7.4 Performing a Fire Drill
Pressing and holding the “Drill” button for 2 seconds will activate a fire drill. The internal buzzer will sound (pulsing),
and the display will indicate “NEW WARNING ZONE 0701” (unacknowledged event) and the zone/device
messages programmed by the installer for the drill button event (0701 is the zone allocated to the AX-CTL base
card). The bottom line of the display will be highlighted and will indicate a tally of the number of events active
(Warnings, Supervisory, Disabled and Troubles) prior to the event being acknowledged. In most cases, no other
events will be present on the system so the bottom highlighted display will only indicate one warning.
Example of unacknowledged fire drill (warning) event:
NEW WARNING ZONE 0701
< New warning message (unacknowledged)
Fire Alarm Control Panel
Drill Switch [SWITCH ]
< Zone text (32 Characters)
< Device text (26 Characters) / type of device

< Further device details
< # Warnings, Supervisory, Disables and

Note: If drill function was activated from an addressable device at a remote location rather than from the
drill button on the front of the fire alarm control panel, the SLC loop number and device address would be
displayed in the drill details area.
Pressing the “ACK” button while in a fire drill, will acknowledge the drill event. This silences the internal buzzer and
the display will show “Off-Normal State: Total”. Off-normal state totals are listed in order of system priority; Pre-
Alarms, Warnings, Supervisory, Troubles and Disabled.
Example of acknowledged fire drill (warning) event:
[Off-Normal State : Total]
< Off-Normal line
WARNINGS : 1
< Off-Normal type and event total
