FOREWORD
FOR THE INSTALLER:
Comply strictly with current standards governing the installation of electrical systems and security systems, and with the
manufacturer’s directions given in the manuals supplied with the products.
Provide the user with full information on using the system installed and on its limitations, pointing out that there are different levels
of security performance that will need to suit the user’s requirements within the constraints of the specific applicable standards.
See that the user looks through the warnings given herein.
FOR THE USER:
Check the system’s operation thoroughly at regular intervals, making sure the equipment can be armed and disarmed properly.
Make sure the system receives proper routine maintenance, employing the services of specialist personnel who meet the
requirements prescribed by current regulations.
Ask your installer to check that the system suits changing operating conditions (e.g. changes in the extent of the areas to be
protected, change in access methods, etc...).
-------------------------------
This device has been designed, built and tested with the utmost care and attention, adopting test and inspection procedures in
accordance with current legislation. Full compliance of the working specifications is only achieved in the event the device is used
solely for its intended purpose, namely:
The device is not intended for any use other than the above and hence its correct functioning in such cases cannot be assured.
Consequently, any use of the manual in your possession for any purpose other than those for which it was compiled - namely for
the purpose of explaining the product’s technical features and operating procedures - is strictly prohibited.
Production processes are closely monitored in order to prevent faults and malfunctions. However, the componentry adopted is
subject to an extremely modest percentage of faults, which is nonetheless the case with any electronic or mechanical product.
Given the intended use of this item (protection of property and people), we invite you to adapt the level of protection offered by the
system to suit the actual situation of risk (allowing for the possibility of impaired system operation due to faults or other problems),
while reminding you that there are specific standards for the design and production of systems intended for this kind of application.
We hereby advise you (the system’s operator) to see that the system receives regular routine maintenance, at least in
accordance with the provisions of current legislation, and also check on as regular a basis as the risk involved requires
that the system in question is operating properly, with particular reference to the control unit, sensors, sounders, dialler(s)
and any other device connected. You must let the installer know how well the system seems to be operating, based on the
results of periodic checks, without delay.
Work involved in the design, installation and maintenance of systems incorporating this product should be performed only by
personnel with suitable skills and knowledge required to work safely so as to prevent any accidents. It is vital that systems be installed
in accordance with current legislation. The internal parts of certain equipment are connected to the mains and therefore there is a risk
of electrocution when maintenance work is performed inside without first disconnecting the primary and emergency power supplies.
Certain products include batteries, rechargeable or otherwise, as an emergency backup power supply. If connected incorrectly, they
may cause damage to the product or property, and may endanger the operator (explosion and fire).
According to Directive 2012/19/EU on the Waste of Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), it is here specified that
this Electrical-Electromechanic Device started to be commercialized after 13th August 2005, and it shall be disposed
of separately from ordinary waste products.

1. USER INTERFACE
TA4000 controls the devices of a fire detection and fire alarm system, monitoring up to 45 different zones: 4 conventional
ones, 1 manual call point (MCP) zone and 40 connected to up to 2 optional loop modules.
It is compatible with the EXTING extinguishing module and with the MDGSME SMS sender module.
The control unit can be commanded from the frontal control panel (or from a connected TAREPEATER keypad):
All states and functions of the control unit are shown and managed by the LCD and by the coloured indication LEDs. The
available control buttons provide for easy configuration and control operations.
• The LCD backlight colour changes according to the status of the control unit:
Standard functioning
GREEN
Fault/anomaly indication
YELLOW
Alarm indication
RED
Setup/programming
WHITE
• Fault (or alarm) indications include, at the bottom right, the number of the shown fault (or alarm) and the total number
of faults (or alarms) detected by the control unit. 001/003 = fault (or alarm) 1 of 3. The alarm screen also reports, at
the bottom left, the number of the last issued alarm.
• Fault indications take priority over the standard functioning screen. Fire alarm indications take priority over all other screens
and, if they take the place of active fault or configuration screens, they can be temporarily hidden by pressing ESC.
A new alarm or idling for 10 seconds brings back the alarm screen to the foreground.
The indication LEDs have the following meaning:
LED name Colour Indication
POWER Green 230 V power ON
SILENCE Yellow Silenced sounders
PRE-ALARM Red Alarm check+prealarm ongoing
INVEST. DELAY Yellow Acknowledgement timer or Investigation timer
ongoing
DAY / NIGHT Yellow Day / Night mode

2. ACCESS LEVELS
The control unit functions are assigned to three different access levels:
• Level 1 (public) – no password needed;
• Level 2 (user) – accessed using the dedicated key;
• Level 3 (maintenance/programming) – only accessibile to authorized personnel.
Level 1 grants access to all functions freely available to everyone, such as those for the general monitoring of the control unit.
Level 2 holds the setup menu.
To go back to level 1, turn and remove the key. If a control unit at level 2 receives no inputs from the front panel for 15
minutes, the LCD backlight will start blinking and the last row of the display will show the “Panel on level 2” message.
Pressing any key makes the message disappear for 15 more minutes, but the screen will keep blinking until the panel
goes back to level 1.
3. MENU MAP
* These menu entries only appear if the corresponding modules are available. For loop modules (marked here with the grey background), an additional
menu lets you declare which loop you want to affect.
4. MENÙ AND FUNCTION BROWSING
The menu can be used to access several functions, divided in sub-menus a shown in the Menu MAp (3).
Press to select the next entry, for the previous one.
If the ▼symbol appears, press while on the last entry to go to the following screen.
If the ▲symbol appears, press while on the first entry to go to the previous screen.
ENT enters the selected entry or sub-menu, ESC goes back to the previous menu.
5. LEVEL 2 MENU
5.1 Disablements
LEVEL 2 MENU ►DISABLEMENTS
Each function in this menu can exclude a different kind of element (zones, modules, outputs, single devices).
Fault and alarm indications from the excluded elements will be ignored, excluded outputs won’t activate but the control unit
will keep monitoring the presence of the elements. An X at the right of this function indicates the presence of at least one
excluded element.
