EN54 & ISO 7240 2-8 Zone Conventional Fire Panel - Installation & Configuration Manual

7.6

Sounder Output Type/ Delay

The two sounder circuits and two optional relay circuits,
if fitted, are each configurable as one of the following:

a. Sounder output

b. Fire routing output

c. Fault output.

d. Local Alarm Output.

Up to two optional, 8-way Relay PCB(s) can be fitted.
Each PCB can be independently configured to provide
one of the following functions:

e. Repeat Zonal Output

f. Coincident Zonal Output

g. Repeat Zonal Output (zones 1-4) and Shop Interface

Outputs

h. Inputs and Shop Interface Outputs.

7.6.1

Select Output

Select Sounder 1, Sounder 2, or if the 2-way Relay PCB
is fitted, Relay 1 or Relay 2. The default selection is

Sounder 1. Press 

  to select another output.

7.6.2

Select Type

Having selected the appropriate output circuit now select
one of the following: Sounder, Fire Routing Output, Fault
output, Local Alarm Output or Pulsing Output. The default

type for Sounder circuits 1 and 2 is Sounder. Press 

to select an alternative type.

Notes:

1 The Local Alarm Output does not activate with non-

latched zones (assumes non-latched zones are from
external panels).

2 The pulsing option will activate the selected sounder/

relay outputs as follows: one second ON / one second
OFF.

7.6.3

Select Delay

These outputs can be configured as part of a strategy to
delay the operation of sounder and/ or fire routing outputs
during daytime operation.

Each sounder/ fire routing/ fault routing/ local alarm output
can be configured with a two-stage delay (see 

Section 7.8

Primary and Secondary Delays

). Once configured the

DELAY ON/OFF pushbutton must be pressed, or Digital
Input, to enable the delay to outputs. This panel state is
confirmed by the illumination of the DELAY ON LED and
DISABLEMENT LED (panel default).

EN54-2 : 8.8 & ISO 7240 : 9.8

Either a relay

1

 or a sounder

output

1 

may be configured

as a fault output.

1

These outputs are not monitored and
they should not be used as a fault routing
output (EN54-2: 8.9 and ISO 7240 : 9.9).

Sounder output types

‘sounder’ and ‘pulsed’ must

not be mixed on the same

installation to avoid

confusion of the

evacuation signal.
