Fire Alarm System Limitations An automatic fire alarm system–typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warn- ing devices, and a fire alarm control with remote notification capability–can provide early warning of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.
Installation Precautions WARNING - Several different sources of power can be con- nected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of power before servicing. Control unit and associated equip- ment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized.

4.10 NAC Operation There are two programmable NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits) resident on the Unimode 9600 main circuit board. Both NACs may be programmed as silenceable or nonsilenceable and may also be programmed for steady or coded operation. Coded operation provides a choice between March Time, Temporal or California coding.
4.15 Time Functions: Real-Time Clock The Unimode 9600 includes a crystal-based clock that provides time of day, date and day of week. Time is displayed as 12 or 24 hour time with month/day/year and is stored in RAM.
4.16 Synchronized NAC Operation Synchronization is a panel feature that controls the activation of notification appliances in such a way that all devices will turn on and off at exactly the same time. This is particularly critical when activating strobes which must be synchronized to avoid random activation and a potential hazard or confusion.
4.19 Positive Alarm Sequence PAS (Positive Alarm Sequence) option will program an initiating device to delay panel activation (including alarm relay and communicator) for a period of 15 seconds. Zone 97, however, will activate immediately and may be used to connect a signaling device to indicate PAS activation.
4.20 Special System Timers 4.20.1 Silence Inhibit Timer This option, if selected, prevents the Alarm Silence key from functioning for 60 seconds following an alarm. A new alarm during the initial 60 seconds will cause the timer to restart with a new 60 seconds. Silence Inhibit operation requires the approval of the local Authority Having Jurisdiction.
4.20.5 Alarm Verification (None or Two Minutes) If alarm verification is selected, an addressable smoke detector's alarm is ignored for a retard time of 13 seconds and the detector's alarm condition is automatically reset. There will be no alarm indication at the FACP during the Retard period. A confirmation period of one minute and 47 seconds follows, during which a subsequent alarm from the same detector will cause the panel to immediately activate the appropriate outputs and indicate the alarm condition at the FACP.
4.22 Read Status Read Status functions do not require a password. The control panel will continue to provide fire protection while in Read Status mode. This mode can be entered while the control panel is in alarm or trouble. If a new alarm or trouble occurs during these functions, the Read Status is exited to prevent confusion.
