2.  Keyboard - System Main Control Keys 

Panel is provided with a membrane type keyboard as shown 
on the previous page.  Local sounder will beep once every 
time a valid control key is depressed.  Sounder will beep 
twice anytime an invalid entry is made or user is scrolling too 
fast with the navigation keys.  Various system main control 
keys are described below: 

ACKNOWLEDGE:

  Every new event must be 

acknowledged.  Depressing this key will acknowledge 

alarms, supervisory and troubles while in their respective 
events screen.  The panel has alarm and trouble resound 
with lamp flash on subsequent events with alphanumeric 
annunciation.  The flashing lamp turns steady and the local 
sounder is silenced once all events have been 
acknowledged.  

 

As shown above, before any event is acknowledged, the 
Alphanumeric Display shows the three letter code 'NAK' in 
front of the event description.  Once acknowledged by the 
user, this code changes to 'ACK'.   
By default, each event has to be acknowledged 
independently.  The user can define in the TECHNICAL 
SETUP - PARAMETERS menu that holding the key for 2 
seconds will acknowledge all the current category of events 
at once.  When this feature is enabled, a second beep will 
confirm the command has been executed and all events will 
display the code 'ACK'. 

ALARM SILENCE / ACTIVATE:

  When alarms are 

sounding, pressing once on this key will turn off all 

the audible devices connected to the silenceable Notification 
Appliance Circuits (but not the Releasing Circuits).  The 
AUDIBLES SILENCE lamp will illuminate. 
When alarms are not sounding, pressing and holding the key 
for 2 seconds will activate the Alarm Condition, the 
Notification Appliance Circuits and the System Alarm Relays 
but not the Releasing Circuit(s).  The ALARM ACTIVATE 
function of the key is always available and both functions are 
latching, so will require a SYSTEM RESET to clear. 

SYSTEM RESET:

  The SYSTEM RESET key will 

only operate while the system is either displaying a 

normal operating screen for lamp test or once all events in 
the System Event Screens have been acknowledged.  Trying 
to reset the system while any event is still not acknowledged 
will silence the system buzzer momentarily, then make it 
beep twice and finally continuously again.  Once all events 
are duly acknowledged, a full reset sequence should take 
only a few seconds to complete. 

Under normal conditions, pressing on the SYSTEM RESET 
key make the local sounder beep once and will also perform 
a LAMP TEST function.   
Under alarm, supervisory or trouble conditions, once all 
events have been acknowledged and cleared, pressing once 
on this key resets the system and breaks power to all 
initiating device circuits, 4-wire smoke power and option 
boards.  It will also clear any activated output circuits.  
Should any alarm or trouble still exists after the reset, they 
will automatically re-activate the panel (subsequent alarm 
function).   

3.  Keyboard - Menu Navigation Keys 

UP / PREVIOUS:

  Pressing on this key once will scroll 

up the highlight to the PREVIOUS line on the 

Alphanumeric Display or increase the value of a digit.  
Pressing and holding the key will scroll fast up through the 
values of a digit. 

DOWN / NEXT:

 Pressing on this key once will scroll 

down the highlight through the NEXT line on the 

Alphanumeric Display or decrease the value of a digit.  
Pressing and holding the key will scroll fast down through the 
values of a digit. 

LEFT ARROW:

  Pressing on this key once will scroll 

the cursor (underscore) sideways to highlight the 

PREVIOUS digit or field on the Alphanumeric Display. 

RIGHT ARROW:

  Pressing on this key once will scroll 

the cursor (underscore) sideways to highlight the 

NEXT digit or field on the Alphanumeric Display. 
Every time a valid navigation key is depressed, the local 
sounder will beep once.  Holding the UP or DOWN key 
depressed for 2 seconds will return the cursor (highlight on 
the active item) directly up to the first or last item or field of 
any list, depending on the key selected. 
The UP or DOWN keys will also scroll up or down a full page 
in a list of items, thus accelerating navigation when used the 
same way.  
Depressing the same key again when already at the 
beginning or the end of a list will make the local sounder 
beep twice to indicate an invalid entry.  Any invalid entry will 
also make the sounder beep twice.  

ENTER:

  This key is used to make and confirm 

choices in the various user menus.  It is also used to 
validate an entry or select an option. 

While within the System Normal or System Event screens, 
pressing and holding the ENTER key for 2 seconds will give 
access to specific system data screens.   
First screen displays the SENSORS LIST / TEMPERATURE 
as shown below, where up to 6 sensors pressures can be 
displayed.  The cursor also highlights the screen name being 
accessed in the first line as shown below:
