Gemini C-Series GEMC-NAC Extender Installation Instructions 3

Coded Alarms / Cadences by Zone

An initiating zone can be individually programmed, using PCD-Windows Quickloader, to activate one of thirty available

coded alarms/cadences on NAC circuits.

This feature is primarily used to assist in the identification of a particular area of a large facility, such as a hospital, where

a certain section of the hospital will sound a particular code during an alarm to allow people to select the correct egress
method or path. This feature can also be used to allow schools to prevent evacuations caused by inappropriate use of
pull stations. If a pull station is activated, a person with the authority to unlock the GEMC-FK1 Fire keypad (such as a
teacher) could quickly identify the location of the activated pull station and determine whether the alarm is warranted. If
not, the authorized person would silence the alarm.

Program as follows:

1. Open the

NAC/Output Assignment

screen, click the

NAC/Output Options

tab, then check the

Coded Alarms by

Zone

checkbox and the

Coded Alarm

column appears in the

Zone Assignment

screen (Ctrl + Shift + Z). Select a ca-

dence for each zone, as required.

2. Program at least one silence-able NAC output (typically all NAC outputs) for Enable Cadence (in the

NAC/Output As-

signment

screen, click the

NAC/Output Assignments

tab, then check the

Enable

checkbox for the selected output in

the

Cadence

column.

Note:

Each pulse (on-off) is in total 500mS. Each inter-digit duration is 750mS. Each inter-round duration is

1.5 seconds.

In the table below, each "1" = [250mS on, 250mS off]. Each "." = [250mS off].
