Fire conditions
In the event of a fire condition in a single zone:
• the panel’s general Fire indicator will flash
• the panel’s internal sounder will pulse
• the relevant Fire Zone indicator on the panel will flash
• the panel’s display will show the number and name of the zone in fire (see example below)
• the system’s sounders, relays and other output devices will operate as programmed by an engineer.
Pressing the More Information button will display the actual device that has triggered the fire condition,
for example:
If more than one device is in a fire
condition on the zone, the top left
corner of the display will show,
for example “1 of 3” and can be
scrolled through using the
5 and
6 buttons.
In the event of a fire condition on multiple zones:
• the panel’s general Fire indicator will flash, the internal sounder will pulse and the relevant Fire
Zone indicators will flash
• the panel’s display will show the first and last zones that went into fire together with the total
number of zones that are in fire. For example, if a fire condition has occurred in zones 1, 2 and 3
in that order, the display will show a message similar to the one below
• the system’s sounders, relays and other output devices will operate as programmed by an engineer.
To view any additional zones that are in fire, press the
5 or 6 buttons as appropriate. The
display will continue to show the last zone that went into fire but all previous zones will now appear
on a step-by-step basis with details of which order they went into fire, i.e. 1st zone, 2nd zone, etc.
Pressing the More Information button at any time will give you details of the actual device(s) that
are in a fire condition on the zone that is on the top line of the display. These can be scrolled
through using the
5 and 6 buttons.
In the event of a fire condition, the building’s fire management plan should always
be executed.
Authorised users can silence or reset the system by entering access level 2 and pressing the appropriate
buttons on the panel’s front. Details on how to do this can be found on page 14.
Fire conditions with output delays
If a fire condition occurs on a zone that has been programmed (by an engineer) with one or more output
delays, the panel will report the fire condition as described above but the panel’s Delays Running indicator
will flash yellow to indicate that one or more of the zone’s assigned outputs has not yet triggered. Details
of which outputs have delays running can be viewed by pressing the More Information button.
