4 GENERAL FAULT DISPLAY
The display of a general fault depends on the type of event occurred and it usually allows the immediate recognition of
the equipment or part of the control panel in faulty condition which can negatively affect the system operation.
In any case, the display shows each event with all the data needed for the equipment identification (e.g. address) and
the related error code.
Example:
Note that some type of fault is notified with a self explaining message, allowing the user to immediately understand
what is going on. Other types of fault are notified instead with a message and an error code. For a detailed
explanation of these codes, please refer to the appendixes.
5 FIELD FAULT DISPLAY
The display of a field fault depends on the type of fault.
Usually, a field fault affects a detection circuit or a device connected to this circuit.
A field fault due to a device is notified as follows:
The field fault can affect also the detection circuit and occur, for instance, because of a short circuit or when the circuit
is configured in loop mode and the loop breaks.
In any case, a self-explaining message will be displayed. Below is reported an example of a field fault of type “short
circuit” affecting circuit 1.
