SETTING THE DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS ABOVE 75% FOR PROLONGED PERIODS OF TIME WILL DECREASE THE
OVERALL LIFE OF THE DISPLAY.
4.3.1 Display Conditioning Mode
Every 30 minutes, the display will enter Display Conditioning mode. During Display Conditioning, the display will transition through vari-
ous screens including a completely blank screen. This process takes about seven seconds. It is done to prevent image persistence, and keeps
information clear and undistorted. Any display interaction will abort Display Conditioning mode.
NOTE: Display Conditioning mode is not configurable. Display Conditioning will not engage when there is a Fire or CO alarm on the system, as
well as Fire and CO pre-alarm.
4.3.2 Configurable Alert Bar
The number of events in the Alert Bar is customizable using VeriFire Tools. The Alert Bar can be configured for a minimum of four events
up to a maximum of ten events

4.3.3 Alarm Verification

Alarm Verification delays a device from going into alarm to reduce false alarms. The user programs which devices participate in alarm veri-
fication, sets a panel-wide alarm verification time, alarm confirmation time, maximum verification count, and a verification pre-alarm set-
ting. If a device reaches or exceeds the alarm threshold, it will delay going into alarm by the programmed amount of alarm verification time.
If during this time, a second device on the same loop reaches its alarm threshold, the first device will immediately go into alarm.
4.3.4 Pre-Signal/Alarm Delay
The panel shall have an option to program a presignal/alarm delay time between one and three minutes (resolution in seconds). The default is
3 minutes. The panel shall have local alarm delay setting that can be turned on or off. Automatic detection devices and output devices shall
have a setting designating them to participate in local alarm delay. Devices may not be programmed for both local alarm delay and alarm
verification.
Note: when using the Alarm Delay feature, only local evacuation outputs configured to participate in the Alarm Delay feature will be
delayed upon receipt of initial alarm. Off-premises signaling will IMMEDIATELY be transmitted upon initial alarm receipt.
