Fault conditions
If a part of the fire alarm system fails due to detector failure, wiring fault, etc.:
• one or more of the panel’s Fault indicators will flash
• the panel’s internal sounder will pulse
• the panel’s display will show an appropriate fault message (in the case of a faulty manual call
point, for example, the zone on which the faulty call point is located will be displayed):
Should there be more than one
fault condition, the top right side of
the display will read ‘More.
↑↓
’ and
you can scroll through them using
the panel’s
5
or
6
buttons.
Press the More Information button to view additional details about the displayed fault. For device
specific faults, the actual device that has triggered the fault condition will be shown. For other faults,
information pertinent to that fault will be displayed instead (if available).
For device specific faults, pressing the More Information button again will display the unique ID code
and address location of the faulty device for the benefit of service engineers, etc.
