Zone Sounds & Timing

FIELD

TITLE and EXPLANATION

*31

Single Alarm Sounding Per Zone

Select whether or not the system limits alarm sounding to once per arming period for a given zone.

VISTA-10PSIA:

If “0” selected, “alarm sounding per zone” will be the same as the “number of reports

in armed period” set in field *93 (1 if one report, 2 if 2 reports, unlimited for zones in zone list 7).

*32

Fire Alarm Sounder Timeout

Select whether or not alarm sounding continues until manually turned off (ignores sounder timeout). If
not selected, sounding stops at timeout programmed in

∗

33.

This control complies with NFPA requirements for temporal pulse sounding of fire notification
appliances. Temporal pulse sounding for a fire alarm consists of the following:
3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses – pause – 3 pulses. UL fire alarm installations: must be 1.

*33

Alarm Sounder Timeout

Enter the desired alarm sounding time. Entering “0” lets sounding continue until manually turned off.
UL installations: For residential fire alarm installation, must be set for a minimum of 4 min (option 1);
for UL Commercial Burglary installations, must be minimum of 16 min (option 4).

*34

Exit Delay

Enter the desired time the system waits before arming entry/exit zones. If the entry/exit door is left
open after this time expires, an alarm will occur.
UL installations: For UL Commercial Burglar Alarm (Grade AA) and UL Residential Burglar Alarm
installations with line security, total exit time must not exceed 60 seconds. For UL Burglar Alarm
installations without line security (Grade A), total exit time must not exceed 120 seconds.
SIA Guidelines: minimum exit delay is 45 seconds

VISTA-10PSIA:

45 - 96 = 45 - 96 secs; 97 = 120 secs

NOTE: Entries less than 45 will result in a 45-sec delay.

*35

Entry Delay 1

Enter the desired time within which the system must be disarmed after opening an entry door. If this
time expires without disarming, an alarm occurs.
UL installations: For UL Residential Burglary Alarm installations, must be set for a maximum of 30
seconds; entry delay plus dial delay should not exceed 1 min. For UL Commercial Burglar Alarm, total
entry delay may not exceed 45 seconds. SIA Guidelines: minimum entry delay is 30 seconds

VISTA-10PSIA:

30-96 = 30 - 96 secs; 97 = 120 secs; 98 = 180 secs; 99 = 240 secs

NOTE: Entries less than 30 will result in a 30-sec delay.

*36

Entry Delay 2

Use this entry for a secondary entry door. See *35 above for explanation.

*37

Audible Exit Warning

Select whether or not you want exit warning sounds, which consist of slow continuous beeps until the
last 10 seconds, then it changes to fast beeps. Sound ends when exit time expires.
SIA Guidelines: must be enabled (enter 1)

VISTA-10PSIA:

Feature always enabled; field does not exist.

*38

Confirmation Of Arming Ding

Select whether and when you want a confirmation of arming “ding” (1/2 second external sounder “ding”).
If “1” selected, ding occurs when closing report is sent, or at the end of Exit Delay.
If “2” selected, ding occurs upon reception of the wireless arming command.
UL installations: must be “1” for UL Commercial Burglar Alarm installations.

*39

Power-Up In Previous State

Select whether or not the system powers up in its previous state (if the system powers up armed and a
zone is faulted, an alarm will occur 1 minute after power up). Note that if the previous state was armed
Away or Stay, the system will not respond to sensor changes for 1 minute, which allows time for
sensors such as PIRs to stabilize.
UL installations: must be 1 (power-up in previous state); SIA Guidelines: must be 1 (power-up in
previous state)

VISTA-10PSIA:

Feature must be enabled.
