Mass Notification Fault Event Operation of the Control Panel
Following is a typical MN supervisory message that would appear on a panel display:
Figure 2.10 Sample MN Supervisory Point Message
2.9.2 How to Respond to an Active MN Supervisory
If the control panel indicates a MN Supervisory condition, the operator can do the following:
1. Press the SILENCE BUZZER key to acknowledge the MN Supervisory event, steady the
SUPERVISORY LED, and silence the panel sounder. An acknowledge message is sent to the
remote annunciators, history buffers, installed printers, and CRT-2s
2. Press the MORE INFO soft key to display the MORE INFORMATION screen and view
additional information on the device and possibly preprogrammed text for recommended
action. (Refer to Figure 1.9 on page 11 for an example of this screen and an explanation of its
fields.)
3. Investigate and correct the condition causing the Supervisory.
4. For tracking MN Supervisory events: If the supervisory condition was initiated by a device
that is programmed with an MN supervisory type code that tracks, the panel will return to
Systems Normal once the condition has been corrected.
For latching MN Supervisory events: If the supervisory condition was initiated by a device
that is programmed with an MN supervisory type code that latches upon activation or a
General MN Supervisory event occurs, press the RESET key to clear the event.
The panel will send a system normal message to the History buffer, installed printer and annuncia-
tors.
2.9.3 How to Interpret Type Codes
The Type Code that displays in the MN Supervisory message indicates the function of the point that
initiates the MN Supervisory. For example, a monitor module with a ESC/MN SUPT Type Code
means that the module monitors the state of a mass notification device. If the Type ID code is unfa-
miliar, refer to Appendix A, “Software Type ID Codes”, on page 63. This appendix is an alphabeti-
cal list of Type ID codes and an explanation of each.
2.10 Mass Notification Fault Event
2.10.1 How the Control Panel Indicates a Mass Notification Fault
A mass notification fault point activates when a device programmed as MN Fault activates due to an elec-
trical short or open. The panel will react differently depending on whether or not there are higher priority
unacknowledged events.
When no higher priority unacknowledged events are exist, the control panel:
• Produces a pulsed audible tone (if the piezo is enabled)
