FIREFINDER-XLS INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
When an Alarm, Security, Supervisory or Trouble event occurs in the system, the
display enters the Alert or Firefighter's mode automatically. The events are displayed
in priority order (Alarm, Supervisory, Security, Trouble), the local audible sounds and
the appropriate LED blinks. If the event caused notification appliances to sound, the
Audibles On indicator lights. At the bottom of the screen an Acknowledge soft key is
displayed if the highest unacknowledged queue is selected. Pressing this key
acknowledges the event and silences the local audible.
Once all events are acknowledged and audibles are silenced, a Reset System soft
key becomes available in the lower right side of the display. If notification appliances
were active, two additional soft keys become available at the bottom of the screen.
These allow the operator to silence or unsilence the notification appliances (audibles).
When the notification appliances are silenced the Audibles Silenced LED lights.
Press the More Info/+ button to display a screen showing details relating to the
selected event. Additional soft keys appear at the bottom of this screen, including
one that displays a map of the area in which the event occurred, provided this informa-
tion has been programmed using the Zeus tool. The operator can return to the
previous screen by pressing the (–) button, which is adjacent to the More Info/+
button.
Event counts in PMIs and SSDs may differ because SSDs currently display only
"primitive" (individual) events, while a group PMI whose devices are programmed
into groups in Zeus will display only one queue event per group.
When an alarm is detected,
the red Alarm LED blinks,
the System's internal
audible sounds steady, the
Audibles On LED glows
steady, and the alarm event
displays on the screen with a
blinking exclamation mark (!)
See Figure 3-4. The event
listing displays the Event
Custom Message, the Time of
the event occurrence and the
Alarm Event Category (refer to
the Alarm Event: Category Cross
Reference Table below).
