If a real fire alarm is detected during the on-site inspection, the alarm must be forwarded to
the fire department; see Triggering alarm manually, page 48. Alternatively, a manual call point
can be triggered at the location.
If it is a false alarm, the triggering detector can be reset or bypassed; see resetting alarm
message or bypassing detectors.
!
Caution!
Alarm messages from bypassed detectors are no longer displayed; only faults in these
detectors are displayed.
