scroll through the list of active and acknowledged
alarm-initiating devices, by using the <SCROLL> Key, after the message
in Figure 3-12 is displayed. A summary of the number of active alarm
events will be displayed as shown in Figure 3-11 at the conclusion of each
manual scroll cycle.
The Silence LED will illuminate when the <Silence> Key is pressed after all
alarms have been acknowledged. A subsequent press of the <SILENCE>
Key will re-activate any outputs that were silenced if no new alarm events
have been reported since the outputs were silenced. The Silence LED will
also go out. This toggling capability will remain in effect until the control
unit is reset.
Note: The toggling capability is only available for stand-alone panels.
A silence command that caused all silenceable outputs to de-activate will
be overridden by a subsequent alarm report. All silenced outputs
associated with the subsequent alarm-initiating device will reactivate, and
the Silence LED will go out. You will need to press the <SILENCE> Key
again to de-activate any active, silenceable outputs.
Note: There is a 10-second buffer period during which subsequent
presses of the <SILENCE> Key are intentionally ignored. A
subsequent key press will only be acted upon after at least 10
seconds have elapsed since the previous key press.
