8.0 Bell

The prompts in this group configure the Alarm Output (bell) at Terminals 4 and 5.

1 Bell Time

Default: 6

Selection: 0 to 255

The Bell Time prompt sets the minutes of alarm output at terminals 4 and 5. Both Fire Bell function (pulsed output) and the Burglary Bell function (steady output) follow the Bell Time duration.

Enter the number of minutes of alarm output at Terminals 4 and 5 for both Fire and Burglary (Non- Fire) functions. If you are using the Alarm on 2 Fail feature, program at least 3 minutes in Bell Time. Refer to below.

Check with your Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) to determine the appropriate Bell Time for your installation. Many communities restrict bell time.

2 Bell Time

Default:

No

 

 

Selection:

Yes, No

 

 

0

No

 

 

1

Yes

 

 

If you set the Bell Test prompt to Yes, the system sounds the bell for 2 seconds when users turn the system All On by pressing the [9] key.

If the system sends Closing Reports, the bell sounds when the receiver acknowledges the Closing Report. If the system does not send Closing Reports, the bell sounds at the expiration of Exit Delay.

3 Single Ring

Default:

No

 

 

Selection:

Yes, No

 

 

0

No

 

 

1

Yes

 

 

Set the Single Ring prompt to Yes to limit the alarm output from the same Non-Fire point to one per arming cycle. Setting this prompt to No allows every alarm activation from a Non-Fire point to generate an alarm output during an arming cycle.

Fire points always provide alarm output for every alarm activation. Single Ring only affects the alarm output. It does not prevent reports from being sent.

4 Alarm on 2 Fail

Default:

No

 

 

Selection:

Yes, No

 

 

0

No

 

 

1

Yes

 

 

Setting the Alarm on 2 Fail prompt to Yes provides an alarm output after two failed attempts to transmit an Alarm Report from any point when the system is on. Alarm output is provided even if the point is not programmed for alarm output. Bell Time must be programmed with at least 3 minutes to use the Alarm on 2 Fail feature.

Set this prompt to No if you want to prevent an alarm output from Silent points even when the system fails to communicate with the receiver.

Refer to Section 11.0 Point Codes for information on programming points for alarm output.
