NAC (Signal) Circuits Types
Circuit Type Description
Silenceable Signal For audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may be silenced either manually or
automatically. While sounding, these follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the confi gured
evacuation code (default is temporal code) during single-stage alarm, or two stage general alarm, or
the alert code during a two stage system’s alert (fi rst) stage.
Non-Silenceable Signal For audible devices such as bells and piezo mini-horns that may not be silenced either manually or
automatically. While sounding, these follow the pattern appropriate for the condition: the confi gured
evacuation code (default is temporal code) during single-stage alarm, or two-stage general alarm, or
the alert code during a two stage system’s alert (fi rst) stage.
Silenceable Visual For visual devices such as strobes that use no code pattern (they are continuous).
Non-Silenceable Visual Same as previous, but is non-silenceable.
