Warnings
This Option can be used to obtain information about warning conditions on the panel.
A warning condition is created whenever a detector device reaches its limit drift of compensation.
This does not affect the performance or operation of the panel in detecting and responding to fire
alarm conditions from the device. It will mean the device is more sensitive and could react to lower
levels smoke stimuli resulting in false alarms. This function is normally used by the service engineer
to view which devices need to be cleaned and no indication is given of this condition on the normal
displays. A fault condition will occur when the device becomes dirty.
