Fire Alarms - Bosch Security System User Manual

Fire Alarms

Fire alarms are the highest priority events. When a fire
point activates, your command center emits a pulsating
high-pitched fire tone. Evacuate all occupants and
investigate for smoke or fire. Ensure that all occupants
know the difference between the burglary tone and the
fire tone. The tone sounds for the time set by your
security company.
The command center display shows the point text of the
first point that went into fire alarm and displays the
message Enter Passcode + ENTER key to Silence.
Silencing Fire Alarms
Entering a personal passcode with the proper authority
level silences a fire alarm and disarms the system if it
was armed.
The system will now display *Alarm Silenced* ... and
then the number of points in alarm (# FIRE ALARMS)
and then the area text appears (AREA 1 NAME TEXT)
followed by the custom text of all the points in alarm
(SMOKE DETECTOR), in the order of occurrence.

If there is more than one point causing an alarm, the
display will show each point for three seconds before
showing the next one.
When the last alarm is shown, the next display is the
first alarm.
Your system may be programmed so that you cannot
silence some fire alarms until the fire event clears.
Entering COMMAND 4 clears the scrolling point text
from the display.
The *Alarm Silenced* message will continue to
alternate with idle text as a reminder that it is still
possible to view the text of the points in alarm by using
the View Memory function. See VIEW MEMORY ?
(Command 40) for more information.
To clear the event memory and remove the *Alarm
Silenced* message from the display, press the Clear
Display> soft key.
The display will show the instructions for clearing the
message. Enter a valid passcode and press the Clear>
soft key.
