The panel’s fault output will also activate (provided it hasn’t been disabled).
- Page 10 CFP 2/4/8 ZONE CONVENTIONAL FIRE ALARM PANEL DIS BLEMENTS Certain fire alarm panel functions can be temporarily disabled (i.e. switched off) to suit certain conditions. For example, if there is a risk of a false alarm in a zone, e.g. from vehicle exhaust smoke in a loading bay, it is possible for the user to disable that zone during the risk period and enable it again afterwards.
- Page 11 CFP 2/4/8 ZONE CONVENTIONAL FIRE ALARM PANEL To avoid confusion, during the selection process any light in the table of options that was showing a fault condition will have the fault indication turned off. After the selection process is complete, fault indication will be restored unless that option was disabled during the selection process.
- Page 12 CFP 2/4/8 ZONE CONVENTIONAL FIRE ALARM PANEL NOTES ON DEL YS What is a delay? A delay can be programmed into the fire alarm panel to postpone the activation of the alarm sounders and other outputs for a predetermined length of time. The delay period gives a responsible person time to investigate the cause of an alarm, usually in areas which are prone to false alarm (such as vehicle exhaust smoke in a loading bay) before the building is evacuated.
