Latching
Option
Use this switch type for manual pull stations. This input is always latched.
The switch can clear only when an alarm is reset. This switch type has the
highest priority; it overrides any other type of alarm.
Latching
Use this switch type for monitoring water flow in a sprinkler system. Switch
closure will cause a sprinkler alarm. Water flow switches can be
programmed as latching or non-latching.
You can program a delay of up to 90 seconds to be used with a water flow
switch. The delay allows for normal, brief changes in sprinkler system water
pressure. The water flow alarm will not activate unless the switch is active
Non Latching
for the programmed delay time.
If a delay is used, the system begins counting down when the switch closes.
If the switch opens (restores) before the timer expires, a water flow alarm is
not generated. If the water flow switch remains closed after the timer
expires, a water flow alarm will be generated.
Latching
Use this switch type for tamper monitoring of sprinklers and other fire
protection devices. If a contact closes, a sprinkler supervisory event will be
Non Latching
generated. Supervisory switches can be latching or non-latching.
System-level, non latching switch. This switch is an alternative way of
causing a fire drill. It has the same operation as the fire drill option available
from the annunciator. When the switch is activated, a fire drill begins; when
the switch is de-activated, the fire drill ends.
This system-level switch is an alternative way to silence the system. It has
the same effect as pressing the
This system-level switch is an alternative way to reset the system. It has the
same effect as pressing the
Positive acknowledge switch. This switch must be used in zones
programmed as Positive Alarm Sequence (see Table 7-1).
If an acknowledge switch closes when an alarm or trouble condition is not
already in progress, a trouble will occur.
You must use a UL listed normally open, momentary switch type. The
switch must be rated at 5V, 100 mA (minimum) and be used with an EOL
resistor for supervision.
