GX-Series Control Panel Installation and Setup Guide
01 = Bell Time
The duration of the Bells output activation is programmable within the range 0–30 minutes; the default is
15. Assigning a value of 00 minutes sets the Bell Time to infinity.
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
The Entry/Exit Horn is subject to the Bell Time parameter in both the set (armed) and unset (disarmed)
conditions.
02 = Bell Delay {Not for UL installations}
The delayed activation of the bell is programmable within the range 0–20 minutes; the default is 0. The Bell
Delay is overridden by a communications failure (either a Comms Fail on the Communication Module or
by the activation of a Line Fail zone used to monitor an external dialer or communicator); an alarm
condition in either of these conditions results in instant bells activation.
This parameter can be assigned a different value for each group.
03 = Abort Time
The abort function delays the activation of a full intruder alarm condition following an entry alarm. This
parameter has 2 sub-options:
1 = Abort Time
The abort time is programmable within the range 0-300 seconds and can be assigned a different value
for each group. The abort time will be initiated:
•
whenever a zone that is not on the entry route (Final, Entry and Exit zones) is activated — a user
strays from the entry route;
•
a valid code is not entered before the entry time expires.
The abort operation can be modified by adding a * or # to the programmed time. The standard abort
operation is as follows:
•
For entry route deviation, the signaling of an intruder alarm is delayed.
•
If a valid code is entered before the entry time expires:
(1) The intruder is not signaled.
(2) The system does not require a system reset.
•
If a valid code is not entered before the entry time expires or an entry timeout condition occurs:
(1) The intruder is signaled at the end of the entry time.
(2) The Abort timer starts on expiration of the entry time.
•
If a valid code is entered within the programmed abort time:
(1) If an abort output/channel is allocated to the alarmed group:
a) The Abort signal is sent.
b) The intruder condition is not restored.
c) Intruder restore is not signaled.
(2) If there is no abort output allocated to the alarmed group:
a) The intruder condition is restored.
b) Intruder restore is signaled.
•
If the programmed abort time is allowed to expire without a valid code being entered, then the
system requires a system reset. The panel cannot be set (armed) until this occurs.
NOTE: If reduced resets (51.55.3) is enabled, the alarm will be reset by the user code, if the alarm is
unconfirmed.
Modified Abort Operation
Pound # abort alters the standard operation so that the signaling of the intruder condition is delayed until
the end of the abort time. If the system is unset (disarmed) during the entry time or abort time, no alarm
conditions will be signaled.
*
Star abort alters the standard operation so that if a user strays from the entry route within the entry
time, the intruder is signaled as soon as the entry deviation occurs.
