MASS NOTIFICATION SYSTEM SILENCE
When the voice system amplifiers are activated for mass notification (MNS), they cannot be silenced using
the standard control panel silence switches. The MNS Silence function provides a means for the system
operator to silence the MNS system from the control panel (local or network). Silencing the MNS system
does not impact the operation of any active Fire Alarm inputs or outputs.
From the Maintenance Menu 2 screen, press the F2 button to silence the mass notification system.

SWITCH OPERATION
When configured for City of Chicago operation, the CyberCat panel’s DRILL and SILENCE switches on the
main display are disabled in order to comply with local code requirements. The Switch Timeout screen allows
the user to temporarily enable the DRILL and SILENCE switches for a period of 0 – 24 hours for inspection
and testing purposes. This menu option only becomes visible if the panel is configured for COC operation
and a successful factory level password is entered. From the Maintenance Menu 2, press the F3 button to
access the screen:
