THE EVENT SCREEN
As soon as a fire alarm or a fault message is present on the system, the control panel leaves the pilot
screen and the corresponding event is shown on the display. If you touch the screen in a location
without any text or menu function button, you can return to the pilot screen again. Thirty seconds
after the last operation, the event screen automatically reappears.
The event screen displays the information of up to 2 messages. Each message contains two lines of
text. Fire alarm messages always have priority over fault messages.
The upper two lines of text contain the information relating to the first message. The bottom two lines
of text show the information related to the last message. Using the menu buttons “PREVIOUS” and
“NEXT”, the intermediate messages can be displayed on the upper two lines of text of the screen.
TYPES OF MESSAGES:
1.
MESSAGES FROM A DETECTOR LOOP:
The first line of text states the type of message (e.g. ALARM) and the sequence number of the message
(e.g. 1/3 is the first message out of a total of 3 messages). The second text line indicates the name of
the detector loop that caused the message.
AN OVERVIEW OF THE TYPE OF MESSAGES:
-
« ALARM »: fire alarm message from an automatic smoke or heat detector, a manual call point or
an alarm contact from another detection system (e.g. a gas detection control panel).
-
« EVACUATION »: alarm message from a detector loop equipped with evacuation call points or
key switches. These detector loops have the same authority as the control button “EVACUATION”
on the front of the MD300 control panel.
-
« OPEN »: technical fault caused by an interruption in the wiring of the loop or by the removal of
a fire detector from its base.
-
« SHORT »: technical fault caused by a short circuit in the wiring of the loop.
