Alarm Conditions
Introduction An alarm condition occurs when an initiating device (such as a manual pull station, smoke detector,
etc.) activates. The 4010ES indicates the presence of the alarm condition through messages it
displays on the alphanumeric display, by flashing the ALARM indicator, and by activating the
building’s notification appliances (horns and strobes).
Note: An alarm condition is a serious event, indicating the possibility of fire danger.In addition to
using the 4010ES operator interface panel to investigate and manage alarm conditions as
described in this chapter, you should also be aware of any facility-specific procedures that
you may be required to follow.
