FA-200 Series Installation and Operation Manual

23

Common Supervisory LED (FA-204 or FA-204E only)

The amber Common Supervisory LED illuminates steadily when there is a supervisory alarm in the panel resulting 
from any latching or non-latching supervisory circuit. The LED turns off if all non-latching supervisory circuits are 
restored and there are no active latching supervisory circuits. Latching supervisory alarms remain active until the 
panel is reset.

Common Trouble LED

The Common Trouble indicator flashes amber (at 20 flashes per minute) when the panel detects any  trouble 
condition. It turns off when all non-latching troubles are cleared.

Remote Trouble LED (FA-204 or FA-204E only)

The Remote Failure indicator illuminates amber if the panel detects trouble at a city tie or dialler module, or 
communication or local trouble with a remote annunciator. It turns off once these conditions return to normal.

Fire Drill LED

The amber Fire Drill LED illuminates steadily while fire drill is active.

Auxiliary Disconnect LED

The Auxiliary Disconnect Indicator flashes amber (20 flashes per minute) when the Auxiliary Disconnect switch is 
activated. It turns off when the switch is activated a second time. When on, the Auxiliary Disconnect LED indicates 
that common alarm and  common supervisory relays, and any RM-204 / RM-208 relays are not activated. The 
trouble relay is activated. If installed, dialler or polarity reversal and city tie modules are also inactive, causing a 
trouble condition.

Signal Silence LED

The amber Signal Silence LED flashes at the trouble flash rate when indication circuits are silenced either by the 
Signal Silence button or by the Auto Signal Silence timer. It turns off when the signals are re-sounded by a 
subsequent alarm.

Battery Trouble LED

The Battery Trouble LED flashes amber at the trouble flash rate when the battery is either low (below 20.4 VDC) or 
disconnected.

Ground Fault LED

The Ground Fault LED flashes amber at the trouble flash rate when the Ground Fault Detector detects a ground 
fault on any field wiring. It turns off when the ground fault is cleared.

Test LED

The Test LED illuminates amber when the fire alarm panel is in walk test mode.

Circuit Status LEDs

These LEDs indicate the status of initiating circuits. They illuminate

Alarm:

 Steady red

Alarm Verification or waterflow retard in progress:

 fast flashing red (120 flashes per minute)

Pending Alarm: 

(see 

Circuit Disconnect Switches 

on the following page) fast flashing red (120 flashes per 

minute)

Supervisory:

 Steady amber

Circuit Trouble LEDs

These LEDs indicate trouble for initiating and indicating circuits. They flash (20 flashes per minute) for any field 
wiring fault, or if the circuit has been disconnected.
