1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The SystemCORP Alarm Annunciator Panel (AAP-10) provides Visual and Audible alarms or warnings of a
process that has gone beyond set limits or to provide system status indications.
The fully assembled unit is field programmable via a USB connection on the Keypad Controller cell.
System configuration options are:
- Definition of ANSI -18 (R1992) alarm sequences for each alarm input
- Link alarm inputs to a specific LED or a group of LEDs into larger windows
- The use of additional output relays as alarm extension or typically used in Ringback alarm sequences
- The use of the keypad cell’s buzzer and/or using an external alarm relay
- In addition, Boolean logic operators combining any digital alarm inputs into alarm groups
Evaluate
Alarm Type:
▪ Automatic
Logical ▪ Manual
Multiple Inputs Operation ▪ F3A Alarm
AND/OR/ ▪ F2M-1
INVERT ▪ F1A
▪ No Lock-in

AAP-10 Operator Manual Safety
2 Safety
When setting up the equipment for use:

!
• Equipment must be earthed by the mains lead (Protective Earth).
• Place the equipment on a hard, dry level surface.
• Do not place your equipment in a closed-in wall unit, or on a soft, fabric surface such as a bed, sofa, carpet,
or a rug.
• Leave 10 cm (4 in) minimum of clearance on all vented sides of the equipment to permit the airflow required
for proper ventilation. Restricting airflow can damage the equipment or cause a fire.
• Ensure that nothing rests on your equipment’s cables and that the cables are not located where they can be
stepped on or tripped over.
• Keep your equipment away from radiators and heat sources.
• Keep your equipment away from extremely hot or cold temperatures to ensure that it is used within the
specified operating range.
• Do not stack equipment or place equipment so close together that it is subject to re-circulated or preheated
air.
• Move equipment with care; ensure that all casters and/or stabilizers are firmly connected to the system.
Avoid sudden stops and uneven surfaces.
Protecting against Electrostatic Discharge (for service personal)

!
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) events can harm electronic components. Under certain conditions, ESD may build up
on your body or an object, such as a peripheral, and then discharge into another object, such as AAP modules. To
prevent ESD damage, you should discharge static electricity from your body before you interact with any of AAP
electronic components, mainly the internal electronic system components.
You can protect against ESD and discharge static electricity from your body by touching a metal grounded object
(such as the metal surface of the AAP) before you interact with anything electronic. When assembling the AAP, you
should always ground both yourself and any AAP electronic system module before handling them. In addition, as
you work inside the AAP, periodically touch a metal-grounded object to remove any static charge your body may
have accumulated.
You can also take the following steps to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge:
• A grounded wrist strap is made of a conductive material that fits securely around your wrist. To continually
dissipate any static electricity on your body, you attach to a grounded object, such as the earthed metal
frame of AAP rack.
• When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component from
the antistatic packing material until you are ready to install the component. Before unwrapping any
component or module in an antistatic package, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
• When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
• Handle all electrostatic sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads and
work bench pads.

The alarm window bezel snaps onto the alarm window together with the protective, the message transparency
and the diffuser lens.
The colour of the LED coins can be selected from the colour template below:
➢ Red
➢ Amber/Yellow
➢ Green
➢ White
►Tip: When using white LEDs a colour effect can be added by printing the message transparency in colour or by
using coloured transparencies.

An AAP alarm cell can contain a number of individual alarm windows realized by different bezel sizes. The
illustration below shows all possible combinations.
Bezel A – 30 x 30 mm, Small

Bezel B – 30 x 65 mm, Medium
Bezel C – 65 x 65 mm, Large

Figure 3-5 – Alarm Window Bezel Configurations
3.3.2 Alarm Window Arrangement

The LED sockets offer the option to use high and low current LEDs. This is useful when mixing LED colours in
one frame. A green LED normally requires a high current for achieving the same light intensity than a red LED.
Configuring high and low current LEDs is done as follows:
L L L L

H H H H
High light intensity LEDs require a low Low light intensity LEDs require a high
current – insert between + and L current – insert between + and H

5.2 AAP-10 System Functions
5.2.1 Attended Mode

The Attended Mode is the AAP-10 normal mode operation. All Input and Output modules, their Alarm Sequences,
all output relays, all keypad keys, all visual and audible alarms are operational as configured. By default, the AAP-
10 power-up restart begins in this mode.
5.2.2 Sleep Mode

Sleep mode is also known as “Dark and Silent” mode.
► Upon entering Sleep Mode the audible alarm becomes disabled and all visual alarms are turned off.
However, all module output relays remain active. For example, if an alarm input module’s output relay is closed
as part of the Ringback Alarm Sequence at the time of entering this mode it will remain closed. Or, if a digital
input is configured in a No Lock-in Alarm Sequence and uses an output relay then when it is triggered (goes to an
Abnormal state) while Sleep Mode that relay will close. Therefore, any powered circuit in series with that relay
such as a bell, buzzer, or lights will become active.
If any Alarm Sequence is triggered (goes to an Abnormal State) while in Sleep Mode then no audible or visual
alarm is sound or is shown. All the alarms not serviced before entering this mode, if any, or triggered (goes
Abnormal) while in this mode are stored by AAP-10. All un-serviced alarms will become audible and visible when
re-entering Attended Mode.
Sleep Mode activation is done from the keypad.

Press and hold the Sleep keypad button or external Sleep key for 5 seconds to enter into Sleep Mode. To wake
from Sleep Mode press and hold the Sleep key for 5 seconds. As external key a non-latching key or switch
component must be used.
5.2.3 Unattended Mode

► Upon entering Unattended Mode the audible alarm becomes disabled, however all visual alarms remain active.
Also in this mode all I/O Module output relays remain active as described under section 4.2.2 Sleep Mode.
If any Alarm Sequence is triggered (goes to an Abnormal State) while in Unattended then no audible is sound.
However, visual alarms are shown. All the alarms not serviced before entering this mode, if any, or triggered
(goes Abnormal) while in this mode are stored by AAP-10. All un-serviced alarms will become audible and remain
visible when re-entering Attended Mode.
Unattended Mode entry can only be implemented via an external digital function input of the keypad controller.
The external switch/key must be a latching type such as a key switch or locking panel mount switch.
For activating the Unattended Mode the assigned digital function input must be permanently ON.
5.2.4 Resetting the AAP-10 System

To reboot the AAP-10 system while in Attended Mode (same as power off then on):
Step 1. Press and hold ACK (Acknowledge) key first,

Step 2. Then press and hold Reset key simultaneously for 5 seconds.
Result: Each cell of 4 LED coins will flash while re-starting. Sequentially each cell will stop flashing until all cells
have rebooted. The AAP-10 becomes operational (Attended Mode) only after all the cells have rebooted
successfully. Note: Resetting the AAP-10 from the keypad cannot be done while in Unattended Mode.

AAP-10 Operator Manual Alarm Sequences
6 Alarm Sequences
SystemCORP’s Alarm Annunciator Panel (AAP-10) supports the following ANSI/ISA – 18.1-1979 (R1992)
Annunciator Sequences.
The Alarm Sequence descriptions and diagrams describe:
• The Process – Either Normal or Abnormal signal denoting an alarm state.

• The Sequence state – Normal, Alarm, Acknowledged, First Alarm, Subsequent Alarm, or Ringback.
• The Visual display – LED Off, On, Flashing, Fast Flashing, Slow Flashing, or Intermittent Flashing.
• The Audible buzzer – Silent or Audible AAP-10 Buzzer and/or External Alarm relay.
• In the Ringback Sequence, the Ringback Audible is Silent (relay off) or Audible (relay on).
The Operation Sequence description illustrates user options for the keypad and general explanations of AAP-10
functions depending on the ANSI alarm sequence.
