PROMPT
DESCRIPTION
1.
Alarms silenced
The
SILENCE ALARMS
button has been pressed whilst the sounders
were operating, and they have been silenced.
2.
Alarms sounded
The
SOUND ALARMS
button has been pressed whilst the sounders were
not operating, and they have been activated.
3.
AUX input in alarm
Clear the input before
resetting the panel
The auxiliary input at a detector or a Loop powered I/O module is in the
alarm state. Reset the triggering input to that device before resetting the
control panel.
4.
AUX input open
circuit
Investigate the input for
open circuit
An auxiliary input at a detector or a Loop powered I/O module is in the
open circuit state. Check that the 3k3 EOL resistor is fitted, or that the
EOL switch is turned on, but not both. Check also that all cables are
correctly connected and that the circuit is complete.
Note. Even if the auxiliary I/O is set to its output state, it still monitors its
input circuit for EOL, and this is still reported as relating to the AUX input.
5.
AUX input short
circuit
Investigate the input for
short circuit
An auxiliary input at a detector or a Loop powered I/O module is in the
short circuit state. Check that the 3k3 EOL resistor is fitted, or that the
EOL switch is turned on, but not both. Check also that all cables are
correctly connected and that the circuit is complete and not presenting a
short circuit to the input.
Note. Even if the auxiliary I/O is set to its output state, it still monitors its
input circuit for EOL, and this is still reported as relating to the AUX input.
6.
AUX I/O input active
Clear the input before
resetting the panel
The auxiliary input at a detector or a Loop powered I/O module is in the
alarm state. Reset the triggering input to that device before resetting the
control panel.
7.
AUX output short
circuit
Investigate the output for
short circuit
An auxiliary input at a detector or a Loop powered I/O module is in the
short circuit state. Check that the 3k3 EOL resistor is fitted, or that the
EOL switch is turned on, but not both. Check also that all cables are
correctly connected and that the circuit is complete and not presenting a
short circuit to the input.
Note. Even if the auxiliary I/O is set to its output state, it still monitors its
input circuit for EOL, and this is still reported as relating to the AUX input.
8.
Battery charger
failed
Investigate the batteries
and charger
A fault has been detected in the battery charger circuitry. Ensure that the
battery connections are making a good connection and that the fuse is
securely clamped. If possible check the batteries with an intelligent battery
tester, or replace them with a new set to see if the fault clears.
9.
Battery failed
Investigate the batteries
and fuse
A fault has been detected in the standby batteries. Ensure that the battery
connections are making a good connection and that the fuse is securely
clamped. If possible check the batteries with an intelligent battery tester,
or replace them with a new set to see if the fault clears.
10.
Battery restored
A fault detected in the standby batteries has been cleared.
11.
Battery high
resistance
A fault has been detected in the standby batteries and they must be
replaced in order to resume correct operation.
12.
Detection head
removed
Ensure optical chamber
is correctly fitted
The Optical Chamber has been removed from a Multipoint detector.
13.
Device failed
Investigate the device
and reinitialise
The device has detected a failure in its processing circuitry or memory
and must be replaced.
14.
Device(s) lost
Investigate the device(s)
and reinitialise
The device is not reporting to panel on its ‘Poll Presence Count’
