What to do if the Fire Alarm Panel shows an Alarm (Red LED)
Write down the LCD reading and which LEDs are lit (either in the log book, or on a piece of
paper for transferring to the log book later)
Follow the building procedures for fire alarm activation.
When the building has been evacuated, the sounders can be silenced by turning the key to the
on position and pressing the Start/Stop Sounder button, then pressing the Silence Tone
button. (Note that the sounders may take up to 8 seconds to stop)
If there is no sign of fire, investigate the area that reported the fire CAREFULLY. Check for
a detector or a call point with its RED LED lit.
If a detector caused the alarm, look for any innocent phenomena that could have activated it
(Steam, cooking food, exhaust smoke, excessive dust etc can all activate a smoke detector.).
If anything is found, try to clear the room by opening a window.
If a fire is discovered, either tackle it with fire extinguishers if suitably trained, or call the
fire brigade.
To reset the panel press the reset button.
If the panel goes back into alarm, silence the sounders and call the engineer.
What to do if the Fire Alarm Panel shows a Fault (Yellow LED)
Write down the LCD reading and which LEDs are lit (either in the log book, or on a piece of
paper for transferring to the log book later)
If the supply fault LED is lit, check if there is a power cut to the building. Check that the
mains supply to the fire alarm has not been turned off.
If the Prealarm LED is on, this could be either a detector that needs servicing, or the start of
a fire (or other phenomena that can activate the detector). Investigate the indicated location
and take appropriate action.
All other fault indications will need the service engineer’s attention. Call the engineer as
soon as possible. Note that when the alarm is in a fault condition, the majority of the system
will still function correctly. Extra vigilance should be paid in the area with the fault. The
alarm may not be operational in this area.
The panel`s internal buzzer can be silenced by turning the key to the on position and pressing
the Silence Tone button. If the fault comes and goes, the panel will buzz every time the fault
happens. If this is not acceptable you may be able to disable the zone that has the fault. (see
