Fire Alarms - Bosch Fire System User Manual

Fire Alarms

Fire alarms are the highest priority events. When a fire point
activates, your command center emits a pulsating high-pitched fire
tone. Evacuate all occupants and investigate for smoke or fire. The
tone sounds for the time set by your servicing company.
The command center display shows only the point text of the first
point that went into fire alarm. Pressing the [NEXT] manually
displays additional points (if any) that went into alarm. Events
scroll from the oldest to the newest.
Alarm Silence Key
Press the [ALARM SILENCE] key to silence a fire alarm. After
pressing [ALARM SILENCE], the system briefly displays * FIRE
SYSTEM * followed by ALARM SILENCED and then the
number of fire points in alarm (A1 ## FIRE ALARM) in the
area and then the custom text of all the points in alarm in the order
of occurrence. Your system may be programmed so that you
cannot silence some fire alarms until the fire event is cleared. The
example below illustrates the displays one would see with two
points in alarm. See the description of the Detector Reset key and
the Annunciator Reset key for more information.
