ZONE 1 30 SECOND INPUT DELAY 

Zone needs to be triggered for 30 seconds 
continuously before an alarm is generated, 
programmable for each zone. 
(Prevents spurious alarms)

AD 

ACTIVATE ALARM DELAY 

 

DO NOT set option codes that are not listed in the above table, setting of unlisted options 
may have unintended and serious consequences. 
 
Once the required configuration options have been set, the Access level 3 switch 

must

 be 

returned to its normal position. The General fault indicator will remain lit if the Access level 3 
switch is not turned off. 

 
Internal Switches 
Watchdog Reset switch (W/Dog Reset) 

If for any reason the microprocessor in the control panel fails to carry out its operation 
correctly it will attempt to restart itself. This process is called a “watchdog” and the control 
panel must record and indicate these events. 
If a watchdog event occurs, the control panel will show the FAULT and SYSTEM FAULT 
LEDs on the front panel, the CPU fault LED inside the panel and the buzzer will sound. This 
fault can only be cleared by pressing the 

Watchdog Reset

 button on the PCB inside the 

control panel. This is a serious failure and the control panel buzzer will continue to sound 
until the watchdog activation is reset. 

 
Processor Reset  

Once started, the microprocessor controlling the panel should continue to run the panel 
continuously without interruption. If the microprocessor fails to run, it can be reset by 
operating the 

Processor Reset

 button on the PCB. 

This should not normally be necessary but should be done as a matter of course if the 
system is behaving abnormally. The system should resume normal operation within a couple 
of seconds of pressing the 

Processor Reset

 button. 

 
Write Enable 

Changes to the configuration as listed in table above require that the changes be stored in 
the control panel memory. To enable the memory to be written to it is necessary to operate 
the Write Enable slide switch.
