Operation of the Control Panel
2.4.2 How to Respond to a Prealarm Warning
If the control panel indicates a Prealarm, the operator can do the following:
1. Press the SILENCE BUZZER key to acknowledge the Prealarm.
2. Press the MORE INFO soft key to display the MORE INFORMATION screen and view additional information on the device and
possibly preprogrammed text for recommended action. (Refer to Figure 1.9 on page 14 for an example of this screen and an
explanation of its fields.)
3. Investigate and correct the condition causing the Prealarm.
NOTE: An Alert Prealarm automatically restores to normal when the detector obscuration reading drops below the programmed
prealarm level.
4. Press the RESET key if the Prealarm message does not clear when the condition causing it is cleared.
A subsequent alarm condition for this detector clears the Action indication from the panel display.
2.4.3 Interpreting Type ID Codes
The Type ID code that displays in a prealarm message is related to the type and function of the detector point that initiates the prealarm.
For example, a detector with a SMOKE(PHOTO) Type ID code means that the detector is a photoelectric type detector. If the Type ID
code is unfamiliar, refer to Appendix A, "Software Type ID Codes", on page 53. This appendix is an alphabetical list of Type ID codes
and an explanation of each.

2.5 Supervisory Signal Event

2.5.1 How the Control Panel Indicates an Active Supervisory
The system indicates a Supervisory alarm when a monitor module point programmed with a supervisory Type Code activates. The panel
will react differently depending on whether or not there are higher priority unacknowledged events.
When no higher priority unacknowledged events are exist, the control panel:
• Produces a warbling audible tone (if the piezo is enabled)
• Activates the Supervisory relay
• Illuminates the
• Displays a Type Code that indicates the type of supervisory signal being generated
• Displays
SUPERVISORY
• Sends a Supervisory message to the History buffer, installed printer and annunciators.
When an unacknowledged event with a higher priority exists, the control panel retains the indications of the higher priority event (the
message, lit LED, audible tone, etc.) while activating the Supervisory relay if it is selected for supervision, flashing the
LED, and sending a Supervisory message to the history buffer, installed printer and annunciators. If there are silenced alarms (the
LED is lighted), a Supervisory alarm will resound the panel sounder.
DEVICES SILENCED
Following is a typical supervisory message that would appear on a panel display:
2.5.2 How to Respond to an Active Supervisory
If the control panel indicates a Supervisory condition, the operator can do the following:
1. Press the SILENCE BUZZER key to acknowledge the Supervisory message.
2. Press the MORE INFO soft key to display the MORE INFORMATION screen and view additional information on the device and
possibly preprogrammed text for recommended action. (Refer to Figure 1.9 on page 14 for an example of this screen and an
explanation of its fields.)
3. Investigate and correct the condition causing the Supervisory.
NOTE: A supervisory condition caused by a device with a "tracking" type code automatically clears and restores the panel to
normal when the condition causing its activation disappears.
