The Display First Alarm alarm list feature (which enables the automatic display
of the first alarm) is configurable via the Programmer (disabled by default). If
this option has been programmed for your panel, the Operator Interface Panel
shows the first (oldest) alarm whenever a single or multiple alarm conditions is
reported. The panel LCD display displays the first alarm instead of the "alarm
totals" screen display. The following figures demonstrate how a display might
appear during an alarm sequence if the Display First Alarm option is selected.
