5.3 ACKNOWLEDGE ZONES IN ALARM
5.3.1 FUNCTION
In FFCIF mode, pressing the "ACK" key performs the following functions:
(a) The displayed alarm is acknowledged.
(b) The pulsing internal sounder is silenced.
(c) For a network system:
(i) For a local zone an FFCIF acknowledge indication may be sent to other
devices on the network;
(ii)
For a remote zone, an acknowledge command may be sent to the panel
originating the alarm.
5.3.2 OPERATING SEQUENCE
Press "ACK" key once:
- Internal sounder will be silenced.
- LCD displays "ACKD" for the currently displayed alarm.
- If there are no more unacknowledged alarms in the system, the
ALARM LED goes steady.
- Where fitted, the flashing red "ALM" LED indicator for the zone
goes steady.
NOTES:
(a) Subsequent non-isolated zone ALARMS or FAULTS on the system will re-
operate the indicators, and sounder, as appropriate.
(b) If an unacknowledged FAULT condition existed before the alarm the sounder will
still be silenced. However, the FAULT LED will be ON, indicating the presence of
a zone or relay fault in the system.
(c) For a network system, if the alarm being acknowledged is from a zone on a
remote panel, then the event in the local FFCIF will be "ACKD" and, depending
on programming, an ACK command may be sent to the panel originating the
alarm, which in turn may result in the alarm being acknowledged at all devices on
the network.
(d) For an alarm on a local zone, depending on programming, the alarm may be
acknowledged at an RZDU which may result in the alarm being acknowledged at
the FIP (and hence, for a network system, at other devices on the network).
