Abort Function
Input modules may be assigned to the “Abort” function. The abort type is selected when
programming the releasing group. Failure of the abort switch to communicate with the fire panel will
automatically restart the agent release timer. When the abort input is activated, it puts the panel in
abort condition and turns the “Abort” LED to steady-ON. The following abort functions may be
assigned:
ULI Standard UL Type Delay Timer
If a monitor module is programmed for ULI, when it is activated the abort indicator will indicate
and the timer will continue to count down until it reaches 10 seconds. At that point, the timer
will stop as long as the abort switch is active. When the abort switch clears, the timer will
restart at 10 seconds.
IRI Type Delay Timer
The IRI type delay timer functions identical to the ULI timer except that the Abort timer will only
function if it is activated and held before the second activation of a cross zone.
NYC Type Delay Timer
If a module is programmed for NYC, when it is activated it will change to the timer value plus 90
seconds. The timer will not start as long as the abort switch is held.
AHJ Local Jurisdiction Delay Timer
Once the timer is started, activating this module will restore the timer to its full time. The timer will
not start as long as abort is held. Releasing the abort switch will start the timer. Re-activating it will
restore it to its full time.
Manual Release
Input modules will also have an input usage “Manual Release”. If an input module programmed for
Manual Release is activated, it will override all abort timers and automatically activate the releasing
circuit, putting the panel in discharge condition.
Trouble Conditions
In case of a trouble condition, the system trouble LED and any programmed trouble LEDs
activate (ON – pulsing), the LCD display identifies the problem, and the buzzer sounds
(pulsing). Refer to the applicable section of the system manual to determine the probable
cause of the trouble and the action to be taken.
When a trouble has been noted, the buzzer may be silenced by pressing the ACKNOWLEDGE
button. The trouble LEDs will change to ON - steady. If the trouble has not been corrected
when the trouble resound reminder expires, the trouble display reverts to its original condition
and the buzzer resounds (pulsing).
If the control panel is programmed for “trouble acknowledge required”, when the indicated
trouble condition has been cleared, the system reverts to standby condition only after the
ACKNOWLEDGE button is pressed.
Some trouble conditions are latching troubles that require a system reset to restore the
control panel to supervisory mode.
