1.2.1 LCD Primary Status Indicator
The LCD is the panel’s primary status indicator. This allows all event
information, required to be displayed to meet the requirements of
EN54-2 for any system condition or detected event, to be displayed
on the LCD and in a clear and concise way.
When the panel is in the status Normal condition the LCD displays
the panel name or the authorised servicing company name/logo
and contact details, such as a telephone land line/mobile contact
number, etc. The panel in Status Normal mode is shown at right,
with the panel’s model name (default) displayed on the LCD.
1.2.1.1 Non-quiescent Status Display
When the system enters a re or fault condition, i.e. it is no longer in a
quiescent condition, the LCD Status Normal screen is replaced with a
display containing all the required information describing the nature
and location of the detected event. In the event that more than one
event has been detected, some of the control keys (keyholder access
only) can be used to scroll down the list of all current events to review
those ‘hidden’ from view (not all events are required by EN54-2 to
be displayed at user access Level 1, only the rst and last event).
FIRE EVENT
If the detected alarm event is from a loop device the rst zone in
alarm, the latest zone in alarm and the time each zone went into the
re condition is displayed. Also, the total number of zones in alarm is
given. For re events, the information on the LCD is supported by the
lighting of the appropriate zone re LED (if tted) and the FIRE LED.
The buzzer pulses and the MUTE BUZZER function key ashes.
An example of a typical re indication is provided at right. Press the
key to display details of the device that raised the alarm. See
Section 2.1.1 What do I Need to do? for details on how to proceed
when a re condition has been detected.
