NFS2-3030 Operations Manual — P/N 52546:N1 06/20//2014 45
Mass Notification Supervisory Event Operation of the Control Panel
• Flashes the SUPERVISORY LED (yellow) on the fire panel and any annunciator points
programmed for general supervisory
• Displays a Type Code that indicates the type of supervisory signal being generated
•Displays
MN SUPERVISORY in the upper left corner of the panel display along with information
specific to the device
• Sends a MN Supervisory message to the History buffer, installed printer and annunciators.
• Activates special zone ZF21
• Does not cause any devices programmed for “Resound on Supervisory” to resound
• Does not suppress any fire events regardless of MN/Fire priority programming
• Sends a Supervisory message to the proprietary receiver via the network, if applicable
When an unacknowledged event with a higher priority exists, the control panel retains the indica-
tions of the higher priority event (the message, lit LED, audible tone, etc.), flashing the
SUPERVI-
SORY LED, and sending a Supervisory message to the history buffer, installed printer and
annunciators. If there are silenced alarms (the
SIGNALS SILENCED LED is lighted), a Supervisory
alarm will resound the panel sounder.
Following is a typical MN supervisory message that would appear on a panel display:

2.10.2 How to Respond to an Active MN Supervisory
If the control panel indicates a MN Supervisory condition, the operator can do the following:
1. Press the ACKNOWLEDGE soft key to acknowledge the MN Supervisory event, steady the
SUPERVISORY LED, and silence the panel sounder. An acknowledge message is sent to the
remote annunciators, history buffers, installed printers, and CRT-2s
2. Press the MORE INFORMATION 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 1.8 on page 19 for an example of this screen and an explanation of its
fields.)
3. Investigate and correct the condition causing the Supervisory.
4. For tracking MN Supervisory events: If the supervisory condition was initiated by a device
that is programmed with an MN supervisory type code that tracks, the panel will return to
Systems Normal once the condition has been corrected.
For latching MN Supervisory events: If the supervisory condition was initiated by a device
that is programmed with an MN supervisory type code that latches upon activation or a
General MN Supervisory event occurs, press the SYSTEM RESET soft key to clear the event.
