Basic operation
Basic operation includes those tasks that can be performed when the control panel is
in access level 1, the default access level.
Basic operation in access level 1 lets you:
• Acknowledge a system event and silence the internal buzzer
• Cancel an active sounder delay
• Cancel an active fire routing delay
• Perform a control panel LED and internal buzzer test
No other system controls are available at access level 1.
Acknowledging a system event and silencing the internal buzzer
To acknowledge a system event and silence the internal buzzer, press the Panel
Silence button.
A steady Panel Silence LED indicates that the internal buzzer was silenced and that all
current events were acknowledged.
Cancelling an active sounder delay
If a sounder delay is enabled and active, press the Sounder Start/Stop button to
cancel the delay and activate sounders immediately.
A sounder delay is indicated as follows:
• A steady Sounder Delay LED indicates that a delay is enabled.
• A flashing Sounder Start/Stop LED during a fire alarm indicates that the
configured delay is active (sounders are activated when the configured delay
elapses or when the delay is cancelled).
A fire alarm activated by a manual call point overrides any configured delay and
activates sounders immediately.
Cancelling an active fire routing delay
If a fire routing delay is enabled and active, press the Fire Routing Start button to
cancel the delay and activate fire routing immediately.
A fire routing delay is indicated as follows:
• A steady Fire Routing Delay LED indicates that a delay is enabled.
• A flashing Fire Routing Start LED during a fire alarm indicates that the configured
delay is active (fire routing is activated when the configured delay elapses or
when the delay is cancelled).
A fire alarm activated by a manual call point overrides any configured delay and
activates fire routing immediately.
