closed and locked. After locking, the key MUST be removed and ONLY held by the responsible person and / or the service personnel.
It must under NO CIRCUMSTANCES be held by the user. This equipment will operate safely provided it has been installed correctly in
compliance with the Installation Manual.
It is recommended that the system is serviced frequently. It is customary to arrange a regular maintenance contract with a
competent organisation. (Ask the installation company for recommendations). The system needs a thorough maintenance check
annually at the very minimum.

repair / replacement.

2. THE PURPOSE OF A FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

1. A Fire Alarm System is used to provide an early warning of a fire, so that the property can be evacuated and
the fire extinguished if it can be safely tackled, or the local fire brigade called, according to the company
evacuation procedure.
2. An Alarm can be raised from Smoke or Heat Detectors, or manually by a person operating a Manual Call
Point.
3. To split the building into Zones, each covering a different area of the building. This will indicate which area of
the system is giving the alarm (or fault).
4. To start its sounders, and indicate which zone (area of the building) has signalled the fire. It will also activate
its auxiliary relay.
Fault Monitoring
The panel checks all circuits for line integrity. If a part of the system has a problem, which may affect its
operation, a fault warning must be given by the fire alarm panel (LED & buzzer indication). The fault relay will
also activate.
Disablements
An engineer may be required to work on part of a system, while the system is still active (eg extending a
detection zone). During such circumstances, it would be advisable to disable that zone, so that it will not give
false alarms. Similarly you may wish to disable a zone that has a fault that has not been fixed, or a zone
covering an area with a temporary unusual environment, such as an area which is dusty because of
construction work etc.
Power Supply Equipment- General Description.
The Infinity ID2 has a switch mode power supply capable of supplying 1.2 amps in total. It contains a
current limited output for charging sealed lead acid batteries (3.2 Ah maximum). The PSE is monitored for main
supply failure, the battery not taking a charge and low battery voltage. If the battery voltage drops below
approximately 20VDC (a fault condition), the battery charging current will be turned off , thus stopping charging.
