3.3User-Caused False Alarms, Arming the System

3.3.1Exit Time Defaults

The SIA standard calls for Exit Time to range from 45 sec to at least two min (not to exceed 255 sec).

The default is 60 sec.

3.3.2Exit Tone

The SIA standard requires that the control panel provide an Exit Tone to alert anyone remaining in the premises that Exit Delay is in process. The tone pulsing rate increases during the last 10 sec of Exit Time.

The Exit Tone can be disabled only for individual keypads, not for the entire system.

During the last 10 sec of Exit Delay, the control panel’s Alarm Bell output pulses on and off for the last 10 sec of Exit Delay.

3.3.3Exit Time Restart

The SIA standard requires that the control have an option that restarts Exit Delay if a user follows these steps:

1.Starts Exit Delay (arms the system)

2.Exits and closes an Exit Delay zone.

3.Returns through an Exit Delay zone.

4.The control panel restarts Exit Delay (one-time restart only).

I have this feature.

I do not have this feature.

3.3.4Exit Error

When a user leaves an Exit Delay zone faulted at the end of Exit Time, the control panel creates an “Exit Error” event as specified by the SIA standard:

1.An Exit Delay point remains faulted at the end of Exit Delay.

2.Entry Delay starts. Keypads show DISARM NOW and the Entry Tone sounds.
