2.2 Operator Panel
All alarm handling and system features can be configured, controlled
and monitored from the operator panel (
Fire Alarm Control Panel
BS-420
/
Operator Panel BS-430
).
Each operator panel is assigned to one
Operation Zone
(refer to
«Zonal Definitions» in Appendix). Relative to its own zone, an operator
panel is
local
, while it is
remote
to operation zones which are not
encompassed by the local zone. All events and actions occurring in a
particular operation zone must be handled from a
local
operator panel.
The operator panel displays information on events occurring in all
operation zones. However, the type of events and the level of details
of the given information depends on which operation zone the
information is related to. Local panels will list all detection zones in fire
alarm state. Remote operator panels will list remote alarms only, and
function as «indication only» devices.
The operator panel consists of two main sections. The upper section,
and the lower section which is the
Operator Part
.
The standard onshore market version BS-420 is shown below.
