6.1 OUTPUT OPTIONS Output Options
This function allows you to program the panel Bell Output functions and certain Output options
for the Form C relays and annunciator outputs. Form C relay outputs are available on the panel
6-position terminal strip. Annunciator outputs (open collector) are available by using the 4-wire
output header on the PFC-7500/PFC-7501 board. Refer to the PFC-7500/PFC-7501 Installation
Manual (Stk# 8910227) for complete information. A description of each output option follows:
6.2 BELL CUTOFF: 15 Bell Cutoff Time
Enter the maximum time the Bell Output remains on. If the Bell Output is manually silenced
or the system is disarmed, the cutoff time resets. The Bell Cutoff Time can be from 1 to 15
minutes. Enter 0 (zero) to provide continuous bell output.
6.3 BELL ACTION . . . . . Bell Action
This defines the type of Bell Output for zone alarms. Trouble conditions do not activate the
Bell Output. There are four bell actions you can program for Bell Output: To provide a steady
Bell Output, enter S. For a pulsed output, enter P. For Temporal Code 3, enter T. For California
School Code, enter C. For no Bell Output, enter N. Below is a list of the bell action for three of
the zone types:
6.3.1 FIRE TYPE: P Fire
Defines Bell Action for Fire and Fire Verify Type Zones
6.3.2 SUPRVSRY TYPE: N Supervisory
Defines Bell Action for Supervisory Type Zones
6.3.3 AUXLRY I TYPE: N Auxiliary
Defines Bell Action for Auxiliary 1 Type Zones
6.4 OUTPUT ACTION . . . Output Action
This option allows you to define the operation of the panel outputs.
6.4.1 CO OUTS: - - - - Cutoff Outputs
Any or all of the available outputs can be programmed here to turn off after the time specified
in OUTPUT CUTOFF TIME. See the Output Cutoff Time section. To disable this option,
press any Select key to clear the display of output numbers and then press COMMAND.
6.4.2 CUTOFF TIME: 0 Output Cutoff Time
If a Cutoff Output is assigned, enter a Cutoff Time of up to 15 minutes for the output to remain
on. If the output is turned off manually, the Cut off Time resets. The Cutoff Time can be from 1
to 15 minutes.
Enter 0 (zero) to provide continuous output.
The Cutoff Timer is shared by all outputs. If a second output trips, the timer is not reset. Both
outputs turn off when the original time expires.
6.4.3 COM FAIL OUT: 0 Communication Failure Output
This output is turned on when a DD system fails to communicate with the receiver after ten
successive dial attempts.
Enter 0 (zero) to disable this output.
