operation of the Manual Fire Alarm/Muster 
button on the panel display causes all sounders 
to operate continuously until the silence alarms 
switch is operated. Manual Fire Alarm/Muster 
Alarm will also override the  sounder  delay and 
activate all sounder outputs. 
•  In  Muster-mode, operation of the Manual Fire 
Alarm/Muster button on the panel display 
causes all sounders to operate in the 
internationally recognised muster mode [7 short 
pulses followed by one long pulse, repeated]. 
This will continue until the Silence Alarms button 
is pressed. 
•  If  Muster and Manual Fire Alarm  modes  are 
disabled, the manual fire alarm/muster switch is 
not functional. This feature is provided to avoid 
duplication and operator confusion in instances 
where a totally separate manual muster system 
is provided. 
All three modes  (Muster,  Manual Fire Alarm,  and 
Disabled) are selected by a single link [J2] on the 
rear of the display PCB. [Note: The link is clearly 
labelled – “Muster enabled/Evac enabled”. Evac 
= Manual Fire Alarm]. The link is removed for the 
Disabled condition. 
The user control insert fitted to the display is 
double-sided to allow the installer to label the 
Manual Fire Alarm/Muster button according to the 
panel configuration. On the front side, the top left-
hand button is labelled “Manual Fire Alarm” and on 
the reverse side it is labelled “Muster”. A blank is 
provided for use when the Manual Fire 
Alarm/Muster feature is disabled. 
17.13  Inhibit Fire Protection on Non-
Latched Zone DIL Switch 
DIL switch  SW1/1  configures the Fire Protection 
output relay on the motherboard [and any 
expansion outputs selected to the fire protection 
type] to operate or not to operate for a fire condition 
on any zone configured to non-latched mode. This 
feature has been provided to allow two panels to be 
linked so that a fire condition on one panel triggers 
a fire on a zone on the other panel [and vice versa] 
without latching up. It can also be used to prevent a 
fire signal from a remote panel tripping any fire 
protection equipment connected to the local panel 
via the expansion outputs. The zones used to 
monitor the fire signals from remote panels should 
be  configured to non-latching and the Fire 
Protection relay on the motherboard should be 
used to transmit a local fire signal to the remote 
panels. 
17.14  Delay Alarm Silence and Reset 
Controls DIL Switch 
DIL  switch  SW1/2  prevents the alarms being 
silenced and panel reset for a period of 3 minutes 
after a fire alarm condition occurs. (Not applicable 
to Muster Alarm). 
17.15  Delay ON Auto DIL Switch 
DIL switch SW1/3 has been re-assigned to enable 
zone coincidence for use with the Watermist 
extinguishing panel. This switch should be left in 
the OFF position for normal operation. When the 
switch is in the ON position, the Fire Protection 
outputs on the optional output expansion system 
will operate in pairs as required by the Watermist 
system. 
17.16  Alarms on Evac Only DIL Switch 
DIL  switch  SW1/10  configures the sounders to 
operate  only
  when the panel is in Manual Fire 
Alarm or muster activated condition. 
17.17  Silence before Reset DIL Switch 
DIL switch SW2/1 determines when the panel can 
be reset from the fire condition: 
OFF: Reset from Fire is available when panel is in 
the fire condition and sounders are active or 
silenced. 
ON:  Reset from Fire is available only after the 
sounders have been silenced. 
17.18  Continuous or Pulsed Sounder 
Operation DIL Switch 
DIL switch SW2/2 selects all sounders to operate in 
either continuous or pulsed mode. 
17.19  Silent Zone Test DIL Switch 
DIL switch  SW2/8  selects the type of sounder 
response in One Man [Detector] Test Mode: 
OFF:  Normal sounder response [continuous or 
pulsed in line with panel configuration] 
ON: Silent [no sounder operation] 
17.20  Buzzer Disable DIL Switch 
DIL switch  SW2/9  enables/disables the panel 
fire/fault buzzer  and gives a DISABLED indication 
on the display. 
17.21  Latched Faults DIL Switch 
DIL switch  SW2/10  enables/disables the latched 
fault indication mode. When enabled, all fault 
indications latch until the Reset button is operated. 
Note:  A latched zone fault will be cleared if a fire 
condition occurs on the same zone. 
17.22  Repeater Configuration 
Three DIL switches on the optional  Repeater 
Interface board allow the engineer to configure the 
panel to communicate with up to 5 remote 
indication panels via the RS485 serial data link. 
17.23  Output Relay Configuration 
The Fire Signal  Output, Fire Protection and Fault 
output relays are link-configurable  on the panel 
motherboard  to  provide  one of the following
