Alarm
Responding to an Alarm
Follow the response plan approved by
the local authority having jurisdiction.
When the MXL is installed, the
ACK nowledge key and audible Alarm
Silencing key (AUD SIL) on the MKB
are behind a locked door. The display,
LEDs, and display control keys are
visible and accessible. To acknowledge
an alarm or trouble, or to silence an
audible alarm, first unlock and open
the door.
How the System Annunciates Alarms
When a fire is detected, the System
causes the ALARM LED on the MKB
to flash, the System’s internal audible
to sound, the
AUDIBLE SILENCE LED
to flash, and the alphanumeric display
on the MKB to alternate in a sequence
among the three messages shown in
the following example. (This example
assumes that two alarms were received.)
Message 1:
1-001 [custom message]
002 [device type] IN ALR
Message 2:
1-001 [custom message]
002 [time/date] IN ALR
Message 3:
ALARMS=002 SUPERVISORY=000
TROUBLES=000 SECURITY=000
In addition, the System responds to
alarms with programmed output
functions such as other audible signals.
In the previous messages,
1-001
represents the address of the device
reporting the alarm.
On the display,
not all leading zeros are shown. If
your System includes a printer, note
that the leading zeros are not shown.
002
in the first message tells you that
this is the second (and the most recent)
of two alarms received.
The status information in the third
message reports the total of alarms,
supervisories, troubles, and security
conditions.
If your System includes a printer, it
prints a message from two to four lines
long similar to the following:
ALARM 1-1 11:59:59 Dec 31, 20xx
#1 [custom message], [device type]
In the above printed message,
ALARM indicates that the type of
occurrence is an alarm; 1-1 is the
device address; #1 is the number of
the alarm in the list of alarms; [custom
message] is a custom message
entered using the CSG-M Custom
Software Generator (See the
CSG-M
Programming Manual , P/N 315-
090381); [device type] is the type of
device which reported the alarm.
