01 = Bell Time
The duration of the Bells output activation is programmable within the range 0–30 minutes; the default is 20.
Assigning a value of 00 minutes sets the Bell Time to infinity.
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
The Entry/Exit Horn is subject to the Bell Time parameter in both the set and unset conditions.
02 = Bell Delay
The delayed activation of the bell is programmable within the range 0–20 minutes; the default is 0. The Bell
Delay is overridden by a telecom failure (either a Comms Fail on the Galaxy Telecom Module or by the
activation of a Line Fail zone used to monitor a digicom); an alarm condition in either of these conditions
results in instant bells activation.
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
03 = Abort Time
The abort time is programmable within the range 0-300 seconds. The Abort Time delays the activation of
Intruder outputs during the unsetting of the system.
The abort time is initiated:
• whenever a zone that is not on the entry route (Final, Entry and Exit zones) is activated — a
user strays from the entry route;
• a valid code is not entered before the entry time expires.
There are two modes of operation for the abort:
1. Standard abort (required in the UK for DD243 compliance).
2. Star abort.
Standard Abort Operation
If the programmed Abort Time is allowed to expire, the Intruder outputs remain active (latched on) until a
code authorised to reset the system is entered (refer to parameter 06 = System Reset).
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
The operation of the Abort feature is described as follows and indicates under what conditions the Abort
output will be activated.
Note: to comply with the NACOSS standards NACP 10, the Star Abort operation must not be
programmed. To comply with DD243:2002, the abort time must be programmed for 001 secs.
For entry route deviation, the signalling of an intruder alarm is delayed.
If a valid code is entered before the entry time expires:
(1) The intruder is not signaled.
(2) The system does not require a system reset.
If a valid code is not entered before the entry time expires or an entry timeout condition occurs:
(1) The intruder is signaled at the end of the entry time.
(2) The Abort timer starts on expiry of the entry time.
If a valid code is entered within the programmed abort time:
(1) If an abort output/channel is allocated to the alarmed group:
a) The Abort signal is sent.
b) The intruder condition is not restored.
c) Intruder restore is not signalled.
