Control and indicating equipment

On occurrence of a fire, fault or disablement event in the protect premises, the event is quickly indicated at the
control panel. The panel controls are password protected and must only be operated by the person responsible
for the fire system.

Control panel
The control panel is the heart of the system. It is normally located near to the main entry or exit point of the
protected premises. The control panel continuously monitor devices that are connected to the device loop. The
device loop cable is routed through the protected premises to cover all areas with both ends of the loop
terminating at the control panel. On the loop cable are installed devices such as fire sensors that constantly
monitor the environment for fire. Alarm devices on the loop provide alert and evacuation alarm to warn
occupants in the protected premises in the event of a fire.

Controls Description
The two selection buttons with a line above allow selection of
an option on the display. In this example the option is MENU

displayed.

These buttons are used to scroll through a range in a form.

They are also used to scroll through the alphabet or number
range when entering a label or a PIN code.

7
Operating instructions
This button is normally used to highlight the next menu or sub
Verify v menu option for selection. It is also used to scroll to the next
character position when entering a PIN code and similarly when
editing a text label.

In a fire condition this button is a selection for the 'Verify' option,

which is available when the 'Day mode' option is active and the
'Delay LED' is lit. Selecting the 'Verify' option will delay the
alarm further to provide the responsible person(s) time to
investigate the cause of the alarm and the option of cancelling
the alarm within the delay time period.

the system.
v
Reset
The RESET button will clear any fire indication and messages
and return the panel to its normal condition, providing the
v devices generating alarm have been cleared for normal
operation. If a fire condition occurs immediately after reset then
the indicated device should be investigated.
u This button may be configured to site specific operation at Access level 1 or Access level 2, latter
requiring a Customer mode PIN (factory setting).
v These buttons are operable on entry of a Customer Mode PIN code.

Navigation
On selecting the Menu option the display shows the user menu.
The functions and submenu options accessible are determined by the access level. The access level 1 is
without a PIN code entry, while access level 2 (Customer Mode) or higher access level will require a PIN code
entry. Normally the panel is at access level 1.

The instructions covered here are of all those menu options under Access levels 1 and 2.
At any level in a menu momentarily selecting the Back option will abort the operation.
At any point in a form selecting the Quit option will disregard and not save entries made and return to the menu
display. Once a form is filled-in you must select the Save option to acknowledge and save any changes made.

If the time taken between button presses exceed a few minutes then the panel will automatically revert to
system status indication.
The Customer Mode PIN code is programmed during the commissioning of the system and is passed on to
the person(s) responsible for the fire alarm system on site.

How to enter 'Customer mode' PIN for access to Level 2 menus

A Customer mode PIN code is normally set up by the servicing organisation during commissioning of the
system. The Customer mode PIN code (password) is for the end user, the person(s) responsible for the fire
alarm system. The Customer mode allows access to menu options that are required to be protected by coded
entry. It is important the PIN code is changed on a regular basis for security, ask your servicing organisation for
advice on changing the PIN code.

Weekly tests
Every week during normal working hours the fire detection and alarm system should be tested. It is important to
inform the alarm receiving centre of the fire test. A fire test reminder will appear on the display every week on
the specified day if the option is turned on. The fire test should be conducted at a specific time of the day.
A weekly test can be carried out at a manual call point without breaking the call point glass by use of a test key.
How to enter the Weekly test mode
To put the system in a weekly test mode and to identify the next device to be tested, carry out the following
procedure at the panel.
¨ First enter the Customer Mode by entering Access Level 2 PIN code, see page 9.

installed. A fire detection can be from a fire sensor, manual call point or fire input from an
interface. The control panel actions the alarm sounders in the system and at the same time give
details of the fire event. The event indication is repeated at all repeat indicator panels in the

How to put the system in 'Day mode' or 'Night Mode'

The fire system normally operates in the 'Night Mode', which means all the fire alarms operate without a delay
in the event of a fire detection. The 'Day Mode' allows a delayed operation of fire alarms. The 'Day mode' is
active when the 'Delay' light is lit. The delay durations are programmed to site specific requirements by the
servicing organisation. The 'Day Mode' will remain active for a predefined period of time. You can manually
place the system in 'Day mode', 'Night Mode' or 'NONE'. Selecting the 'NONE' option will revert the panel
delays to operate according to the 'Day mode delay settings' made during commissioning. You will need to be
at Access level 2 to change 'Day mode' settings, see page 9.

NONE The ‘NONE’ selection means the Day/Night override is Off.

Therefore the panel delays will operate according to the
