Has anyone seen a case where the hardware annunciator silences itself
automatically? We have a pair of p92's installed at version 8.3 in one
particular area of our plant and cag'd together and certain alarms
silence the horns on both stations after sounding for a seemingly random
amount of time (5 to 45 seconds). I cant find anything in common that
points me in the right direction.

It does silence the horns on both stations.

I have checked the init.user file and the HRN_OPT is still commented so
it should be default(manual only), and ACK_HORN =3DY (commented out,
default also).

Also, the init.user is the same file we use on the rest of our stations
and this problem doesn't happen anywhere else.

Not all alarms cause this behavior, but there don't seem to be anything
in common.
