4.3 Normal Operation
With no alarms or troubles in the system, the display message is
System All Normal
along with the
current time and date as shown below. To set the time and date, refer to the appropriate section in
this manual.
The FACP performs the following functions at regular intervals in Normal mode:
Monitors AC input voltage and battery voltage
Monitors and reports status option cards and control panel
Refreshes LCD display and updates time
Scans control panel keypad for key presses
Tests memory
Updates and reads all communications busses (EIA-485, etc.)
I3 smoke detectors will be polled for maintenance and freeze conditions on initial entry
into Normal mode. Thereafter, each device will be polled every hour for freeze and every
four hours for maintenance conditions
Note: To ensure that the system is functioning properly, the FACP will perform a freeze check five
minutes after the panel is reset, followed by a maintenance check. If there is no freeze or
maintenance condition, the panel will continue to monitor for freeze conditions every hour and
maintenance conditions every four hours.
