Main Display Buttons
System Reset Button
Signal Silence Button
Fire Drill Button
Acknowledge Button
General Alarm Button (or Info button for single stage system)
Auxiliary Disconnect Button
Lamp Test Button
Buzzer Silence Button
The System Reset button resets the fire alarm control panel and all circuits.
Pressing the Signal Silence button when the panel is in alarm deactivates any silenceable signal
devices in the fire alarm system. Non-Silenceable signal devices are unaffected. If you press the
Signal Silence button a second time, or if there is a subsequent alarm, the signals will re-sound. If
the panel has been configured with a Signal Silence Inhibit timer, this button will not work until the
timer times out. This button also does not work if you have pressed the Fire Drill button.In a two
stage system, if the Auto General Alarm timer has timed out, this button also performs the same
function as the Acknowledge button.
Pressing the Fire Drill button will simulate a fire alarm by activating the fire alarm signals without
transmitting an alarm to the central station. To cancel the fire drill, press the button again. If the fire
alarm system goes into a real alarm while you are performing a fire drill, this button will not turn off
the signals or activate any programmed relays.
If the panel is not configured for two-stage operation, this button is not active. If the panel is
configured for two-stage operation, pressing the Acknowledge button while the Auto General Alarm
timer is timing (there is an alarm in the panel, but it is still in the first stage), the timer is cancelled
and the amber Acknowledge LED illuminates steadily.
If the panel is not configured for two-stage operation, this button does nothing. If the panel is
configured for two-stage operation, pressing the General Alarm button immediately sends the
panel into second stage general alarm. It will also re-activate the signals if they have been silenced
during general alarm. The general alarm condition remains active until the panel is reset.
Pressing the Auxiliary Disconnect button activates the auxiliary disconnect function. Pressing the
button again de-activates this function.
Pressing and holding the Lamp Test button causes all front panel LEDs to illuminate and sounds
the buzzer. Use this button to test that all LEDs in the main display are working. If you hold the
Lamp Test button for more than ten seconds, the Trouble LED will illuminate.
Pressing the Buzzer Silence button while the buzzer is sounding silences the buzzer. The buzzer
will resound if there is a subsequent event. Pressing the button when the buzzer is not sounding
has no effect.
