1.4 Operator classification - Access Levels
The control panel has 4 distinct access levels:
Level 1: Public level - this is the normal access level of the control panel and is the access level for building inhabitants
who are neither authorized to use the system nor instructed in its use.
This level allows building inhabitants to view information on the screen and signalling LEDs, interact with the system (in
accordance with Level 1) and scroll through the information by means of the buttons and touchscreen. Level 1 allows the
following operations only:
• mute buzzer
• test signalling LEDs
• activate alarm signalling when an early-warning process is running
Level 2: Authorized users - this access level is for the system supervisors and is for authorized personnel who are
adequately instructed in the use of the system and its functions.
Access requires the use of a key or entry of a valid access code with sufficient access rights. In addition to the operations
described for level 1 it is also possible to carry out the following operations:
• mute alarm signalling devices
• rearm the control panel
• activate alarm signalling devices manually
• disable control panel elements
• place in test status one or more of the system elements
Level 3: Programming - this access level is for specialized technical operators who carry out system configuration,
commissioning and maintenance.
Access requires entry of a valid access code with sufficient access rights after inserting a jumper which enables
programming. Refer to the manual for system configuration, commissioning and maintenance.
ONLY authorized technicians, appointed by the Manufacturer can, by means of special tools, carry out repair work on
the motherboard.
