INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this manual is to explain how to use the
INSPIRE E10/E15 Fire Alarm Control panel’s - Control
and Indicating Equipment CIE (hereafter also referred
to as the ‘panel’ or ‘control panel’). It documents how
to use the built-in touch screen and push button
controls to access various functions and/or carry out
regular mandatory procedures required by the local
fire industry regulations. Helpful descriptions and tips
are also provided to assist the user in understanding
the status information provided by the Control Panel’s
touch screen and light indicators. The INSPIRE
E10/E15 Control Panels are designed to meet the
requirements of EN 542 and EN 544.
DISPLAY AND CONTROLS
The control panel's touch screen display and LED
indications allow the user to review the system status
and with appropriate user PIN access perform tasks
in accordance with the requirements of the local fire
regulations.
TOUCH SCREEN DISPLAY
The panel’s user interface is a large 10” colour touch
screen display (1280 × 800 pixels) for primary system
status, indication and control.
PANEL BUZZER
This internal panel buzzer provides an audible alert to
the authorised user to take immediate action whenever
the system detects any condition, such as a fire or fault
event. It provides a continuous or intermittent sound
depending on the type of event.
The SILENCE BUZZER control button is used to silence
(mute) the internal buzzer after it starts sounding
following a Fire/Fault event. This control is available at
all access levels without a need for user password.

Day or Night Mode operation
This is a Toggle function, if configured for your system, will allow a change between Day Mode and Night Mode.
The Day Mode is made active on preselected days of the week over preselected time period. Outside the Day
Mode the Night mode is automatically made active.
When the Day mode is active the ‘Delay Active’ LED is lit and the LED is Off during Night Mode
The switch between Day mode and Night mode is possible using the Toggle button during Normal
'SAFE' condition. During event condition such as with an active Fault or Disablement event, then this
toggle functionality is accessible using the menu, see "Day/Night Mode Settings" on page 29..
Day mode
During the Day Mode and upon detection of a Fire the activation of alarm output is delayed to allow the incidence
to be investigated. When the Verification Delay button is pressed then the initial investigation delay ends and
verification delay starts.
Any active delay can be stopped by selecting the button.
Night Mode
In the Night Mode the sensors operate normally and upon detection of fire the alarm outputs are activated
without delay.
At any time to toggle between Day Mode and Night Mode see page 30.
VdS default configuration
The Day mode may need to be enabled manually. A VdS approved default configuration will cause auto
delay to be deactivated on entry into Night mode, so manual intervention is required to activate Day
mode.

PASSWORD ENTRY TO CONTROLS
Many of the touch screen control buttons and physical push buttons control require password entry. Each
on-site authorised user will have a unique PIN configured by the service organisation to access controls at the
Control panel. This allows authorised users to control the fire alarm system during normal, fault, disablement, test
and fire conditions.
Once User Level 2 PIN is entered and subsequently if the controls are not used for 5 minutes’ duration, then the
panel will log out of Access level 2 and returns to Access Level 1. The duration is configurable and can be changed
during commissioning to site specific needs.
When you operate a control then you are likely to be prompted to enter a password:
01 Select a Role from the drop down, choose Level 2 .
