3.8 Alarm Memory
If a detector has entered a local alarm, once it exits the
local alarm, the alarm memory latch is set. Initially the
LED can be used to visually identify any unit that had
previously been in a local alarm condition. The LED will
flash 3 times spaced 3.3 seconds apart. This pattern
will repeat every 40 seconds. The duration of the flash
is 10.5 ms. In order to conserve battery power, this
visual indication will stop after a period of 24 hours. The
user will still be able to identify a unit with an active
alarm memory by pressing the push-to-test button.
When the push-to-test button is active, the horn will
chirp for 10.5 ms every 250 ms.
If the alarm memory condition is set, any time the push-
to-test button is pressed and then released, the alarm
memory latch is reset.
The initial 24 hour visual indication is not displayed if a
low battery condition exits.
3.9 Tone Select
The TONE pin selects the NFPA72 temporal horn tone
(high), or the 2/3 duty cycle continuous tone (low). If
this pin is externally connected high, use a current
limiting resistor of at least 1.5K from TONE pin to VDD.
3.10 Reverse Battery Protection
The RE46C162/163 internally limits the current from
VSS to VDD in the event of accidental polarity reversal.
If an input is connected to VDD it should be done
through a resistance of at least 1.5K to limit the reverse
current through this path.
