Single Zone in Alarm (Cross Zone) Condition

Upon actuation of a single-zone initiating device, a red alarm LED will illuminate to indicate whether
Zone 1 or Zone 2 is in alarm.

In addition to the LED, a single-zone alarm will activate the Alarm Relay; the piezo and NAC #1 will start
sounding. In alarm condition, the piezo will generate a steady tone. The piezo can be silenced by pressing
the trouble silence switch. If the fire is extinguished before a second zone alarm is activated, return the
system to normal standby condition by pressing the reset switch inside the panel and holding it for three
(3) seconds.

Both Zones in Alarm (Cross Zone) Condition

When the first alarm occurs, the panel will function as described above.

Upon the occurrence of a second alarm, the second alarm LED will illuminate, NAC #2 will energize, and
the solenoid valve(s) will energize to activate releasing devices.

Brownout Condition

The total power being provided to the system’s power supply should not exceed the current draw during
fully loaded panel operation. Brownout circuitry annunciates degradation of the incoming AC voltage
supply. A brownout condition is annunciated when the AC power decreases. When the brownout threshold
is reached, the system reacts as if AC power is totally lost:

• Battery backup begins supplying power to operate the control panel
• General Trouble Relay contact transfers
• Green AC Power LED turns off
• Yellow System Trouble LED illuminates
• The piezo will sound one second on, one second off, and repeat until the Trouble is cleared.

When the AC voltage returns or increases above the brownout threshold, the green AC Power LED will
illuminate. The power supply circuitry will return to primary power functions and begin to recharge the
backup battery supply.
