1.2 4100U Basic Operations
The Fire Panel display consists of two sections – the Operator
Interface (upper section) and the Zone Isolate pushbutton switches &
indicators (lower section). Fire detectors are grouped into zones
(searchable grouped areas). Zones can be Isolated by pressing the
zone‟s isolate pushbutton on the panel – this prevents an alarm in
that group from activating the panel outputs. When a non-isolated
detector detects an alarm, the fire panel rings the bell, calls the fire
brigade, and activates the Warning or Evacuation System along with
any other programmed functions (site specific).
The Operator Interface indicates common Alarm, Fault & Isolation
Status on LEDs, and point (detector) status on the LCD. When an
Alarm, Fault or Isolation occurs, the buzzer will operate until the
corresponding „Acknowledge‟ (e.g. Fire Alarm Ack) key is pressed.
The panel is reset by pressing „System Reset.‟ If the alarm won‟t
reset the point may still be activated (i.e. detector is still in alarm).
Press „Fire Alarm Ack‟ when the point alarm is displayed, then press
„Disable,‟ „Enter.‟ Press „Fault Ack‟ (to acknowledge the fault caused
by disabling a point), then press SYSTEM RESET again. The
disabled detector must be re-enabled when the condition is cleared.
