QuickZone false alarm management functions according to one of three different modes as described in EN54-2.
QuickZone supports mode A while Quickzone XL supports all three modes.
False alarm management can be selected for individual zones on both panels.
Mode A:
The first alarm is not indicated and the sounders do not activate. The panel resets and rechecks the zone within 15-30 seconds, if an alarm is detected the panel activates a full fire condition. Any new alarm from the same or a different zone within 30 minutes also activates a full fire condition.
Mode B:
The first alarm will indicate at the panel but the sounders do not activate. The panel resets and rechecks the zone within a programmable time period (1 – 4 minutes). If an alarm is detected the panel activates a full fire condition. Any new alarm from the same or a different zone within a second programmable time period of 5 to 30 minutes will also activate a full fire condition unless the reset button is pressed.
Mode C:
The first alarm will indicate at the panel but the sounders do not activate. The panel will not activate a full fire condition unless a second device is activated in the same or a different zone.
