–
–
Depending on the configuration, external transmission devices (e.g. fire department),
notification appliances (e.g. sirens and/or strobes) and fire protection systems (e.g. sprinkler
systems, fire doors) are activated.
Notice!
If an alarm delay is set for the detector triggering the alarm, the alarm signal is not
transmitted immediately and the message can be checked; see Entry delays.
8.2

Entry delays

To prevent false alarms, it is possible to delay the transmission of the first alarm signal. The
transmission device to the fire department is not activated immediately in this case. During
the delay, the message can be checked to ensure it is correct.
The FSP-5000-RPS programming software can be used to program various strategies for
avoiding false alarms. These strategies are principally used in fire detectors but can also be
assigned to any other detector, depending on how it is configured.
The alarm delays that can be shown in the panel controller display are explained below.
