Operation Time Functions
116 IQ-301 PN 50036:F 10/29/2001
An Action Pre-Alarm is indicated if a detector exceeds the Action level threshold.
When this occurs, all functions of the Alert level occur, plus a special Action software
zone (5th zone) may be activated if programmed. Action Pre-Alarms latch until reset.
Figure 111 shows a typical Action Pre-Alarm display:

4.8 Time Functions
4.8.1 Overview
The control panel includes a real-time clock that provides time-of-day, date, and
day-of-week. The clock includes a lithium battery backup. Time normally displays in a
12-hour time format with month/day/year. Table 38 contains descriptions and typical
uses for time functions.

Description Typical Uses
Time Control
Command
ZONES 95 and 96 are reserved for
control-by-time special functions,
intended for ancillary (non-fire)
applications (such as lighting control,
setting a thermostat, and so forth).
For example, program ZONES 95
and 96 to activate at one time of day
and deactivate at another time, on
certain days of the week. You can
turn a non-fire control point on and
off, by using ZONE 95 or 96.
Day/Night
Sensitivity
Adjust
If an FSI or FSP detector CBE lists
ZONE 95 or 96, the control panel sets
the detector sensitivity to the minimum
(low) setting when ZONE 95 or 96 is
activated by the programmed date/time
in its CBE. When ZONE 95 or 96
deactivates, the detector sensitivity
returns to the programmed setting.
For day/night sensitivity use,
consider ZONES 95 and 96 as Day
ZONES.
Holiday The control panel reserves ZONE 97 for
setting holiday dates (up to 9 days).
When the current date matches any of
the nine holiday dates, the control panel
activates ZONE 97.
Other uses for zone 97 include: a
special day-of-year control; or an
8th day in programming ZONES 95
and 96.
