DEFINITIONS:

A. ACTIVE COMMUNICATION: REFERS TO A METHOD OF SIGNAL TRANSMISSION TO A 24-

HOUR MANNED EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION CENTER IN WHICH COMMUNICATION

BETWEEN THE PROTECTED PREMISE FIRE ALARM COMMUNICATOR AND THE STATION

RECEIVER IS CONTINUOUSLY SUPERVISED. LOSS OF COMMUNICATION WILL RESULT IN

A TROUBLE CONDITION AT BOTH THE COMMUNICATOR AND THE RECEIVER AND WILL

TRIGGER A PREDETERMINED RESPONSE BY PERSONNEL AT THE 24-HOUR MANNED

MONITORING STATION.

B. ALARM VERIFICATION: A METHOD BY WHICH AS ALARM (OR SUPERVISORY) EVENT

MUST UNDERGO ANOTHER PROCESS IN ORDER TO CONFIRM AN ACTUAL CONDITION

EXISTS WHICH REQUIRES THE ACTIVATION OF AN OUTPUT DEVICE. THIS MAY INCLUDE

THE REQUIREMENT FOR ANOTHER INDEPENDENT DEVICE MONITORING THE SAME

PROTECTED AREA TO ENTER AN ALARM STATE. IT MAY ALSO INVOLVE PROGRAMMING

SOFTWARE OR FIRMWARE THAT REQUIRES ONE EVENT TRIGGER TO FOLLOW

ANOTHER WITHIN A SPECIFIED AND USUALLY PROGRAMMABLE TIMEFRAME.

C. DIGITAL ALARM COMMUNICATOR TRANSMITTER (DACT): A SYSTEM COMPONENT AT

THE PROTECTED PREMISE FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL (E.G., NEW REHABILITATION

BUILDING) TO WHICH INITIATING DEVICES, SIGNALING LINE CIRCUIT AND NOTIFICATION

APPLIANCE CIRCUITS ARE CONNECTED. THE DACT SEIZES THE CONNECTED

TELEPHONE LINE OR OTHER TRANSMISSION MEDIA, DIALS A PRESELECTED NUMBER

TO CONNECT TO A DACR, AND TRANSMIT SIGNALS INDICATING A STATUS CHANGE OF

THE LOCAL FIRE ALARM DEVICE.

D. DIGITAL ALARM COMMUNICATOR RECEIVER (DACR): A SYSTEM COMPONENT THAT

ACCEPTS AND DISPLAYS SIGNAL FROM THE DIGITAL ALARM COMMUNICATOR

TRANSMITTER (DACT) LOCATED AT A PROTECTED PREMISE THROUGH THE PUBLIC-

SWITCH TELEPHONE NETWORK OR A DIGITAL ALARM COMMUNICATOR RECEIVER

(DACR).

E. DIGITAL COMMUNICATOR: THIS IS AN OUTPUT DEVICE UTILIZE BY THE FIRE ALARM

SYSTEM TO COMMUNICATE ALARM, TROUBLE OR SUPERVISORY SIGNAL TO A 24-HOUR

MANNED EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION CENTER. IT USED THE PREMISE NORMAL

TELEPHONE LINE OR OTHER COMMUNICATION MEDIA TO TRANSMIT THE SIGNAL AT

THE NEW REHABILITATION BUILDING FOR ACTION BY THE MAIN HOSPITAL'S

EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION CENTER.

F. ABBREVIATION EVM MEANS FIRE EXTINGUISHER STATION MODULE.

G. CLASS B CIRCUIT AND PATHWAY: REFER TO NFPA 72, SECTION 12.3 FOR DEFINITION

AND REQUIREMENT OF PATHWAY DESIGNATION.

H. CLASS X CIRCUIT AND PATHWAY: REFER TO NFPA 72, SECTION 12.3 FOR DEFINITION

AND REQUIREMENTS OF THE PATHWAY DESIGNATION.
