5.1.3 Unprotected Functions
Operators without a password can do basic tasks; if a key switch is installed on J6 and enabled, a key is required to enable the keypad.
The operator can perform the following keypad or menu-displayed functions:
• Acknowledge alarms, troubles, and restorations (clears).
• View acknowledged alarms and troubles.
• Silence the sounding of fire alarm notification appliances.
• Simultaneously reset all panels which are associated through programming.
• Point Read Status for network devices and local NCA-2 annunciator points.
• Test the NCA-2 LED indicators and Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
• View or print the event history stored in nonvolatile memory.
If the main operator of the system requires access to a function which is password protected, contact the Notifier distributor who
installed the system for the required password(s).
5.1.4 Key Switches
An AKS-1B Annunciator Key Switch is required for each NCA-2 unless the NCA-2 is installed in a lockable cabinet such as a CAB-4
series backbox. The AKS-1B is used to enable and disable the NCA-2 keypad. (see Section 3.16 “Annunciator Key Switch (AKS-1B)”).
In some jurisdictions, only one NCA-2 may have the keypad enabled at any given point in time; all other NCA-2 keypads must be dis-
abled using the AKS-1B If an NCS is installed on the network, each NCA-2 keypad must be disabled by enabling key switch monitoring
for the NCA-2 and locking the AKS-1B. A wiring diagram is provided in Section 3.16, “Annunciator Key Switch (AKS-1B)”, on page
33.
