System Events - Bosch Security Systems User Manual

System Events

Your system responds to four types of events. If more than one event
occurs, your system sorts them into one of four groups. The groups
(highest priority first) are: Fire Alarms, Burglary Alarms, Fire Troubles, and
Non-Fire Troubles.
Fire Alarms
Fire alarms are the highest priority events. When a fire point activates, your
keypad emits a warble tone that is on for 1 sec., then briefly off
(repeatedly). The tone sounds for the time set by your security company.
Evacuate all occupants and investigate for smoke or fire. Ensure all
occupants know the difference between the burglary tone and the fire tone.
The keypad display shows the first point that went into alarm. Press the [ ]
key to manually display additional points (if any) that went into alarm.
Events scroll from the oldest to the newest.
Burglary Alarms
Burglary alarms are the second priority. When a burglary point activates
while your system is turned on, your keypad emits a constant warble tone.
The tone sounds for the time set by your security company.
The keypad display shows each burglary point that went into alarm. Press
the [ ] key to manually scroll the list if you wish. Events scroll from the
oldest to the newest.
Fire Trouble Events
When a fire trouble (such as a loose wire) occurs, your keypad emits a
trouble tone, which is a warble tone that is on briefly, followed by a pause,
followed by the warble tone (repeatedly).
The keypad displays the SYSTEM TROUBLE message. See Checking
System Troubles (on page 23) to determine the nature of the trouble.
Non-Fire Trouble Events
When a trouble event such as a power failure occurs, your keypad emits a
trouble tone, which is a warble tone that is on briefly, followed by a pause,
followed by the warble tone (repeatedly).
The keypad displays the SYSTEM TROUBLE message. See Checking
System Troubles (on page 23) to determine the nature of the trouble.
