6. OPERATION
6.1 Alarm indicators
The status of an alarm channel is indicated as follows by the red LED’s:
•
LED off: no alarm.
•
LED on: alarm.
•
LED blinks: alarm coming up. The alarm has been detected at the input of the reporter, but is not
being relayed since the set alarm delay time for this channel has not yet elapsed. The indicator will
switch off when the alarm expires in the course of this period. In case the alarm still exists after the
determined time, the indicator will light up continuously and the message will be reported.
6.2 Alarm channel selection keys
Using these keys, the message transmission can be switched off for each alarm channel (at Octalarm-
T16: per two alarm channels). The green indicator in the key lights up in case the passing of the report
is enabled. To avoid the transmission of the message being interrupted accidentally (e.g. while
cleaning), the key has to be kept depressed when turning off.
When an alarm channel is switched off (green LED off), an incoming alarm on the relevant
channel will not be reported.
6.3 Device malfunction indicators
The Octalarm periodically checks the major connections and facilities. A defect will be signalled. The
following malfunctions will be reported using individual LED’s:
•
battery failure
•
mains failure
•
telephone line interrupted or a failure in the mobile network (model -G).
When the telephone line indicator lights up without reason, this function can be switched off. See
