ACCESS LEVEL 2 (Authorised User) CONTROLS & MENU OPTIONS

Access level 2 is available to authorised, trained personnel only.  At this level, the panel’s
SILENCE/RESOUND SOUNDERS, CONTROL PANEL RESET and INVESTIGATE buttons become active and
you are able to:

•  Scroll through any fire, pre-alarm or fault conditions that are displayed on the panel’s display 
•  View any disablements or zones that are being tested (if applicable)
•  Enable or disable zones, sounders, outputs, relays and devices (as appropriate)
•  Print, display and/or reset the panel’s event history
•  Set the time and date
•  Change the entry code to access level 2 from its factory default.

Details of how to use the panel’s SILENCE/RESOUND SOUNDERS, CONTROL PANEL RESET and
INVESTIGATE buttons can be found below.  

Entering access level 2

ON PUSH BUTTON VERSIONS OF THE PANEL:-

Entry to access level 2 requires the input of a special four digit code. Press the MENU button on the
panel’s front and when the ENTER ACCESS LEVEL 2? prompt appears, press the accept 

4

button.  The

following message will appear on the display:-

Enter the access level 2 code using the 

5

(1) 

4

(2) 

6

(3)

3

(4) buttons as appropriate.  The default code

is 3 3 3 3 (four presses of the

6

button).  If this does not work, the code may have been changed by an

authorised user/engineer.  A record of any changes should appear on the System Setup Data Chart on
page 20 of this user manual.  If they do not, contact your maintenance company for advice.  

ON KEYSWITCH VERSIONS OF THE PANEL:-

Entry to access level 2 is gained by turning the panel’s keyswitch to the armed position.  

Silencing the alarm sounders 

To silence any active alarm sounders, enter access level 2 (see above) and momentarily press the
SILENCE/RESOUND SOUNDERS button.  The alarm sounders will cease to sound and the panel’s
General Fire and relevant Fire Zone LEDs will go steady. 

Should a fire condition occur on another zone whilst the alarm sounders are silenced, the panel:- 

• Will sound the sounders programmed for activation by the new zone(s) in alarm

• Will flash its General Fire and appropriate Zone LED(s) for any new zone(s) in alarm

•  May, if programmed, automatically reactivate the silenced alarm sounders and flash 

any related Fire Zone LED(s).

Resounding the alarm sounders 

Momentarily pressing the SILENCE/RESOUND SOUNDERS button when the alarm sounders are
silenced will resound them.  Pressing the SILENCE/RESOUND SOUNDERS button again will silence the
alarm sounders. 

Resetting the panel 

After the cause of an alarm has been cleared and the alarm sounders have been silenced (see above),
the panel can be reset by pressing the CONTROL PANEL RESET button.       

The panel will give a double beep to indicate the reset process has started and, after a few seconds,
the Fire Zone LEDs and General Fire LED will go out to indicate the process is complete.  If there are
still any fire conditions on any zones, the panel will go back into alarm as before. 

Note that the panel’s INVESTIGATE button is only active if an engineer has programmed one or
more zones to operate with a 1st-stage investigation delay period (see page 10 for detailed
information on this feature).
