SUMMING ALARM STATE (NON-LISTED)
Refer to Section 3.4.7 for a complete description of the Summing Alarm state.
Summing is a method for up to eight “like type” smoke detectors (e.g., photoelectric, ionization, photo/heat &
photo duct) to be grouped together to generate a fast alarm response to dispersed smoke. When a detector
is active with a summing alarm, the control panel does the following:
1. ALARM LED flashes.
2. Panel sounder pulses.
3. LED on active device will turn on (RED) to indicate its activated status. It will light its remote LED as
programmed, if connected.
4. System Alarm relay (P2) activates.
5. Associated system outputs (notification and control) will activate if programmed for specific Zone and
State of activated device.
6. Sends Summing Alarm message to remote displays, history buffer, printers, PC monitoring stations,
and DACT.
7. Displays Summing Alarm event on the LCD display as follows:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0

How to respond to a Summing Alarm Event:
1. Press the ACKNOWLEDGE button to silence the panel sounder only. The panel ALARM LED will
change from flashing to steady. The control panel will send an acknowledge message to remote
displays, history buffer, printers, and PC monitoring stations.
2. Press the F1 button to toggle Rows A and B on display to show the Panel-Loop-Address of active device.
3. Press the F2 button to toggle Rows C and D on display to show the extra 40 characters of the devices
custom message.
4. Investigate the cause of the Alarm and if a fire is present, follow the buildings emergency evacuation
procedures.
Proceed to next step only if it is determined that the event is a false Alarm.
5. Press the SILENCE button to silence the panel sounder and any activated outputs that are programmed
as silenceable. The panel ALARM LED will change from flashing to steady. The control panel will send a
silence message to remote displays, history buffer, printers, PC monitoring stations, and DACT.
6. Correct the condition causing the false Alarm; then press the system RESET button to clear the event
and return the panel to the Normal State. The control panel will send a SYSTEM NORMAL message to
remote displays, history buffer, printers, PC monitoring stations, and DACT.
