2.14 Operation of Special System Timers, Presignal, and PAS
2.14.1 System (Panel) Timers
There are user-programmable time delays for four specific functions: Alarm Verification, AC Fail,
Silence Inhibit, and Auto Silence. Refer to this panel's programming manual for instructions on
viewing or modifying these values. (They may be viewed only in programming mode.)
Alarm Verification Timer (
A timer that directs the control panel to ignore a fire alarm for a smoke detector, programmed for
Alarm Verification, while the Alarm Verification Timer is counting. The timer value can be set
from 0-60 seconds, and may not exceed 30 seconds for ULC installations. Table 2.3 contains a
summary of how the Alarm Verification Timer works.
A second fire alarm occurs while the
Alarm Verification Timer is counting
The Alarm Verification Timer elapses and
a fire alarm still exists
The Alarm Verification Timer expires and
a fire alarm no longer exists
AC Fail Delay Timer
This timer delays the time from the start of AC failure to when the trouble is reported. The timer
value may be set to none, or from 1-12 hours. A value of "none" will cause immediate notification.
The onboard trouble relay and municipal box output will activate when the countdown is complete.
Note that this panel notifies the central station communicator as soon as AC failure occurs, and the
central station communicator follows its own programmed schedule for reporting the failure.
