1 OPERATING MODES
The FAP54 control panel has two operating modes: scanning phase and programming phase.
When FAP54 is powered on, the scanning phase will be always started and maintained until the installer or the user
carries out an intervention.
2 SCANNING PHASE
In this operating mode the control panel monitors the detectors scattered in the field and manages the following
events:
alarm
general fault
field fault
maintenance
exclusion
events related to slave control panels (if the control panel is set as master)
generic events (not classified into any of the previous categories)
Normally, if there are not active events, the display on the control panel front side shows the following message:
The event indicator is shown when at least one event has occurred since the last time a level 2 password has been
inserted. If no event has occurred, a blinking asterisk will be displayed instead of the event indicator.
If the control panel has not been programmed yet, the display shows the message “MONITORING NOT POSSIBLE”.
If an event occurs, the display shows the event, along with the cumulative counters for each type of event on the right-
hand side.
Should more events occur, the display shows, in addition to the event counter increase, the first event occurred at the
top and the most recent alarm (if present) at the bottom.

4 GENERAL FAULT DISPLAY
The display of a general fault depends on the type of event occurred and it usually allows the immediate recognition of
the equipment or part of the control panel in faulty condition which can negatively affect the system operation.
In any case, the display shows each event with all the data needed for the equipment identification (e.g. address) and
the related error code.
Example:
Note that some type of fault is notified with a self explaining message, allowing the user to immediately understand
what is going on. Other types of fault are notified instead with a message and an error code. For a detailed
explanation of these codes, please refer to the appendixes.
5 FIELD FAULT DISPLAY
The display of a field fault depends on the type of fault.
Usually, a field fault affects a detection circuit or a device connected to this circuit.
A field fault due to a device is notified as follows:
The field fault can affect also the detection circuit and occur, for instance, because of a short circuit or when the circuit
is configured in loop mode and the loop breaks.
In any case, a self-explaining message will be displayed. Below is reported an example of a field fault of type “short
circuit” affecting circuit 1.

8 SLAVE CONTROL PANEL DISPLAY
This section is valid only if the control panel is configured as a MASTER and it is connected to a network of SLAVE
control panels.
Any event occurring on a SLAVE control panel is notified to the MASTER control panel, which shows it by using two
rows, according to the following rules:
•the first row shows the address and name of the SLAVE control panel affected by the event,
•the second row equals the first row used by the SLAVE control panel to show the event on its own display
For instance, suppose that the SLAVE control panel with address 50 and named “HANGAR” is affected by a
maintenance event on a smoke detector.
This SLAVE control panel, then, shows the following message on its display:
The MASTER control panel to whom the SLAVE control panel is connected shows the following information:
This message says to the user that the smoke detector, located on circuit 1 in the SLAVE 50 and having the address
18, requests a maintenance intervention.
Moreover, it says that the SLAVE control panel with address 50 is also named “HANGAR”.
Alarms, faults and maintenance events occurring on a SLAVE control panel are displayed on the MASTER control
panel’s display according to the aforementioned rule (address and name of the SLAVE control panel plus the first row
of the event shown in the SLAVE control panel).
The events of exclusion/inclusion occurring on a SLAVE control panel are handled in a different way.
If a SLAVE control panel is affected by at least one exclusion, the MASTER control panel shows a message like this:
This message indicates the number of elements currently excluded on the SLAVE control panel (in the example,
there are 7 active exclusions on the SLAVE control panel).
If all the currently excluded elements are re-included, the above message is not shown anymore.
In the case the user wants to receive further information on the events occurring in the SLAVE control panel (for
instance, the name of the point requiring maintenance, or detailed information on the excluded elements), it is
necessary to get to the event log of the SLAVE control panel.
The event log of the SLAVE control panel can be accessed directly from the MASTER control panel’s display. In order
to do this, it is necessary to view any event of the SLAVE control panel of interest in the MASTER control panel’s
display and then press OK.
By pressing OK again when the log of the SLAVE panel is shown in the MASTER panel’s screen, a menu (protected
by level 2 password) is shown which allows the MASTER to send commands (e.g. GLOBAL RESET,
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, SILENCE/REARM SIREN, etc.) to the SLAVE panel.
For further information on this topic, please refer to the programming manual.

>SP000
NOTE - consider the following condition:
•the panel is a MASTER and it is connected to one or more SLAVE panels
•the MASTER contains local events ( (there are folders other than SP which are not empty)
•the SP folder is not empty and the events are all generated by the same SLAVE panel
•the MASTER is currently showing events from the SP folder
Under the aforementioned conditions, if the SLAVE panel undergoes a GLOBAL RESET the MASTER switches
temporarily to the following screen:
After 20 seconds, the MASTER shows the events of the first not empty local folder.
9 GENERIC EVENTS DISPLAY
The folder of generic events is suited for events which must be displayed but cannot be classified in any of the
previous categories.
They are:
Events of block/resume of actuations for output modules
Events related to modem connections (incoming calls, outgoing calls for alarms/faults/maintenance)
10 CONTROL PANEL FUNCTIONAL STATES
NORMAL: all the indicators are normally OFF but the following LEDs:
AC: steady green if the control panel is powered on by the main power, blinking green if the control panel is
powered on by batteries
LEDs of the “EXCLUSIONS” group, if there are active exclusions
TEST SYSTEM if there is a system test in progress
ALARM: when an alarm occurs, the control panel switches to the ALARM state and the following statements are true:
•the FIRE ALARM LED (located on the topmost left side of the panel) starts blinking (if the siren output is not
activated) or is steady ON (if the siren output is activated);
•the ALARM relay is activated
•if the siren output is activated, the SIREN relay is activated as well
•all the actuator modules are activated (if properly programmed) according to the alarm level reached by the
panel (alarm 1 = alarm with siren output OFF, alarm 2 = alarm with siren output ON)
•the control panel starts emitting a continuous whistle and the display notifies the user about the alarmed
device/s.
FAULT: in the case of fault, the control panel will emit an intermitting whistle; moreover, the yellow LED of the
General Fault indicator plus another LED related to specific faults (e.g. System, Battery, Siren and Ground
Dispersion) will be turned ON. The display will notify the user about the fault.
To stop the whistle press ACK.
Once the fault has been solved press RESET.

FAP User 11
11 FIRST LEVEL OPERATIONS
ACK: by pressing ACK the control panel buzzer will be silenced and the event displayed will be acknowledged.
ALARM SILENCING: by pressing SILENCE / RESTART SIREN the active device (plates or sirens) sound will be
temporarily stopped. The yellow LED associated with the SILENCED SIREN will turn on.
To restore the sound, press again the SILENCE / RESTART SIREN.
The yellow LED associated with SILENCED SIREN will turn off.
RESET: press RESET to restore the control panel normal operation. All the indicators (LEDs, displays) will be
disabled and all the related functions restored.
DISPLAY DESCRIPTION: the control panel display is composed of 4 lines. The first two lines indicate initially the first
alarm or the last non alarm event occurred, whereas the other two lines show the last alarm occurred (if any alarm
exists).
In order to move back and forth on the list of events belonging to the currently selected category, press the buttons <
and >. The currently selected event will be shown on the first two rows of the display.
The currently selected category is the one correspondent to the position of the event type selector >on the right-hand
side of the screen.
In order to change the event category operate on the buttons ∧and ∨.
The counters referring to the type of events, located on the right-hand side of the display, are:
ZA (Zones in alarm): number of zones in alarm
GF (General Fault): number of general faults
FF (Field Fault): number of field faults
EX (Exclusion): number of exclusions in progress without distinguishing among circuits,
zones, groups or devices
GP (Group of points in alarm): number of groups of points in alarm
GZ (Group of zones in alarm): number of groups of zones in alarm
MN (Maintenance): number of devices requiring maintenance
SP (Slave control panel events): number of alarm events + field fault events + general fault events +
maintenance events occurred on the slave control panels
GE (Generic events): number of generic events (block/resume actuations and modem
connections)

When the control panel is monitoring the field it is possible to include or exclude circuits, zones, groups, points,
functions or equipment connected to the control panel without switching over to the programming phase.
The access to this menu requires the level 2 password, if enabled.
By pressing INCLUDE/EXCLUDE, the following menu will be displayed:
By selecting 2, the following menu will be displayed:
By selecting 3, the following menu will be displayed:
The item related to inclusion and exclusion of SLAVE control panels is only shown if the control panel is configured as
MASTER.
By selecting 4, the following menu will be displayed:
After selecting the required option, the inclusion or exclusion operation will be carried out in the same way and with
the same menus used during programming.
Please, refer to the Programming manual for further information.
NOTE: if a circuit is included or excluded, the relevant detection line will be powered off in the case of exclusion and
powered on as soon as the circuit is included again.
The power-on of the line could last long (even a few minutes) and during this time the control panel does NOT carry
out any monitoring of the field. Therefore, possible alarms occurring on other lines during this time will not be
detected.
In order to prevent any problems due to alarms detected by a detector/module and not promptly accepted by the
control panel, the inclusion/exclusion menu is considered a shortcut for the corresponding programming menu.
Therefore, the password needed to access this menu is the one required to access the programming menu (level 3
password). As a result, if the passwords are enabled and the user previously entered a password of a lower level, the
suitable password will be requested.
