Abort Switches Releasing ApplicationsNFS-3030 Programming Manual P/N 51345:C 11/4/03 85Example 2 - Delay Time Exceeds 120 SecondsProgram a Delay Time value of 60 seconds and an Abort Switch type of NYC. The releasing zoneactivates and the 60-second delay timer starts. Ten seconds into the Delay Time countdown, pressand hold the abort switch for 30 seconds, then release the abort switch. The control panel restartsthe delay timer at 60 seconds and adds the the NYC delay of 90 seconds. The delay timers will bothexpire at 150 seconds: however, this time exceeds the maximum of 120 seconds, so the releasingzone outputs will begin releasing at 120 seconds, not at 150. Following is a graphic example of anNYC Abort Switch and a delay timer programmed to a releasing zone.Appendix Figure B-7 NYC Abort Switch -Example 2Delay Time: 60 secondsAbort Switch: NYCCross Zone: NSoak Time: 0Program selections for this releasing zoneDelay Time=60 sec.Press and holdthe Abort SwitchThe control panel activatesreleasing zone outputs after120 seconds have elapsed.The NYC timer has notexpired, but it is overridden bythe control panel.30 sec.10 sec.120 sec. to releaseTotal time from alarm initiation to release:10 + 30 + 60 + 60 = 160 secondsAlarm0 sec.NYC Delay=90 sec.Release Abort Switch---At this point, the delay becomes theprogrammed Delay Time (60seconds) plus the NYC Delay (90seconds), which is 150 seconds, OR120 seconds, whichever is smaller.Pressing and releasing abort switchrestarts Delay Time=60 countdown after40 seconds have elapsed.
