Front Panel Indicators, Controls, and Operation
LED indicators are amber (trouble or supervisory), red (alarm), or green (AC ON), and may
illuminate continuously (steady) or at one of two flash rates:
• Fast flash: 120 flashes per minute, 50% duty cycle
• Trouble flash: 20 flashes per minute, 50% duty cycle
2.3.1 Paper Labels for Buttons and Indicators
Buttons and indicators are supplied with paper labels. These labels slide into the plastic label
templates on the face of the panel. Paper labels allow for easy English or French selection and
custom-printed zone information.
2.4 Common Indicators
2.4.1 Buzzer
The buzzer is activated by any of the following:
• Fire alarm: steady
• Supervisory alarm: fast flash rate
• Trouble: trouble flash rate
• Monitor: Configurable to sound at trouble flash rate
If the buzzer turns ON in response to a non-latching trouble or supervisory, it will turn OFF if
the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason for it to be ON.
2.4.2 AC ON LED
The AC ON LED illuminates steady green while the main AC power is within
acceptable levels. It turns OFF when the power level falls below the power-fail
threshold and the panel switches to standby (battery) power.
2.4.3 Alarm Queue LED
The Alarm LED flashes red whenever
the panel is in alarm. An alarm results
from any alarm on any point or input
programmed as alarm or activation of
the manual red General Alarm button.
The Alarm Queue LED illuminates
steadily once all alarms in the queue
have been reviewed using the Alarm
Queue button. Since all alarms are
latched until the panel is reset, the LED
remains ON until then.
Note: The Acknowledge LED and pushbutton, are active only on a system configured
for Two Stage.
