10 Using the Control Panel
View Events
The events represent the various conditions signaled by the panel and have the following order of
importance: alarm, pre-alarm, fault, early warning, bypass, test and monitor. The events that appear
on the control panel and Repeater displays may have been generated by other control panels in the
network.
If several events of the same type occur (e.g. three faults), only the first event will be shown on the
display. The system displays different real-time events in the order of importance (e.g.: if the system
is dealing with three fault events when a pre-alarm event occurs, the pre-alarm will take priority).
Control panel RESET operations clear all the events from the display, however, all events will be saved
to the log and can be viewed on the control panel.
