13.0 6100 Status Displays
At any given time the 6100 will be in one of three main states. These are the normal condition, the fault /
disablement/test condition or the fire condition.
13.1 The System Normal Display
When the 6100 does not have any fires, faults, disablements or tests it is in the System Normal condition.
In this state the 6100 will have it’s power on indicator illuminated and the LCD will show the System Normal
display, as shown in figure 13.0.
Figure 13.0 – The System Normal Display
13.2 The Fault, Disablement and Test Display
If the system has one or more faults, disablements or tests the 6100 will display this as shown in
Figure 13.1.
Faults, disablements and tests are always accompanied by the relevant general indicator, plus separate
indications detailing the individual condition.
The authorised user may enter the access level 2 code to accept the current system status by pressing the
Mute Buzzer key, or retrieve more detailed information about individual faults or disablements by entering
the 6100 menu system.
Faults that have not been accepted will, in general, use a pulsing indication. This then changes to steady
when the fault is accepted.
