Inspection Delay
The Inspection Delay setting allows an optional delay period between
triggering a unit and the site wide alarm being raised. This can allow
time for the incident to be validated on site, and a decision to be made
to either
i) conrm alarm is genuine, raise site wide alarm and
evacuate site, or
ii) conrm false activation, cancel the alarm and return to
normal (non-alarm) state.
Default setting is 00 minutes (ie no delay), but can be set in 1 minute
increments up to a maximum 10 minutes. A conrmation screen will be
displayed to validate the setting and prevent accidental activation.

site alarm! Ok? Yes
Note that Inspection Delay can only be set during the initial activation
process. Once set, the Inspection Delay can only be changed by
turning off and reactivating the Emergency control unit. This will
clear any existing unit numbering and other network settings from the
network.

Basic System
Pre Alarm Mode
The Pre Alarm function denes site-wide behaviour of the network
during an Inspection Delay period.
With Pre Alarm mode enabled, the entire network will emit a site-wide,
intermittent sound and (on strobe-equipped call points) an intermittent
ash, to alert site personnel that a potential evacuation may be
imminent.
With Pre Alarm mode disabled, only the local call point which has been
triggered will sound. All other call points around site will remain in the
normal state of non-alarm.
Note that Pre Alarm can only be set during the initial activation
process. Once set, the Pre Alarm setting can only be changed by
turning off and reactivating the Emergency Control Unit. This will
clear any existing unit numbering and other network settings from the
network.
On completion of initial set up, settings for Inspection Delay and Pre
Alarm mode are displayed on the Emergency Control Unit home
screen. Check the settings displayed on screen are the desired
settings, and if not, repeat the Initial Emergency control unit Setup
process before proceeding.
