AC Fail
The AC Fail is the delay before the panel reports that it has lost AC power. The panel itself goes
into AC Fail mode to conserve power immediately upon losing AC. This delay is the length of time
before the panel generates the trouble condition. This can be set from 0 to 1800 minutes (30
hours). If a time of 0 minutes is entered, the panel uses a 10 second delay. Note: For a panel
connected to UL-listed monitoring stations, a time of 6 to 12 hours (360 to 720 minutes) is
required. The 30-hour time is available for those locations with long standby requirements.
Fan Delay
Fan Delay sets the number of scans between the reset of each Control Module (relay) on an
addressable circuit. This is to allow for the staggered restart of fans when the system is reset. This
option can be enabled or disabled on each addressable circuit as required. It has no affect on
Control Modules (supervising).
Bell Cutoff
Bell Cutoff is the length of time the bells sound before they are automatically silenced by the panel.
A time of 0 disables this feature. The cutoff can be set from 5 to 30 minutes.
Coded Bell Speed
Coded Bell Speed sets the time interval between the bits of the codes. This speed can be 1, ¾, ½
or ¼ second. The time between digits is three times this speed. The time between rounds is seven
times this speed. Note that a minimum of three rounds of coded bells is required per NFPA 72.
Maintenance Margin
Maintenance Margin sets the gap between the maintenance threshold and the alarm threshold for
addressable sensors. If the sensor stays between these two values for the Maintenance Retard
time, the panel reports a Maintenance Alert trouble for the sensor. The margin can be set from 0 to
500, with 0 giving no warning and 500 giving the earliest warning.
Maintenance Retard
Maintenance Retard is the number of consecutive scans the addressable sensor has to stay
between the maintenance and alarm thresholds to generate the Maintenance Alert trouble. This
retard can be from 5 to 50 scans. Scan time can vary from 2.5 to 5 seconds with usual values from
3.5 to 4 seconds.
Enable Disconnect and Test Timeout
Enable Disconnect & Test Timeout enables or disables disconnect timeouts. If the timeouts are
disabled, Relay Disconnect Signal Disconnect, Common Disconnect and Test Mode must all be
manually ended. If enabled, these functions are automatically ended after four hours.
Suppress Missing Signals
Suppress Missing Signals allows for the suppression of device missing signals for a loop that has
a short or ground fault condition. If enabled, the panel only reports the short or ground fault
condition, but not the missing device messages.
