2 Control Panel Functions
The control panel has "normal user" functions, such as
setting the time and date, and viewing the event log. These
functions are covered in the user guide.
The control panel also has "higher level" engineering
functions, such as adding detectors to the system and
changing point addresses. These functions are covered in
this guide.

Supervisor, the number of digits in the passcode must
contain 4 digits. For the access level Engineer, the
number of digits in the passcode must contain 6 digits.
You will need to press Enter (F5) for the login

2.2
After logging on you access the functions in the form of
menu options displayed on the LCD.
The "access level" of your user ID will determine which of
the menu options you have access to.
The access levels are as follows:
Covered in this FireClass Service and Maintenance
guide:
– Engineer: Highest access level. Can access all the
menu options that are not available for the user and
supervisor levels.
Covered in the FireClass User guide:
– User
– Supervisor
For each of the normal user menu options, details of the
access level required are provided in the FireClass User
guide (the required level will be User and Supervisor).
For the engineering menu options, the minimum access
levels required are shown in Table 1 (some normal user
options are included for clarity).

CAUTION
After use, do not forget to "log off" by switching
the Enable Keyswitch to OFF (0), and
removing the key. This will prevent
unauthorised access to the panel.
This applies especially if you have an
engineering access level, as there is a longer
inactivity period before automatic log off.
Automatic Log off
You are automatically logged off after a period
of inactivity.
