Fire Alarms
Fire alarms are the highest priority events. When a fire
point activates, your keypad emits a pulsating high-
pitched fire tone. Evacuate all occupants and
investigate for smoke or fire. Ensure that all occupants
know the difference between the burglary tone and the
fire tone. The tone sounds for the time set by your
security company.
Silencing Fire Alarms
Entering a personal passcode with the proper authority
level silences a fire alarm and disarms the system if it
was armed.
The system will now display *
Alarm Silenced*
on the
second line and
Clear Display>
appears on the fourth.
Then the number of points in alarm (
# FIRE
ALARMS
) and then the area text appears (
AREA 1
NAME TEXT
) followed by the custom text of all the
points in alarm (
SMOKE DETECTOR
), in the order
of occurrence.
If there is more than one point causing an alarm, the
display will show each point for three seconds before
showing the next one.
When the last alarm is shown, the next display is the
idle text. The cycle is repeated until
COMMAND 4 is
pressed.

Your system may be programmed so that you cannot
silence some fire alarms until the fire event clears.
Entering
COMMAND 4 clears the scrolling point text
from the display.
The *
Alarm Silenced*
message will continue to
alternate with idle text as a reminder that it is still
possible to view the text of the points in alarm by using
the View Memory function. See
VIEW MEMORY ?
(Command 40) for more information.
To clear the event memory and remove the *
Alarm
Silenced*
message from the display, press the
Clear
Display>
soft key.
The display will show the instructions for clearing the
message. Enter a valid passcode and press the
Clear>
soft key.
If a fire trouble still exists after acknowledging the
alarm, the display shows
Fire Trouble
.
To remove this display, the fire point(s) must be
returned to normal. If you wish to review cleared
events, use COMMAND 40.
