MAIN (red) As per the green MAIN POWER LED. This LED will go ON during Mains power failure (the MAIN LED has memory). LOW BATTERY ON: - indicates that the control panel batteries are low, and therefore, in the event of blackout, will not be able to guarantee proper functioning of the con- trol panel.
Buzzer The control panel has an incorporated buzzer which signals the panel sta- tus. 3 sec. sound Signals PREALARM status. 1 sec. pause 1 sec. sound Signals FIXED Delay running. 0.5 sec. pause 1 sec. sound Signals - the PAS delay running. 2 sec.

FAULT status Faults are signalled by: Ø the FAULT LED (ON); Ø the FAULT type LED (MAIN - LOW BATTERY - BATTERY FAULT - GROUND - FUSES - LOGIC UNIT - ADDRESS - SAME ADDRESS); Ø a FAULT message on the control panel and Repeater displays (see figure 2); Ø...
Memory When the FAULT status ends, FAULT memorisation will be signalled by blinking on the associated LED. Reset The RESET button will force all the FAULT Outputs into Standby status and will delete the FAULT memory. Standby status will be restored on a FAULT Output when the FAULT sta- tus ends.
Panel PREALARM state ! Ø blinking on the ALARM and PREALARM LEDs (3 sec. ON - 1 sec. OFF); Ø blinking on the LEDs associated to the Input Point Software Zone (3 sec. ON - 1 sec. OFF); Ø an intermittent sound (3 sec. sound - 1 sec. pause) on the fire control panel and Repeater buzzers;...
Ø the Device type (S = Sensor or M = Module); Ø the Device address (01 through 99 or ZC = Conventional Zone). If the first ALARM was generated by a Software Zone it will show: Ø the Zone address (Z01 through Z16). Last Alarm As per the First Alarm but for the most recent Alarm.
Silence The SILENCE button can be used to force the Silenceable Output Points into the Standby status: Ø In NIGHT Mode - Silence status will be held for the programmed Silence Time; Ø In DAY Mode - Silence status will be held until the SILENCE button is pres- sed again.
Ø If SILENCE is activated during NIGHT Mode it will be held for the program- med time (see "Silence" paragraph). Auto Another of the FireClass100 features is the Automatic Alarm Threshold variation. Sensors are particularly sensitive, therefore, when persons are present in the protected ambient the Alarm Threshold must be increased by the non- modifiable default value (to allow for cigarette smoke etc.).
Disable The Disable option from the MODIFYING menu can be used to Disa- ble/Enable Devices, Zones and Bell Outputs. This option is dealt with in detail in the "MODIFYING" chapter. The DISABLED LED will go ON when a Device is Disabled. ALARMS and FAULTS etc.
