4.3 RESPONDING TO ALARMS
WHEN THE FFCIF ALARM LED INDICATOR IS FLASHING AND THE LCD IS
DISPLAYING AN UNACKNOWLEDGED ALARM, PROCEED AS FOLLOWS:
STEP 1 DO NOT PRESS "ACK", "RESET" OR "ISOLATE" KEYS ON THE
PANEL until the Fire Brigade arrives. The "NEXT" key can be pressed to
view the next zone alarm in the list if there is more than one alarm
present. If the "NEXT" key is pressed, the internal sounder will silence,
but the bells will continue to ring.
STEP 2 INVESTIGATE THE ALARM (if possible by Fire Safety Crew), and
implement appropriate fire control and extinguishing measures.
The FIRE SEARCH AREA (zone) will be indicated by the zone text
displayed on the LCD (and by the flashing zone "ALM" LED where the
LED display is fitted).
STEP 3 Evacuate the areas if necessary.
STEP 4 ADVISE THE BRIGADE of both real fires and false alarms.
STEP 5 KEEP A MEMBER OF THE FIRE SAFETY CREW ON STANDBY to
direct fire fighters to the source(s) of alarm and inform them of measures
already taken.
STEP 6 RECORD ALL EVENTS IN THE LOG BOOK PROVIDED.
** PLEASE NOTE **
The above procedure should be executed by a trained fire officer, and may need to be
modified in accordance with any special conditions applying to the particular F3200 FIP
installation.
