A nominal 24VDC power supply is required

to run the annunciator system. This can be
an unregulated supply (19 to 30VDC) and
Outputs there is no need for transient suppression.

Alarm Sequences

Each alarm channel can be configured to suit the operating sequence required as listed in the ISA
publication Annunciator Sequences and Specification S18.1, 1979. Systems can be configured with
different features on different alarm ways. Available Sequences on standard ARWS (Field Selectable)
are “Manual Reset”(M), “Auto Reset ”(A), “Manual Reset First Out (F2M-1)” and “Auto Reset First
Out (F1A). Other sequences need special order.
