6.0 FIRE ALARMS
Upon a fire alarm, the bell/siren will emit three “squawks” at
2 second intervals until silenced or reset by entering a valid
access code. If the zone is a Delayed Fire Zone, there is a
delay before the system contacts the Security Company.
This will prevent unnecessary reporting of false alarms. If
there is no fire condition, contact your Security Company
immediately to avoid an unnecessary response.
What do I do if a Delayed Fire Zone was set off
accidentally?
1) Press the [
CLEAR] button within 30 seconds of the alarm.
2) Try to correct the problem.
3) If the problem persists, the alarm will sound again. Press
[
CLEAR] again.
These steps will instruct the system to delay reporting the fire
alarm to the Security Company (see Figure 6-1 for details).
