Standby Condition

In normal standby operation, the green AC POWER ON LED should be illuminated and no other indicator operating. The display will show the system name, “System Normal” announcement and the current date, day, and time.

Alarm Conditions

ALARM

• When a general alarm occurs, all NACs with output type set to “ALARM” activate. To activate a general alarm, proceed as follows:

• - On the Menu display, select “GENERAL ALARM”.

• At the next screen, select “Yes”.

• Silence and reset the system as with any alarm.

In case of alarm, the system alarm LED activates (ON – flashing) and the buzzer activates (ON

– steady). Local audible and visual signals and remote alarm signals operate, and the LCD panel display indicates the zone or point initiating the alarm.

On receipt of an alarm, proceed in accordance with the established emergency plan. Assure that all personnel are accounted for, and notify the Fire Department.

To silence the audible after evacuation, where permitted by the codes and control panel programming, press ALARM SILENCE. The alarm audible will be silenced, the alarm silence

LED will be illuminated and a system trouble indicated.

Operating the ACKNOWLEDGE button will silence the local buzzer and change the LED alarm indicator from flashing to steady.

Alarms detected on devices with usage designated as “waterflow” indicate sprinkler operation and the audible alarms cannot be silenced in this condition. Operation of alarm silence will produce no effect.

• POSITIVE Alarm Sequence (PAS)

Activation of an initiating device in an input group programmed for PAS, activates the Alarm

LED, display, buzzer, system and user-programmed outputs, but delays additional programmed outputs for 15 seconds.

Operation of the ACKNOWLEDGE button within 15 seconds will add a number of seconds (60-

180) to the PAS timer for the purpose of investigation. If the ACKNOWLEDGE button is not operated within 15 seconds, the additional user-programmed outputs activate.
