The default passwords for the two installers are as follows:
INSTALLER 1 00000
INSTALLER 2 99999
By default, only USER 1 works with its default password.
The other users are unavailable and disabled. USER 1
may be enabled and available.
By default, only INSTALLER 1 works with its default
password. The other installers are unavailable and
disabled. INSTALLER 1 may be enabled and available.
Only INSTALLER 1, using the FireClass FC500
(FC501_FC503_FC506) Console or panel user interface,
can modify the availability and enable the status of USERs
2 to 8 and INSTALLER 2.
The INSTALLER 1, using the FireClass FC500
(FC501_FC503_FC506) Console or panel user interface,
may modify the password for USERs 1 to 8 and
INSTALLER 2.
Each installer or each user can modify their own
password.
When INSTALLER 1 enters the first password through the
user interface to a user or installer, the system declares
the password "available" and enables access.
If INSTALLER 1 loses their password, they can enter a
new password using the following procedure:
1.
Remove the two screws at access level 4, open the fire
panel, and remove the jumper J5 of the main board.
2.
Access the installer menu screen.
3.
Access the programming screen of the installer
password and enter the new password.
4.
The system stores the new password as the current
password for INSTALLER 1. The user interface returns
to the MAIN screen, indicating local programming,
followed by a panel reset.
5.
Replace the J5 jumper to restore the normal program
menu screen functionality.
Power supply
The power supply system of the FC503 & FC506 control
panels complies with EN54-4. All models are powered by
the mains. The FC503 and FC506 have switching power
supply that supplies up to 5.5 A at 27.6V. Both models can
house two 12V, 17Ah batteries that when connected in
series, supply 24V to the control panel and peripherals in
the event of a blackout.
Notes
If necessary, whether for the full configured loop or for
particular system requirements, a user or installer can
connect the FC503 and FC506 control panels to two
12V, 38 Ah batteries in an external metal box. See
Figure 16.
The battery must be a VRLA (valve regulated lead
acid) type.
The battery must comply with all applicable
standards indicated in paragraph M.2.1 of
standard EN 62368-1:2014 “Requirements (safety
of batteries and their elements)”; In this case, the
battery must comply with the standards: IEC
60896-21:2004 and IEC 60896-22:2004.
A skilled professional must install and replace the
battery.
The battery must have an enclosure with
flammability class UL94V-1 or better.
The control panel can detect, signal, and store in memory
the following power faults:
Shorted 24A or 24R outputs
Low battery
Battery fault
Battery disconnected
Battery trouble LED
Ground fault Earth LED
Mains failure Power Supply Fault LED
The Battery fault may be signaled with a delay up to 1
minute; see Table 5. The Mains (Amber) fault is signaled
when the programmed delay expires.

Test, Silence Buzzer and Evacuate control keys can only
be activated without a password at access level L1. All
other control keys can be activated with a password at
access level L2 and L3. See Table 4.
FC500 repeater LED description
Table 5 provides a description of the FC500 repeater
LEDs.
Description of the control keys (panel)
You can only activate the Test, Silence Buzzer and
Evacuate control keys without a pin at access level 1. You
must use a pin to activate all other control keys, at access
level 2 and 3.
Silence
Use the SILENCE key to restore the Silenceable outputs
to standby status. If the control panel operates in Night
Mode, Silence remains until the programmed Night Mode
Silence time expires; if in Day Mode, Silence remains until
you press the SILENCE key again. In both modes, Silence
status cancels when the system detects a new alarm
condition.
Reset
You can only enable the Reset key at Level 2 with a pin as
the fire panel returns to standby status after the Alarm,
Delay to Alarm, Warning and Fault conditions stop. At the
end of the Reset time, the system reprocesses any Alarm,
