PREMIER SX USER MANUAL, MAINTENANCE GUIDE & LOG BOOK 7. DISABLEMENTS 7.1 REASONS FOR DISABLING CERTAIN PARTS OF A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM. Certain parts of this Fire Alarm Panel can be temporarily disabled (i.e. switched off) to suit prevailing conditions. For example, if there is a risk of a False Alarm in a zone, for example, from vehicle exhaust smoke in a loading bay, it is possible for the user to disable that zone during the risk period and then enable it again afterwards.
PREMIER SX USER MANUAL, MAINTENANCE GUIDE & LOG BOOK 8. USING SOUNDER DELAYS 8.1 WHAT IS A SOUNDER DELAY In certain circumstances it may be desirable to have a delay between the panel detecting a fire, and starting its external sounders, to allow the responsible person to check the cause of the alarm, to stop building evacuation by an obvious false alarm. If the cause of the Alarm is found to be a true fire hazard, the Delay can be overridden and the Alarm Sounders activated immediately.
