Indicators, Controls and Operations 9.3.3 Fire Drill Button The Fire Drill button activates all Non-Disconnected Indicating Circuits, but does not transmit any Alarms via the City Tie, Common Alarm Relay or Auxiliary Alarm Relay. Fire Drill activates the signals in the evacuation code programmed. For example in the Temporal Code, the signals will be pulsed ON for 0.5 seconds, OFF for 0.5 seconds in rounds of 3 and then pause for 1.5 seconds and repeat.
Indicators, Controls and Operations 9.3.8 ALM/SUP/TBL/BLDG AUDIBLE SIL Button (or Menu for single stage systems) If the Panel is configured as a two-stage system, press the ALM/SUP/TBL/BLDG AUDIBLE SIL (buzzer silence) button to silence the buzzer. The buzzer resounds if there is a subsequent event.
Indicators, Controls and Operations programmed (see Configuration and CFG-300 LCD Service Tool on page 60). The relay will function the same way as an alarm relay if the supervisory relay is disabled (see Configuration and CFG-300 LCD Service Tool on page 60). 9.5.3 Common Trouble Relay The Common Trouble relay is activated when the common trouble sequence is activated as the result of the trouble condition being detected on the system.

Indicators, Controls and Operations processed. An alarm condition causes the associated Circuit Status LED and the Common Alarm LED to illuminate red. Note: Do not use Retard Operation with any external retarding device; maximum retard may not exceed 120 seconds. 9.6.5 Sprinkler Alarm (for Sprinkler Flow Sensors) Sprinkler Alarms are identical to normal Non-Verified Alarms unless Water flow retard operation is enabled.
Indicators, Controls and Operations 9.6.11 Indicating (Signal) Circuits Types 9.6.12 Silenceable Signal The Silenceable Signal circuit is used for audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or automatically. While sounding, these devices follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the configured Evacuation Code (default is Temporal Code) during Single-Stage Alarm or Two-Stage General Alarm, or the Alert Code during the alert (first) stage of a two-stage alarm.
Indicators, Controls and Operations General AlarmEvacuation Code as selected from above.

Alarm inputs include any of the following: Non-Verified Alarm, Verified Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, Water flow Alarm, and General Alarm Circuits.
Indicators, Controls and Operations Two-stage Operation In a Two-Stage System Alarm inputs are either First Stage (Alert) inputs or Second Stage (General Alarm) inputs. First Stage inputs include inputs from the following types of circuits: Non-Verified Alarm, Verified Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, and Water flow Alarm. Second Stage inputs include Alarms on General Alarm Circuits, activation of the General Alarm button, or expiration of the Auto General Alarm Timer.
