Alarm
When flashing the respective VIP panic alarm has been activated
Once the Operator’s Base Station is switched on it is constantly listening for a panic message from
the Key Fob VIP panic button. This operation is explained in a later section. If the panic button is
pressed the Base Station will automatically sound an alarm and flash
the respective alarm LED.
This
alarm can be cancelled by pressing and holding the button on the front panel until the alarm stops.
Switching the Base Station off
Regardless of whether the unit is running on mains power or UPS power the Base Station is
switched off by pressing and holding the button on the front for four seconds, after which time any
lit LEDs will be switched off, indicating that the unit has powered down.
If the DC supply is simply disconnected the unit will switch to the UPS battery backup supply. It will
then be necessary to press the button for four seconds to fully power the unit down.
