System overview and operation
1.2 FireShield Technical Reference Manual
RESET
Operating mode: Initiates a panel reset.
Programming mode: Selects the next
setting for the current option.
SIGNAL
SILENCE
& DRILL
Alarm mode: Silences active notification
appliances. Pressing Signal Silence a
second time turns NACs back on. The Signal
Silenced LED indicates when the panel is in
alarm and operating with notification
appliances turned off. Visual appliances may
or may not turn off when Signal Silence is
pressed depending on panel programming.
Normal mode: Activates the drill function.
Turns notification appliances on according to
the panel programming but does not place
the panel in alarm or activate the alarm
relay. Pressing Drill a second time turns off
the drill function.
Programming mode: Selects the previous
setting of the current program option.
PANEL
SILENCE
Operating mode: Silences the panel and
FSRSI sounders during an active trouble,
supervisory, or alarm event.
Programming mode: Saves the program
setting.
(3) Indicating Device Circuits (IDCs) LEDs and controls
LED/button Description
Alarm LED On steady when an alarm input device is
activated.
Trouble LED On steady when there is a wiring fault on the
circuit. Double-flashes when the circuit is
disabled. Fast-flashes, during walk test,
when the IDC is resetting.
Supervisory /
Monitor LED
(SUP/MON) On steady when a supervisory input device
is activated. Stays on until panel is reset.
Also flashes when active if programmed as a
monitor zone. Monitor zone programming
option is not approved for use in Canada.
DISABLE
Operating mode: Renders an IDC
inoperative. A disabled circuit can not initiate
a change in panel state. A disabled IDC’s
Trouble LED double-flashes. If pressed
when an IDC is active, it has no effect on the
panel’s current state but no further activity on
that IDC will be reported. Disabled IDCs
remain disabled after a system reset.
Walk test mode: Selects an IDC to place it
into or remove it from walk test mode.
Programming mode: Selects an IDC so
that settings can be viewed or changed.
(4) Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) LEDs and
controls
LED/button Description
Trouble LED On steady when there's a wiring fault on
circuit. Double-flashes when circuit is disabled.
DISABLE
Operating mode: Used to render an NAC
inoperative. A disabled NAC trouble LED
double-flashes. If pressed when an NAC is
active, notification appliances remain active.
Once silenced, a disabled NAC does not
resound unless enabled. Disabled NACs
remain disabled after a system reset.
Programming mode: Selects an NAC so that
settings can be viewed or changed.
(5) Common system LEDs
LED Description
Alarm On steady when there is an active alarm
event on any IDC.
Trouble Flashes when there's a fault with a monitored
circuit or system component, when a circuit is
disabled, or when panel is in walk test mode.
Supervisory On steady when there is an active supervisory
event on any IDC.
Power On when the panel has AC power.
Disable Double-flashes when there is a disabled
circuit, FSRRM, alarm relay, or FSDACT.
Pressing Disable also places the panel in the
trouble state.
Annunciator
Trouble On steady when there is a communication
failure between the panel and a remote
annunciator. Also places the panel in the
trouble state.
Battery
Trouble Flashes for voltage supervisory or charger
trouble. Steady means placement trouble.
Also places the panel in the trouble state.
Ground Fault On steady during an active ground fault. Also
places the panel in the trouble state.
Walk Test Flashes when performing an audible walk
test. Steady indicates a silent walk test. Also
places the panel in the trouble state.
Signal
Silenced On steady indicates that NAC circuits are
turned off but the panel is still in alarm.
(6) LCD display when FSDACT is installed
Notes on LEDs: During an alarm condition, all flashing
LEDs, regardless of their function, go steady.
When NAC or IDC pairs are configured for Class A operation,
trouble conditions may be indicated by the Trouble LED on
either NAC or IDC in the pair.
