4.2 Output Signals
The detector controls the following outputs:
Alarm relay
Accessory relay
Fault relay
4-20mA current output
RS-485 communication
The detector can be in one of the following states.
Normal: The detector is functioning normally.
BIT: The detector performs a Built-In-Test.
Warning: Fire detected - changed to warning – pre-alarm state.
Alarm: Fire detected - changed to fire alarm state.
Latched Alarm
(Optional)
The alarm outputs are latched due to the detection of a fire that
has already been extinguished.
Fault: A fault is detected during a BIT sequence or the power supply is
too low. In each state the detector will activate different outputs
as specified in table 6.

Note:
1. The video output can be activated continuously or only when a fire is detected,
according to programmable function. See Table 8
2. The Alarm state can be latched, according to programmable function
3. The detector will be in its BIT FAULT state until it has passed a successful BIT.
4. The alarm outputs will be activated as long as the alarm conditions are present
and will stop approximately 5 seconds after the fire is no longer detected.
