Individual SAMPLE, ALARM and FAULT indicators for each sector. The ALL Alarm is the TRACE indicator.
Function and Fault indicators as follows:
POWER Indicates that the power supply is ON
GENERAL FAULT The FireTracer has one or more faults, which will also be shown by other specific fault
indicators. The FAULT relay contacts always follow the state of this indicator.
ISOLATED will also show as GENERAL FAULT
GENERAL FAULT will flash if the detector EEPROM is faulty
PROCESSOR RESET The processor has been reset
MAINS FAULT The primary a.c. supply has been absent for a programmable period of time. See Note 2 below.
FLOW FAULT The flow rate for any sector is outside the bounds set by the High and Low flow limits. On low
pressure systems all sectors are normalised by a run-time sequence; on high pressure systems,
the pipe lengths should be balanced.
BATTERY FAULT The battery is either disconnected, or has discharged to below 21.6 volts. Systems without
battery standby should have this function disabled in configuration by setting STANDBY to 0.
See Note 2 below.
ASPIRATION FAULT The rotary valve has a fault. See Note 1
DETECTOR FAULT The laser smoke detector has developed a fault
ISOLATED This has been put into ISOLATED mode when the unit functions normally, but fault reporting via
the relays is disabled.
NB: GENERAL FAULT will also be shown.
COMMS FAULT An element of the internal RS485 communication link is faulty.
HOLD The FireTracer has been set to sample from only one sector.
UNLOCK The Panel is unlocked - meaning that an access code has been entered. It will clear when
normal operation is resumed.
ALERT, ACTION, FIRE 1 and FIRE 2 operate in tandem with corresponding relays on the I/O board to indicate progressive levels of
smoke. They are programmable for both obscuration level and time delay. See Note 1
Smoke density bar graph. It is logarithmic enabling a range of 0 - 20% obscuration per meter with a resolution of 0.01% at the
lower end (0 – 6.09% Obs/ft).
Alternate button function indicators. When the unit is in a mode accessed by the MAIN MENU or ENVIRO MENU, the five right-most
buttons can change to Scroll and ENTER functions.
Status display. Will normally show the smoke density value. Also used for all SETUP and CONFIGURE procedures.
Control and configuration buttons. All local user-interface operations are done using these buttons. Note: The Display may be
operated remotely. Also, the unit may be accessed through ethernet (if ethernet is fitted).
EnviroTracer display option for auxiliary sensor inputs.
NOTE 1: In the event of an ASPIRATOR FAULT coincident with any ALARM event, the ALARM indicators that would be ON will flash.
NOTE 2: When the MAINS FAULT appears, the system will work normally but the display starburst will be switched off in order to save the
battery power. It will return to normal mode by pressing either the MAIN MENU or the TEST buttons. If the AC supply returns, the display
will revert to normal mode. When the BATTERY FAULT appears (i.e. in the event of actual Battery Supply failure or if the Battery output
voltage falls to below 21.6 volts), the system will enter an hibernation mode to avoid damaging the battery where everything (laser
detector, fan, I/O modules etc) except the BATTERY FAULT indicator will be switched off.
