Introduction 151204 fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire. • Smoke detectors are subject to false alarms and nuisance alarms and may have been disconnected by users. For example, a smoke detector located in or near a kitchen may go into nuisance alarm during normal operation of kitchen appliances.

This section describes the four basic reporting formats of the SK-5208 and the codes that they send to a central station receiver. Of these four formats some of the formats offer a more specific selection for that format. For example, you can select a 3/1 format that requires a 1400 or 2300 Hz handshake, or SIA format that can handle 8 or 20 events per call.
Reporting 6.2 151204 Reporting Codes Table 6-2 list the events sent by the SK-5208 and the code that is sent for that event by the type of reporting format used. Note: Codes under in the SK4/2 and 3/1 1400 & 2300 column are the codes programmed for 3/1 reporting formats in Misc Reporting. See Section 4.2.10 for Misc. Reporting options and Table 6-3 for default 3/1 format reporting values.
