ALARM OPERATION OF THE FIRE ALARM SYSTEM CONTROL UNIT
An alarm is indicated by the following conditions:
A red zone ALARM L.E.D. lights.
The yellow SYSTEM TROUBLE L.E.D. lights in a pulsating manner.
The trouble buzzer sounds in a pulsating manner.
The building alarm signals activate.
If a remote annunciator or trouble unit is used, the alarm and/or trouble is also indicated
at the remote location.
If a remote station type of city connection is used, an alarm signal is sent to the
remote station.
If a local energy type of city connection is used, an alarm signal is sent to the fire
department.
Optional alarm relays may also activate to serve various supplementary functions.
Optional trouble relays will also activate to serve various supplementary functions.
TO SILENCE THE TROUBLE BUZZER:
Push down the TROUBLE SILENCE switch to the silenced position.
TO SILENCE THE BUILDING ALARM SIGNALS:
Momentarily push down the SIGNAL SILENCE switch.
The SIGNAL SILENCED L.E.D. will light, indicating the building alarm signals are off.
An alarm condition in additional zones will re-activate the building alarm signals
and the SIGNAL SILENCED L.E.D. will go out. The building alarm signals may again
be silenced by repeating the procedure above.
NOTE: 1.) If zone #2 has been programmed for use with waterflow switches for
non-silencable signals, once zone #2 is alarmed the building alarm
signals cannot be silenced.
2.) If the 15213A March Time/Temporal Signaling Module is used,
the signals on Signal Circuit #2 are not silencable.
TO RESET AFTER AN ALARM:
First, the device which caused the alarm must be reset.
Manual Pull Staion
Reset the manual pull station using the instructions provided with the station.
Heat Detector
For restorable type detectors, the affected area must be restored to a lower
temperature.
For non-restorable type detectors, the heat detector or the heat detector element
must be replaced.
Smoke Detector
The affected area must be cleared of smoke and the detector should be cleaned.
Waterflow Switches
The activated sprinkler head must be replaced or restored and the sprinkler system
must be restored to its normal condition.
Push down the SYSTEM RESET switch for a minimum of six seconds.
If the trouble buzzer had been silenced, the trouble buzzer will sound again until the
TROUBLE SILENCE switch is returned to the normal position.
If a local energy type of city connection is used, the master box must be reset to clear
the trouble condition.
If a trouble condition still exists, notify the proper personnel for servicing the system
immediately.
