Switch Functions
2.2.1 Key-switch
The key-switch is used to enable 
and disable the operation of the 
function switches if switch 1 on 
DIP switch SW1 has been placed 
in the OFF position.
To enable the Acknowledge, 
Silence, Drill and Reset function 
switches, insert key into key-
switch located at the top right 
corner of the LCD-80F. Make 
certain the key is inserted 
completely before attempting to 
turn it. Turn the key clockwise 
until it stops. Leave the key inserted while pressing the function 
switches. When finished with the function switches, turn key-switch 
counterclockwise to disable function switches.
Note that the key-switch should normally be in the disabled position 
(fully counterclockwise), with the key removed and access to the key 
restricted to authorized personnel only. Do not leave the key 
unattended in the LCD-80F.
2.2.2 Acknowledge/Step
When the Acknowledge/Step switch is pressed and released, the 
LCD-80F sends an Acknowledge command to the control panel. 
Pressing the Acknowledge switch silences the local piezo sounder, 
the sounders located in all other system annunciators and the 
sounder located on the Fire Alarm Control Panel's main circuit 
board. Only one press is necessary regardless of the number of new 
alarms, troubles or supervisory signals.
An acknowledge message is also sent to the printer and the history 
files in the FACP. Multiple active events (alarms, troubles, 
supervisories) are scrolled on the display at a one second rate, but 
may be held for sequential display by pressing and holding the 
Acknowledge switch.
