7.3 Audible warning (option with requirements)
An audible warning of the voice alarm condition might be	Output contacts of the Praesideo system can be

	audible warning. A single buzzer can be used as audible
	warning device for both the voice alarm condition and the
	fault warning condition, by using a parallel connection of
	the output contacts of the Emergency alarm buzzer and the
	Fault alarm buzzer to control the actual buzzer.
	The Praesideo system does not offer priority handling for
	the Emergency alarm buzzer (i.e. the Fault alarm buzzer is
	not automatically silenced when the Emergency alarm
	buzzer is activated).

7.4Delays to entering the voice alarm condition (option with requirements)

The VACIE may be provided with a facility to introduce a delay before entering the voice alarm condition. In this case:

athe operation of the delay shall be selectable at access level 3;

bthe operation of the delay shall be in increments not exceeding 1 min up to a maximum of 10 min;

cthe delay to one output signal shall not affect the delay to other outputs;

dit shall be possible to override the delay by a manual operation at access level 1;

ethere shall be provision to switch on and switch off delays by means of a manual operation at access level 2 (see Annex A for information on access levels);

Since the Praesideo system does not process the fire sensors, this functionality is better handled by the device managing the fire sensors (the CIE). The Praesideo system itself does not implement this requirement.

fthere may be provision to automatically switch on and/ or switch off delays by means of a programmable timer which shall be configurable at access level 3;

ga separate discrete light emitting indicator and/or a field on the alphanumeric display shall be visible when a fire signal is received and the delay activated. This indication shall be suppressed when the VACIE enters the voice alarm condition.

7.5Phased evacuation (option with requirements)

The VACIE may have a provision to phase the warning signals to the emergency loudspeaker zones. The facility shall be configurable at access level 3. There may be provision to switch on and switch off the phased evacuation sequence by means of a manual operation at access level 2 (see Annex A for information on access levels).

Praesideo is compliant.

Phased evacuation can be accomplished by phased triggering of input contacts that start the same voice alarm call in different zones. The device managing the fire sensors (CIE) is responsible for the phased triggering of the contacts. Voice alarm calls can also be started via the Open Interface, where the device managing the fire sensors (CIE) is responsible for the phased invocation of the necessary Open Interface methods.

The input contacts must be configured at access level 3. Using the Open Interface requires access level 2.

Praesideo also offers the possibility to start up to 5 calls simultaneously from a single input contact or key, configured as ‘Call activation key’ or ‘Start’, where phasing can be implemented using accurately defined periods of silence in the call macros, preceding the actual tone or message. The installer shall configure the calls correctly using these chimes/messages (at access level 3) and use call station keypad keys to switch on and off the chimes/ messages (at access level 2).

7.6 Silencing of the voice alarm condition	Praesideo is compliant.
7.6.1 Silencing of the voice alarm condition from the
CIE
7.6.1.1 Where the voice alarm condition has been triggered	Voice alarm calls triggered from the CIE can also be
from the CIE, the VACIE shall respond appropriately to a	stopped from the CIE. To reset the voice alarm condition an
silence instruction from the CIE.	Acknowledge Emergency and Reset Emergency action is
	required.
