Confirm Time
Time period during which a second activation must occur to qualify as a 'sequentially
confirmed' alarm. NOTE: BS8243 specifies a confirm time between 30 and 60
minutes. This can also be used in conjunction with testing an omit signal.
HU Confirm
Time period during which a second activation on a hold alarm must occur to qualify as
Time
a 'sequentially confirmed' alarm. NOTE: BS8243 specifies a confirm time between
eight and 20 hours. This can also be used in conjunction with testing an omit signal.
Strobe Time
The duration of time the strobe output remains live after the bell time ends ('99'
means endless).
Re-Arm No.
The number of times the system re-arms after the bell time ends. Re-arm number
applies to each area and does not affect emergency alarms ('9' = 'always re-arm').
AC Signal
The time delay before the mains failure or technical alarm is notified. (NOTE: Setting
Delay
'250' = never alarms). System changeover to battery supply and associated visual
alert indication is always immediate.
Some ATE imposes a randomised delay in notifying a mains fail. This should be taken
into account when setting this timer.
Settle
The time between final exit input closing and the system setting. When a code is
entered to set the system the exit time will start, but the system will not set until it
sees the final exit door open and close and then waits the duration of the settle time.
Double Knock
The length of the filter period applied to inputs with the 'Double Knock' input
attribute.
Pre-Alarm
Delays 'Intruder' output signals if the entry time has started. Pre-alarm time must be
set for at least 30 seconds to comply with PD6662
Comms Fault
Duration of 'Comms Fault' before the 'Comms Fault' alarm is triggered. NOTE: In the
Delay
case of devices connected via the ATE pins, this time is additional to that already
applied by the ATE.
Set Fail
The time after which the 'Set Fail' operation will be invoked if the exit procedure is not
completed.
Guard Code
Minimum time an alarm must have existed before a
Alarm
'Guard' code will be accepted to unset.
Fire Siren
The cut off time for the fire alarm ('99' means endless).
Time
Set Fail
The time for which a set fail warning will be present.
Warning
Input NAT
This 'None Activity Timer' (NAT) works in conjunction with the Input Attribute 'Monitor
Days
Activity' and defines the time after which the 'Zone Activity Fl' output will be triggered
when 'Monitor Activity' is enabled for an associated input.
Input NAT
Used in conjuction with 'Input NAT Days' to give a total time defined in days and
Hours
hours combined (e.g. 0 days, 1 hour or 14 days, 23 hours etc.)
Wireless
This option is only applicable if wireless devices are installed. It is the time window
Supervision
before a wireless supervision fault will be signalled, for example: if the time is set for
Time
two hours, then any device that does not communicate with the control panel within
that period will cause a supervision fault. This must be programmed to two hours or
less for compliance to EN50131.
Wireless
This option is only applicable if wireless devices are installed. It is the time window
Jamming
that a fault would display if a wireless device had its signal 'blocked', for example: if
Time
the time is set to 30 seconds, then if a wireless device is 'jammed' longer than 30
seconds a fault will be displayed. This must be programmed to 30 seconds or less
(but not zero) for compliance to EN50131.
Service Time
This is a timer that can be set in days, and will display a message to the user to warn
that a service is due. An engineer code will clear the message.
