1X-E4 Series Operation Manual
Public user level operation
Public user level operations are those that can be performed by any user. No
password is required to perform tasks at this level.
Public user level operation lets you:
• Acknowledge a system event and silence the control panel buzzer
• Activate an evacuation alarm
• Cancel an active fire routing delay
• Perform a control panel LED and buzzer test
• Display local indications only (for control panels with repeater functionality)
Acknowledging a system event and silencing the control panel buzzer
To acknowledge a system event and silence the control panel buzzer, press the
Panel Silence button.
A steady Panel Silence LED indicates that the buzzer was silenced and that all
current events are acknowledged.
Activating an evacuation alarm
To activate an evacuation alarm in all evacuation areas, press the All Sounders
Start button, and then press the Confirm button.
To activate an evacuation alarm in a single evacuation area, press the
corresponding evacuation area button, and then press the Confirm button.
Cancelling an active fire routing delay
If a fire routing delay is enabled and active, press the Fire Routing Start button or
the Fire Routing Delay button to cancel the delay and activate fire routing
immediately.
A fire routing delay is indicated as follows:
• Steady Fire Routing Delay LED: A delay is enabled.
• Flashing Fire Routing Delay LED during a fire alarm: A configured delay is
active. Fire routing is activated when the configured delay elapses or when
the delay is cancelled.
A fire alarm activated by a manual call point overrides any configured delay and
activates fire routing immediately.
