When YES is selected, the programming for the zone terminates and the display returns to
ZONE NO: - allowing you to enter a new zone number. To make changes to the Alarm Action
for a zone, answer the NEXT ZONE? prompt with NO. The Alarm Action is then defined in
the following sections.

ALARM ACTION . . . .
Alarm Action
The Alarm Action section allows you to change or confirm the default alarm characteristics of a
zone type.
The Fire Verify zone type functions the same as Fire zone with the following exceptions: When a
Fire Verify zone is placed into shorted condition, the panel performs a Sensor Reset and does not
send a report. If any Fire Verify or Fire zone initiates an alarm within 120 seconds after the reset,
an alarm is indicated. If an alarm is initiated after 120 seconds, the cycle repeats. If no other Fire
Verify or Fire zone is alarmed within 120 seconds, a zone fault report is sent to the receiver.
