Control Panel
Mounting the Control Panel
First
identify the proposed location for the control panel. Ensure that the control panel will be easily
accessible and that account is taken of any subsequent work that may affect access.
The control panel should be located at the most likely point of access for the fire services. It should be
mounted on a flat, vertical wall at a height where the indicators may be seen without difficulty.
Do not locate the control panel at high level where stepladders or other access equipment may
be required, in spaces with restricted access, or in a position that may require access panels to
be removed.
Do not locate the control panel where extremes of temperature or humidity may occur, or where
there is any possibility of condensation or water ingress.
Like all electronic equipment, the control panel may be affected by extreme environmental conditions.
The position selected for its installation should therefore be clean and dry, not subjected to high levels
of vibration or shock and at least 2 metres away from any pager or radio transmitting equipment.
Ambient temperatures should be within the range given within the Technical Data section, e.g. not
directly over a radiator, heater or in direct sunlight.
In common with all microprocessor-controlled panels, the control panel may operate erratically or may
be damaged if subjected to lightning induced transients. Proper earth/ground connections will greatly
reduce susceptibility to this problem.
