The exact type of alarm (siren, flashing light, etc.) depends on how the system has
been programmed.
Your system has been programmed to respond to a system alarm in one of two ways:
1.
Latching System Alarms
A PIN code, which is authorised to reset system alarms, must be entered to
reset a system alarm.
The procedure to identify and reset latching system alarms is the same as the
procedure described for "Alarms".
2.
Non-Latching System Alarms
The system alarm resets automatically as soon as the condition causing the
alarm has been rectified.
The procedure to identify the system alarm details is the same as the procedure
described to Identify “Alarms”.

HAT TO DO WHEN THERE IS AN ALARM

An area can have several zones associated with it. When there is an alarm, it is important
that you know exactly which zone is causing the problem so that you can quickly deal
with it.
