
10,000 event memory for all fire, fault and system events - all filterable

Three access levels – access level 1 (general user), access level 2 (authorised user) and access level 3
(authorised systems engineer) with keyswitch entry to access level 2

A day/night function (building occupied/unoccupied) including detector sensitivity (high/low) and zone
dependency settings. Non-EN54-2 approved.

An investigation delay period function (programmable for length of time, which zone(s) it applies to and
whether or not it operates in day/night mode)

Individual sensitivity settings for each device

Real-time clock with automatic daylight saving time

Standard upload download software includes facility to upload company logos – even from a simple .gif

In addition to the mandatory requirements of EN 54-2, the panel meets the following criteria:

EN 54-2 Clause 7.8 'Output to fire alarm devices (option with requirements)' to enable an audible warning
to be sounded throughout the premises upon the detection of a fire condition or the operation of a manual
call point.

EN 54-2 Clause 7.11 'Delays to outputs (option with requirements)' of fire alarm devices (sounders) so
that an alarm may be verified before a premises is evacuated.

A selection of zone dependency functions (EN 54-2 Clause 7.12, Type A or B) as detailed below:
Clause 7.12.1 'Type A dependency (option with requirement)' - If there is an alarm from a detector,
-
the panel will look for a confirmatory alarm from the same or another detector in the same zone
before a full alarm is established. If there is no confirmatory alarm, the first alarm will automatically
reset.
Clause 7.12.2 'Type B dependency (option with requirement)' - As Type A except the confirmatory
-
alarm from another detector in the same zone or a different zone.
- Important Note: Type A & B dependencies should not be selected to operate together at the
same panel as the initiation of an alarm in one zone will cause a Type B dependency on another
zone, even if a Type A dependency has been set. Dependencies are selected using the panel's
ZTOOLS.

EN 54-2 Clause 7.13 'Alarm counter (option with requirements)' to record the number of instances the
panel enters the fire alarm condition. Note: The maximum number of instances the alarm counter can
store is 1000.

EN 54-2 Clause 8.3 'Fault signals from points (option with requirements)'.

EN 54-2 Clause 9.5 'Disablement of addressable points (option with requirements)'.

EN 54-2 Clause 10 'Test condition (option with requirements)' to allow the automatic resetting of zones
in alarm for testing purposes.
