Servicing the System

ALWAYS Ensure the mains is off
BEFORE removing the front cover
#"
The Power light on the control panel is a status
indicator for the battery charging circuit, a steady light
meaning normal. A flashing light means action
required - mains power can still be present.
ALWAYS use a suitable mains test instrument to
confirm that mains power is no longer present.
The transformer and heatsink may be hot during and
after use - do NOT touch.
•
Test the internal sounder, external sounder and strobe
as described on page 19. Perform a Walk Test as
described on page 20. Basic Log events may be viewed
by following the procedure described on page 25.
•
If it is necessary to remove the lid, first switch off the
mains supply to the control panel. Ensure that the
Power light is flashing, then use a suitable mains test
instrument to confirm mains power is no longer present.
•
Enter the 4 digit Engineer code
to access the Programming Menu and disable
,
24 Hour zones via the Engineer code. All the zone lights
will illuminate.
•
Remove the screw covers by inserting a screwdriver
into the screw cover slot and turning anti-clockwise
whilst applying pressure outwards.
•
Unscrew the lid screws and remove the lid.
