If a smoke detector with the function type
VSMOKE enters a current-limited state, the
panel's alarm verification cycle begins. The panel
starts a delay timer of 30 seconds. When the
timer expires, the zone containing the activated
detector is reset. Following the reset, another 10
second timer starts. When the 10 second timer
expires, the system checks the device for an
alarm. If a current-limited condition exists on the
device, the panel initiates a fire alarm. If no cur-
rent-limited condition exists, the panel starts a 2
minute timer. While the timer is counting down,
any current-limited condition on any other device
will trigger a fire alarm.
A short from a pull-station always triggers an
alarm condition, regardless of the alarm verifica-
tion cycle.
At any stage of the alarm verification cycle, the
presence of two devices in alarm triggers an
alarm condition.
Note: The VSMOKE function type shall not be
enabled for Canadian applications.

This is a generic fire alarm point type. A typical
application for this point type is a fire alarm
zone containing more than one type of device.
For example, when a combination of smoke
detectors, pull stations, waterflow monitors, and
heat detectors is connected to an IAM or
ZAM, this point type allows alarms to report as
originating from a zone.

Function
Type
STYLEC
Style-C Fire Alarm Monitor. Used when only cur-
rent limited devices are connected to the zone. A
short circuit is reported as a Trouble.
SUPV
Used to monitor any supervisory type device
where operator acknowledgment is required.
LATSUPV
Generic supervisory monitor - latches until a sys-
tem reset occurs.
SO
Used to indicate abnormal sprinkler conditions,
such as the opening of a PIV or OS&Y tamper-
switch. Must be used with normally open contacts
only.
Combination Waterflow/Sprinkler Monitor (NO).
WSO
Where permitted by the AHJ, this circuit
monitors both waterflow sensors and PIV/OS&Y
tampers on the same circuit. All tamper switches
(N.O. contacts) must be connected with a listed
current limiting resistor. A short condition indi-
cates waterflow alarms.
Current-Limited = FIRE (water flow)
WATER
Use with normally open waterflow monitors.
