The FACP provides two types of dependency on more than one alarm signal in zone
setup. If a zone is set as Type A dependency, the alarm of a detector from this zone will
be reported as a pre-alarm, and only when there is another detector from the same zone
alarms, will the FACP report a fire alarm. If a zone is set as Type B dependency, the
alarm of a detector from this zone will be reported as a pre-alarm, and when there is
another detector alarm from any zone, the FACP will report a fire alarm. Please refer to
Section 6.3.1.2 for detailed setup method.
In different working mode, the disposal of the pre-alarm signal will be different.
5.3.2.1 Disposal of Pre-alarm Message in Night Mode
In night mode, if a zone is set as Type A dependency, the pre-alarm will be delayed for
30 minutes. If it’s set as Type B dependency, the pre-alarm will be delayed for 5 minutes.
During the delay period,
If the condition for dependency is not met, the pre-alarm will be automatically
cancelled.
If the condition is met, the pre-alarm will automatically change to a fire alarm.
5.3.2.2 Disposal of Pre-alarm Message in Day Mode
In day mode, if a pre-alarm comes, the screen will display the delay time Stage 1 for
acknowledgement of the pre-alarm. Pressing
ACK
, the FACP will enter the delay time
Stage 2 for verifying if it’s a true fire alarm.
During the delay period,
If the condition for dependency is met, the pre-alarm will automatically change to a
fire alarm.
If the condition is not met, the pre-alarm will automatically change to a fire alarm after
the delay period expires.
If
ACK
key is pressed again or if the manual call point of the same zone is pressed to
manually verifying the fire alarm, the pre-alarm will also automatically change to a
fire alarm.
