FIRE CONDITIONS

In the event of a fire condition:

the panel’s general Fire indicator will flash;

•  the panel’s internal sounder (if enabled) will pulse;
•  the relevant Fire Zone indicator on the panel will flash;
•  the panel’s display will show the number and name of the zone in fire (see example below); and
•  the system’s sounders, relays and other output devices will operate as programmed.

Pressing  the  More  Information  button  will  display  the  actual  device  that  has  triggered  the  fire
condition, for example:

If  more  than  one  device  is  in  a  fire
condition  on  the  zone,  the  top  left
corner  of  the  display  will  show,  for
example “1 of 3” and can be scrolled
through using the 

5

and

6

buttons.

In the event of a fire condition on multiple zones:

•  the panel’s general Fire indicator will flash, its internal sounder (if enabled) will pulse and its 

relevant Fire Zone indicators will flash; 

•  the panel’s display will show the first and last zones that went into fire together with the total 

number of zones that are in fire. For example, if a fire condition has occurred in zones 1, 2 and 3 
in that order, the display will show a message similar to the one below.

•  the system’s sounders, relays and other output devices will operate as programmed.

To view any additional zones that are in fire, press the 

5

or

6

buttons as appropriate. The display will

continue to show the last zone that went into fire but all previous zones will now appear on a step-
by-step basis with details of which order they went into fire, i.e. 1st zone, 2nd zone, etc.

Pressing the More Information button at any time will give you details of the actual device(s) that are
in a fire condition on the zone that is on the top line of the display.  These can be scrolled through
using the 

5

and 

6

buttons.

In the event of a fire condition, the building’s fire management plan should always be
executed.

Authorised users can silence or reset the system as appropriate by entering access level 2 and pressing
the buttons on the panel’s front. Details on how to do this can be found on page 14.

FIRE CONDITIONS WITH OUTPUT DELAYS

If a fire condition occurs on a zone that has been programmed with one or more output delays, the
panel  will  report  the  fire  condition  as  described  above  but  the  panel’s  Delays  Running indicator  will
flash yellow to indicate that one or more of the zone’s assigned outputs has not yet triggered. Details
of which outputs have delays running can be viewed by pressing the More Information button.
