Silencing An Alarm - Eaton i-on16 Administrator's And User Manual

Silencing an Alarm

In an alarm the sirens run for a limited time set by the installer (a maximum
15 minutes for intruder, Hold Up and tamper alarms).
If you return to the system while the sirens are running you can silence the
siren as follows:
1. Make sure it is safe to enter the
premises:
2. Either key in your access code
OR present your proximity tag (see
page 9).
The navigation key glows red and
the bottom line of the display
shows the first zone to alarm.
The bottom line alternates once
per second, for example:
Press  to reset the system.
3.
The system returns to standby,
and is ready to set again. (The top
line may show the installer's
name.)
Notes:
1. The control unit logs the alarm information. You can
reset the system (step 4 above) without losing
information about the cause of the alarm. See page
48 for instructions on how to read the log.
2. The alarm system may be connected to a
communications network, and send alarm messages
to one or more alarm receiving centres. If the alarm
started by accident, phone the relevant centres and
tell them.
