In Attended Mode an alarm from a smoke detector in a zone configured
for AIF will be treated as an AIF alarm (see

then the AIF delay is cancelled and both alarms are treated as ordinary
alarms.
Alarms from MCPs and most other detector types will not be configured
for AIF, and transmission of these alarms to the brigade will not be

MX1

alarms to the brigade is not delayed.
