Keypad Zones

There are three keys on the keypad labelled [F] Fire, [A] Auxiliary and [P]
Panic. These keys are only functional if they have been programmed by
your installer. The installer should indicate which of these keys are
functional by placing a coloured label next to the key symbol on the
keypad door label.
[F] Fire
Holding this key down for two seconds will sound a Fire Alarm. The alarm will
sound pulsing. The keypad will sound three beeps once the panel has
accepted the alarm. An auxiliary warning device is also activated if your
installer has connected it to your system. To silence the alarm, enter a valid
access code.
[A] Auxiliary
Holding this key down for two seconds activates this function if your installer
has programmed it. There is no audible alarm and no lights on the keypad
will come on. When the panel has accepted the alarm, the keypad will sound
a series of beeps. An auxiliary warning device is activated ONLY IF connected
to your system by your installer.
[P] Panic
Holding this key down for two seconds causes a steady tone on your siren or
bell if your installer has programmed this key for audible operation. An auxiliary
warning device is also activated if your installer has connected it to your
system. Enter a valid access code to silence the alarm.
Fire Alarm Operations

On a fire alarm, the bell/siren will sound pulsing. The digital communicator

within the 30 second delay, the communicator will transmit to the monitoring
station.

To silence the bell/siren, press the [#] key. If the alarm is silenced and the
smoke detector is not reset, the alarm will resound after 90 seconds.
