5.1 Maintenance / Service
Maintenance is necessary for the proper operation of the fire alarm control panel as the function of the system
parts can be affected by environmental conditions and ageing. Maintenance is regulated by national standards
(e.g. DIN VDE 0833 in Germany) and guidelines. In addition to the safety directives and notes in this
documentation, these standards and guidelines, as well as local requirements for the operational location of the
fire alarm control panel must be observed.
Depending on the software and system-specific customer data programming of your panel, its
functions and display representations might differ from the ones described in this manual!
The terminal connections and connections shown in this installation manual relate only to the
characteristics of the panel operating system software specific to the Federal Republic of
Germany [D].

A complete system check must be carried out after commissioning and for each modification of the
customer data programming!
