The main purpose of the siren delay is to give communication with the ARC time and
to be able to react from there, before the siren warns the intruder that the alarm has
been triggered.
The siren delay occurs when:
Partition -> Alarm reaction -> Siren + ESCC Reporting / Flash + ESCC Reporting
Communication ARC: yes
Confirmation -> Confirmation Mode -> Basic
Sounder On -> Confirm
Exceptions: Unconfirm see below
Siren On -> Confirm

No siren delay if Unconfirm for both (factory settings). See table above.
1st The siren delay does not come into effect if the alarm reaction mode does not re-
quire any communication or if a wiring error is identified.
2. The siren delay also does not come into effect when System Options -> Confirma-
tion mode is set to DD243 or BS8243 OR System options -> Confirmation -> Sirens
On is set to "Unconfirm".
3rd Sounders to which two or more partitions have been assigned use the shortest
siren delay among the partitions assigned to the sounder.
The siren delay is also prevented when System Options - Confirmation Mode is set
to Basic and Siren On is set to "Unconfirm" (default settings). These are the default
settings for the alarm panel.
The siren delay is also prevented when the ARC communication is disarmed.
No siren delay in the case of fire alarm, panic alarm or 24h alarm.

previously elapsed.

sound constantly and for the entire siren time.
No external sirens
Confirmed alarm: the alarm panel waits for a
potential siren delay and then starts

rens. These both sound for the entire siren
time.
Unconfirmed alarm: No sounders or sirens.
Confirmed alarm: the alarm panel waits for a
potential siren delay and then starts both the
