How to enter access level three
Access level 3 can be entered in one of two ways:
(1)
By pressing the Menu button on the panel’s front, scrolling down to ENTER ACCESS LEVEL 3 and
pressing the Accept
4
button. When you have done this, the following prompt will appear:
Enter the four-digit access level 3 code using the
5
(1)
4
(2)
6
(3)
3
(4) buttons as appropriate.
The default code is 4 4 4 4 (four presses of the
3
button). If this does not work, the code may
have been changed. As soon as the code has been entered correctly, you will be taken into
access level 3 (see pages 19 to 33).
(2)
By entering access level 2 as detailed in the panel’s separate user manual, scrolling down to
ENTER ACCESS LEVEL 3 and repeating the process described above.
In access level 3, the panel’s Silence/Resound Sounders, Control Panel Reset and Investigate buttons
become active and you can:
• Scroll through any fire, pre-alarm or fault conditions which are displayed on the panel’s LCD
• View any disablements or zones that are in test (if applicable)
• Change the entry codes to access levels 2 and 3 from their factory default settings
• Connect the panel to a compatible PC for system programming
• Set the panel up to belong to a non-redundant network of eight XFP main panels, or allow it to
have up to eight XFP repeaters connected to it
• Gain access to a wide range of commissioning functions including auto loop learn, device
calibration and group/zone assignment
• Gain access to a wide range of engineering test and fault finding functions
• Ascertain software revision numbers, loop current and PSU statistics
• Enable/disable earth faults
• Set the time the panel enters and exits day (building occupied) and night (building unoccupied) mode
• Access all of the panel’s access level 2 menu options as described in the panel’s separate user manual.
This section of the engineering manual explains in detail the various functions available via the
access level 3 menu options. (Note that information on how fire, pre-alarm and fault conditions are
reported, and how the panel’s control buttons operate, can be found in the separate user
manual/log book.)
Fitting the panel’s NVM ‘memory unlock’ link
To allow site-specific changes to be made to the panel’s
non-volatile memory, the NVM ‘memory unlock’ link must
be fitted to the Main Control PCB, as shown right. It is
recommended that you fit this link as a matter of course
whenever you are in access level 3.
Remember to re-lock the memory (remove the link) when
programming is complete to guard against data corruption.
If you do not re-lock the memory, a reminder message will
appear when you leave access level 3.
