On the WATE INTERFACE, how do you untrigger the device and allow it to reset itself. I get a solid RED blink every 4 seconds. Everything on the MAIN DISPLAY shows as being reset, no alarms showing.

To untrigger the Ramtech WES3 device and allow it to reset, follow these steps:

1. Identify the triggered call point and use the provided reset key to reset it.
2. If necessary, press and reset a nearer fire point to cancel the alarm.
3. Wait for 5 seconds between pressing and resetting a call point.
4. After the alarm clears, the system enters a 2-minute re-arm period where sirens sound intermittently, and amber LEDs flash in groups of 5.
5. During this period, the alarm cannot be reactivated.
6. Ensure there is no fire hazard before silencing the alarm.

After these steps, the system will be re-armed and ready for use.

@Mr. Anderson The Water Interface does not have a key to reset it. This unit only has an A and B button.

  • Page 6 WES3 Standard Interface The WES3 Standard Interface unit allows you to connect your EN54-25 compliant WES3 network with a host of other building managements and emergency systems on site including access control systems, lifts and emergency lighting. The WES3 Standard Interface is suited to a wide range of projects, be it a new build through to extensive refurbishment projects. The Interface is capable of communicating with most commonly used technologies in existing buildings, construction projects and site cabins.

  • Page 8 WES3 Water Interface The WES3 Water Interface in combination with a water detection sensor is designed to trigger if water is detected along the sensor length (zone). The input triggers a water alert on the WES3 Connect base station and an immediate notification in (where used) the REACT cloud and mobile application.

  • Page 11 Nothing is attached to the input but the output is connected to the shut-off valve. In this scenario the water is detected by 120 1 which triggers the input and raises a “WTR” alert on the WES3 network. This triggers the output on all Water I20’s (in this instance I20 2 and also its own valve at 120 1).
