AAF function (see also the flow chart in the following figure):
- One of the detectors in an AAF zone reaches its fire alarm level.
The AA Process starts and the AAF buzzer sounds.
- The Acknowledgement Period starts
(A Period=10-60 sec. -- programmable via WinG3).
- If it is a false alarm, acknowledge the alarm on the AAFC before
the A Period is ended.
- After acknowledgement an Investigation Period starts and the AAF
buzzer is silent
(I Period =0-3 min. -- programmable via WinG3).
The AA Process ends if all the detectors in the AAF zone becomes
normal again (goes below its fire alarm level) during the I Period.
If the A or I Periods run out during the AA Process and any detector
in the AAF zone still is over its fire alarm level, normal fire alarm(s)
will be activated.
