Note that the controls can only be used after the keyswitch has been turned to the
CONTROLS ENABLED (ON) position.
As the Premier EX8 is a combined Extinguishing & fire alarm control panel, it is
possible that both the extinguishing section, and the fire alarm section are in alarm at
the same time. If this occurs, the reset Fire Panel button can be used to reset the
Zone alarms, leaving the extinguishing section active. After the pre-programmed
Reset Inhibit delay, the reset Extinguishing System button can then be used to reset
the extinguishing section.
If the Extinguishing system has been through it`s release cycle, and the zones that
triggered the release are still in alarm, the reset fire panel button must be pressed
first to reset the zones in alarm, before the reset extinguishing system button can be
pressed.
