Ring Until Restored

Default: No (for all Point Indexes)
Selections: Yes/No
–
–
Use this parameter for fire or gas applications to meet the requirement that audible alarms
cannot be silenced until the fault event clears.
If the point restores and the originating alarm is not silenced from the keypad, the alarm
output continues until Fire Bell or Gas Bell time expires. If the point does not restore, the
alarm output continues even after bell time expires.

Audible After Two Fails

Default: No (for all Point Indexes)
Selections:
–
–
When set to Yes, if the report fails to reach the central station after two attempts, a silent
alarm rings the alarm bell. A silent alarm is generated when a point with Silent Bell set to Yes
is alarmed.
When a point programmed for Silent Bell, page 191 is faulted, Burg Time, page 100 starts even
though the bell is not yet ringing. It could take up to three minutes before the second attempt
has failed. Because of this, ensure Burg Time is set to provide the amount of bell time you
would like, minus the three minutes it might take before the bell actually begins to ring.

This parameter determines whether the point appears in the keypad display upon an alarm
event. Point text appears and annunciation is made for invisible points that are programmed
for a trouble event in point response.
To prevent the keypad alarm tone and the Alarm Bell, page 133 from sounding, this point must
have Silent Bell, page 191 set to Yes.
Note: Fire and Gas points always function as if this parameter is set to No.
