LCD FIP DISPLAYS (CONTINUED)
The LED indicators may be either:
(a)
Unlit (OFF); or
(b)
Slow Flashing (SF), every 2 seconds; or
(c)
Flashing (F), every half a second; or
(d)
Rapid Flashing (RF), 10 times per second; or
(e)
Steady (ON).
In normal operation all LEDs are OFF, with the exception of the green "MAINS ON" LED
indicator which is ON, and for New Zealand panels the "NORMAL" LED will be ON flashing.
An internal sounder (buzzer) is used to alert the operator to certain conditions.
A detailed description of all indications is contained in Chapter 4 "Interpreting the Display".

LCD KEYPAD INTRODUCTION
The FIP LCD keypad is shown in Figure 2.4 and is divided into two sections, namely:
(a)
"Fire Fighter's Control & Indicating Facility" (FFCIF):
The area within the red border, containing 5 keys, 3 LEDs, and the LCD.
(b)
All other keys and indicators used for zone resetting, isolating, testing and
information recall functions.
The two keyboard sections are not, however, entirely independent and some functions
require use of both keypad sections.
If a keypress is valid the sounder will give a short beep whenever a key is pressed.
A longer duration error beep will sound to draw attention to illegal key presses. The FIP LCD
may also display an error message. If this occurs, try the command or entry again.
For more details on specific operating instructions refer to Chapters 5, 6, 7, and 8, for
"Brigade", "System", "Zone" and "Point" functions respectively.
