SmartAlarm Alarm Annunciator / Monitor-3

All the programmable group relays can be set to have the re-flash facility. The means the first alarm to alarm in the group will change the state of the relay and any subsequent alarms within the same group will cause the relay to pulse for approximately 0.5 seconds. Complete Alarm Systems Audible Outputs First-Up Alarms The standard unit has a single integral audible. In addition two common relays can be programmed to drive external audible providing Critical, none critical audible discrimination. In alarm annunciation applications it is often essential to know which alarm occurred first in...
