Failing to Set the System
The system fails to set if there is an open or fault condition detected on an alarm zone when the FULLSET or
PARTSET A/B option is selected. The Keypad displays the zone number and
description.
To set the system, locate the zone and close or fix the fault. Repeat the FULLSET
or PARTSET A/B operation.
3.5
Force Setting the System
The system can be forced to set while an alarm zone is still open. This operation
inhibits the open zone and sets the system as normal.
If a user has the right to FORCE SET the system and an alarm zone is open,
when the FULLSET or PARTSET option is selected, the Keypad buzzer beeps
and the first line of the display indicates the open zone. The user is presented with
the options to QUIT (left soft key) or FORCE (right soft key).
QUIT: Selecting this option aborts the attempt to set the system and returns the
user to User Programming.
FORCE: Selecting this option inhibits the open zone and forces the system to set.
3.6
Unsetting the System
To UNSET a system:
1. Enter a valid user code. The Keypad displays a prompt to unset the
system.
2. To UNSET the system, press SELECT (right soft key). The Keypad
display indicates that the system is unset on the bottom line of the
display for approximately five seconds. After this time has elapsed, the
bottom line is cleared.
3. If the alarm has been activated, entering the user code silences all
bells and strobes and the message PANEL DISARMED displays on the
Keypad for approximately five seconds.
4. The source of the alarm condition displays on the Keypad and the Alert
LED flashes. The Keypad continues to display the alert until the alert is
restored.
3.7
Restoring an Alarm Activation (Alert)
Alert conditions on the SigNET are indicated on the Keypad by a flashing yellow Alert LED and by activation
of the buzzer. The Keypad indicates the location and nature of the alert condition. The ability of a user to
restore alerts depends on the security grade setting of the system (in accordance with standards [1]). An alert
condition can only be restored once the fault or zone that caused the alert has been physically reset to its
normal operating state; e.g. an open zone has been closed again or a severed E-BUS connection re-
established.
Users may be restricted from using the Restore feature if an Engineer
chooses not to select ‘Restore’ within the User Rights menu for select
users. Users who cannot restore an alert receive fault messages on the
Keypad until the zone or fault condition is either inhibited or isolated.
Alarm conditions on the SigNET 200/300 are indicated on the Keypad
by a flashing yellow Alert LED (see Section 2, Using the Keypad) and
by activation of the buzzer. The Keypad displays the location and
nature of the alert condition.
To restore an alert condition triggered by a zone opening:
1. Locate the open zone (displays on the Keypad) and restore the
alarm sensor to its normal state by closing the door or window.
2. Enter a valid user code and select the RESTORE option (right
soft key). The zone causing the alert displays on the top line.
