Fire Alarm System Operation
Introduction to Fire Alarm System Operation
Your fire alarm system (if installed) is on 24 hours a day, providing
continuous protection. In the event of an emergency, the installed
smoke and heat detectors will automatically send signals to your
Control/Communicator, triggering a loud interrupting sound from the
keypad. An interrupted sound will also be produced by optional
exterior sounders. A FIRE message will appear at your keypad and
remain on until you silence the alarm.
In Case of Fire Alarm
1. Should you become aware of a fire emergency before your
detectors sense the problem, go to your nearest keypad and
manually initiate an alarm by pressing the panic key assigned as
FIRE emergency (if programmed by the installer) and hold down
for at least 2 seconds.
2. Evacuate all occupants from the premises.
3. If flames and/or smoke are present, leave the premises and notify
your local Fire Department immediately.
Silencing a Fire Alarm
1. Silence the alarm by entering your code and pressing the OFF
key. To clear the alarm from the display, enter your code and
press the OFF key again.
2. If the keypad does not indicate a READY condition after the
second OFF sequence, press the READY key to display the
zone(s) that are faulted. Be sure to check that smoke detectors
are not responding to smoke or heat producing objects in their
vicinity. In this case, eliminate the source of heat or smoke.
3. If this does not remedy the problem, there may still be smoke in
the detector. Clear it by fanning the detector for about 30
seconds.
4. When the problem has been corrected, clear the display by
entering your code and pressing the OFF key.
