Edwards EST4 - Acknowledging Events; Displaying Event Lists

Chapter 2: Basic operating instructions

Acknowledging events
When an event occurs, it is important that you acknowledge it and review the issue. The control unit handles the
event by showing it on the LCD screen as an event message, sounding the operator alert signal, placing the
event in the appropriate queue, and, when configured, flashing the Acknowledge LED.
If an operator control button has been programmed in the 4-CU as Acknowledge, pressing the Acknowledge
button acknowledges events.
For proprietary systems, pressing the Acknowledge button acknowledges an event and turns the operator alert
signal off after all events have been individually acknowledged in the order displayed.
Note: The acknowledge function can be programmed for a fire privilege PIN. The default setting is no PIN
required.
To acknowledge an event:
1. Press the Acknowledge operator control button.
2. If prompted, enter the fire privilege PIN using the interactive keypad.
Displaying event lists
Event lists allow you to view event messages in a specific queue. The message consists of two lines of text that
include the event type, current status, time of the event, and message text.
