DISABLEMENT
On the Simplicity, there are 2 disablement options. A whole zone of detectors can be disabled, or an individual
point can be disabled. Both types of disablement can be used at the same time if required.
ZONE DISABLEMENT
To aid commissioning and assist routine maintenance checks, any of the zones or the loop sounders can be
disabled.
When a zone is disabled, the panel will not respond to any fault or fire signals it receives from DETECTORS from
that zone. Call points will remain operational.
This might be used if the system requires routine maintenance, and the customer needs the system to continue
running, but doesn’t want spurious false alarms.
The panel will respond in the usual manner to any events in any non-disabled zones.
The Simplicity also allows the loop sounders to be disabled. If they are disabled, the panel will not start any
sounders in an alarm condition.
TO PROGRAMME ZONE (OR SOUNDERS) AS DISABLED
Any number of zones (or the sounders) can be disabled, but it is good practice to only disable one zone at a time.
1.
Press ENTER button, then enter access code 123.
2.
Press GENERAL DISABLEMENT button and the screen will
show: ZONE DISABLEMENT ZONE 1. The panel is now in
SELECT DISABLEMENT MODE.
3.
Press NEXT (or PREV) until the required zone or loop sounders is
DISPLAYED. Press ENTER button to disable this section. The screen
will now show that the zone is disabled, and the GENERAL
DISABLEMENT LED will be on. This section is now disabled.
(NOTE: Call points in this zone will still be active. To disable the
call points as well, disable them individually as points – see next section)
4.
If more than one zone (or sounder) needs to be disabled, then press
NEXT (or PREV) again until the required zone (or sounder) is selected.
5.
If the panel needs to be taken out of SELECT DISABLEMENT MODE (eg to silence a fault on another
part of the system), either press GENERAL DISABLEMENT button, or press cancel.
6.
Once all the maintenance work has been done, the zones need to be enabled again. If the panel is still in
SELECT DISABLEMENT MODE, jump to paragraph 7, otherwise, press GENERAL DISABLEMENT
button. (if access is not on, you will have to enter the code 123, then press General disablement again. The
panel is now in SELECT DISABLEMENT MODE
7.
Press the NEXT (or PREV) button until the disabled zone is displayed on the screen. Press ENTER button
to de-select disablement. Scroll to any other disabled zone and enable in the same way. When all zones are
enabled again, the GENERAL DISABLEMENT LED will turn off. Either press GENERAL
DISABLEMENT button, or press cancel to return the system to normal. (NOTE: This will also enable any
points individually disabled in that zone)
