 Before You Begin

Introduction The 4010 is best used in small to medium size buildings up to 6 stories. Some
of the best uses for the 4010 are:

• K - 12 educational facilities
• Nursing homes and small hospitals
• Board and care facilities
• Inns, motels and small hotels
• Assisted living
• Apartments and condominiums
• Office buildings
• Strip malls

Even in these situations, however, job-specific details (a large number of fan

dampers, for example) combined with complex, job-specific application needs
may push the 4010 beyond its practical limits. Before beginning, therefore, it is
important to know the 4010’s Custom Control capacities, understand the
installation details of the facility, and understand the role of the 4010’s point
types and system options.

Custom Control Capacities The 4010 programming capacities are as follows:

• Up to 75 User Pseudo Points (P76 – P150)

• Up to 25 User List Points (L26 – L50)
• Up to 60 Custom Control Equations (Phase 2 systems)
• Up to 40 Custom Control Equations (Phase 1 systems)

Understand the Details of the Judging whether the 4010 can meet the application requirements of a job
Intended Application requires a detailed understanding of the facilities’ devices (both fire and utility),
as well as an understanding of exactly how the customer and the AHJ expect the
system to function.

In general, the following guidelines can help you determine whether the 4010
can handle the application-specific needs of a facility.

• Situations requiring extensive fan/damper control (i.e., multiple smoke

chambers and a very large number of dampers) are not good candidates for
the 4010.

Understand the Built-in The 4010 System Options, Point Types, and Modes provide default fire alarm
Functionality Provided by system operation for common fire alarm system applications without the need
System Options and Point for writing more complex Custom Control programming equations. Whenever
Types possible System Options, Point Types, and Modes should be used in lieu of
Custom Control to provide the required operation. Custom Control
programming is available to provide additional flexibility and to meet job-
specific requirements.

 QuickAlert Class A / Class B Guidelines

Overview The term QuickAlert with SmartSync operation refers to a family of Simplex
A/V and VO notification appliances that allow both horns and the synchronized
strobes to work independently on a two-wire notification appliance circuit. The
strobes operate in an “On until Reset” mode and the horns operate in an “On
until Silence” mode. All references to QuickAlert in this document are in
regards to QuickAlert with SmartSync operation.

When programming QuickAlert with SmartSync operation, you must be aware

of the following requirements and differences between Class A and Class B
applications.

Class A QuickAlert Class A QuickAlert with SmartSync operation depends on the following:

• All strobes must be Simplex synchronized VO, not free run. All A/Vs,
must be QuickAlert SmartSync compatible. Other manufacturer’s
appliances are not compatible on a SmartSync, two-wire circuit.

• A 4905-9938 SmartSync Control Module (SCM) is required for all

Class A QuickAlert Applications. The SCM must be mounted within
20 feet of the control panel and all wiring must be in metal conduit.
Refer to 4010 Field Wiring Drawings (841-058) and the 4905-9938
QuickAlert Sync Control Module Installation Instructions (574-719)
for specific installation instructions. (Note: 4010-9806 Class A
Adapter module is not required for Class A QuickAlert.)

• Each SCM requires a Notification Appliance Circuit designated as the

loading circuit. This circuit handles all power consumption of the VO
and A/V appliances connected to the NAC output of the SCM.

• For Multi-sync operation, one Notification Appliance Circuit must also

be designated as the Horn Control Notification Appliance Circuit. This
allows for the interconnection of multiple SCM’s configured in a
Master/Slave configuration to synchronize the QuickAlert devices.

• In the 4010 panel, for QuickAlert with Multi-sync applications, there

would only be three circuits available for the “loading” Notification
Appliance Circuits and one available for the “Horn Control”
Notification Appliance Circuit. (4009 IDNet can be added if
additional signals are required.)

• For a General Alarm operation, the “loading” NAC must use a point
type of RSIGNAL (Off on Reset) while the “Horn Control” NAC must
use a point type of SSIGNAL (Off on Silence).

• QuickAlert Horn operation (Slow March Time, Steady or Temporal) is

set by a dip switch on the SCM.

 QuickAlert Class A / Class B Guidelines, Continued

Class B QuickAlert Class B QuickAlert with SmartSync operation depends on the following factors:

• All strobes must be Simplex synchronized VO, not free run. All
A/V’s, must be QuickAlert SmartSync compatible. Other
manufacturer’s appliances are not compatible on a QuickAlert
SmartSync two-wire circuit.

• The QuickAlert with SmartSync notification appliance circuits connect

directly to the 4010 notification appliance circuits terminals. The
4905-9938 SmartSync Control Module is not required.

• For General Alarm operation, the point type SQALERT must be

utilized, which will provide the QuickAlert Horns to be controlled “Off
on Silence” and the Visuals to be controlled “Off on Reset.” For any
selective signal operation, the point type QALERT (no default
operation) must be utilized and all operations must programmed in
Custom Control.

• QuickAlert Horn operation (Slow March Time, Steady or Temporal) is

selected in the System Options, Signal Operation, under QuickAlert
Horn.

 Chapter 2
Selective Signaling Applications

Overview Selective signaling replaces the system’s general alarm NAC operation – which
activates all NACs in response to any alarm condition – with selective NAC
control. This type of control allows you to program the system so that only
specific NACs respond to specific initiating devices.

In this Chapter Refer to the following page for specific information on a topic.

 Selective Signaling by Floor

Overview Selective Signaling by Floor limits the activation of NACs to the floor on which
an activated initiating device(s) is located. When activated, audible NAC
appliances sound a temporal code until Alarm Silence, and visible NAC
appliances flash until System Reset.

In Figure 2-1, for example, an activated initiating device on Floor 2 triggers only
the NACs located on Floor 2.

Figure 2-1. Selective Signaling by Floor

Step 1. Define NAC’s Device The NACs used with the Selective Signaling by Floor application can be either
Type, Point Type, and Custom the NACs located on the panel’s SFIO board or NACs located on a 4009 IDNet
Label NAC Extender.

Use the PC Programmer to program the NACs with the device types and point
types listed in Table 2-1. When defining custom labels make sure to use
descriptive labels, such as “Floor1-Visual-Circuit.”

If necessary, refer to Chapter 7, Programming Points, of the 4010 PC

Programmer Installation and Programming Instructions (574-187) for
information on using the PC Programmer to edit a point’s device type, point
type, and custom label.

For QuickAlert applications, refer to “QuickAlert Class A / Class B Guidelines”

in Chapter 1.

NAC Use for either of the following:
Point
Type - Standard, non-QuickAlert (Class A or
B) NAC appliances requiring Custom
SIGNAL
Control (selective signaling).
- Class A QuickAlert devices requiring
Custom Control (selective signaling).

Step 2. Assign Device Types, Each initiating device must be programmed with a device type and point type.
Point Types, and Custom Refer to “Programming Points,” located in Chapter 7 of the 4010 PC
Labels to Initiating Devices Programmer Installation and Programming Instructions, for information on
programming an initiating device’s device type and point type. Refer to “Point
Types” in Appendix A of this manual for detailed descriptions of the initiating
device point types.

Step 3. Add Appropriate Skip this step if you are using Class B QuickAlert NACs. Use the PC

• Standard (non-QuickAlert) Visible NACs.

• Class B QuickAlert NACs.
• The Class A QuickAlert NACs wired to the “NAC IN” input of the SCM.
Note: Assign the Class A QuickAlert Horn Control NAC to List L6, as
described in “Step 3. Add Appropriate NACs to List L6 (Off on Silence)”
above.

Step 5. Add Floor’s Initiating Adding each floor’s initiating devices to a separate user-defined list limits the
Devices to a User-Defined List number of Custom Control equations that must be written to perform Selective
Signaling by Floor. To add these devices to a list, use the PC Programmer’s List
Tab, adding each floor’s initiating devices to one of the available user-defined
lists (L26 through L50).

Step 6. Add Custom Control This section describes programming the Selective Signaling by Floor application
Equations using either standard NAC appliances or Class A/Class B QuickAlert NAC
applicances. Refer to the applicable section below for specific information.

Standard NAC Example. The following example, shown in Figure 2-2,

illustrates how to implement Selective Signaling by Floor using standard NAC
appliances.

• Equation 1. The input side of this equation monitors the FIRE DETECT
state of list L26, which is a user-defined list containing all initiating devices
for Floor 1.

The first output statement programs the floor’s audible NACs to emit a
temporal signal when any point within list L26 enters an ALARM
condition. Because the audible NACs were added to the Control Points –
Off on Silence list, they stop sounding when an Alarm Silence occurs.

The second output statement programs the floor’s visible NACs to activate
when any point within list L26 enters an ALARM condition. Because the
visible NACs were added to the Control Points – Off on Reset list (L7),
they stop flashing when a System Reset occurs.

• Equation 2. The input side of this equation monitors the FIRE DETECT
state of list L27, which is a user-defined list containing all initiating devices
for Floor 2.

The first output statement programs the floor’s audible NACs to emit a
temporal signal when any point within list L27 enters an ALARM
condition. Because the audible NACs were added to the Control Points –
Off on Silence list, they stop sounding when an Alarm Silence occurs.

The second output statement programs the floor’s visible NACs to activate
when any point within list L27 enters an ALARM condition. Because the
visible NACs were added to the Control Points – Off on Reset list (L7),
they stop flashing when a System Reset occurs.

NACs to operate when any point within list L27 enters an ALARM
condition.

Important Note: Use HOLD ON for Class A QuickAlert devices; use

HOLD TEMPORAL for Class B QuickAlert devices.

• Equation 3. The input side of Equation 3 monitors the ON state of P26,

which is the Alarm Silence Activated system pseudo point. The first output
statement in this equation turns the QuickAlert horns OFF (using the Horn
OFF opcode) when P26 is ON (i.e., following an Alarm Silence). The
second output statement in this equation resets P26 to its OFF state.

Important Notes:

- The HORN OFF opcode is used for Class B QuickAlert applications.

This equation is not required for Class A QuickAlert applications.
- Resetting P26 is very important; do not leave this out.

multiple signal paths, allowing circuit
operation to continue if a single open
SIGA circuit occurs. This device type requires
installation of a Class A NAC adapter
NAC card. Important Note: Do not use this
Device device type for Class A QuickAlert
Type applications.
Use for the following:
- Standard (non-QuickAlert) Class B
SIGB NAC.
- QuickAlert Class B NAC.
- QuickAlert Class A NAC.

Use only for Class B QuickAlert NACs.

This point type allows you to control

NAC Use for either of the following:
Point
Type - Standard, non-QuickAlert (Class A or
B) NAC appliances requiring Custom
SIGNAL
Control (selective signaling).
- Class A QuickAlert devices requiring
Custom Control (selective signaling).

Step 2. Assign Device Types, Each initiating device must be programmed with a device type and point type.

Note: Assign the Class A QuickAlert Horn Control NAC to List L6, as
described in “Step 3. Add Appropriate NACs to List L6 (Off on Silence)”
above.

Step 5. Add Area’s Initiating Adding the area’s initiating devices to a list limits the number of Custom
Devices to a User-Defined List Control equations that must be written to perform Selective Signaling by Area.
To add these devices to a list, use the PC Programmer’s List Tab, adding each of
the area’s initiating device to one of the available user-defined lists (L26 through
L50). Naming a list (AREA1-INITIATING DEVICES, for example) is done via
the Card Tab and cannot be done through the List Tab.

Step 6. Add Custom Control This section describes programming the Selective Signaling by Area application
Equations using either standard NAC appliances or Class A/Class B QuickAlert NAC
applicances. Refer to the applicable section below for specific information.

Standard NAC Example. The following example, shown in Figure 2-5,

illustrates how to implement Selective Signaling by Area using standard NAC
appliances. The example uses two areas.

• Equation 1. The input side of this equation monitors the FIRE DETECT
state of list L26, which is a user-defined list containing all initiating devices
for Area 1.

The first output statement in Equation 1 programs Area 1’s audible NACs
to sound a temporal signal when any point within list L26 enters an
ALARM condition. Because the audible NACs were added to the Control
Points – Off on Silence list, they stop sounding when an Alarm Silence
occurs.

The second output statement in Equation 1 programs the visible NACs to

flash when any point within L26 enters an ALARM condition. Because the
visible NACs were added to the Control Points – Off on Reset list (Step 4
above), they stop flashing when a System Reset is performed.

• Equation 2. The input side of this equation monitors the FIRE DETECT
state of list L27, which is a user-defined list containing all initiating devices
for Area 2.

The first output statement in Equation 2 programs Area 2’s audible NACs
to sound a temporal signal when any point within list L27 enters an
ALARM condition. Because the audible NACs were added to the Control
Points – Off on Silence (Step 3 above), they stop sounding when an Alarm
Silence occurs.

shown in Figure 2-6, illustrates how to implement Selective Signaling by Area
for a building that uses QuickAlert notification appliances. Only a single area is
shown in the example. To program selective NAC control for additional areas,
copy these equations, substituting another area’s initiating devices and NAC
appliances.

• Equation 1. The input side of this equation monitors the FIRE DETECT
state of list L26, which is a user-defined list containing all initiating devices
for Area 1.

The output side of Equation 1 programs the Area’s QuickAlert NACs to

operate when any point within list L26 enters an ALARM condition.

Important Note: Use HOLD ON for Class A QuickAlert applications;

use HOLD TEMPORAL for Class B QuickAlert applications.

• Equation 2. The input side of Equation 2 monitors the ON state of P26,

which is the Alarm Silence Activated system pseudo point.

The first output statement in this equation turns the QuickAlert horns OFF
(using the Horn OFF opcode) when P26 is ON (i.e., following an Alarm
Silence).

The second output statement in this equation resets the P26 pseudo point to
its OFF state.

Note: Resetting P26 is very important; do not leave this out.

 Selective Bypass of NAC/Relay Circuits

Overview The Selective Bypass of NAC/Relay Circuits application allows a 24 Point I/O
switch to override the automatic operation of NACs and door holder relays (i.e.,
horns/strobes do not automatically turn ON and doors do not close when an
alarm condition occurs). This application also causes a Trouble to appear at the
panel to indicate that the bypass switch is active.

Step 1. Define Switch Use the PC Programmer application to program the following switch attributes.
Attributes
• Device Type. Select the GRAPHIN device type, which indicates that the
device being programmed is a 24 Point I/O switch.
• Point Type. Any of the following switch point types can be used.
- OSWITCH. Specifies a two-position switch, supervised for open
circuits. Requires an EOL resistor.
- SSWITCH. Specifies a two-position switch, supervised for open and
short circuits. Requires EOL and current limited (up leg) resistors.
- TSWITCH. Three position (SPDT) switch, supervised for open
circuits. Requires EOL and current limited resistors.
- USWITCH. Two-position switch, unsupervised. Assumes that no
EOL or current limited resistor is used.
• Mode. Select the ONOFF mode. This mode allows one position of the
switch to represent the ON state and another position to represent the OFF
state. Refer to Table 2-4 for information on which switch position is
equivalent to ON or OFF.
• Reference Address. Select a user-defined digital pseudo point. A
Custom Control equation will monitor this point to determine if the signals
should be bypassed or not.

Step 2. Define Digital Pseudo Define the attributes of the digital pseudo point used as the Reference Address
Point Attributes in Step 1 above as follows:

• Point Type. Define the point type of the digital pseudo point as
TROUBLE. This programs the system to display a system trouble if the
switch is active (ON).

• Custom Label. Use a descriptive name such as “3RD-FLOOR-DOORS

& SIGNALS BYPASS TROUBLE.”

Step 3. Add the Floor’s Add the initiating devices for the floor or area that you want to bypass to a list.
Initiating Devices to a List Doing this limits the number of Custom Control equations required. To add a
floor’s initiating devices to a list, use the PC Programmer’s List Tab.

Step 4. Change the Point Use the PC Programmer to program the NACs and Door Holder relays with the
Type of NACs and Door following point types. (Do not program the door holders with a door holder
Relays point type such as DHOLDER. Door holder point types are used to specify the
automatic operation of the relay, not its custom operation.) When defining
custom labels, make sure to use descriptive labels, such as “FLR-1 AUDIBLE-
NAC.”

Type of Device Point Type Required

Step 5. Add the NACs and Add the NACs and Door Relays that you want to bypass to a list. Doing this
Door Relays to a List allows the Custom Control equation to refer to the floor’s entire set of NACs
and Relays as a single point. This limits the number of equations required to
implement the bypass function.

Step 6. Add Appropriate Use the PC Programmer’s List Tab to add the following to List L6 (Control

QuickAlert NACs. Refer to the appropriate section below.

Standard NACs. The first two input statements, separated by the AND
operator, check whether there is an activated initiating device and whether the
bypass switch (monitored by pseudo P76) is active. The NACs activate when
the following conditions are both true, and do not activate if either is false.

• List L26 contains an activated initiating device (i.e., a smoke detector in

alarm).
• P76 is NOT in its ON/CODING state (i.e., the NACs activate if the switch
is not active).

Figure 2-9. Selective Bypass of NACs, Standard NAC Example

QuickAlert NACs. Figure 2-10 shows how to implement the selective bypass
application with Class A or Class B QuickAlert NACs. As with the Standard
NACs example, the first two input statements check whether there is an
activated initiating device and whether the bypass switch (monitored by pseudo
P76) is active.

The NACs activate when the following conditions are both true, and do not
activate if either is false. Use HOLD TEMPORAL for Class B QuickAlert
NACs; use HOLD ON for Class A QuickAlert NACs.

 Selective Activation of Single Station Devices

Introduction Single station smoke detectors -- typically used in hotel rooms, dormitories, and
hospital rooms -- contain their own sounder. When activated, only the sounder
on the activated device signals the presence of an alarm condition. This
application describes programming the 4010 so that when a manual pull station
activates, all single station devices in the area also activate.

Step 1. Define Device Types, Use the PC Programmer’s Point tab to program each Single Station Device with
Point Types, and Mode for the following attributes:
Single Station Devices
• Device Type. A single station device can use any one of the following
device types:

- SPHOTO designates that a photoelectric sensor is attached to a

separate sounder base.
- XSPHOTO indicates that a photoelectric sensor is mounted to a
separate sounder base and that the system is using a more sensitive
smoke-detection algorithm. (.2% sensitivity to smoke not .5%.).
- QSPHOTO is a quick connect photoelectric sensor/sounder base
combination in which the sensor cannot be removed from the base.
- SHEAT is a heat detector attached to a separate sounder base.
- SION indicates that an ionization detector is mounted to a separate
sounder base.
- SOHEAT is a rate of rise heat detector mounted to a separate sounder
base.

• Point Type. Any of the standard point types may be used, including
DUCT, GVMON, SDUCT, SMOKE, UTIL, VSMOKE. Refer to Appendix
A of this manual for the function of these point types.

• Mode. The default mode setting for a TrueAlarm device equipped with
sounder is SSTATION (Single Station), which is required to support single
station operation.

To check whether this mode is enabled, you need to select the PC

Programmer’s Card Tab and view the IDNet card. The Mode field is on the
far right of the device’s point information. (Note: Mode does not appear
in the Point Tab.)

Step 2. Add Area’s Pull Adding each area’s pull stations to a separate list limits the number of Custom
Stations to a User-Defined Control equations required to implement this application. To add an area’s pull
List stations to a list, use the PC Programmer’s List Tab.

Step 3. Add Custom Control Programming selective activation of single station devices requires two
Equations equations, as shown in Figure 2-11.

 Selective Activation of Single Station Devices, Continued

Step 3. Add Custom Control Equation 1. This equation uses a single input qualifier to monitor List L26,
Equations (continued) which contains all of Floor 1’s pull stations. If any pull station within this list
activates, this equation’s output qualifiers execute. The first output qualifier
programs the tone used by the single station sounders when they activate. The
second output qualifier turns on the sounders in the area of the activated pull
station.

Note: You cannot put single station devices in a list; each device must be
separately listed in the Custom Control program, as shown in Figure 2-11.

Equation 2. The input qualifier used in this equation monitors the state of P26,
which is ON if an Alarm Silence has been performed. The output qualifiers
only execute when P26 is ON (i.e., following Alarm Silence). The first output
qualifier, Device Code OFF, turns off the sounders on the single station devices.
The second output qualifier resets the state of P26.

Note: Resetting P26 is very important. Do not leave this step out.

Suppression Release

Overview This chapter describes the 4010 programming required for common
suppression-release applications.

Basic applications, which do not involve pre-signaling or an abort switch with

delay, can be programmed without Custom Control using a mix of the 4010’s
built-in system options, point types, and lists. More complex applications,
involving pre-signaling or an abort switch with delay, require Custom Control
programming.

Before continuing, make sure that you have the following information:

• Fire Alarm STRM Ref. number SEB-FAS0899-01. This STRM contains

critical information concerning UL, FM, and IRI suppression requirements.
• Field Wiring Diagram 842-058.

 Default Suppression Release Applications

Suppression Release The application described in this section is used in situations that require the
Triggered by Single Pull release of the suppression agent immediately (or slightly delayed by a timer)
Station or Automatic Initiating after alarm activation. A typical use is for a fueling station equipped with a
Device manual release station and flame detectors. An important point to note with this
application is that it does not use either an abort switch or a NAC pre-signal that
indicates imminent release of the agent.

As shown in Figure 3-1, activation of a single initiating device – typically a

manual release station or an automatic initiating device such as a flame detector
– triggers a Suppression Release Delay Timer. This optional delay timer, which
is a system option having a range of zero to 30 seconds for a manual release
station or zero to 60 seconds for an automatic initiating device, delays the
activation of the NAC signals and prevents suppression dump. When the timer
expires, both of these actions – NAC signal activation and suppression dump –
occur. (Important Note: If the delay timer is not selected, both NAC signal
activation and the release of the agent immediately follow alarm activation.)

As shown in Figure 3-2, activation of the second automatic initiating device

triggers an optional timer, which has a range of 0-60 seconds for an automatic
initiating device. When this timer expires, the discharge signals sound and the
solenoid activates, releasing the suppression agent. As with the previous
application, it is important point to note that this application does not include
either an abort switch or pre-signal.

 Dual Detector, Pre-Signal, and Abort Switch with No Delay

Introduction The application described in this section provides the following suppression
operation.

• Activation of the suppression release system occurs when either two

automatic initiating devices (detectors) or a single manual release point
(pull station) are activated. Release of the suppression agent can be delayed
for up to 60 seconds after the second automatic initiating device activates
and for up to 30 seconds after a pull station activates. These delays are
configurable via system options.

• At any time prior to the actual release of the agent, an operator can prevent
the release of the suppression agent by pressing an abort switch. Release of
the suppression agent is prevented for the duration of time this switch is
held. Release of the suppression agent occurs immediately after release of
the abort switch, assuming the timers discussed in the previous bullet have
expired. Operators should be made aware that if the alarm is false, clearing
the alarm condition and resetting the system prior to releasing the switch
prevents agent discharge.

• NAC appliances operate in a slightly different manner depending on

whether the activated device is an automatic initiating device or a pull
station.

- Automatic Initiating Devices. When the first automatic initiating

device activates, the NACs in the suppression release area sound a
pre-signal (Slow March Time). When a second automatic initiating
device activates, this tone converts to a Fast March Time tone. At the
time of agent discharge, the tones convert to Steady, indicating that the
agent has been released.

- Manual Release Point (pull station). When a manual release point

activates, the NACs in the suppression area sound a Fast March Tone.
At the time of agent discharge, the tone converts to a Steady tone,
indicating that the agent has been released.

Figure 3-3 shows a timeline for this application. First stage signals activate
following the first stage alarm condition (which is always an automatic initiating
device). Second stage signals activate following the activation of either a
second automatic initiating device or following activation of a manual release
station. The second alarm condition (or the manual pull station) also triggers the
optional release timer, if used. This timer ranges from 0-30 seconds for a
manual release station and 0-60 seconds for an automatic initiating device.
Suppression is delayed until the release timer expires or the abort switch is
released, at which time the signals convert to a discharge tone and the solenoid
activates.

initiating devices. The output side of Equation 1 programs the NAC
appliances to sound in SLOW MARCH TIME when any point within list
L9 enters an ALARM condition.

• Equation 2. The input side of Equation 2 monitors L9 (suppression-

related automatic initiating devices) and L10 (suppression-related manual
release points). If there is an activated device in either list, the output side
of the equation executes, activating the NAC appliances in FAST MARCH
TIME.

• Equation 3. The input side of Equation 3 monitors the suppression release

output points contained in system list L12. If any of the points in this list
are ON/CODING, the NACs are held ON, indicating that the suppression
agent has been released.

 Dual Detector, Pre-Signal, and Abort Switch with Delay

Introduction The application described in this section operates in the following way.
Figure 3-5 shows a timeline for this application.

• Activation of the suppression release system occurs when either two

automatic initiating devices (detectors) or a single manual release point
(pull station) are activated. Release of the suppression agent is delayed for
30 seconds after the second automatic initiating device activates and for five
seconds after a pull station activates.
• At any time prior to the actual release of the suppression agent, an operator
can prevent the release by pressing an abort switch. Agent release is
prevented for the duration of time this switch is held. If the condition that
triggered the alarm is cleared (i.e., the detectors or pull station are reset)
and a System Reset is performed, release of the suppression agent does not
occur. If however, the abort switch is released and the condition that
triggered the alarm is still present, a 10-second Abort Switch timer starts.
After the timer expires, release of the agent occurs.
• NAC appliances operate in a slightly different manner depending on
whether the activated device is an automatic or a pull station.
- Automatic Initiating Devices. When the first automatic initiating
device activates, the NACs in the suppression release area sound a
pre-signal (Slow March Time). When a second automatic initiating
device activates, this tone converts to Fast March Time. At the time of
agent discharge, the tones convert to Steady, indicating that the agent
has been released.
- Manual Release Point (pull station). When a manual release point
activates, the NACs in the suppression area sound a Fast March Tone.
At the time of agent discharge, the tone converts to a Steady tone,
indicating that the agent has been released.

Define Lists, Digital Pseudos, The dual detector, pre-signal, and abort switch with delay application requires
and Analog Pseudos the following components to be defined prior to programming the Custom
Control equations.

1. Use the PC Programmer’s Point Tab to assign suppression points with the
point types listed below. Refer to Appendix A for specific details on these
point types.

• SUPABRT. Use for suppression release abort points. Use 2080-9030

system abort switch. Wire this switch according to FWD 842-073.
• SUPDUMP. Use for manual suppression release points.
• SIGNAL. Use for suppression (agent discharge) release output points.
Note: Do not use the SUPREL point type for this application.
• SUPDET. Use for automatic initiating devices

2. Use the PC Programmer’s list tab to add four lists similar to the ones shown
below. Do not use the system’s suppression release lists – L9, L10, L11, or
L12.

List Add These Points

L26 Add all automatic initiating devices (detectors) whose
activation should result in the release of the suppression
agent.
L27 Add all manual suppression release points (pull stations)
whose activation should result in the release of the
suppression agent.
L28 Add all abort switch points to this list.
L29 Add the NACs that control the suppression release solenoids.

3. Define five Digital Pseudo Points, similar to the following:

• P80. Two detectors in alarm

• P81. Manual release station activated
• P82. Abort switch activated
• P83. Abort switch released
• P84. Delay timer running

4. Analog Pseudo Points. Define three analog pseudo points, similar to the

 Dual Detector, Pre-Signal, and Abort Switch with Delay, Continued

Program Custom Control The eight Custom Control equations required to program this application are
Equations shown in Figure 3-7. These equations have the following functions.

Equation 1. This equation contains two input qualifiers and a single output
qualifier. The first input qualifier in this equation monitors the state of list L26.
If two detectors within this list are in the FIRE state, the remainder of the
equation executes. The second input qualifier, which executes only if the first
input qualifier is true (i.e., two detectors are activated), starts a running timer of
30 seconds. The output qualifier at the bottom of the first equation, which also
executes only if the first input qualifier is true, turns P80 on.

Equation 2. The first input qualifier monitors the state of List L28, which
contains all manual release stations (pull stations) in the suppression release
area. The second input qualifier and the output qualifier at the bottom of
Equation 2 execute only if the first input qualifier is true. The second input
qualifier starts a running timer of five seconds. The output qualifier at the
bottom of the equation turns P81on.

Equation 3. The first input qualifier checks to see whether an abort switch is
active. It does this by checking to see whether any point within list L27, which
contains all abort switch points, is in a supervisory state. (Note that these points
must have a point type of SUPABRT for this to occur.) The second input
qualifier, which is linked to the first by an AND logical operator, determines
whether two detectors are in an activated state. Because the first two input
qualifiers are separated by the AND operator, they both must be true (i.e., an
abort switch must be active while two detectors are in an activated state) for the
equation’s two output qualifiers to execute. If the inputs are both true, the first
output qualifier holds pseudo point P82 ON and the second output qualifier
tracks ON P83. (Understanding the function of this last output qualifier is very
important. Because it uses TRACK ON, P83 turns on when both input
qualifiers are true, and turns off when either one of the input qualifiers is false.)

Equation 4. The first input qualifier checks pseudo point P82, which is ON
only if Equation 3’s input qualifiers are both true (i.e., abort switch is active and
two detectors in the suppression area are active at the same time). The second
input qualifier, which is linked to the first input by the logical AND operator,
checks P83. This input is true only if P83 is NOT in its ON/CODING state (i.e.,
switch is not being held in). The third input qualifier starts a running timer of 10
seconds. The output qualifer turns P84 on, which indicates that the timer is
running.

Equation 5. The four input qualifiers in this expression are linked via logical
operators. The output qualifier (which holds on the suppression release circuits)
in this equation executes if the following occurs:

- Two detectors are active (i.e., P80 is ON) AND the abort switch is not
active (P82 cannot be in the ON/CODING state).

- OR a pull station is active (P81 is ON).

- OR P84 is on (i.e., the abort switch delay timer has expired).

 Pre-Signal Operation

Overview This application monitors initiating devices and does the following:

• Automatic Initiating Device Activation. Sounds a pre-alert, slow

march time tone when an automatic initiating device (for example, a smoke
or heat sensor) activates. This tone lasts for five minutes. After five
minutes, if no Alarm Silence has occurred, the tone converts to a temporal
“general evacuation” tone. The purpose of this is to alert system operators
that an automatic initiating device has triggered and allow them up to five
minutes to investigate the cause of the alarm.

• Pull Station Activation. Sounds a temporal “general evacuation” tone,

for a duration of five minutes, when a pull station activates.

Note: Always consult the local AHJ to determine whether this type of
operation is allowed or not allowed.

Step 1. Define NAC’s Device The NACs used with the Pre-Signal application can be either the NACs located
Type, Point Type, and Custom on the panel’s SFIO board or the NACs located on a 4009 IDNet NAC extender.
Label Note: Class A QuickAlert cannot be used with pre-signal applications.

Use the PC Programmer to program the NACs with the device types and point
types listed in Table 4-1. When defining custom labels, make sure to use
descriptive labels, such as “FLOOR1-VISUAL-CIRCUIT.”

If necessary, refer to Chapter 7, Programming Points, of the 4010 PC

Programmer Installation and Programming Instructions (574-187) for
information on editing a point’s device type, point type, and custom label.

Step 2. Define Device Types, Each initiating device must be programmed with a device type and point type.
Point Types, and Custom Refer to “Programming Points,” located in Chapter 7 of the 4010 PC
Labels for Initiating Devices Programmer Installation and Programming Instructions for information on
programming an initiating device’s device type and point type. Refer to
“Monitor Point Types” in Appendix A of the PC Programmer manual for
detailed descriptions of the initiating device point types.

Step 3. Add Initiating Devices Create user-defined lists, as follows:

and NACs to User-Defined
Lists • Automatic initiating devices.
• Pull stations.
• NACs (if you are using standard NACs you may need two lists, one for
audible NACs and one for visible NACs).

To add devices to a list, use the PC Programmer’s List Tab, adding each of the
devices to one of the available user-defined lists (L26 through L50).

Step 4. Add Appropriate Use the PC Programmer’s List Tab to add the following to List L6 (Control
NACs to List L6 (Off On Points, Off on Silence). Members of this list automatically turn off when an

Step 6. Add Custom Control Standard NAC Example. Figure 4-1 shows an example of pre-signal
Equations Custom Control equations for a facility that uses standard NAC devices.
Information on QuickAlert devices is contained in the example at the end of this
section.

• Equation 1. The input side of this equation monitors the Physical

Abnormal state of each device within list L26, which is a user-defined list
containing the automatic initiating devices (smokes/heats, for example) for
Floor 1. The output side of Equation 1 programs SIG1 to sound (slow
march tone) when any point within list L26 enters a physical abnormal
condition (i.e., when any smoke sensor activates).

• Equation 2. The input side of this equation monitors the Physical

Abnormal state of each device within list L26, which is a user-defined list
containing the automatic initiating devices (smokes/heats, for example) for
Floor 1. If any point within L26 activates and P1 (pseudo point for
unacknowledged alarms) is ON (i.e., no operator acknowledgment has
occurred), a timer starts. This timer runs for five minutes (300 seconds).
When it expires, the NACs convert to a temporal pattern. Note that you
must assign an analog pseudo point (A26 in this example) to the timer.

• Equation 3. This equation’s input side monitors the Physical Short state
of each device within L27, which is a list containing the floor’s pull
stations. If a device within this list is active (i.e., pulled), the output side of
this equation programs the NACs to activate in a temporal pattern.

switch, and it cannot be controlled by Custom Control.) Figure 4-2 shows an
example of a pre-signal application that uses QuickAlert NACs.

 Programming a Utility Monitoring Point

Overview Utility monitoring points differ from standard fire alarm points in that they do
not report a trouble when they activate and they do not latch (i.e., they reset
themselves). A utility monitoring point tracks the state of a monitor device (for
example, a heat sensor), turning a relay or supervisory pseudo point on when the
sensor’s value equals or exceeds an analog value that you specify.

This section uses an example in which a customer wants a water heater to come
on and a supervisory alert to occur when the temperature of a water tank is
between 38 and 50 degrees.

Step 1. Change the Heat Use the PC Programmer to change the heat detector’s point type to Utility. This
Detector’s Point Type and is a generic point type with no default operation, allowing the point to be
Custom Label controlled by Custom Control. Assign a descriptive custom label, such as
“Water Temp Monitor – Tank 2” to the point.

Step 2. Change the AUX The output point is typically a relay (AUX1, for example). Use the PC
Relay Point’s Point Type and Programmer to change its point type to Relay. This is a generic point type that
Custom Label allows the point to be controlled via Custom Control. Change its custom label
to a descriptive text, such as “Water Heater Control Relay Tank 2.”

Step 3. Define a Supervisory Use the PC Programmer to define a user digital pseudo point. Assign it a point
Digital Pseudo Point type of Supervisory, which means it will generate a Supervisory alert to the
panel when activated. Change its custom label to the message that you want to
appear on the panel when the monitor’s threshold point is reached. For
example, “Water Tank Temp Warning.”

Step 4. Program Custom The Custom Control example, shown in Figure 4-3, outlines the equation needed
Control Equations to program the example water tank/heater application. This equation contains
two input qualifiers and two output qualifiers.

1st Input Qualifier. The first input qualifier in the example equation checks
the value of the heat sensor to determine if it is greater than or equal to 38
degrees. To do this, you need to program this input statement’s properties, as
follows:

1. Choose the COMPARE opcode and select COUNTS (constant) for the
qualifier.

2. Enter the threshold value in the Counts box at the bottom right of the panel.
The example shows 38, which represents a temperature value in this
example.

3. Choose the greater than or equal to (>=) operator.

 Programming a Utility Monitoring Point, Continued

Step 4. Program Custom 2nd Input Qualifier. The 2nd input qualifier, which is connected to the 1st
Control Equations (continued) input qualifier by an AND (i.e, both qualifiers must be true), checks to see if the
heat sensor is at a temperature of less than or equal to 50 degrees. Its
programming is very similar to the 1st input statement.

1. Select the COMPARE opcode and the COUNTS (constant) qualifier.

2. Specify 50 in the Counts box and select the AND radio button in the top left
corner.

3. Choose the less than or equal to (<=) operator for the 50 count.

1st Output Qualifier. This output tracks the input. That means that a
supervisory message (“Water Tank Temp Warning”) is sent to the panel when
the temperature range is between 38 and 50. This supervisory cannot be cleared
until the temperature is outside of the 38 to 50 degree range.

2nd Output Qualifier. This output tracks the input as well. Its function,
however, is to turn on a relay connected to a water heater while the temperature
range is between 38 and 50. As soon as the temperature is out of this range, the
relay goes off.

 Day / Night Programming

Overview The Day / Night programming application allows Custom Control to perform
one set of instructions during daytime hours and another set of instructions at
night.

Step 1. Program the Monitor The monitor device must be capable of accepting a variable operating level (for
Device’s Point Type, Device example, a smoke sensor whose sensitivity can be changed). The following
Type, and Custom Label devices support this functionality:

• TrueAlarm Photo
• TrueAlarm Heat
• TrueAlarm Ion
• TrueAlarm XPHOTO

Use the PC Programmer to program the initial sensitivity of the sensor.

Step 2. Program Custom Day / Night programming is done by comparing a constant that represents the
Control Equations time at which an action should occur against the value of A11, the current hour
of day analog pseudo point.

Example: Suppose M1-1 is a TrueAlarm Photo sensor and a customer wants

normal 2.5% sensitivity during working hours (7am – 6pm) and higher
sensitivity (1.0%) at night. (A11 is current hour analog pseudo point).

To do this, you would need two equations similar to the following:

Equation 1:
-2
%+6)%8)68,%2 MWEQ
398
7)88,6)7,30(10):)0SFWGYVEXMSR
)2(

Equation 2:
-2
%+6)%8)68,%2 MWTQ
398
7)88,6)7,30(10):)0SFWGYVEXMSR

Program the first equation, as follows:

1. Add an input to a new equation and change its properties as shown in the
figure below.

2. Select COMPARE as the opcode and COUNTS (constant) as the qualifier.

3. In the Compare panel at the bottom of the screen, do the following:

a. Choose A11 as the Analog Pseudo.

b. Choose the equal sign as the operator.

c. In the Counts box, enter the hour at which the change takes place.

4. Add an output to the equation. Set its Opcode and Qualifier to the
following:

• The Opcode must be one of the following: Set Threshold Photo, Set
Threshold Ion, Set Threshold Heat, Set Threshold XPHOTO.

• The Qualifier is the threshold that you want to set. For example,
Smoke Level 2.5.

As shown in the figure below, the second equation is programmed almost

exactly as the first equation. Its Input Qualifier monitors A11 (current hour) to
determine when it is equal to 18 (6:00 p.m.). At 6:00 p.m., the smoke level is
changed to 1.0.

 AHJ City Reset

Overview Newer versions of the 4010 FACP (Version 2.01 or later) provide the ability to
reset the City Circuit in the following situations.

• If the device(s) in alarm is physically removed. (Remove the faulty sensor

from its base, for example.)
• No other devices are in an alarm state.
• A System Reset is performed.

Always consult the local AHJ before implementing this functionality. Some
jurisdictions may not allow this operation.

Program Custom Control To program AHJ City reset, enter the following equation.
Equations
1. Add a new equation. Program its input statement to monitor the
ON/CODING state of the A4 analog pseudo point, which is the system
startup pseudo.

2. Program the output statement to Hold ON digital pseudo point P16 (AHJ
Reset).

 Elevator Recall

Overview The Elevator Recall application programs the system to automatically recall the
building elevators following alarm activation. Guidelines to be aware of
include:

• General information on and requirements for Elevator Recall and Fire

Safety Control Functions can be found in NFPA 72, 1996, Chapter 3 for
Protected Premises Fire Alarm Systems, and ANSI/ASME A17.1 Safety
Code for Elevators and Escalators.

• Installation wiring running between the 4010 FACP and the auxiliary relays
used for fire safety control functions (in this case, elevator recall) must be
monitored for integrity (supervised) and the auxiliary relay must be located
within 3 feet of the controlled circuit or device. Reference NFPA 72, 1996,
Section 3-9.2.

• It is recommended that relay IAMs be used as the primary and alternate

elevator recall relays. Other supervised wiring methods, such as a 24 Point
I/O output connected to a supervised relay, may be used in lieu of a relay
IAM.

The remainder of this section describes the Custom Control programming

required to implement this application.

Step 1. Add Primary Floor Use the PC Programmer’s List Tab to add all of the building’s initiating devices,
Initiating Devices to a User- with the exception of those located on the alternate floor, to a user-defined list.
Defined List Use the Card Tab to give the list a descriptive name such as “BANK2
PRIMARY ELEVATOR RECALL.”

Step 2. Add Alternate Floor Use the PC Programmer’s List Tab to add the initiating devices located on the
Initiating Devices to a alternate floor to a user-defined list. Use the Card Tab to give the list a
User-Defined List descriptive name such as “BANK2 ALTERNATE ELEVATOR RECALL.”

Step 3. Add Custom Labels The 4010 uses AUX relays, connected to the appropriate contacts on the control
to AUX Relays panel of the elevator, to indicate that a fire condition exists and the elevator
should be returned to either the primary or alternate floor. Use the Point Tab to
assign a descriptive label, such as “BANK2 PRIMARY ELEVATOR” or
“BANK2 ALTERNATE ELEVATOR,” to the appropriate AUX Relay.

Step 4. Add Custom Control The following example, shown in Figure 4-6, illustrates how to implement
Equations Elevator Recall with Custom Control.

• Equation 1. The first two input statements, separated by the AND NOT
operator, check whether there is an activated initiating device (List L26)
and make sure the relay that returns the elevator to the alternate floor is not
activated (i.e., possible fire on primary floor). If both of these are true, the
relay for the primary floor activates.

Step 4. Add Custom Control • Equation 2. The input side of this equation monitors List L27, which
Equations (continued) contains the initiating devices located on the alternate floor. If one of these
devices contained activates, the output side of this equation executes,
energizing the relay and returning the elevator to the alternate floor.

 Selective City Circuit Activation

Overview By default, the City Circuit activates on all alarm conditions. In some cases,
however, the customer may want to prevent activation of the city circuit for
certain types of alarms (waterflow alarms, for example).

This application describes programming the system to activate the City Circuit
only for a specific set of alarms.

Note: The trouble circuit on the City Circuit card cannot be selectively
controlled.

Step 1. Create a User-Defined Use the PC Programmer’s List Tab to create a user-defined list containing all of
List of City Circuit Alarm the City Circuit alarm points. Exclude points that you want to prevent from
Points activating the City Circuit. Use the Card Tab to assign a descriptive name, such
as “CITY CIRCUIT ALARM ACTIVATION POINTS,” to this list.

Step 2. Create Custom The following example, shown in the figure below, illustrates how to implement
Control Equations selective City Circuit activation.

• Equation 1. The input side of this equation monitors system startup

pseudo point, A4, to determine if the system has been restarted. Each time
the system restarts, the output qualifier executes, holding the priority of the
City Circuit Output Control pseudo point at Priority 8,8.

• Equation 2. The input qualifier monitors the fire state of all devices in
List L41. If any device within this list activates, the output qualifier
executes, turning ON the City Circuit’s alarm connection.

 General Alarm Shutdown for Fans and Dampers

Overview This application describes using Custom Control to shutdown all fans and close
all dampers during a general alarm condition. A System Reset returns all fans
and dampers to normal operation.

Refer to Simplex Technical Support for advice on implementing more complex

fan/damper applications. Situations requiring extensive monitoring and control
of the building’s fans and dampers may be beyond the 60 equation capacity of
the 4010.

Example: Fan / Damper The following figure illustrates a typical four-story building. Assume that the
Shutdown for a Four Story building includes a supply and exhaust fan, and the relays controlling the
Building dampers are wired to 24 PT I/O outputs.

SUPPLY EXHAUST

POSITIVE

NEGATIVE

POSITIVE

Figure 4-7. Fan / Damper Example

Step 1. Program Point Type Use the PC Programmer’s Point Tab to program each fan relay with the RELAY
and Custom Labels for Fan point type. When defining custom labels, make sure to use descriptive labels,
Relays such as “EXHAUST FAN RELAY.”

Step 2. Program Point Types Each damper typically contains two switches for monitoring the position of the
and Custom Labels for damper and a relay for controlling the damper motor. Use the PC Programmer’s
Damper Monitor Switches and Point Tab to program the Point Type and Custom Label for these components,
Relays as follows:

• Fan Relays. Program each relay with the RELAY point type. When
defining custom labels for damper relays, make sure to use descriptive
labels, such as “EXH DAMPER1 RELAY.”

 General Alarm Shutdown for Fans and Dampers, Continued

Step 2. Program Point Types • Damper Monitor Switches. The switches used to monitor the damper
and Custom Labels for position are typically connected to either an IAM or MZAM. Each damper
Damper Monitor Switches and uses two switches, one switch monitors the OPEN position of the damper
Relays (continued) and the other monitors the CLOSED position.

Program the appropriate device type (IAM, MAZAM, or MBZAM) and

then assign a point type of DAMPER to each device. When defining
custom labels for damper monitor switches, make sure to use descriptive
labels, such as “EXH DAMPER1 OPEN.”

Step 3. Custom Control Use the CC Tab in the PC Programmer to program the Custom Control
Equations equations as shown below. Note that these equations only show a single damper
being controlled. Copy this equation, changing the damper points as required to
account for all of the building’s dampers.

• Equation 1. This equation monitors the General Alarm List (L1). If any
point within this list activates, the Hold ON Output Qualifier executes,
turning off the relays for the supply and exhaust fans.

• Equation 2. If any point within List L1 (General Alarm List) activates

AND the open damper monitor switch is not ON (i.e., the damper is already
closed), the output executes, turning on the damper motor relay and closing
the damper.

System Options and Point Types

Introduction This appendix lists and explains the following:

• System Options.

• Software Point Types. 4010 point types are grouped into two general
categories:

- Monitor point types are used with monitoring devices, such as smoke
detectors, pull stations, heat detectors, fire pump monitors, etc.

- Control point types are used with signal (notification appliance) and
relay devices.

In this Chapter This appendix discusses the following topics:

 System Options

System Options Many common applications have been incorporated into the 4010 panel as
system options. Table 1-1 lists these options.

Refer to Chapter 5 of the 4010 PC Programmer Installation and Programming

Manual (574-187) for information on programming these options.

Table A-1. System Options

System Option Description

The Time Format option allows you to display system time in 12- or 24-hour format.
That is, time is displayed in either a 12-hour format that uses an AM (morning) or PM
Time Format (afternoon) designation, or in 24-hour (military style) format.
The Time format directly affects how time is displayed on the 4010 LCD display and
within the Historical Logs.
This option selects the mode of operation for the 4010 FACP if an alarm occurs during
an AC power loss while a Depleted Battery trouble exists. The specific operation of this
option differs slightly, depending on whether you have a domestic or Canadian system.
Domestic Operation. The default setting for the option is OFF and the depleted battery
threshold voltage is 19.4 VDC ± 5%. Operation of this option for a domestic system is
as follows:
• If the system is in alarm and a depleted battery condition occurs, any NACs that are
Depleted Battery active remain active.
• If the system is not in alarm and a depleted battery condition occurs, the NACs are
prevented from activating.
Canadian Operation. The default setting for the option is OFF and the depleted battery
threshold voltage is 19.4 VDC ± 5%. Operation of this option for a Canadian system is
as follows:
• When a depleted battery condition occurs, power is turned off to the 4010. AC
power must be restored to re-activate the 4010.
This option prevents an Alarm Silence/System Reset on a 4010 FACP for a set
Alarm Silence
duration. The range for the Silence/Reset Inhibit timer is 0-60 minutes. Zero (no inhibit)
Inhibit
is the default setting.
The Alarm Signal Cut-Out timer allows you to set a duration for how long signals sound
after an alarm. In other words, when an alarm condition exists, the signals sound until
Alarm Cutout silenced. With this option set at two minutes, building signals sound on alarm for two
Timer minutes and then stop sounding. However, the alarm condition remains active in the
panel. The default setting for this option is No Cutout (meaning an Alarm Silence is
required to shut off signals).
The Door Drop on Alarm timer allows the 4010 to hold doors open for a set duration
during an alarm condition. After that duration has expired, the 4010 shuts off the door
Door Drop on holder relays and the doors close. The range for the timer is 0-60 seconds with a
Alarm default setting of zero seconds. To have door holders drop the doors immediately,
leave the timer set to zero seconds. Note: to make a relay a door holder relay, you
must assign it the DHOLDER point type.

System Options (continued)

Table 1-1. System Options, continued

System Option Description

The Door Holder - AC Fail Door Drop Timer allows the 4010 to hold doors open for a set
duration during an AC power loss condition. After that duration has expired, the 4010
Door Drop on conserves battery power by shutting off the door holder devices and closing the doors.
AC Fail The range for the timer is 0-60 minutes, with a default setting of 5 minutes. To have
door holders drop the doors immediately upon AC power loss, set the timer to zero
minutes.
This option allows you to set the 4010 to stagger start any Air Handling Units (point
types AHUR, AHUO, and AHUF) in the 4010 FACP. This option protects against power
Air Handling spikes that may cause the circuit breakers to trip when AHUs start simultaneously. The
Units (AHU) range for stagger starting the AHUs is 0-60 seconds. The default setting for this option
Stagger Start is 30 seconds. A setting of zero allows all AHUs to start immediately.
The 4010 FACP displays an AHU Stagger Start message when the sequence starts and
an AHU Stagger Start Complete message when the sequence ends.
The Suppression Release option contains three selections:
• Dual Detector. When enabled, this option requires two points in L9 (Automatic
Suppression Release Points List) to activate before the outputs specified in L12
(Suppression Release Output Points List) activate.
Suppression • Detector Delay. When enabled, this option allows you to specify a delay between
Release the time that a detector activates and the time that a point within the L9 list triggers.
The range is from 0 to 60 seconds (60 is the default).
• Manual Delay. When enabled, this option allows you to specify a delay, ranging
from 0 to 30 seconds, between the time that a manual release point is activated and
the time that the suppression release points in L10 (Suppression Manual Release
Points) trigger.

The Active Status Reminder option allows you to set an interval and duration during
which the 4010 remind operators that a FIRE, SUPV, or TBL condition still exists in the
panel.
Active Status Active Status Reminder consists of two parts:
Reminder
• Reminder Interval. The range can be from 1 to 12 hours, and the default is 8 hours.
• Acknowledge Option. This option sets the duration of the acknowledge signal. The
range can be from 0 to 60 seconds, and the default is 5 seconds.

Audible and Visible ON until Silence Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) can be set to
the choices shown below. The default setting for the Audible NACs is Temporal; the
default setting for the Visible NACs is Synchronous; and the default setting for
QuickAlert Horns is TEMPORAL.
Signal Operation • Audible NAC Operation – choices are temporal, steady, march time, slow march
time.
• Visible NAC Operation – choices are steady, march time, slow march time,
temporal, synchronous
• QuickAlert Horn Operation – choices are steady, temporal, slow march time.

 Point Types

Introduction Some application-specific needs can also be met without Custom Control simply
by using the correct point types. A point’s type determines the following:

• The message displayed on the 4010’s LCD when changes occur to the state
of the point’s circuit.

• The way in which the system operates (for example, initiate an Alarm,
Trouble, or Supervisory action) when changes occur to the state of the
point’s circuit.

AHUF AHU off relay – dual relay control. This point type is used with applications
that use two auxiliary relays for AHU control – one relay for ON and one relay
for OFF. Use this point type for the OFF relay. Points assigned with this type
operate on general alarm (that is, when any point within L1 “General Alarm
List” goes into alarm). Point turns OFF on Reset.

Stagger Start functionality for air handler units is provided by the “Stagger
Start” system option.

See AHUO for the ON relay point type. If you have a single relay that performs
both ON and OFF functions, see AHUR.
