ALARM Indicator
The red ALARM indicator turns on and remains on when an alarm condition exists. A
pre-alarm (if programmed) condition causes the ALARM indicator to flash.
Alarm and
pre-Alarm conditions are defined as existing if:
the system is armed,
and
an external alarm or pre-alarm is detected and verified.
The ALARM indicator will remain on (or flashing) until the system is disarmed
and
the
RESET switch, located on the PCB, is pressed.
ARMED Indicator
The green ARMED indicator will be on when the Control Panel is armed or when an
alarm or pre-alarm condition is detected and verified.
The front panel key switch and remote ARM/DISARM input (if used) are connected in
series. The key must be in the ARM position and the remote ARM/DISARM input closed
for the EX 200™ to begin arming.
Upon applying power to the control panel, the microprocessor will conduct Built-In Tests
(BIT). If the BIT has detected an internal failure, it will be impossible to arm the system.
This BIT process will take approximately 30 seconds.
If the BIT has not detected an internal failure, the key-switch is in the ARM position,
and remote ARM/DISARM input is closed, the ARMED indicator will begin to blink. It
will continue to blink for 15 seconds. If the BIT does not detect an external fault
during this 15-second interval, the control panel will arm.
If the BIT does detect an external fault, the ARMED indicator will blink for another 15
seconds. If the BIT does not detect an external fault at the end of the second 15-
second interval, the control panel will arm.
If the BIT does detect an external fault, the ARMED indicator will turn off (stop
blinking) and the control panel will be in the disarmed mode.
