2.10.2 How to Respond to a Mass Notification Fault
If the control panel indicates a fault, the operator can do the following:
1. Press the SILENCE BUZZER
key to silence the panel sounder.
The control panel sends an acknowledge message to the History buffer, installed printers and
annunciators.
2. Check the fault message for an indication of the fault.
Press the MORE INFO soft key to display the MORE INFORMATION screen and view
additional information on the device and possibly preprogrammed text for recommended
action. (Refer to Figure 1.9 on page 11 for an example of the this screen and an explanation of
its fields.)
3. Correct the condition causing the fault. If the fault clears, the control panel sends a Clear Fault
message to the History buffer, installed printers and annunciators.
If all faults clear and no supervisory signals or fire alarms exist, the control panel does the follow-
ing:
• Returns to Normal operation (indicated by the “System Normal” message)
• Sends a “System Normal” message to the panel display, History buffer, installed printers and
annunciators
• Restores faults automatically - even if faults are not acknowledged
