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:-
Entering the user access code (default code is 0001), which will cause the CONTROLS ACTIVE LED to light.
Press the STOP SOUNDERS button and the SILENCE BUZZER button.
If there is no sign of fire, and are suitably trained, 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, stop 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 panel is showing a SUPPLY FAULT, check if there is a power cut to the building. Check that the mains supply to the fire alarm
has not been turned off.
All other fault indications will need the service engineer’s attention. Call the engineer as soon as possible. Note that when the
Smart Connect panel is in a fault condition, the majority of the system may 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 entering the user access code and pressing the SILENCE BUZZER button.
Details of the service company can be seen by pressing the
icon.
