What to do in case of an alarm

1. Message type
2. Description of the location of the triggering detector
3. Address (logical zone and subaddress) of the detector which triggered the alarm
4. Number of detectors which triggered the alarm
5. Message number
6. Number of groups that have triggered a fire alarm and outputs that are activated

Select Acknowledge to start the investigation time (depending on the configuration). During this time, check the message in the place where the detector generating the alarm is located to ensure it is correct.

If you determine during the verification that the alarm is genuine, either trigger an alarm manually by pressing Manual alarm or by activating a manual call point. The evacuation is starting and the transmission device to the fire department is activated.

If you recognize a false alarm, select Reset and log in to the panel to prevent the activation of the transmission device and signaling devices.

Note: If the investigation time passes by without any further user input (alarm trigger or reset) the evacuation and the transmission to the fire department are activated automatically.

Evacuation

Press the evacuation button to open the list with all available evacuation zones.
To search for a specific zone, enter the number of a group of notification appliances and press .

The background colors of the groups have the following meaning:

• Red: Groups which are actively being controlled in case of an alarm
• Fuchsia: Groups which are actively being controlled without a real alarm, e.g. in case of a fire drill
• Green: Groups which are not active
• Yellow: Groups in fault or disabled, no control is possible.

Select the required group to start or stop the evacuation of this zone immediately. Use and to scroll through the list. The group entries change their background color according to their current state.

Select All On to control all evacuation groups or All Off to stop the activation of all groups at a time.

Resetting an alarm

1. Press Acknowledge.
2. Press Signals off.
   The sounders and/or optical signaling devices are switched off.
3. Press Reset.

If a message is marked with an R, the resetting process is not yet complete for this element.
To reset a manual call point, use the reset key or replace the glass window.
To reset an automatic detector: If there is still smoke in the detection chamber please ventilate.
On the next alarm message, all signaling devices that have been switched off are switched back on automatically.

What to do in case of a fault

1. Message type
2. Element type (corresponding to the second yellow fault status LED)
3. Address (logical zone and subaddress) of the element which triggered the fault
4. Message number
5. Description of the location of the triggering element
6. Number of elements which triggered the fault

In case that the panel is showing a fault message with yellow background in combination with a yellow shining LED and the fault LED , ,, , or corresponding to the element type (2) in the fault message:

1. Press Acknowledge to silence the buzzer
2. Press Reset.

Programmable elements

Function keys

There are three functions keys which are freely programmable with frequently used functions of the panel. If a function key is active it is marked with a green bar. Please ask your installer to enter the configured function of the respective key here:

Alarm and fault status LEDs

There are two status LEDs which are programmable for a self-defined alarm and self-defined fault/disablement. Please ask your installer to describe the configured device and status of the respective LED here:

Change time and date

To change the date and time of the panel press - Further functions - Change date / time and enter the correct values via the keypad.

Day- and night mode

The manner in which an incoming alarm is handled depends on whether the system is in day or night mode.

Night mode has the highest security level. Depending on the configuration, the alarm message is generally transmitted to the fire department without a delay. Signaling devices and transmission devices to the fire department or fire protection systems are activated.

If a panel is set to day mode, it is possible to delay the transmission of the first alarm signal to prevent false alarms. Therefore an alarm must be acknowledged within a certain time. The transmission device to the fire department is not activated in this case. During the delay, the cause of the alarm message can be checked within a configured investigation time to ensure it is correct.

If the investigation time passes by without any further user input (alarm trigger or reset) the transmission to the fire department is activated automatically.

The following symbols on the status bar show which mode the panel is switched to. In the case of networked panels, a night-/day combination icon is displayed on panels in night mode, if at least one panel in the network is in day mode.

		Standalone	Network
	Night mode	Panel is in night mode	All networked panels in the network scope are in night mode
	Day mode	Panel is in day mode	-
	Night-/day combination	-	Panel is in night mode but at least one other panel in the network scope is in daymode

To switch between day- and night mode press the current symbol in the status bar and select either Switch to day mode or Switch to night mode.

Switching off internal buzzer

1. Press to temporarily switch off the internal buzzer.

Display history

In the history log, all data about particular events or device types is stored sorted by date and time. To display only particular data, filters can be set.
